Well looky there! A brand new year!

Well, it's a brand new year. Well into it in fact and I'm just now getting back to this blog thing. What can I say? I've been busy....Okay, okay! I'll admit I've also been a bit (!) lazy as well.

Seems the holiday's gave me a good excuse to do something else other than sit in front of a computer most of the day...and I LIKED IT!

Then, as those of you who might read this and live here in N. E. Texas also know, the December deep freeze has been followed by a spring like January with outside temperatures soring into the seventies. It's got my slightly greenish thumbs itching. I've even bought some cool weather veggies to plant. Now all I have to do is get the grass out of the one bed I've got that's sort of ready and dig some more. I'm planing on going the square foot gardening route.

Of course if it doesn't stop raining I'll have to give up on borrowing a tiller and just make some 'lasagna beds'. That would still work with the square foot method.

If you are lost and confused about what I'm talking about above, heh, heh. You're on the Internet for crying out loud! Go Google 'Organic Gardening', 'Square Foot Gardening' and 'Lasagna Gardening'. Or maybe just google 'gardening'. Whatever. Look it up.

The sun is shinning out there. It rained last night so the ground is soft.

My fingers are itching to get muddy.

Forget Farm Town. Forget Farm Ville.

I'm gonna go dig in some real dirt.
