Well, I have caught a bug. The green thumb bug that it is. I went home last week and saw so many beautiful gardens and landscapes which got me VERY excited about trying to get my own yard looking, well, like a yard and not just a brown waste land (ok, so I am being a little dramatic). Jeff and I have talked about getting a watering system and other plans of planting a garden, but we haven't really done anything about it (except for trying to controll the weeds).
Well, this week I have started, on my new found energy, to try and work in my yard. I even went to the Home Depot by myself and bought some Round Up and some new (cute) gloves. I still don't have any idea what I am doing, but I figure with asking a lot of questions and some trial and error, Jeff and I just might be able to figure it out!

I'm so proud of you. And I especially like your cute green gloves. :)
Ooo I'm excited to see your garden when it's done! I really want to learn how to garden for when I have my own home. Good job, Robyn!
A garden grows one leaf at a time. Glad you're learning what fun it is to have a garden. Me, well, I buy the plants and Dad plants and takes care of them. It works for me!
How exciting! That sounds like a lot of fun. I've always wanted a yard of my own to garden in. Good luck! When in doubt, ask Google.
Good for you! I can't wait to see your oasis once it really gets under way!
It's funny how I was never interested in gardening until I got a place of my own with a yard. It is a learning experience for me even after all these years. It can be very rewarding. I hope it will be for you.
I love gardening. I especially get proud of the flowers when they are all blooming.I love how some bloom early and some late so there is always something in bloom! I even enjoy serving tomatoes and other things that I have grown (even though I will never eat the tomatoes myself).
