Last week, it was filling up a bird feeder. I mean, those things don't even weigh that much. This week, it was shaking a towel out to fold it. I swear.<br /><br />I had no idea you could order rose babies on the Internet! Heading to Google now for sure :)Jessica Jarrellhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14088243667002486509noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5353873250655389819.post-41015217505380443432016-02-16T08:38:12.330-05:002016-02-16T08:38:12.330-05:00Hello, FL!

I know you'll love tending to them and sharing photos with us of their blooms. Can't wait! I'm so eager for spring to come. So much to do here on the farm. Yesterday I put some old daffodil bulbs in the ground that I never got planted last fall. They looked okay. Getting buckets of rain this morning. Stay warm, and tend to that achy back.M.K.https://www.blogger.com/profile/09205619221345704689noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5353873250655389819.post-16410542059132053442016-02-15T17:29:09.494-05:002016-02-15T17:29:09.494-05:00Do hope your back is improving.

Its difficult to be patient however when garden chores are calling. How exciting to get your lovely new roses in the mail - nothing better.

I seem to injure myself all the time now from lifting and moving heavy items. Doing things I never thought twice about a few years ago causes injuries that take a long time to heal. It is very smart of you to take your Ibuprofen and rest. Reading cat stories sounds like a very pleasant way to relax and heal.KathyB.https://www.blogger.com/profile/13076933273610590290noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5353873250655389819.post-77293978704834755122016-02-13T22:28:32.495-05:002016-02-13T22:28:32.495-05:00Ooooh, very exciting!!!
