what I hate most?
just plain old cold weather...
nothing grows and your bones always ache! :(
cover...uncover...cover...uncover...
just all wilty looking and stressed out!

the pipes, and even snapdragons and pansies froze here.
they are slowly thawing out and bouncing back to life but covered everything this afternoon to save a bit of what little life they have let to them.

Well, just knowing Mr. Groundhog didn't see his shadow is pleasing enough. At least we will have an early spring!
