My get through the winter list of things to do

I like to write in this blog even though I've been a slacker lately.  It's a good outlet to just put  my thoughts down on things that interest me. And since other than family and friends, nature is what interests me, and I don't really like cold, I need to figure out what to do to keep me interested and happy in the winter months.

Here are some things I hope to do this winter.

• Make candles from the beeswax I've saved
• paint some outdoor chairs that are rusting
• pick up a needlepoint of a starfish and complete it so I can use as a pillow or wall decoration in Maine
• Ride 5 miles on my exercise bike at least 4 times a week
• Go ice skating
• Curl up and read good books with a hot drink beside me
• Spend hours with seed catalogs getting ready for spring!
• Clean the greenhouse and wash the seed trays
• Use scrap wood to make structures and/or planters for the garden

Secondly, I was pleasantly surprised to find a few Blog comments the other day...they were sent a year or so ago...but they somehow landed in my google account.  It was so gratifying to hear that this blog had inspired a woman to not mow as much lawn but instead keep or plant low-growing plants instead.  YES!  That's what it's  all about. 

A sharing of knowledge or lack thereof!  Keep the comments coming in. They're great!
