Happy Mother's Day !

It's nice to have all the kids home from college and work.  Sad to say, the weather is not cooperating .  I was hoping to get out in the garden and start preparing the soil, but it tooo wet.   It's rained every other day it seems.   I couldn't even go to my nursery to purchase flowers for my pots because of all the rain we had this morning.  Now it's just plain windy and cold.  Maybe next weekend will be nice. 

Any plants I took outside seem to be doing ok and haven't gone into shock.  I'm still going to wait till it warms up more to take the Aloe outside.  I don't want to lose that. 

I've been trying to build up the compost pile.  I think once the grass dries out and I can mow it, I will bag some of it to throw on the pile to add some green.  I hope this works.   Any hints of dos and don'ts would be appreciated.
