Today we had the same storm come and go and now the weatherman is talking about tornado warnings, sigh…….

If you find that you want or need something you can usually rely on the Internet to bring it to you some how. Right now the Home and Garden sections of Walmart are in complete turmoil and I can’t think of any other place that I’d hate to be at more these days more than Walmart. With spring comes all the Outdoor and Gardens madness that so many of us enjoy and rely on each year. I know that my Dad is up and ready to start with all the Workshop and Home Improvement projects and tasks that he has been thinking of all winter long for his place and a few things around my place as well. Thanks for keeping me in mind Dad!

I’m itching to get my hands into the earth and start my gardens and really get into some heavy duty yard work. I enjoy working outside as long as isn’t it freezing outside. I have got some nice Decorative Planters that I want to get going soon that I found online a few months ago. The house that I grew up in had the nicest Window Box Planters in the neighborhood and I have wanted to start my own for a long time, so I’m excited about getting them all going and looking good for the up and coming season.

My mother was always so proud of her handy work outside of the house. I know that she will be proud to see that I’m taking the time to try and get my own house and yard in order. She gave me a very nice High End Planter for Christmas that I plan on placing on the front porch. I just haven’t decided which type of flower(s) that I want to plant there. I still have a little bit of time before having to make a decision. Maybe I’ll ask my mother for her opinion, she likes it when I do that!

I’m first going to check out some of the Myrtle Beach Golf Vacations that I’ve seen advertised at ttimesonly.com. I really enjoy golf and just never get much extra time to play these past few years. I googled “Myrtle Beach Golf” and found this great site that offers great prices for hotels and golf packages. It is pretty user friendly and seems to be a one stop shop site for Golf Packages Myrtle Beach style and is giving me something to look forward to.

This has been one heck of a long hard winter, everyone is ready for spring. Everyone but the snow removal companies that is. They have been making big bucks these past few months, that’s for sure. And we are looking at getting another round come Monday. Anyway looking at these Myrtle Beach Golf Packages this evening has really given me something to look forward to, giving me a light that is needed to see at the end of this long dark tunnel called winter.

Now I have to admit that I really don’t know much about IRA Accounts or Mobile Trading but I’m certainly open to learning ways to make an extra buck or two, so I’ve consented to learning about these various ways of investing. My brother-in-law has dabbled a bit in this field so I’ve asked him to give me a bit of advice as well.  He and my sister will be coming over for dinner this week end and I plan on picking his brain while he is picking at the roasted chicken that I plan to serve them.

With times being so hard these days, with the economy in such a turmoil we need to be creative in the different ways to make our money work for us, so wish me luck and I’ll keep you posted when I find out more. And let’s pray that we don’t get any more snow for a while, cause I’m so done with all of this winter weather.

I have been anxiously waiting for this spring. I found the most wonderful window flower boxes that I picked up real cheap and can’t wait for the stores to start putting out the seed packets for planting. I want to have a real brilliant display of flowers around the place. I’ve always enjoyed the look of window plant boxes on people’s homes, the house that I grew up in had window boxes that my mother was so proud of planting each spring and summer. There is just something about a window box full of color that really brightens up the place and I’m ready for my place to have that certain touch added to it.

I always have a nice vegetable garden and a few flowers, plants, bushes and trees that pop out their beautiful blossoms for me to enjoy each year. I can’t wait to get my hands in the dirt once again, it seems like forever since we have had a nice warm and dry day. I really don’t like the month of February one bit other than the fact that it means that spring is right around the corner. But this year the groundhog indicates that we won’t be seeing anything for at least another 6 weeks, arg…………
