I have so much yard work to do but I'm already experiencing so much ear pain and sinus pressure, not to mention my eyes being so tired and itchy. I think I will stay indoors. My lilac bush is all budded out. I hope we don't get anymore frost or it will hurt it. Lilacs are so pretty and I love the smell but I think that's one of the worst ones for my allergies. My Forsythia bushes are all buds too. Not too much longer and they will bloom.

Which reminds me that last year I planted some bulbs of various things. I really hope that at least the irises made it and will bloom this year.

I'm trying to save money so I doubt I will be doing a ton of gardening this year. We may build some raised beds and a compost bin from pallets. I also want to get a load of gravel this year for the driveway and fix the sidewalks. So yeah I think more focus this year on some minor landscaping and porch gardening instead of planting and weeding.
