Today was a nice sunny day (our last warm one for at least a week). Finished cleaning up the few small tasks in the back yard. Now it’s just a case of prepping the pots for planting. Although that won’t happen for close to a month so it’s not a big rush. So I suppose I should do some dusting and cleaning this week.

Ask and you shall receive. I took a couple of photos this morning. fatbaby - the garden isn’t well tended yet. There’s still a lot of spring clean-up to do, but that’s okay. I’ll take pictures of the berry bushes later (perhaps with berries on them). Right now they’re mainly just sticks with a little green on them. You can click on any of the pictures to see a bigger version if you wish.

The side border in the front with mainly daffodils, but a few tulips coming:

And my favourite - snake head lily (fritillaria meleagris):

Today’s weigh-in brings me to 311.8 which is 0.6 pounds less than last week.  I’m not surprised with this week’s weight, with last week’s 3 pound loss I pretty much assumed this one would be low.  As long as the month to month trend is down, I don’t really care much about the weekly weights.  Since I started keeping track this is day 110 on plan.
