On Air in 3... 2... 1...

Look out everybody, this blog is LIVE!

It's taken awhile to get myself going, but it's time to give this blog the ol' college try.  I'm old enough/young enough to have had a Xanga account back in the day and I used to love writing there, so we'll see what happens here.  I couldn't decide what my blog theme would be-- cooking?  sewing?  teaching?  gaming?  I'm really not enough of an expert at any of those things that I felt I could make an entire blog dedicated to the topic, so instead this blog is about everything.

First project up for review: Garden Boxes!
My garden has been more of a jungle the last couple years, which I blame on the fact that it's too big for a household of 2, but it also could be because I start with really good intentions but then get too busy and forget to tend it.  To address these issues, I've decided to take our 16' x16' garden space and turn it into two small, raised garden boxes.  One will be 4'x4' and will contain a strawberry pyramid, and the other will be 4'x6' and will contain various types of veggies.  I'm in building and digging mode now, here's the progress so far:


Actually, I finished this one with its third layer, but forgot to take the final pic.  I'd put up a picture of the digging, but I'm too embarrassed to post "before" pictures of the garden until it finally looks all beautiful and complete.
