Starting up my blogs again. Wow! Getting my Garden Plot ready, planting some Memorial flowers, more.

Hey, hey, hey! A big welcome to all my readers. Will be posting more.

It is a good time to make a Posting on all my blogs.

I am a semi-new Widow, so will write about that later here or on another Blog. It was a hard time after my husband died in late April. It has been about 7 months now, going into Month 8. First Thanksgiving without him, and soon to be First Christmas without him, too. 

Right now I am dreaming about growing some tomatoes. And maybe also some sunflowers.

My sister had some raised beds I can try out in the Spring.

She and my other sister helped me get stuff OUT of my storage unit. This is helped me a lot. We also had a Thanksgiving together earlier. It was fun.

I have lots to do. But have a head start this Fall because I and my sister have done some pruning of the trees that will come down in the Spring to let the sun into the Garden Area.

I still have houseplants and brought one plant inside, after putting it in the ground. Not sure what kind it is, but will try to save it.

Will be selling books again, and have many great seeds I can start, also this Spring.

Comment if you are doing a garden next year. I think it will really help with savings!

Adding: Almost forgot. Will be getting back into Ebay, selling books and more, soon, also. Here I am there: https://www.ebay.com/str/bestbooksandcollectibles and on FB: https://www.facebook.com/willowtreemoon. Come visit!

All for today,

Betsyanne

From the Garden Spot... Flying with FlyLady, and Blogging

Today, as I explained on my other blog, The Moon and the Willow Tree, I told myself to get ALL my blogs done.

A scary Busy Bee from Clker.com

This is my second-to-last blog to complete today. The last one is a Club blog, for the local BGAMUG Computer Club. I will be posting about the date of the next meeting, and how the Auction went. Also I will be talking about my taking a year off from Webmaster duties vs. retiring (I'm NOT retiring...)

So... I thought I would share the FlyLady link again. Between "flying" and delayed maintenance here (plus organization) I am very busy. Add that to finishing books and projects and trainings. But getting things done requires MAKING time.

So this morning I am making time for these blogs, updating all, and then getting busy with other semi-fun projects and fun ones.

Here in Bowling Green, Kentucky the weather is really good. There was fog this morning, but hopefully this will burn off this afternoon.

How are things in your neck of the woods? Good, I hope.

Valentine's Day 2013, Projects, BG Events, more

I hope you had a GREAT Valentine's Day, full of laughter and joy. 
My sweetie Rickey took me out to lunch and gave me another great Valentine's card AND candy. The candy treat was wild - - chocolate covered jelly beans. I got a mouthful of chocolate with every gummy bite.

Projects, projects, projects!  
I have not had time to go to any fun BG events lately. I have several projects on my proverbial plate, as I know my readers have had too.

Today I start on TAXES, and then must EDIT my book(s), and keep my blogs and websites up to date.

I am also posting on the BGAMUG Computer Club blog to keep it updated.

Blogging should be done regularly, I know!
So I will still be updating THIS blog. Do you have a blog? List it as a comment so I can go and visit.

The BG Event Site page here lists all kinds of links where you can find out what is going on in town.

This Events Blog listing daily events has become a much loved duty, but it's been taking too much time away from my writing and other projects.

I may still post some outstanding events occasionally.

I suggest picking up the SOKY Happenings at Barnes and Noble bookstore for now, and also checking the links here and on the WCVK Community Happenings website page regularly.

For now, I'll keep all my sites and blogs going, PLUS do all my projects.

I will be back here soon!

Until then, have a WONDERFUL week.
