Ten minutes

Have ten minutes before I have to head out the door to work.

Days are getting slightly longer again. Only by a few minutes but temps are slightly warmer, also. Glad it's not a really harsh winter this year. Still hoping for more moisture, though by this time last year we had not seen rain or snow for 3-4 months. Not that bad this year.

Need to get out this week and get the leaves piled into the compost bin. They're still loose and in various places. Including the parking lot of the dance studio, which hasn't been open this season. Probably do that on Thur afternoon. Be a waste to not collect them in time for them to compost. 

If the ground isn't too hard, may till much of them straight into the north garden. Or not. Still debating buying tons of compost from the water utility before spring. 

Need to get out with the chain saw and trim trees as well. Better to get it done now than wait until they're budding out. 

Still have to be diverted from the agricultural tasks by the electrical and domestic tasks needing to be done. Try to get to those this week as much as possible. 

Okay. Time's up.
