I've got spring fever really bad! I want to go outside and start cleaning up the flower beds and digging in the dirt. I keep visually arranging and replanting things that were getting too crowded last year. I don't really need to order any new plants but I keep going through the magazines and finding things I "need". I miss crocheting outside too, so warm and relaxing. The cats are getting anxious too. I guess I will have to settle on some pics from last year to tide me over.
