many various things of varying levels of interest, variously.
1. i went to an actual rock show last night. i went to the cradle and saw the wedding present. it rocked the hell out. smoke free venues are fantastic.
2. although it's not officially spring, i am acting like it is. i pulled the crap out of the closet where the fancypants new vacuum cleaner will live. 90% of the crap will be going into the trash. 9.9% will be recycled. .1% will actually be kept.
3. i did actual yard work yesterday AND today. i transplanted day lillies from the raised bed in the back (where i want to plant vegetables) to a bed in the front that needs some filling out. i also removed the peonies, which i hate, and those suckers are destined to become mulch. hah. i found my pruning shears which i apparently left on the a/c compressor some months ago, and used them to prune back the shrubbery in the front.
4. i modified one of my gutter downspouts such that water will be directed away from the foundation (i hope) but i won't have an extension right in my walkway, and i don't have to do any digging. it involved a wacky vinyl thing that rolls itself up when it's dry, and unrolls when it's full of water.
5. THEY ARE IN RARE FORM TODAY. THEY ARE UNC FANS. THEY HAVE OUT OF TOWN GUESTS. OH. MY. GOD.

yay for spring cleaning and gardening! Sounds like you got a lot done.
Forget the calendar, I think it's spring when the frost-free nights are the norm and the nights below freezing are unusual.
why do you hate peonies? are they hard to take care of?
