I have been thinking alot about summer since we have had such wonderful weather the past few days. I would really like to have 3 4x8 raised garden beds this summer. The only problem is I am not good at gardening. I hate weeding and watering. So, where does that leave me? Not sure. Surely if I put in the effort to make 2 more raised beds, I will put a little more effort in this year???
I want to grow:
romaine
bell peppers
jalapenos
cucumbers
onions
tomatoes
strawberries
watermelon?
I would also like to get some apple and cherry trees. I realize they will not be producing for quite awhile but we are planning on living here foreverish.
The problem here is our soil. We have very sandy ground. I guess I could just give it a try with what I've got. I plan to start my seeds inside soon!
Anyway, I don't have much to report today because I was in class all day. Another fun day of lecture! I like to sit in back and check out all my fav blogs but there are like 30 people in front of me and I find it so strange that they just sit there and stare at the power points for 5 hours! Really? Isn't that old yet?
HCG Maintenance Day 7: My weight went up today by like alot! Scary! I guess my partying on Saturday was a little too soon. I am learning though. Those sugar free margaritas sure were fun in the moment. I ate awesome today. No snacks, just two meals. I planned out my meals for tomorrow too and am staying just under 1000 calories. I think a few days of this will pay off and I can be back down where I want to be. I haven't even gone over the 1500 cals allotted in any day though so I don't know why I am wavering so much. I also just had to try on these size 12 jean shorts today and they fit me better than they even did last year when I was around this weight. I have quit eating fruit because I think the carbs are what is messing with my weight. I am sticking to lean meats and veggies. Oh, and a little cheese! I just cannot live without cheese any longer!
An amazing milestone though is that I have not had fast food or restaurant food in 4 weeks! Not a bite!

I have been thinking about my garden alot lately too. I am trying to figure out where to put it and when to start working the ground to get ready. I have ordered a couple seed catalogues, but haven't got them yet. And I want fruit trees too, and I need to landscape my yard, and the list goes on and on. It will be a fun summer. Lots of time outside!!
