Winter, you win
Blogging will resume once the snow stops falling once and for all. Right now, I'm just sick of this.

Ripped from the headliines
Woman attacks meteorologist
Burnaby, BC (AP)-- The Global BC studios were shocked today when a woman burst into the newsroom and savagely beat the meteorologist unconscious with a snow shovel.
The suspect, identified only as Throkky, was heard to mutter "I said if he makes one more joke about snow in the interior, I'm going to lose it" shortly before she bypassed security at the station.
The Hawaiian shirt-clad weatherman had reported earlier that several parts of the Interior had received considerable snow accumulations overnight. He was taken to hospital where he is in stable condition.
As the news cameras gathered around, the suspect shouted "where the hell is global warming when you need it?" as she was taken away in a police cruiser. She is to appear in court tomorrow and is expected to plead not guilty by reason of insanity (the Cabin Fever defense)

Square Foot Gardening, fence destruction
No pictures today kids. It has been snowing, melting, then snowing again. The yard is still just as brown as 2 weeks ago. Plus, it's 10 PM, so it's a week bit dark for snapping pics.
Anyways, the wee little garden square is more than half planted. I am using the Square Foot Gardening method this year, to keep it from going too nuts. I already know i will need at least 2 more 4x4 squares to plant what I need.
Each square starts life as 2-2x8s, 8 ft long.l They're screwed together and lined with a hearty amount of newsprint (no coloured inks though). I throw finished compost, peat moss and cheap potting soil on in layers until it is full up to the top.
The box is divided in 1' squares, and I plant a different vegetable in each square. It l.ooks very neat and orderly so far.
Al.so, i ripped down my fence.l More about the how and why tomorrow.
