Good news: I finally got around to ordering mulch.
Bad news: I ordered 10 cubic yards of mulch, which was delivered yesterday.
Good news: I've got the first layer of mulch down under the swingset.
Bad news: I've got it 2" deep - it's supposed to be 4" deep when I'm done.
Good news: I have plenty of mulch to finish the swingset and the new flower beds.
Bad news: Boy, do I ever have plenty. (That's how much is left after doing the first layer on the swingset)
Good news: One of the roses I planted last year is super-happy this year, thus continuing my plan of using landscaping to distract my neighbors from the satellite dish.
Bad news: The rose has pretty much shot its wad for spring blooms, so after finishing the mulch I can look forward to an hour of deadheading followed by weeks of it sitting there looking boring before it (hopefully) blooms again later this summer.

How are the biceps looking and how is the back feeling?
If the rose happens to be a 'knock-out rose' it will bloom all summer. Deadhead, fertilize and water and voila ... more roses very quickly. I grow these roses, love them! K's mom
