But it was worth it.
Set out about half the annuals – pansies, portaluca, alyssum and impatiens. Tomorrow the alyssum, lobelia, viola.
And isn’t peat moss the most wonderful thing in the world? You start out with hardpan – get down on your knees, add peat, knead it in and voila! Rich, dark, crumbly dirt. Yum.
Roger Swain would be so proud of me! Where are ya, Rog, lemme give ya a big kiss, c’mere you gray-bearded galoot!
Auntie I have done my spring planting too! I have planted my lawnchair in the back yard and I am waiting on Cecil. 
Aha, I can see that you’re very worried about this Cecil thing.
I want to help.
My first name is Cecil. Really. I don’t use it, because I’ve always felt it was a dumb name. Unless, of course, you are the smartest guy in the world, and then what the heck.
If it would make you feel any better, I will welcome you to the board, and you can have a sig like:
The only person to be welcomed to the board by a guy named Cecil who is not the smartest guy in the world in fact responding to my post like that indicates that he is the dumbest guy in the world.
I am here do help.
I guy named Cecil.
