I dug up the dahlias and placed them in paper bags and put them into the "winter garden" until February, when I'll pot them up again. Same thing with the cannas. Also brought in the pots with geraniums, calabrachoa, purple wave petunias, etc. Next year, I'll just clip bits and pieces and root them for the summer. Saves lots of money!
One of our favorite views on a 3 mile walkH and I washed the windows and sliding doors, inside and out (what a chore!) and we did manage to get in our 3 mile walk. I think I've had enough for one weekend. Whew. I get to go to work tomorrow and rest up! YAY!!!
I also cleaned up the space which held my old "office area". It's now a sort of reading room/library - just looks nice, but I doubt it will be used much.

Giddy,
Is that a heated room/porch where you are putting those plants for the winter?
I had to call my DH in to see H washing the windows. He just finished washing ours 30 min. ago. He thinks he is the only man who does that. I had to show him he is not. :)
I know what you mean about going to work to rest up. I feel that way quite often on the weekend.
O o o o those windows look so sparkling clean.
Please come over and help me do mine.
Zoey, the "winter garden" is downstairs in the mechanical room (furnace, water heater). It stays around 45 - 50 degrees in the coldest part of the winter.
Becky, it rained on my nice, shiny windows last night - bummer!
I want to get out and do all that if it ever stops raining here! I'd love to do the same with my geraniums, etc. but I don't have a good place to put them.
Wow, hubby washing the windows! I don't know if I could get mine to do that :)
What a pretty walk you have. Lovely picture.
I also love your jade plant...it's nice with the ivy. I'm glad it finally took off for you.
