I’ve been thinking about a number of home improvements for around the outside.  The first one I’ve been considering is a trampoline for my kids.  I have to say that it seems to be a good idea (other than possible emergency room visits).   My kids would love it, but I think even more importantly the neighbor kids would love it too, which means I can keep an eye on what is  going on.

Also, I’ve been considering putting up a garden shed.  Like many people I want to grow some of my own veggies this year and I think it is time to give my gardening stuff a new home.  So the question is do I use garden shed plans or do I go with one of the pre-built Rubber Maid kinds?  I am still not sure.  I know that I like the way the wood ones look better though, so I am leaning that direction.

Finally, I’ve been thinking about sprucing up my flower garden with garden statues.  I’ve been looking around and I have been thinking that I might order a foo dog or a funky gargoyle.  I suppose my tastes run toward the strange, because it seems to me that many people would rather have cats or kids, but I like to stand out.

If I do manage to get all of these things done this season it will be nothing short of a miracle.  I am fairly busy raising kids, going to girl scout meeting and writing.  But I think these three things are manageable and they will make my outdoor garden space nicer than ever.
