Yawn... Wakey Wakey...!!! #3

Good morning everyone,

Its cooler today here, but sunny. :thumb:

Trust me Jaz......nothing wrong with his "parts" :hehe::p:hehe:......and no bits falling off :thmb:

 

Good afternoon everybody! Mornings are so hectic in here getting kids off to school etc. lately - don't get a chance to get on here till around lunchtime when I take a work break

Had a lovely morning this morning where the kids hauled me out to my greenhouse in the front of the house - there they have stashed my birthday goodies - a lovely 'big' dwarf apricot tree in a big pot - I'm thinking I should keep it in the greenhouse? but wil have to check, some lovely raspberry canes, and some fantastic quality gardening tools - which they INSISTED were half price on sale at the garden centre and then they got my other son's staff discount on top of it hmmmmm, and some odds and ends for the allotment - pea stake holders, gloves, hand tools etc. Wonderful gifts and thoughtful too

Gray drizzly here this morning - yeuck - keep going out to the pond to 'twirl' the blanketweed and try and get rid of some of it - I have treatment in the pond right now, but looking at other threads on here, looks like some water lilies might be in order to help block out the sunlight (when we do get it that is) - but meanwhile carrying on with the barleystraw etc., and hopefully the tadpoles will do their bit to help out once they hatch. They are no longer just round black spots in the spawn, but they have elongated a little - so maybe on the weekend or early next week I shall have hundreds swimming around

Looking forward to the Open Day Shiney - it's great to hear about your projects and what you're doing, but another entirely to see it in person. Anybody from around Kent that wants to go up together - let me know - driving doesn't bother me, and looking forward to meeting some others from here as well.

Kandy - sorry for the cold - you know how viruses travel across computers :( Hope you get rid of it soon, OH has a nasty nasty chest cold right now - worse than mine I think.

Have a great day everybody!

 

good afternoon everyone, thanks woo pleased you like my new patio took some more pics going to put them up now, heres a couple of pics of my new candle lamps in the hall my new vase with flowers and my new stool with my teddies on in lounge.





have a great rest of the day all

Evening friends

Got on well at the hospital, awaiting a small op which will be done when he has consulted my cardiologist as the injections contain adrenaline and he thinks I will not be able to have them. The ones without do not help bleeding and bruising so well.
Glad you enjoyed your birthday Natalie, I didn't dare announce it on here incase you were ignoring it :wink:

 

Good morning everyone,

My cold has come out full blown now and I am hoping and praying that Mr Kandy doesnt get it as we are going down to Somerset one day next week for a funeral and it won't be fair on the relatives if we are coughing and sneezing all over them:(I just hope my back settles down by then as well:p

Shiney,I bet your garden is starting to look good with all your spring bulbs in flower:thmb:

Rosa, love your displays.You ought to go in for house dressing you could make a fortune out of it:D

Jazmine good luck with the op.Is this for the hernia that you were telling me about or something else?

Happy Belated Birthday Natilie.looking forward to seeing piccys of your birthday prezzies for the garden and allotment:thmb:Not sure about the Apricot as I have never grown them before
