Yawn, Yawn, Wakey Wakey!! 2016

Good morning everyone. Seems a lot colder again this morning. Amber is awaiting her walk so had best get on with it.

Have a good day all take care, keep warm and dry and above all safe and well. God bless.

 

Morning all

Yes, it's little 'ol me. I am in the land of the living, just having a very
busy time of things.

As like everyone else, seeds, plants and garden is taking over, today's forecast is
21 degrees, so my smaller pots will need an extra soak.

My back pain is ticking over, on Tuesday I went for a full on massage, and boy, it's
done a bit of good. I felt a bit bruised for a couple of days, but that was supposed
to happen. Just the lower back is still giving me jip.

Ah well, going to be another couple of busy days ahead, sorting out tomato
plants for the boot sale on Sunday. Last count, I still have 350 plants left.

Make sure you lather on sun cream if working in the garden.

 

Morning early people

Nice morning again

Got a small job to do in town that I don't really want to do, but it's for a mate so kinda feel obliged.

Only 3 weeks till Shineyland Going to be visiting one of the Wakey Wakey'ers on the way up there, so ask yourselves, should I be afraid?

Have a good day everyone

 

Good day everyone
We are expecting a sunny and warm day here too and I will be outside with my sunscreen on.

Going over to the city next to my town to the provincial court house to register my dispute of a traffic violation. I'm not giving up $325 without a fight! If they want my money, I want them to spend time in court to get it!

Then I'll stop to see my friend in the home on the way back to drop off a couple of bags full of toiletries for him.

Hope to be back home and in the back yard again by 2ish.

I hope everyone gets to enjoy this wonderful day and stays safe!

 

Good day to our GC WW'ers

Had a lovely walk this morning to a different woods than usual (it's a proposed fracking site and last year there were a number of "do not enter" signs up No signs today though ) and the wildflowers were glorious in their abundance. Took some photo's on my phone so I might upload those later. I thought it was milder this morning, so for the walk I wore a sleeveless T-shirt, with a lightweight shirt over the top and a gilet but, boy, did it soon heat up! I ended up having to remove the T-shirt when I was in the woods. Even though I was the only person for miles around, I still ended up taking it off from under my gilet and shirt I was amazed I could still do it!

I've been pottering in the garden since I got back but I've come in from the midday sun

I was out visiting yesterday and looking around my friends garden (it's a big one) and she's offered me some cuttings in exchange for a weeding session Sounds like a fair deal to me! This afternoon I'm off to see a neighbour (who has a greenhouse!!!) who doesn't know very much about gardening. So, I thought I might have a little nosey around and point out any *weeds* which I might have to relocate for him He's on one of the committees which is organising events in June to mark the Queens birthday so I need to know just what he is expecting when he asked me the other day if I'll be putting up bunting. I don't mind decorating the front of the house with bunting, but, I'm not quite sure just how far/few is expected I've got some fabric which I've had for a while (was going to be used in a friendship quilt, but never got around to it ) with a union jack motif running through it so I could make bunting out of that? I'm sure he'll point me in the right direction.

The scaffolding came down on the new build at the end of my garden this week, so I reckon I'll have new neighbours down there for the summer. I just hope they aren't noisy/nuisance types

Right, need to get my thinking cap on and make a decision what I'll be cooking tonight. I'm all out of inspiration

Healing vibes for all who need them and miles of smiles for all xxMxx

 

Good morning everyone, The sun has not emerged here yet, but I have to get Amber out for her walk. Have a good day everyone stay warm and dry and above all safe and well. God bless.

 

Good morning WW'ers

Another gorgeous day out there. Thank you for the pretty sunrise picture @wiseowl it's beautiful.

There is a charity football match on in the village this afternoon, which we might go to. Much depends on how hot it is because I'm not a lover of our sticky heat; I find it can be debilitating.

Had a good nosey around the garden when I visited a neighbour yesterday but he seems to have it all under control and looking really lovely; no opportunity for me to kid him a "weed" needed relocating either Instead, I'll be taking some cuttings from my mints to add to his collection. I've got some vegetable seeds he may appreciate too.

Gave the garden a good soaking last night because the temperatures are set to soar. Even though I have a good layer of bark chip for mulch, the new bed still has young plants in it and they will need the moisture more this year than any other.

Enjoy your day today, how ever you choose to spend it. Stay hydrated and cool! Healing vibes for those who need them and miles of smiles for all xxMxx

 

Good day everyone,
I hope everyone has a super time outside today. We're not expecting rain until the late p.m. so I plan to get lots done out there before that happens.
Have a safe day all

 

Good day!

What a beautiful day I'm at work unfortunately but just being able to see the sunshine & feel the heat through the window is very nice , I hope we will be blessed with this weather for a few weeks, lets hope it holds out for Shineyland .

We had an owl in the tree at the front of the house last night, he was calling to another owl, who was calling back, it was wonderful to hear them .

I'm going to have to do some watering tonight, my new plants aren't going to manage in this heat if I don't give them a good soaking. I can't believe just how much the garden has changed in a few days, everyday I see something new out there

I'm thinking about putting a rockery in the garden, I fancy a few alpines I need to give that some more thought

I took my car for service on Thursday, it needs a new spring , they have ordered the part in but are now short staffed do I won't get it back until Tuesday, I'm driving to old Toyota, I'd forgotten just how big the boot is, my passing comment to Kev this morning was 'just imagine how many plants I could get in this boot!' Needless to say there was no comment returned!

I hope you are all well, enjoy your day & don't over do it.

 

Well finally got my Biopsy date and that is for Friday, the 13th May at 4.40pm. They say don't have appointments on a Friday and quite frankly I would prefer it not to be on the 13th or at 4.40 when you consider it time they are all thinking of going home!!! Still it has to be done, I shall go by taxi as it may be too uncomfortable for me to drive. I shall then have to get a taxi home another £20 down the drain but nevertheless lets hope it will go ok. The follow up appointment with the gynaecology consultant is not until the 11th of August at 12.15 much better timing provided that will be that and there will be no further need for surgery etc.

Have a good evening all. God bless.

 

I can see all the reasoning behind preferring not to have that date. But, in my opinion - far better to get it done and over with Will have my that it all goes without any hitches!


Well, never made the charity footie match - Mr "M" wasn't in that frame of mind and #2 wasn't keen either. So, instead we went ...

... shopping! UGH!!!! Mind you, on the bright side, it did include Morrisons and I did find a replacement for the plant I murdered through dehydration

@CanadianLori - give me a 5 minute warning of your rain ... I'll will myself over to you - I need a cold shower, its been baking here today (temp wise!).

@Beckie76 - owl noises (to my mind) are the best! I fell in love with them when I moved here and laughed aloud at the "T'wit, t-whit" from one direction and the responding, "T.Woooooo" from another direction!! They make me chuckle
