Yawn Yawn, Wakey Wakey...!!!! MK8...

Up with lark today.

Already been into the conservatory and watered all my plants, and did a bit of deadheading.

Got my bowl of Crunchy Nut Cornflakes.

Out at 7.45am to see my lady,then off the doctor to get OH's leg dressed.

Market here today, so will go and see what goodies they have.

Hope everyone has a good day

 

Good morning everyone,

That time seems to be drawing closer when I have problems getting up in the mornings and this morning seems like one of them and at the moment I feel like my brain is fogged up

Have been busy this week getting all the holiday stuff washed,dried and ironed and the van dusted and hoovered out so all Mr Knady has to do is wash the outside of it then it is ready to go back into storage

Also had a very large bag of runner beans to prepare for freezing which are all done now

At this rate I shall feel like I willl need another holiday

Have a very good day everyone and hope the weather is kind to you all

 

Morning everyone,

Lili, hope OH's leg is improving. And you are feeling better too.

Loli, I have noticed how dark the mornings are getting. I'm afraid Amber's walk will have to move back to compensate for it.

Kandy, when you see it is still dark outside makes you want to turn over and catch some more z's

Shiney , hope you get the size stockings you need, fingers crossed.

Have a good day all, God bless.

 

That's good Shiney, take care.

 

Hi everyone,

Popping in....i had to leave around 6am this morning to head down to Toronto, Kait came with me so it wasnt too bad, back by 9:30 as i had my mainucure and then had to head to Barrie which is an hour away to do some deliveries, both of the girls came with me.

No baby news yet, she isnt even having any pain!!

We are supposed to go out for breakfast with some friends tomorrow, but we'll see, looks like Brad has to work again....he is insanely swamped with work, he's offering to pay $27 dollars an hour and cant find a decent welder!!! Sooner or later he'll find someone.

Having a glass of wine and just relaxing after my long day, was supposed to go grocery shopping but didnt feel like it, so that'll be tomorrow instead.

Off to get another glass of wine, and some a small bowl of ketchup chips..........so enjoy your evening everyone.

 

Good morning everyone.....

I hope everyone is on form

I had a bit of a restless night...dreaming of loosing my 'girls' to the fox....it was probably due to the fact that just as i was ready to go to work yesterday morning and it was light enough to see i found the young Stoggie i'd been babysitting on one of the lawns with his head missing....i looked back on the camera and there he was....he looks like one of this years young ....

I had to shoo him off just before i went to bed last night as he was showing just a bit too much interest in the chicken run......so he was on my mind.....over the years the foxes who do come every night anyway have usually just had a wander around but this one has a cheeky way with him...

It looks like we are all in for a fine day today...i've a list as long as your arm of things i want to get done in the garden .....
Hope your appointment went well Shiney

Wishing everyone well

Enjoy your day and take care everyone

 

Morning all

had a bit of a lay-in until 7am this morning, was really tired after yesterdays 14 hour working.
If I can summon up some energy, I have plenty to do in the garden, but then can relax this afternoon at The Cobblers.

@Loli , I hope you have 'the girls' well protected, as a youngster he will not have learned NOT to mess with the Female of the Human species yet !

Have a great day everyone.

 

Morning Everyone,

Loli, that is scarey, you need some bells and whistles or something to trip him up so that he lets you know he is about.

Penny when exactly is the baby due? I wish her all the luck with having an easy time of it.

Steve 14 hours is a long working day for someone with your disabilities, I hope you haven't over done things.

Waves to WOO, Kandy, Shiney and Lily et al and hope you all have a good day, take care and God bless you all.

Edit: Shiney, you just crept in under the line while I was typing. Take care of that high BP of yours.

 

Morning all, hope everyone is well.

@moyra I was ok, just very tired. The reason for such a long day was all the time I spent sitting in traffic queues. The A34 and A43 were absolutely horrendous but I had no choice but to use them to get back as my last drop was in Oxford. Earlier in the day I had 4 drops in Birmingham and that was during morning rush hour!

That is a lovely sunrise, bodes well for the rest of the day

Got a whole bed cleared of annuals, dug over, some compost and 'rockdust' added, and replanted with some spring bulbs, a Perennial Chrysanthemum (wizard), Potentilla (Gold Sovereign), Rumex Sanguineus, Gallardia, Wall flowers and Primroses, plus a temporary home for a Hosta that I need to rehome elsewhere. There is already a Dicentra Spectrablis at the back by the wall.

Here is a picture of the garden the bit worked on is the bit just right of the shed.



The Bed during the work, you can see the Dicentra at the back, plus a few weeds that managed to get started despite being completely shaded out by the Cosmos, Zinna and Clary that was here.

And what it looks like now, I have still to add a compost and then bark chip mulch.

And then I went to The Cobblers, who could only manage a dour 0-0 draw with Morecombe.

More to do out there today, hope the sun shines as promised.

Have a great day one and all.

 

Good morning everyone,

Beautiful sunrise in your neck of the woods Woo...hope all is well with you and yours

Gdnam...no wonder you were tired....i think driving can be very tiring ...and you got lots done too in the garden under the supervision of your furry ones i seelooks great...

I didn't stop yesterday what with gardening and baking but i enjoyed every minute of it and the fine weather made it even better i think the problem is when you stop,that's when you feel it.....

Plenty more to do today and more sunshine to do it in....

Wishing everyone well...

Have a great Sunday and take care

 

@Loli, thanks, yes 'my girls' like to supervise

Almost forgot, these arrived with the Bills yesterday....
