nope,
no yummy shortbread today
no luscious needle work
no gorgeous colours
just
good ol'virginny clay
why there aren't more pottery wheels here I don' know
took up the tools de jour
(he put the rakes away before I could snap them!!!)
and out we went
he doing maintenance
and oil changes and yucky stuff like that
and moi
got stuck into the big flower bed
that has no flowers
and may never have again
tons of leaves removed
mulched
to a fine mix
almost soil like
underneath the trees cleared
sticks picked up
and it was good!!
why does the wind always shift and blow the leaves back in
)and the grass will grow again and it won't be so brown there on the left
god it looks awful
but this was taken at almost 7 pm so the light is low
well, that's my story and I'm sticking to it(
another example of
BOING
I mean Spring
the clematis popped overnight
and now that it's feet can breathe I hope it grows and covers the trellis
and blooms its little socks off
put a trellis around the Columbine
and gave it a little mulch blanket
rain and storms coming tomorrow apparently
so it will be watered
and after I quit and came inside
when you have to you have to
:)
he continued in the front
making more mulch
with those leaves that never end
look how dry and dusty it is
I'm off to lie down and give my back a rest
OUCH!!!
hope you had a good day
I did
:)
Hi M, I just saw your chick flick and got a good giggle first thing this morning. So cute! Our internet at home isn't working at the moment and yesterday was a day of chauffering kids around. Yikes! I'm pooped and the house is a mess. I start to feel overwhelmed on days like that. You sure are keeping busy. So many beautiful flowers and lovely crochet pieces ... oops, I mean knitting. Love your header photo! We got a bit of early morning rain today. Who knows how the rest of the day will pan out. Now I must get to work. Toodles for now. :) Tammy
ReplyDeletethose are worn out shoes you have there ,but you keep those feet busy i see ,thats what needs to be done when you have a garden ,my garden isnt very nice so not sure that i should do there
ReplyDeletetake care of the back and enjoy resting

Yes thank you, I had a good day too! No gardening though, a bit early for that. But I actually emptied two laundry baskets. Without felting anything. So I'm pleased! :)
