Gardening and blood donating!

This morning I spent quite a time in the garden. We had trays of perennial plants that arrived months ago in minute plugs. I potted them on but they have been left, rained on, flooded and dried out, so needed to do something with them before winter sets in! I decided to make the bed by the front on the house a ‘nursery’ area for the plants that have survived and they can be repositioned in the spring.

I also got some bulbs planted and some pansies put out in other parts of the garden, but the nursery bed is done and fingers firmly crossed.

I said yesterday that I had finished some Christmas cards so took a picture of them.

I did some stamping this afternoon to make some more cards with and then I set off for the Floral Hall where I had a blood doning appointment. Bit of a wait but this time my iron level was fine, in fact the droplet sank almost immediately so was able to give blood. The final tattoo will have to wait! It was dark when I came out and bitterly cold in the wind and I was walking into sleet! It was very dark and not many lights but took pics anyway, the third one is very blurred but I think it is funky.
