When the volunteers were here weeding the drive Jacky also came and freshened up the bench. It had flaked badly and was looking a mess. Jacky rubbed it down and looks a lot better now.
Last night I was up late as I spent all evening working on the round jigsaw. I had thought there were pieces missing, but in the end it was all there. Darren bought it for 50p At the boot sale.
My shoulder was aching as well as the knees today, I have tried a shoulder support and a posture corrector but neither really helped. After lunch I thought I would go to the chemist and see if I could buy one of the pain relief patches. There are three chemists in Hornsea, but I had forgotten the strange opening times here and they were all closed! I carried on walking as it was nice and got to the sea front, bit chilly down by the sea but a beautiful afternoon.
I sat out on the swing for a while this afternoon and Pandora came and kept me company for a while.
I have watered both the gardens this evening, no rain forecast for a while. The small pampas looks like it will have at least seven grasses this year, the larger one also looks like it may get grasses too.
Will get to bed earlier tonight and hopefully wake up in better humour tomorrow!
Blimey, that bench looks great with a rub down and a coat stain. It looks huge. I’d never really noticed how long it was. You could get a fair few people on that!
ReplyDeleteThe puzzle does look nice. Glad to see all the pieces were there after all the effort you put into it. Always seems a shame to pull them to bits again!
If you just had one joint giving you trouble it would be bad enough, but when you have multiples it’s a nightmare. I’m not surprised you’ve not felt up to much today. At least you got to see the sea. Does look nice along the front. I really do need to get to the sea myself, it’s been a long time ☹️
Pandora looks very happy to be having a swing on the seat. I’d love to know what she’s thinking in that pic.
We’ve done well for nice weather lately. Not so good for you gardeners though. No doubt we’ll all suffer with a rough patch soon. Just in time for second lockdown!
Go to bed with a bottle of gin, will help you sleep and take the pain away 😊
I don’t suppose the late night helped so will get to bed earlier tonight.
DeleteIt was pretty busy in town and on the sea front, people making the most of the nice weather and beating any new restrictions.
Pandora is a funny little thing, she likes to check out where you are, and she gets on the swing on her own.
