Star Wars Day

A day far more suited to Darren and Tina than me, but a very popular day for an awful lot of people I think.
I haven’t been sleeping that well and getting up ridiculously early so today I really didn’t feel at all bright and haven’t over done things today! I did go to the shop and started clearing up the mess from yesterday, then, as much as it was the last thing I was inclined to do I did go through the exercise routine, I have to allow about an hour, that isn’t all exercise but there are eighteen different ones and you are moving from bed to stairs to chair etc and ending up on the exercise bike. I used a different chair today and had more success with the three exercises using resistance bands,
It has been a pretty miserable day so Lesley and I agreed it wasn’t a weeding day, but she did come round and we sat in the summer house having a cuppa with the doors open.
This evening I have been trying to get the remaining photos organised, getting some into photo books etc and discarding a few more as well.
When I went to put some fox food out I took some photos in the garden. Yesterday Tina unearthed a horse chestnut seedling that had obviously been cut back once before as the ‘trunk’ is quite thick. I potted it up immediately and hoping that it will survive.
Last year I bought three tiny London Pride plants that have taken well and this year they are flowering.
The plants in the recycled garden cart are looking lovely.
We have several heucheras of different colours that were really struggling with the exceptionally dry weather, they have livened up a bit now we have had some rain.
Best get back to the photos now!

  1. Waking up early every morning is horrible. Hopefully you’ll get out of that routine soon and manage to sleeping a little bit longer.
    It’s been a horrible day today weatherwise so I’m not surprised you’ve not done much outside today. Although all the sorting you’re doing is hard enough work. At least you still managed a couple of hours for a natter with Leslie, that’s nice.
    Those exercises don’t sound much fun at all, but you’re still giving them a go, so all power to you.
    A brand new bonsai in the making. Another one to add to your collection.
    I like the London Pride. I remember my dad planted it in the border around the lawn when I was a kid, and that’s a long time ago! Once it got bedded in it spread like wildfire, but always looked nice.
    With any luck you’ll have those photos sorted soon……maybe.

  2. I remember London Pride in the garden when I was a kid, doesn't seem so popular these days but I really like it.
    The photos are pretty much sorted now and three more empty boxes is a bonus!
