Changeable weather

At the moment I go from being cold to stepping outside a bit later and thinking how warm it is! Had rain for a while as well today, I guess autumn is settling in. Not the best of days otherwise as the pain has been quite bad, so just a couple of short walks to post box and shop! Was going to do a bit of gardening but thought better of it today. I started another jigsaw last night and have done a bit to it today.
Got that one at the boot sale a couple of weeks back and it looked colourful and reasonable to do.
I put the garden chickens back out today as Jayne cut the lawn again yesterday. They look better now the grass is shorter!
The large pampas doesn’t seem to have any blooms this year but the small one has some and more than it has had before.
Some nice late colour in the tubs I made out of caravan sinks!
This hollyhock looks all but dead but is still flowering at the top!
Apart from usual chores that’s it, don’t hold your breath that it will be any more interesting tomorrow,

  1. Sorry to hear the pain has been bad today. At least you made the right decision to give gardening a miss for now. I know you really wanted to get out there and do a bit more, but health comes before a pretty garden. To be honest it looks a lot better now the lawn has had a second cut. The chickens look happier too 😊
    The jigsaw is nice. Very colourful and looks easier to do than others of late.
    Those sinks were a good find. Although now they’re so full of bright flowers you can hardly see them.
    Still lots of interesting things to photograph in the garden. It’ll all stop growing before too long, then fingers crossed you’ll be a bit fitter and more able to get back to it next year.
    You never know, tomorrow could be a totally different and better day 🤞

  2. It is good to listen to the body sometimes, trying to be sensible, changing the habits of a lifetime!
    Still some colour in the garden, not sure many winter bedding plants will find their way into the beds this year.
    It will be a nice jigsaw to do I think, getting quite a pile ready for the charity shop now!
