YAWN YAWN WAKEY WAKEY PART 2....... 2019

Morning everyone ,looks like a strong possibility of more rain today, we had a drop during the night as well .

If it proves to be a wet/ damp day then I will designate today being a 'housework ' day. Ashamed to say that the hoover and duster have taken 2nd and 3rd place to the garden lately.
Have a great day!

 

Morning! (Or Midday!) to all,

Late up today as had a bad insomnia night...gone 3am til I nodded off with help of a bit of Night Nurse.

Outside and it is mild, no breeze, dark and cloudy. It’s eerily quiet today but I love it. Heavy rain forecast all afternoon-hope it stays away.

Have just lifted a load of doronicum and geums out the front border to divide and pot up near the greenhouse.

Got some exciting works planned for the front garden in the next few weeks to make it more private (shut out the horror neighbours).

Have a good day y’all!

 

Good day everyone
I know, I know, I am very spotty with appearances. Been busy times lately with family etc. It is definitely fall here. No frost as yet but thank you for the reminder @Snorky85 to put the heater on.

Oh oh, gotta go - have to go to the hospital - grandson is there with pancreatic issues. See you later ...

 

Hope all is OK with your Grandson Lori .

 

He's being admitted to the hospital. It is a very new facility less than 5 minutes from my home and I have been there with other people umpteen times since it opened. These people have always tested, diagnosed, and cured everybody and I know they won't let me down this time.
I bought a 5 day parking pass that my son and the rest of the family can pass around and use to tag team visit. We try to keep the number visiting at one time to a max of two people and only in short segments with lots of time in between so this pass will save lots of money

Thank you for your good wishes.

@wiseowl please send some of that rain this way. Our guessers keep breaking their promise to send free water!

 

In my thoughts @CanadianLori .

 

Good morning all

Hope your all well, it’s just coming light here, looks dry but grey.
No afternoon off for a few weeks as our Manager and supervisor are on holiday AGAIN!.

I’ll check in on you all on my dinner at 12pm, have a lovely day all

 

Good morning all have a good day stay warm and dry and above all safe and well. God bless.

 

A jolly good morning to you all, hope everyone is in fine form today.

Sorry to hear that you've lost your time off @Flumpy...hope you get double pay!

The garden is calling me...catch you later...if the internet is willing!!

Enjoy your day.

 

Upsydaisy never get double pay here, the boss won’t part with a fart! Excuse the language , hope your enjoying your garden x

 

It is setting up to be a very nice sunny day. I decided to move the potting soil (25 x 20l bags and 1 x50l) out of one of the greenhouses this morning as the floor keeps getting flooded and I suspected the leak was under this column. I'm not supposed to lift much for a few weeks so I did it before the kettle boiled for my first cuppa and that way it doesn't count Now I can play with the low flow hosing to get the problem resolved and not break the rules

I think I'll play about with the wood oven outside today. I am messing about with gluten free recipes and have concocted my own gluten free flour mix and would like to try a few recipes with it. Too expensive during the week and during the day to bake with electricity so I might just go this route. Hopefully I'll get a nice collection of successful recipes for grandson number 3 to enjoy.

Haven't heard back from the hospital/kids about grandson number 1. He may have to have his gall bladder removed which is a giant relief to what was originally suspected-pancreas trouble. Apparently there might be perforations in the organ - never heard of this one - so being young, only 21, he'll recover quickly if they have to yank it out.

I hope everyone else has as good day a as the one I'm planning to have. Oh, and I have to be up and out extremely early and over to pre-op tomorrow so I may not show up for roll call tomorrow. So exciting so get this done with

Play and play safe!

 

Good morning everyone, have a good day, wrap up warm and dry and above all keep safe and well. God bless.

 

Morning all! Rained in the night but the wind out there now is gradually drying it up. Wont need to water the garden today.

Today has started better than yesterday. Yesterday my favourite fish, Bendy (named on account of his calcium deficiency (-previous owners poor quality food!) had gone to the fishy crystal clear nordic fjord in the sky. He was a lovely golden orf. Two winters ago (our first year of living here and inheriting the fish) i had to take him out the pond and put him in to his own tub in the heated greenhouse. The poor mite was getting stuck on the surface because of his bendy problems and weak swim bladder. Anyway, he survived and had an extra 2 years. RIP Bendy-I will miss watching you in the pond.

Got lots and lots of dividing still to do. Also need to find time to aerate the lawn and scarify and top dress it. Lots to do but feels like time before winter sets in is running out fast! Where has this year gone?!
