    Aloha everyone,

    A brilliantly sunny morning and it was quite mild out there at 5 a.m. when I was doing some digging and weeding. After the full day of drizzle the other day the smaller weeds are very easy to remove. :blue thumb: Some of the brambles took more effort.

    Keep well :biggrin:

    Aloha!

        Good day
        It is sunny this morning and not expected to get above 84f which is so lovely!

        Granddaughter is still holding her own which makes Me feel sunny too :spinning:

        I've got lots of little chores to do and a favourite client is coming by to talk about making a dozen masks. Knowing her, they will be lots of fun to make as she is very creative. I'm looking forward to her visit.

        I hope everyone has a lovely day as I plan to enjoy :)

                As I have all I need and am expecting only maybe the postman, who has my written authority to sign for anything that needs it, out of deference for my frequent non-availability , nothing untowards or that is not safe can happen today. Just.... peace and quietude, housework and the internet. Bliss...

                    Aloha everyone,

                    I only did one hour of gardening before breakfast today as I was waiting for our grocery delivery. It turned up one minute early :heehee: at 7.29 a.m. All checked off and stored away - fridge, freezer, store cupboard. I have given them feedback about the order as the leg of lamb (special offer at £7.50 per kg) came frozen. It didn't say anywhere that it would come frozen so I'm lucky that I didn't need it immediately. We have guests on Saturday and I shall be marinating it in gentle spices (marinade includes ginger, garlic, paprika, freshly roasted and ground cumin and coriander, black pepper etc.) I prefer to marinate it for a couple of days but eight hours less will be OK. The leg was 200gm overweight but I shan't complain about it :lunapic 130165696578242 5:

                    Back out in the garden now. :blue thumb:

                    Keep well :biggrin:

                    Aloha!

                      Good day
                      It is cloudy and the guessers are telling us there is a 70% possibility of much needed rain. I do have the main sprinkler system running but would still appreciate some rainwater to replenish the rain barrels which in turn fill the capillary receptacles in the greenhouses.

                      Granddaughter is still quite ill but now expected to recover. :) She will need to have an operation when she is strong enough. She is in diapers which are a strong motivating factor to keep trying to move her legs. She can't walk and really wants to get strong enough to at least get out of bed and shuffle to the loo.

                      I finished sewing another top yesterday and decided to make a hybrid pattern out of two that I have here. And I'll probably cut that out today and maybe sew it later. The fabric store had some really great deals on knits and stretch fabrics and we all know that knits are very forgiving with pattern experiments.

                      Have a lovely day all :blue thumb:
