    Well tea for later is sorted and I've done me lunch. Now for about a billion layers of waterproof clothes............off to work I go.

    Free plants are OK.

    I rescued several 'stragglers' from the compost heap yesterday.

    :D some lupins, some synchinchy (SP?) and some hardy geraniums.

    Free is better.

    Lunch is a cooking (eggs) and I've got a wash on for the garden. The sun is out. :)

    Mr Me came home with a takeaway last night, so need a bit of a meal plan shoogle.

    Doglets all good too.

    No spends for me yesterday.

    I also brought home a free filled roll which had sat out all night for the chooks, very happy they where, rewarded with 3 eggs.

    Rescued plants planted, willow cuttings from a chum (left inside gate, how lovely) soaking. Not sure what I'll do with them but the garden is a WIP.

    :)

    Happy Monday folks.

    Another work day for me today, 8 hours of lovely paid lovlieness.
    Then a walk with les mutts and some DIY in garden as one of the sheds needs attention.

    Our duvets have been out drying over the weekend - all in prep for the final push to move to the new place!


    Put OH's trousers on the line too - huge load as I've neglected the washing lately!


    Lovely sun & wind will do their jobs and all will smell fresh by this evening!
