    Still feeling out of sorts & unsettled.
    Really not sure what that is all about.
    Maybe just a result of all the uncertainty all around & the niggling worry of what may/could happen.

    My g arden is really truly is a garden of doom.
    I have no grass.
    Chips in front & drive. Some chips in back & some slabs.
    All with lots of weeds.
    Then I have the dead trees propping up the broken fence.
    I kid you not.
    If I had the money then the dead trees & fence would go.
    If only......

    It is SO depressing.

    Stop worrying! :kisses3:

    The only things certain in life are death and taxes - so embrace uncertainty as the certain things are pretty crap! :rotfl:

    I'm doing OK, all things considered. Hope you're doing better.

    Got a bit of a surprise tonight when I went into the kitchen for a drink; a peregrine falcon walking around on my lawn, bold as brass, dragging something in its talons. I imagine I'm going to have the internal, working bits of a small bird waiting for me out there. :shocked:

    Except not so internal any more.

    Or working...

    I'm getting close to being able to do my own laces up, but it's still pretty sore and lumpy at times. Nature's way of saying "Don't do that..."
