Ive decided to weed instead as I can sit down and do 10 mins then have a break. I will paint in a few days when the weather calms down. It's too hot.Aiming for a minimal spend 20222

Im going to do some tonight. Work are messing me around again for next year. Nothing ever changes does it!!!! Thank goodness for my friends, family, this thread and my lovely house and garden. At least we have nice things to keep us going. I've weeded over a third of my area. I will finish this over the weekend. V happy I have made a start.Aiming for a minimal spend 20222

It's too warm to be pottering in the garden, it's more like sitting in a shady spot, reading a book and sipping wine weather 😉Mortgage started 2020, aiming to clear 31/12/2029.2

I can't sleep. I woke up at 1am and now 2am. I have work then plan to continue to weed a tiny area of the garden which I am rather excited about. It is going to be v warm so I am going to wear a hat and long sleeves to protect me from the sun.Aiming for a minimal spend 20221

Try to find a way to relax as stress / anxiety affects sleep. I know it's hard with work as there isn't the structure at home, together with everything else going on.
It's already quite warm and has been for a few hours, I'm sure you will enjoy tending the garden.
No thanks button here or in landscape either!Mortgage started 2020, aiming to clear 31/12/2029.2 -
I agree the thanks button has been lost overnight!!!! lol. It is gorgeous already. It is going to be a scorcher, you can feel it already.I watered the garden and have left the greenhouse open as it's going to be warm. I have done much more weeding than I wanted to today. Ive washed two loads of bedclothes one day left then it's half term, and made scones, work have sorted me out after yesterday's mistake, one week to payday hurrah. Have a lovely day all.Aiming for a minimal spend 20222
