Quick way to mow long wet grass? I cannot afford a goat. Quick way to kill weeds in big garden? lol

Wait til it dries, run outside and quickly now it!
Collect cardboard boxes from the supermarket, open up and place on top of weeds, weight down with mulch.

Have a lovely weekend chilling SW. My grass needs cutting too but I will wait until it’s dry. Quick way to kill weeds - a good spot weedkiller is boiling water which  I use for ones that come up between paving slabs.

I spent £38 lot on vaccine travel & food today so there is £60 left for food for the rest of the month plus emergency fund money. Loads of work to do but i took a day off as work as tired. I do feel safer now and am so grateful for the vaccine. Looking forward to the summer just hope i have a job. Job cuts are everywhere. How did people cope with this horrid uncertainty in the early 80s?

Still a good budget SW.
Try not to think about what ifs, it won't do you any good. Focus on what you have and how long your money would cover, there are jobs in teaching but maybe not as close and convenient as now.

Indeedy MF. I'm ok now. I was panicking out loud. Crackers faffing and panicking about what i have no control over. I have done some work this morning and achieved lots. I will have a break then will write lessons for next week. I am hoping all this Corona business will be better by the summer and we can see family and friends.

Same, SW! I keep having to remind my self that if you worry you just suffer twice.
