I asked if i could stay at home today as most of my work cant be done till Monday. It's fine so I am going to mow grass and plant petunias today and then meet a work friend for her birthday.Aiming for a minimal spend 20222

Bless you doingitanyway.
Two of my friends are having breakdowns at the moment with all the work from this nightmare year. I am soo grateful to have been able to make it (by the skin of my teeth). I am looking forward to a tidying weekend with no work at all.Aiming for a minimal spend 20222 -

Ok it took all day to mow the grass, my garden is big and blood sugars drop all the time in the heat so i had to keep resting. Then i started to tackle some weeds the weed pile is huge at the bottom of the garden. No petunias planted and there are about 20 of them. lol.
I cancelled going out as too tired. I will have tuna and rice and veg for tea.Aiming for a minimal spend 20221 -

I am and planted 10 of my bargain petunias today. They are just the bargain one's that were 50p for a tray with no flowers or buds yet so we shall see if they grow. I do hope so. I have 10 more to plant tomorrow.Aiming for a minimal spend 20221

I hope so they are looking a bit bedragged lol. Still I am trying. It has rained on and off all day. I had a two hour walk for lots of fruit. £23 spent. Am planning to rest for a bit then sort out my petunias.
All of the purple petunias have planted and i have slug pellets in too. I still have a few odd plants left over and am deciding which areas i can clear to put them in for next week. It is just so good to have the weekend off and not have to lesson plan.
I have eaten lots of lovely fruit instead of snacking on rubbish.
My plan for tomorrow is to vaccuum, mop, clean fridge.
Jobs for next week:
Clear the weeds from the paths
Sort my wardrobe and put unworn things away.
