When I was hanging up the washing in the garden I had plenty of opportunity to notice how many weeds we have. At least I'll have plenty of time to do weeding now, so I can get on with some when I'm feeling 100%.
I'm obviously feeling better as I've been sorting out rubbish and doing washing today. So as my working hours have been drastically cut I can focus on gardening and spring cleaning the house . Finally Debt Free After 34 Years, But Still Need to Live Frugally

Sending birthday wishes, HHoD. I'm sure your garden will look lovely with the extra time you have to spend on it. It's good therapy & provides fresh air & exercise.....as well as a free boost of vitamin D if the sun's shining.
