"Isn't it nice to think that tomorrow is a new day with no mistakes in it."

I've decided I'm not going to think about the hospital until nearer the time, although I've just had a reminder to fill in an online form that I've already filled in... so may need to call on Monday to let them know. 

Curtains in my bedroom are now the right way round, and my swimming stuff and gym kit has been sorted and put away. There's a pile of fleeces/waterproof running tops to try on and see whether they might be useful for dog walking. If I could sort the utility room out there's more chance they'd actually be used.

Two barrow-loads of logs are now on the porch, and there's not that much left in the log store - so hopefully I'll get the log splitter fixed, my mum's logs finished, and it back over here before I run out! Several barrow-loads of leaves raked up from the veg plot where I want to weed/cardboard/mulch and put in the leaf composter (which I must ask the gardener to leave rather than mixing into the compost bins). I leave them on the beds and grass (wild areas get left completely the rest gets picked up when mowing), but need to weed where they were in the veg plot. I also hacked back a viburnmum which won't thank me for it, but was getting out of control. So no cardboard/mulch done, and no planting of garlic/onions/beans/peas. Those will be a priority tomorrow, and I'll start pulling stuff up on the paths so I can deal with all the perennial weeds in one hit and then get the cardboad and bark mulch done. The strawberry bed is probably going to be one of the biggest challenges as it's hugely congested (and full of weeds) and there is still fruit (and flowers!). 

I picked a pepper, a tomato, and a padron pepper in the greenhouse. There are still a couple of cucumbers to pick, but I've turned off the water so will need to clear it soon (particularly as I want to start sweet peas). 

Dog has had a second walk, and he and the cats are now claiming it's food time...

I need to light the fire, and I'm not expecting to do much more than read my book and maybe have a bath and potter about moving things upstairs this evening.

Fire lit. Animals fed. Food in oven. Oil ordered (as I'm not currently using much, I've just ordered 500l as I know there is space for it, but done it on a long lead time to get a lower price).

I've also ordered 4 climbing roses - one for the new trellis, and three for some obelisks by the patio. I was sent a 15% off code, so it seemed like a good time to stop thinking about it and get on with it!

And finally worked out how to make sure the hospital knows I've updated my online data...
