Thank you everyone for popping by.
Yes, it was beautifully sunny and warm here today. The garden is running riot as are the squirrels. Three squirrels are back and making me smile.
I am quite sure where to start with tidying the garden. I think it will be back to my 15 minute efforts.
I am still not settled again on the meds. It seems such a waste that there is no way for the wasted meds to be reused. I am still disliking being out of the house so that's my focus this month.
What has really upset me is the waste of young life in London at the moment. I can't imagine how people feel in those areas. Where will it end?
Take care

The stabbings in London are appalling and it seems to be spiralling. The powers that be are heightening the "stop and search" by the police but I have to agree with those commentators that believe a lot of the trouble is being stirred up and made worse by social media.
I think your 15 minute garden sessions are the way to go at the moment Pauline and sound sensible.
Have a good weekend. XFinally Debt Free! - July 2016 🌟

Hi everyone . The London happenings is tragic. Me and my family have been campaigning due to the loss of my brother murdered in the East Midlands to stamp out these terrible unprovoked attacks,
Nothing has been done, I have even been to help when they changed the victims code, the victim has no voice you see when they are no longer here either, In My area the MP has employed a Pa who has a son who is carried a sentence for Murder ,so yes there is no JusticeDebt £10k , HMRC £3K old debt £4k Jan 2021

The London stabbings are awful and I really hope the police can find some way to get on top of them. I don't know if it's gangs, social media, or not enough police officers, but it's truly frightening
.
Little and often is definitely the key to keeping on top of the garden. I'm glad your squirrels are back.
Finding the right meds can take time but it's worth persevering.Finally Debt Free After 34 Years, But Still Need to Live Frugally
