Yesterday I had a lazy morning, cleaned out the animals and tutored in the afternoon. It was nice. SO nice. Today I picked up my new rabbit, he is gorgeous. He has already escaped twice to find my girl (fixed) so I think the bond will be ok. I also planted my pear tree that has been sat in a pot for ages. I don't suppose it is the right time but we shall see.
I think I am going to out in the garden even if it is raining. Tomorrow it is meant to be ok rain wise. I will continue to fix up the aviary. Stuff needs re painting, cleaning and tidying. I also want to clear up my veg pots.
However I need to go to the vets too. House bunny needs a check up. Fingers crossed he is ok. Looks good to me.

Today I am so tired..........but I did get stuff done. Cleared the raised bed, covered it with membrane and put together another raised bed. I think I am going to turn the cleared raised bed in to a guinea pig run of some description. The other one is going to have a wildlife pond. I know it is all the wrong time of year for all of this but when I hurt my back it took a lot of time. So I am doing now. Not expecting anything to grow or whatever but it will be ready for spring.
I also started painting the shed and the aviary.
Moneywise I have spent too much. Get paid tomorrow but emergency fund is down to 400 pounds, the vets mainly. Some shopping.
But the CC is paid and my house savings are in tact. I do have to pay for Car insurance next month. But I am happy to stick that on the CC for a bit.
Tomorrow am out with mum but when I come back I will get on with the painting.

ooo Forgot to say house bunny is ok. Put on weight and looks good. He will be on antibiotics for ever and when they stop working.....well not going to think about it.

Took mum to the cemetery and sorted out my Nan and Grandad's grave. We haven't been there for a while, quite a while in fact. It wasn't too bad really and was an easy job in a way. What wasn't easy is you can no longer drive into the cemetery, and parking is permit only. I took a chance so might have a ticket but Mum could never have walked. It was bad enough from where we parked. Carrying all the gear was not helpful. To be honest it may have been the last time she went there. I can get about 16 buses I think. Hey ho.
In other news, the clear out continues, I am getting there. Tomorrow regardless of the !!!!!! weather I am emptying the shed.
Actually I just looked at the weather. !!!!!!.
