Round 1 done, plus s&s the kitchen.
I am going to gather my allotment gear, including the strimmer, and head out - after putting on sun cream & insect repellent!!

Morning! Sorry I was MIA yesterday!
I got busy in the morning getting stuff done so I could have the afternoon off for the street (in your own garden) party for VE day, we went out at 3ish and I came back in slightly drunk at 10pm  it was a fab afternoon and really cheered us all up. We didn't get up till late this morning and I am feeling a little delicate but need to get on!

Today I would like to -
WM x2
Look at my bed again, now squeaking as well as wobbling 
S&S Kitchen
Sort out the 'Go Area' (where we keep shoes, bags, accessories - anything we need when we go out of the house)
Money/Budget Juggling
Start a Toots list!

Lots of positive vibes too all

An hour and a half has been spent in the greenhouse potting on.  I got so hot.  Having lunch now.

had a lie in and am pottering, though a fair chunk of my time has been munching a HUGE frog... stuff I have been intending to list on flea bay (when I get around to it) has been listed!  Wooty wooty woot woot.  Even if it doesn't sell this time around relisting is a doddle.
I've also listed something we were chucking out at work - any 'profit' will go to back into school funds.  And they do know I have it to sell.
If pegged out bedding etc.  and washed up.  But DS came home from work and I could smell grease (yuk) and the smoke alarm went off so I'm quite reluctant to walk back into my kitchen *sigh*
I need to move as I am stiffening up - I suppose I should go and face the music.
Oh Round - I too have been hoiking Goose Grass out of the front side border.  Round here kids call it 'sticky bud'  - chances are I have it in the border because they brought it home when they were younger!

Well that's one in the eye for the Wide Awake boggart! I've been to bed this afternoon and SLEPT. This is something I would normally only do if I was ill - so I've got my fingers crossed that it was lack of sleep catching up with me and not another bug heading my way .  By my reckoning I'm due a bug: January was worst D&V I've ever had; March was worst sore throat I've ever had; now it's May!!! I'm due a bug. Experience would suggest whatever it is it will be superlative  . So I am really hoping that I'm just tired.

Valli - it's awful stuff isn't it? I don't mind a weed or two - eg I leave a few nettles for butterflies, but that goose grass smothers everything. I couldn't believe how much I pulled up. The more I looked, the more there was. The other back border grows ground elder and the front borders are terrorised by bindweed.

Wow! The power of flylady: I'm talking gardens like a grown up!

Rabbit hutch cleaned out.  Gin (finally!) sourced so rhubarb gin has been started.  Chicken satay for tea with the batch of sauce I made double of and froze half.  This makes six portions so more for the freezer!
No bids yet but LOTS of views...

Hi all

Busy couple of days here, a little studying, lots of fence and gate painting, lots of laundry done, and some sitting quietly in the sun.  As Round would wisely say, just being.  I have been worried about finishing my coursework for the qualification I need to do then I read something about focusing on the plan rather than the end goal which makes a lot of sense.  I am going to just keeping doing a bit every week.

DS1 lit the fire pit last night and we gathered around and chatted about nothing much.  All four of us with a bit of music and a few drinks, no phones, gadgets or other distractions, it was lovely.  By 9pm it was really too cold to stay out even with the fire.

I am having no trouble sleeping at the moment, getting out of bed on a morning is a challenge though!

pigpen

5 loads of washing done.
1 load of undies and socks through the dryer.
DW x3

1 binbag of rubbish gathered from the girls room

2 apple trees hacked to chippings.. CF planted them.. I have binned them.. it was like a wave of light took over.
Stuffed toys stuffed in the void under Pixies bed.. and a box of papers put under a bed and the suitcases put away.. The bedroom is looking much emptier.. so much more to sort and fling.. it needs a good vacuum and sort in there. I need to get rid of so many toys.

MIL is in hospital still.. she has been put in isolaton after developing a temp..
