Going back to work last Monday actually gave me a chance to rest and recuperate a little to be honest!!
I will keep it pretty brief for you all and share a few pics too.
So the second week of my hols was extremely busy....even more so than the first week.
Helping a friend to move a ton (literally) of gravel.
Helping same friend sort out her shed and fill the empty ton bag to the brim with rubbish.
Still helping the same friend sort her friends garden out as it had no purpose and she didn't know where to start.
That was without the bit of time I did get to spend down the plot, helping my Dad lay some grass and an emergency vet visit!!
As you can imagine I didn't get quite as much done as I wanted with all the helping and there is still the potatoe patch to be sorted but I'm still pretty happy with everything!!
You can see in this picture that I have the middle stretch yet to prepare, this will be where to potatoes will go this year so I can weed as I plant. |
I know you've seen this side already but it now has a wonderful grass path down the middle!! :-) |
It's been a weird week weather wise with sun, heat frost snow and hail....kind of normal for us Brits I guess!!
Hope you've all had a good weekend.
.
No,wonder you were shattered.
ReplyDeleteit's exhausting just reading about all that work...lol Hope the emergency vet visit wasn't anything too serious
ReplyDeleteI think I realised as I was typing everything just how busy I had been!!
DeleteYou've been so busy and it's all looking good. I seem to have lost my gardening mojo, I think it's because I've given up the allotment, I haven't even sown my tomatoes yet. I really must get a move on with things.
ReplyDeleteReally hope you find your mojo again Jo, I always find things have a way of catching up so don't worry too much about being behind. My tomatoes haven't even germinated yet!!
DeleteGoodness you have been busy. We made a start at the weekend, it was lovely to be out in the garden xx
ReplyDeleteI always love it when I first get started, yet at the same time always feel overwhelmed by it all.
DeleteEvery year I see your work begin in the spring I think I should do the same with all of this land I have. every year I end up doing nothing. One of these times I hope I'll finally use your example and get motivated.
ReplyDeleteHope you do find the motivation at some point Ratty, there's nothing as satisfying as eating something you've grown yourself!!
