Day 18

TFIF?

We don’t know where the time goes; well at least the days. The evening drags a bit. And I’m not sleeping too well.

Today busy with school work. To the accompaniment of

a cracking CD.

Then a bit of exercise and some gardening. Since this all started I have now been round the whole of the back garden and weeded every bed. It has been nice to have had the time to remove moss. The moss has become a real problem for the last couple of years. I believe though I don’t know if it is true, the mild winters haven’t helped kill it off. Anyway I am picking it off bit by bit. I also removed a rather leggy and woody lavender and replaced it with one from the nursery. A new Clematis Montana for the pergola. New colour still to show in the form of the Photina, Primulas, and the tulips have started.

When I first moved here, I was very disparaging about an old honeysuckle and suggested that we remove it. Mrs Henderson was quite adamant that it should stay and in recent years, I have been so glad that she did. Look at its architectural, gnarled beauty.
