Late for work today...

Sorry boss slipped on some snail trail!! LOL what a morning, i know what you mean though when the sunshines i hang a sign in my kitchen window ' in garden' and thats where i stay even if i'm just sat listening to the birds....all is well with my world!

Too funny, greenfingers.
I'm quite opposite of you...I'm late just about everyday!
Don't matter what time I get up, I will be late, by at least a few minutes..I was even born late! haha...
No one even asks anymore!:P

No the feeling Once I go into my greenhouse I loose all sense of time. And I hate leaving the garden on a warm good gardening day Still we have to as it pays the bills LOL

Know what you mean. i have to get up 30 mins earlier now to sort the propagators, move plants outside for hardening off, check the watering and the vents. then I am on my normal schedule to be at work. then about now 9pm i remember to go and bring plants in put on propagators etc. no wonder I am tired.

I could spend all day every day in the garden too. Too bad work has to get in the way.
Glad you got away with your tardiness Greeny. You can always tell your boss you were cornered by ninja snails and slugs with machetes and had to fight your way free. :o)

Gilli - I think I'll try that one next time I get carried away in the garden and end up being late - with the summer just around the corner (honestly it is), I'll need a whole list of excuses!
Seaburngirl - I am up at 5.15am every morning to see hubby off to work, then click away on here for an hour or so, then it's out in the garden (if it's not raining). I love getting down the shed to see what seedlings have started to grow - it's like Christmas morning, you never know what you'll get till you take a peek. We look after our seedlings more than ourselves I think!
Donnah - the summer is a terrible time to be stuck in the office - I sit looking out the office window daydreaming of what's happening at home in my garden. (Note to myself - do not get caught by boss when daydreaming!).

Oh I know how you feel. I was the same when I was in work. I was lucky we had flexi time so I didn't have to think of excuses.

Now THAT is why I enjoy being retired! No more dashing about, just do what I want when I want. In the garden if I can, whatever.

When I was working, I lived my life at 90 mph. Always in a hurry, no time to stop and gaze at a flower, dash, dash, dash. So I do understand and send you workers a dose of sympathy.

I do wish people would stop gloating about being retired. my brother often rings at 7.30 to wish me a 'good' day at work as he is heading off to the garden after a leisurely breakfast :o( its not fair.

Sbg, the downside is that I am getting older!!!!!

How would you like to be called an 'Old Aged Pensioner'? LOL.

When managers are all washed out why do they get gardening leave? I want gardening leave.

Last night we were not allowed to leave work as there was still some space to be sold (ad space), I should have left work at 5.15pm, but unfortunatley we weren't allowed to go until 6.45pm!!! Needless to say I was not happy and made my feelings known this morning. But today, we did well so were allowed to leave early - I got away at 3pm - the sun was shining and the mild weather 'forced' me into the garden. It wasn't long before the lawnmower came out of the shed, for the 1st time this year! Then the lawn rake, phew I was warm when I'd finished. Today's gardening 'fix' certainly made up for being kept on detention last night! Spritz - I long to be retired, I can't wait, I'm certainly living my life at 90mph at the moment and relish every moment I get in the garden, only another 25 years to go til retirement....arghhhh!
