Nice Day

What a wonderful day, I’ve been out in the garden 3 hours this morning, my husband as well as my back told me to take a break.
Just had my lunch, I really want to go back out there, but my back is saying no, I have work in the morning and that can sometimes be a strain on the back
The sun is still shining although it’s dropped a bit colder, I’ll have to so some sewing instead and rest my back, there’ll be other days. It’s still only January.

I pottered about the garden this morning too, taking photos and planted my 2 winter jasmines. Front garden still too wet to do anything but it was pleasant in the sunshine in the back garden and I spotted a few daffs bulbs coming through.

Early this morning I thought it was going to be much too windy for the garden but on our return from the park Sophie and I spent about 3 hours outside. Spotted some snowdrops in the front garden and also little purple flowers, primula I guess.Lots more shoots under the hazel, crocus I imagine but it's exciting waiting to see.

Yes it is exciting Ginellie...especially when you cant remember planting them in places !!

Glad it's not just me who can't remember what bulbs are under what plants....I've only got pots, I'd be hopeless with a whole garden!

I agree, there are things coming up that i can't remember planting or what they are even if i did plant them. Is this call a senior moment.......

I've been in my garden this morning for a while, i notice a snowdrop in my garden the other day, and a couple of crocuses in bud, it cheers me up at this time of year to see the odd flower in bloom.
