Hope the tree felling goes well Dove. We have had to have large trees taken down here before ....I spend the next few weeks feeling like the sky is about to fall in when I go outside ......its a strange sensation that makes you want to duck or put your arms over your head. But new planting possibilities with new conditions are exciting indeed.
Nearly there Wsong .....remember "it'll be lovely when its finished"
How many more sleeps Hosta
Am required at the mines this afternoon - best see if I can find some suitable attire. Haven't worn heels for weeks
I'm not sure what happened today. There haven't been any posts coming through but now that I've sent one, there you all are!
Hello everyone. We've had a stinker today and the air conditioner has had another workout. They are predicting a "southerly buster" this evening. Hope it does come and brings some southerly rain with it, Ive emptied the tank that I use for the veg garden so Hubby braved the hot windy day and turned the bore pump on and filled the tank again for me. The winds were described on the TV as gale force and the temp was 34c on Hubby's weather station. Everything in the garden is looking very parched and limp. I'll try to get up early tomorrow and walk around with the hose to rehydrate everything.
Another weird nights sleep. Got up about 2 went back around 5. Only been up about an hour feeling very muzzy. Must get out of this so might have to have a sleeping tablet of some sort......any ideas?
Hope tree felling going well Dove. Look forward to before and after pics.
Hope all poorly peeps are getting better.
Very best wishes to you and your son RB, big hugs xx
Just been up the road on my bike to post a letter - brrr - isn't it cold after our oh so mild autumn? (Sorry Pat - my garden and I both struggle with the heat as well - would much rather be a bit chilly & put on a jumper than be wondering just how little I can get away with wearing... )
SGL - I use the herbal sleep remedies occasionally. They don't always work but I sometimes find that using them for 2 or 3 consecutive nights can reset my sleeping clock.
Dove - hope the tree fellers (or was it only two - ) are doing their stuff. If you have a log burner or open fire ash burns really well - nice and hot. If you haven't - remember your friends...
Heaven is ... sitting in the garden with a G&T and a cat while watching the sun go down
