morning ladies A lovely cool start to the day so far. I'll go and mow the lawn shortly and make the most of it.
Two summers ago I built a garden and got rid of a lottttt of concrete fill the previous house owner had used to try and make a fish pond and a wall. The concrete was from the driveway she had moved away from the main road (made sense, was really dangerous where it was). Now it's the other side of the garden's turn. I have FINALLY convinced MrK the wobbly bits of concrete spread out for seating and used for heaven knows what are dangerous and need to go. I'll do the same as I did with the other garden, pick away at it over time and put half (maybe more) into garden and the rest into lawn. The last garden needed a digger for the final bits lol but I don't think this side will be so bad. There are no massive shrubs to be pulled out this time and no concrete buried in the soil. And when that is done I will have down one side of the house to do and the gardens will be 'done'. As if they are ever done lol but you know what I mean. I'm so excited to get this part done, it's taken 10 years to get this far. And most of that time was convincing MrK things had to change, that we couldn't live with massive amounts of concrete fill on either side of the property. So you can guess what this summer's 'project' is lol.
Yesterday I tidied my sewing away but I may have been too quick in doing that lol. I've dug out some Christmas fabric to sew a caddy as Christmas wrap for a plant. I must get on with my tui, it's sitting there waiting for me. Will get the Christmas sewing out of the way first.
Time to mow the lawn, love living rural
Happy crafting
