im absolutley pooped,my back is killing me and i am in desperate need of a bath but feel good what i have achived today.
collected the horse manure which was some fantastic stuff and well rotted.
filled up the tin bath ready for my rubarb,
compleaty cleared out of plants and dug out the soil ready for my potted herb garden.
and weeded all the flowr beds.
also found a mouse in my compost bin
but took a fantastic photo of it.

We are re-arranging our garden, knocking down a couple of the aviaries, re painting the ones that are left.....so i thought it would be a good idea to get a paint sprayer thing! what no one told me was not to use it when the wind was blowing towards you  (common sence, i know...but im a women and wanted to play) the bloke next door couldn't look at me without laughing, i didnt know just how much of the stuff i had over my face!!!
Cant wait till i do all the fence aswell!!! |

They are great fun! and i think if you doing a fence it would be better, but i was doing the bits of wood on the aviary so it was going everywhere including all over me
I done one of the sheds yesterday (between the hail) and its much quicker than using a brush. |

Nothing and I'm a gardener. Decorating the kitchen & utility instead.

we are still doing our ****** garden! on the fixing up stage now, got the new patio down, just gotta point it, and build the bbq.
Then gotta start on the other side of the garden
Do you ever wish you'd never started a job in the first place? |
