Be careful with yourself, Logan.

 

[Logan]

@MaryMary , thank you, yes i will.

 

[Upsy Daisy]

Good news @Logan , hope you recovery continues smoothly

 

[tbendl]

And wow Upsy looks like a gorgeous piece of property.

 

[Logan]

@Upsy Daisy, thanks

@tbendl That made me giggle. Nobody throwing up mud or compost or dancing (must say, he has some good steps). @Logan Don't worry about the plants. Make sure you can walk properly first. Ask your OH to do it. As @Verdun said, take your time to let it heal.

What a scorcher. We went to two parks, which is a record for me. To be able to sit in the shade to take in some fresh air and enjoy the wind are so nice.

 

[Upsy Daisy]

Evening all, wow what a hot day !!!

@Logan you had the cast removed just in time , bet you feel a lot cooler now
I understand how much you want to get your garden ready for summer, but it's more important that you are ready to enjoy it more, so don't go on a mad planting spree and overdo things......OK?

@alp it must have been lovely in the parks today....bet it did you a world of good

@tbendl , thanks for your nice comments How is your day going....is it sunny and warm over your way too ?

Had a lovely lazy day today , my sister came over with her adorable new grandson and they spent the day with us . My niece had to go into work for the day , and bless her she got quite tearful at having to leave him for the first time.....but we kept sending her pics during the day. Took him for a slow amble up our lane in his pram. He's now 6wks old and has started to give lovely smiles to everyone,

Have a lovely 'rest of the day' wherever you are in the world

Hi Upsy, it has briefly cleared and I'm hoping to hit a nursery on the way home for Canna's and maybe some Crinium and daylilies. We have had rain for days!
I'm supposed to be going home to vacuum but....
I figure moving dirt around outside is better than moving it around inside. Woopwoop!
How lucky you are to spend time with your sisters grandson. They grow up entirely too fast!

 

[Logan]

@alp OH has got a lot to do already, he'll be busy next week.
@Upsy Daisy yes it feels a lot cooler.

 

[alp]

@Upsy Daisy It's certainly a lot cooler outside than as @tbendl said, breathing in exhaust fumes in the house. I wish I had my own grandkids..

Trollius looks better today in the sunshine

In the park, there were only foxgloves

Ah, hang on, who's this nosy fella?

Signets next to their parents

Fresh air and nice view, cooling breeze - nothing compares ..

 

[Upsy Daisy]

Love the flowers and the wildlife @alp . Were you able to get so close to them or have you got a brilliant zoom lense on your camera ?

@tbendl , have to admit that housework comes in 2nd place to gardening too . Yes children certainly do grow up fast, holding babe to day brought back memories of my own brood when they were tiny.......where oh where do the years go

Sleep well everyone......well most of you ......no sleeping on the job @tbendl!!..... you've got a few more hours to go yet , I think

Good morning, everyone. It's quite windy outside, but is reasonably pleasant in the house even though quite a few windows open. Hope it's going to rain today. Quite a few of my plants are wilting.

 

[Logan]

Good morning everyone

[Verdun]
