What a busy week. Monday out with the boss over the common for a long walk then back home and a busy day in the house. Sorting out the larder and disposing of all those jars of jam etc that had gone past their sell by date or had lost their appeal. Reorganising and doing stock rotation of the honey, chutneys and other home made edibles. In the afternoon the kitchen and dining area got the works and the floor was given a good clean and mop with nick knacks and the like being cleaned and rearranged. Before I knew it the day was closing and with it getting dark by 5 o'clock there was time to reflect.
Tuesday was another long walk in the morning followed by a day in both gardens with lots of light digging and planting for spring and some final pruning. All that needs to be done now is to turn the compost heaps to aid aeration and give the whole effort some fresh air and new life.
Out with D in the afternoon and a very nice sunny day with plenty of blue sky and much activity in the garden with the resident robin turning over the fresh dug soil looking for food. The blackbird is still coming into the summerhouse to eat some of my dog treats.
Wednesday was a mixed day with the weather but with some sun, but quite chilly when it was not to be seen. Got grey as the day headed towards lunch time and lots of leaves to be swept up and put away to mulch. Hair cuts in the evening which is a time for the adults to chat and have a little socialising. Time for me to take advantage of the situation and gets some treats by making a nuisance of myself; in a nice way you understand.
A mixed week so far with much activity in the house and Halloween and then getting the bonfire for November the 5th on the agenda. Speak to you soon. May yours days be filled with that which you desire and not with what you don't want.
