If you come on here looking for some mind-blowing conversation or profound words of wisdom, well you've come to the wrong place and will be disappointed. I'm just an ordinary bod who likes to share my day with anyone who cares to listen. Tales of my dogs, my garden, my family and happenings in my life that I feel might just be amusing....If you're happy with that, draw up a chair, light up a ciggie if you wish or have a cup of tea and make yourself at home.

Just a quickie
Trying my darnedest to keep up my blogging, Today the weather took a turn for the better, that evil North east wind swung round to South east, still got an edge, but not as bad, it was still a bit chilly on the beach.
I'd made up my mind to do some gardening to-day, I was a good girl and did just that, I think Ruby and Zak were also happy to lie out in the sun keeping an eye on things, lazy pair.
Some years back a large Beech tree went over in a storm leaving a stump, it has gradually rotted and I decided to-day I'd try pounding a bit more of it off as it is rotting real quick now. I made some headway but it'll be another year or so before it's rotted enough to completely get rid.
I moved some Sedum that had spread under the box bush and the box had spread over the Sedum, not a good combination as Sedum must have sun, so I moved it to a healthier spot.
Some time ago I ordered a rose arch and obelisk from Amazon, it has been sitting in it's original packing since it was delivered, Another job nearly done, I gave up after 3/4 way through, my hands ached with screwing the bits together. I will carry on with the rest of it on Monday, as tomorrow is Mothering \Sunday and I'm off to my girls for lunch. well folks that's it for now bed calls goodnight from me, Ruby and Zak. enjoy your weekend.
Thank you for visiting and please come back, Arlene, Tango and Ruby

ReplyDeleteThank you Beth, and yes we did have a lovely day. 12 of us sat down for lunch. loved it. !
DeleteArlene! (((MAJOR hug to you!))) I am so happy to be reading your posts again! Zac? He's new! or new to me, at least. Tell me about him or tell me which post to start with so I can catch up. And how is Ruby these days? Ohhh, I can tell by this entry that you are still up and at'em all the time. Good to hear! I've missed you and sorry I didn't write back for a longggg time, but you'll see what was going on. After this knee surgery coming up and the recoup, I should be splendid!
ReplyDeleteHave to say, I am sorry that so many of our old group just quit blogging and went on to FB or wherever. I was trying to do a blog walk and was astounded that almost every single person was gone. Toodie left me a note but she doesn't have her blogs, either, I guess she had an alert pop up for me, lol.
I'll see you again soon, promise! Sure have missed you :D Xoxoxo
....and PS/ Don't EVER change that profile picture. I've always thought it was the best photo I ever saw --- pure joy all the way :D
ReplyDeleteAh, thank you Jenny, I like it too. my babies :-)
DeleteHi Folks, I've had a very busy day and I'm tired, I will catch up with you to-morrow XX
ReplyDeleteHi Jenny, so lovely to hear from you again, I now now that you will pop up again when you can, I hope when you recover fully from your knee op and recuperation, look forward to you filling me in on what you've been doing. About Zak I blogged about him on 8th Jan so you can read all about it. :-] Ruby is doing fine never changes, as long as she has her bed, ball and me she's content, love her. !
ReplyDeleteI know that many have forsaken blogging for FB, a pity I did for a while, but much as I like FB I do love blogging that bit more. especially when I have loyal friends as the two or three that reply to me. Keep in touch please, XX and get well soon.
My you are a busy lady phew! I have always wanted a rose arch Arlene , you must let us see it when it's up. Wow I see you had a lovely Gathering for Sunday Lunch, how lovely. Had a few long walks with Lucy Sat and Sunday as it was a lovely two days.
ReplyDeleteGood to see you here take care
Hugs Sheila x
Hi Sheila, yes I've been popping back here a bit more lately I miss it, and as you see I've got Jenny D out of the woodwork to say hello :-) here is the arch it's only a cheapie metal one but when it's covered in Clematis [smirk] it will look beautiful, ignore the washing line etc . btw I've put plastic mesh on the first couple of feet up the sides to give the tendrils a chance, XX hugs from we 3.
