Hi folks, it's Friday already and in another week or so, we'll be halfway through the year on the countdown to Christmas and that's a scary thought, isn't it. Another week bites the dust and what a funny old week it's been. On Monday, I was despairing of the non-stop rain and wondering if Summer would ever arrive when lo and behold, I woke on Wednesday morning to glorious sunshine and just knew it was going to be my one chance to get some garden jobs ticked off the list. So we hit the ground running to rid the front garden of the "day of the triffids" mountain of weeds
and tackle this monster which was spoiling my view from the cubbyhole
kept company by the bumble bees, busy doing what bees do
while my Furry Partner decided to jump ship and chill out in the shade
Right on cue, the first poppy of the Summer appeared
and I was surprised to find this tiny lone specimen
the result of a seed blown across from my neighbour's garden
Sadly the summer weather is not forecast to stay, so I'll be heading back to the cubbyhole to enjoy the new unrestricted view as I tackle the crafty list again.
But first, a sneaky peek of a project with a floral theme, rather fittingly, which I'll be sharing next week. Have a great weekend everyone, whatever the weather and I'll see you all on Monday.
Toodle-oo for now

ReplyDeleteYou tackled the front garden monster well! Fun to read that you've enjoyed nature with it's bumble bee's and poppy's during your work in the garden. Looks like your Furry Partner had other plans for the day. Excited to see what you've created, the sneak peek already looks stunning! Hugs, Sarah
