GARDENING TODAY, SUNSHINE OR RAIN

 

Yesterday at the market, we kept hearing this Rooster crowing.  We thought it was someone's phone ringtone.

But no...

ABOVE: Look at that!  These people take their rooster to morning tea at a coffee shop every Saturday morning.

And yesterday they took him to the market as well.

Talk about a spoilt rooster.   It was rather funny. He's in a baby's buggy btw.

ABOVE:  These were the potato things we had at dinner last night.  They were truly delicious!

Something different to have now and then.

Right, back to today.

I'm hoping Steve can come over and give Stew and I a hand to move the water fountain to it's final position in the garden.

Then I can finish that garden.

The other thing on my list for today is to see if the guys can sort out my design wall.  Stew had a bright idea for it... so let's see if that eventuates.

ABOVE:  Well, I thought it was funny.  😂😅😊Catch ya later.

12 noon, and we have been very lucky with the weather today.

No rain yet, and we got the fountain moved ...

ABOVE: Between the two of them, Steve and Bex moved it for us.  We just stood and watched.

They did a good job.

ABOVE: We are very happy with it's position in the garden now.  It looks SO MUCH NICER there.

And our immediate neighbours over that fence like it there too.  

ABOVE:  Our little red headed spitfire, enjoying herself.  And Marley, who is a delight to see as well.

ABOVE:  Don't even think about not sharing ya drink with this child!  She can pack an impressive 'wobbly' when she doesn't get what she wants.

ABOVE:  She loves a sip of Diet Coke.  Good taste wee girl.

ABOVE:  Playing with some Christmas lights.  And just look at those oh so typical' kids in the background!  Give them a screen and they are perfectly happy.'

ABOVE:  When they left, they took Coco for a 'play date'.  I know Coco will enjoy being with them for a couple of hours.

We have to go out at 2 pm to pick up the extra bags of rocks we need.

We went over there this morning, but they were too busy to do the bagging right then.

Once we get them, we can finish off that garden.

My design wall WAS going in an alternative position in the sewing room, but once Steve arrived, he said it couldn't go 'there' as the shelf was not strong enough to hold it.

So, it's going on that blank wall behind my work trestle after all.

Stew will do that this afternoon as well.

For now, we are taking a little break.

I woke this morning with a chronic mid-back ache ... might has slept 'wrong'?  So, I've taken some painkillers, first time in about a month I've taken anything for pain.

12.15 pm, and here comes the forecast rain!  Not a problem... it can water me pots. 😉

We went out around 2 pm, picked up the rocks, grabbed more of those potato things from the supermarket, then picked up Coco and came home.

Then, in the piddling rain, we finished off the garden.  I'll show you the final result tomorrow.

It's now almost 4 pm, and we are both sitting down, multi tasking.... watching TV and working of puzzles/reading crap on social media etc.

Everyone does that eh?

I can't imagine JUST watching TV, or JUST working on my laptop!  

9.35 pm, and it's bedtime.   I can hardly keep me eyes open!  It's been a busy weekend, and they are the best sort.

Catch ya tomorrow.
