Hello, and thanks for visiting! A couple of months ago a good friend nominated me in one of those Facebook challenges you may have seen doing the rounds - 7 black and white photos over 7 days from your ordinary life, excluding people and pets, posted without explanation. I accepted the challenge, and enjoyed the process so much that I was soon wondering how I could extend it. This blog is my answer. The photos won't always be in black and white - I've long understood how important colour is to me - but I plan to adhere to the other rules of the challenge for a full 365 days and, in doing so, tell the story of the next year in my life. Knowing how I struggle with discipline, especially self-discipline, I imagine this process will throw up quite a few challenges for me but hopefully that will all be part of the growing and learning process. There will be little or no explanation posted, though I'll be happy to chat in the comments, and I hope you find something here to enjoy.
Lovely looking potted plants ready to venture out into a big..big garden...Well, no shortage of water is there..as l look through the Paddington Bear curtains, it's chucking it down, yuk! hate the rain..though when l got back from town earlier, came through the gate, and there was a dead mouse on the pathway..probably drowned..picked it up and put it in the wheelie bin...! Said a little prayer, went in and made a lemon tea!
ReplyDeletePour little thing! Glad you said a few words for it, too easy not to value our littlest friends.
ReplyDeleteI don't know about drowned mice, but I felt like a drowned rat at the end of the day! And yesterday was worse, and today worse still!! :o
The photo shows just a few of the plants we brought for this big planting job in, as you say, a big, big garden. It was hard work and the rain had made the soil heavy going, but 5 and half hours later it was done. All except the tree we were supposed to plant and couldn't because the lawn was waterlogged - literally pooling to a depth of 6 inches. No planting into THAT, the tree would've been as drowned as we were!
