Normal blogging will resume imminently.
The rain has stopped but the ground is still really soggy. I went into the garden to have a look but was daunted by what I saw.
Not that I was able to do anything about it, if I wanted to, as outer-garden commitments are demanding attention and must have their needs met. That and I’m getting a bit knackered.
How I had my zucchini today.
I think there is more out there, but there is none in the fridge because I chopped them up and fried them and added them to our Chinese takeaway!
Come again soon – the garden can’t be without attention for much longer and the guilt won’t let me stay away!

Take a deep breath. Step away from the tools. Give yourself a break. It’ll all still be there in half an hour. Make a list, break it down. I hear a note of anguish here, and I remind you: you’re in charge, not the garden! You’re doing great!
Thanks Kate. It doesn’t help that Christmas and the holidays are just weeks away, but the best advice I ever had was “how do you eat an elephant? – one spoonful at a time” so slowly but surely I will get there – one step at a time and maybe some things wont get done at all and that’s ok.
Thanks for your encouragement.
Cheers Sarah : o )
Hang in there. Sending you good wishes 😊
Thank GOODNESS someone elses garden looks like mine! I feel SO much better now :). Sarah, your honesty is my happiness. Everywhere I turn there are weeds up to my ears and 4 acres of weeds is a journey too far in my poor pre-Christmas addled brain. The temptation is to go and hide under the bed but I am resisting and am steadfastly putting my head down and doing 1 thing at a time. I figure 1 thing is going to be 1 less thing I have to do tomorrow…who knows…one day the “things” might stop! HA!!!! 😉
