A addition to future project plans
I am much better at doing projects than doing maintenance.
Currently I have three projects going on in the garden, all at differing points of completion. The new flower bed in the corner of the patio now only needs slate to cover the weed suppressant, then plants can go in.
The boarder near the summerhouse has not progressed since it was blipped. Next is weedkiller the grass and the weather has been against this. This and next week looks promising.
The third project is sorting out the existing patio flower bed that has never been very successful. It needed cleaning and clearing of stones and waterlogged soil. I started this about three weeks ago but it was so foul that I gave up. It sat there, critising me every time I walked past it until Saturday when I finally cleared it. Part of this project is also to remove more patio stones to enlarge the bed and also to put in more drainage. Today was stone moving day. This was hard work, they are very large Indian sandstone and securely concreted in. A lot were concreted onto other paving stones and bricks that were used as a secure base, making them even heavier.
Anyway I almost finished it, after about 5 hours solid work. Sitting here now with my aches and pains I have decided all future project plans will start with - "Remember just how old you are, and ho old you feel"
