I have had a very busy day. It started with a 3km run and 2km walk with my parents dog and then another 3km walk with our new puppy Buster. We had to say a very sad goodbye to our Ollie in July last year. It was one of my saddest days and I miss him terribly. He was 16 and had a great life. Anyway Buster came into our lives in October and he turned four months old yesterday.
I then spent three hours in the front garden weeding, pruning and trimming the box hedges. It is meant to rain for the next week and I wanted to sort the garden. The back garden needs lots of work but that will need to wait another week.
I did all the washing and hung it out undercover and I will do the ironing tomorrow. I spent much of the afternoon harvesting the seeds from my sweet peas. They are one of my favourite flowers and I have them growing everywhere. They can grow wherever they like and I will not pull them out. I love the delicate petals and the beautiful scent and they bring me great joy. There are a few flowers still blooming and I picked some today to have them inside. I also picked a big bunch of hydrangeas and dahlias. Having fresh flowers inside the house also brings me much joy.
Next I cooked dinner and tonight I am going to curl up with my new book The Family Upstairs by Lisa Jewell.
So pretty. I've never been successful with growing sweet peas. Maybe this year I should try again
So sorry to hear about your precious Ollie. Never easy saying goodbye to a fur kid. Enjoy making new memories with Buster
Oh my word! I’m exhausted just reading about your day. How in the world do you get all of that done? I’m so sorry to hear about Ollie.
I love the close-up view and detail of your sweet peas. it’s a beautiful photo
