I've been on holiday for the past week and a half and I've been LOVING IT. The weather hasn't been very summery and the aftershocks have been rolling through the night, but despite that I've managed to take it easy and relax as much as possible. A go-away holiday is great fun, but best of all I like to stay at home and enjoy my house and my garden.
I barely made a dint in my to-do list, but I've:
:: dug up ground for a new flower garden
:: dragged the wooden sleeper edging from the old garden,
and used it to create a bench seat in the sun
:: planted out the new bit of garden
:: cleared and planted the front garden
:: worked in the potager
:: visited the garden centre
:: spent time with friends and family
:: helped a friend set up a new garden
:: read books and magazines
:: watched episodes of my favourite tv shows
:: worked on crochet and embroidery
:: tidied the house, in a leisurely way
:: arranged vignettes on windowsills
:: sat in the sun
:: sat in the shade
:: hugged my cat
I wish I could stay on holiday forever, but it's back to the grind tomorrow. How are you enjoying your summer/winter break?
