Good morning everyone i hope this post finds you all as well as you can be.

I know its been a while since i posted and i have been busy trying to get the garden sorted out and my sons at the same time. I saw a consultant re; my knee and it turns out i have fluid on it,they took some fluid of it to check to see if it was infected which happily it isn't so now the next step is to find why i have fluid there. I am not even going to think about that one. I see the consultant in July and then we will see what he plans to do.

WE had a lovely holiday in Whitley bay marred only by me forgetting to take enough pregablin and becoming quite ill until the dr gave me some more and within an hour i felt loads better. Then my scooter broke down and couldn't be fixed so we had to buy a new one.£1100.00 poorer so it was not the ending we wanted.

Now i am looking forward to my next holiday next month to Cornwall and it is for two weeks so i migt just get some proper rest. My friend is joining us as well which will be lovely as she is such easy company to be with.

The garden is starting to take shape and i have done a few hanging baskets,only i could only do one at a time which i found very frustrating,but the four out the front are done and will look lovely in time. I have also put some dahlias in my back garden and got all the plants that was in the greenhouse over winter out and in the front. I have put dahlias in my friends garden across the roads front garden as well. I have potted on peppers and tomatoes so if they grow we will be inundated with them. I have spent a awful lot of time enjoying the sunshine as well and i have the makings of a lovely tan as well.

My Ra is still there as is the fibro causing me a lot of problems. My fingers are starting to bend quite a bit and they have been very sore of late. My back is still bad as well and sometimes i can barely move because of it. I am still very tired and still find the fatigue hard to cope with,but i am trying to pace myself which some days i can't do,but i try or as my hubby says "I am very trying" pmsl

Well i think thats enough from me for one day,the photo is of Alnwick gardens and i have never seen so many daffodils in all my life as there were there.xxxxx

Great photo, our daffs only lasted a couple of weeks and the bluebells just a few days. No doubt down to the extreme heat earlier in the month. My baskets are up and roses in bloom. This is the best time of the year. Then we're going SKI ING ( spending kids inheritance). lol

Lovely to hear how you are.

Gardening....well pottering has been my life saver these past couple of weeks. I love being out there as you any many others do. Have a smashimg time in Cornwall. Look forward to hearing how it goes. 🙂

Hi Sylvi - It is great to hear from you. I'm sorry you are feeling sore, but it sounds like you are still getting a lot of fun things done that you want to do.

I'm much the same way when I am getting a lot done in the house - I don't post much here either unless I can answer a question or something.

The gardens are beautiful! Have a great week
