Off topic - gardening madness moment

16 Replies

I decided today I was going to challenge the body to a spot of gardening after my bike fall 2 weeks ago and bruising just going down etc though left arm and wrist not happy.

So in my gun-ho way decided to tackle power washing of the patio slabs which some needed. I thought I would do 4 but blimey pressure washers and mess wow it was carnage. So 13 tiles later all the cream walls of house hosed down and me covered from head to toe in black gunk

I think payback might be coming my way tomorrow but a warm shower and a lot of prayers might keep me on track.

Hubby thinks this new toy might need to be banned in my hands.

Had said hubby took over and done it for you it wouldn't be a lethal weapon in your hands. I too have spent all day in the garden front in the afternoon and back in the morning doing northing as i have back ache and to be honest though i am recovering from this pneumonia i am still a long way from being well(whatever well means these days). xxxx

It’s just lovely being out in fresh air and enjoying the moment x
