The rain seems
endless. It’s been raining all weekend & still it rains. It occasionally
stops just about long enough for the stone paving of the patio area to dry out,
but then it is darkened once more as yet more water descends.
We’ve not done much
all weekend. The weather doesn’t encourage you to want to venture out
unnecessarily.
The edges of the flowerbeds
are puddles but at least we haven’t got the lakes we used to have before we had
the garden redesigned. When our gardener was last here, over a week ago now,
she planted some daffodil bulbs she’d taken out from under the silver birches
into a couple of large pots. I did contemplate watering them in. After all the
compost was fairly dry, straight from the bag. Within a couple of hours it
started to rain. I'm sure by now they’ve had more than enough water.
I’m having a lazy
day today. The Fox is making a sausage casserole so all I’ve done towards
dinner is peel some spuds to go in. The meal should plop away while I’m having
my head massage later today. In the meanwhile I’ll play a few games on the
computer, catch up on friends’ blogs, hopefully finish my jigsaw, maybe even
read a bit – a life of idleness.
