Spring rules
Aargh! Spring rules : I must remember to enjoy every spring day, marvel at the blossom, peep at all the daffodils, say hello to the Camellias, and the sweet little blue forget-me-nots, do my Albeniz piano practice every morning...
And try not to nag at myself, or feel despondent, or get too badly scratched by rose thorns. And in case I forget, I should also do some of the following :
- Pot up the Lupin divisions.
- Pot up self-sown Lychnis from driveway.
- Plant the Daylilies by the Herb Spiral.
- Drag out the last bags of leaf mould, scatter around.
- Drag the new bags of autumn leaves underneath the trees by the pond. Make sure they have holes in them.
And it might be nice if I didn't scare myself completely by writing lists of more than three items. Hmm...
Much later...
Humph. I did my best. Unrewarding work, cleaning up the orchard roses. Definitely should have been doing this every year - it's my own fault there's so much mess. Wish I could drag it straight to the bonfire (there's a short fire ban).
The weeding and planting was enjoyable, but I didn't get around to shifting the leaf mould. And oops - forgot to wash off Pebbles's duck poo, which is fading fast, hee hee.
