I'm embarrassed that it's been so long since I last blogged, life has kind of got in the way.
I've discovered the joy of gardening! The one thing about gardening is that it takes a lot of work and obviously a lot of time.
We've lived here twenty years now and have intermittently weeded, mown and trimmed the hedges- just doing enough to control the jungle out there. This year that all changed. It started with a couple of pot plants in our newly refitted bathroom, then I wanted to grow lavender to use to make lavender bags. Then it seemed like a good idea to buy four very cheap little tomato plants. Soon after I was buying herbs and various vegetable seeds.
It became quite addictive and soon I was gardening whenever I could find a few minutes spare.
John has been very supportive and so my little garden has grown...
It's become a early big job. John has been fabulous and has been busy clearing both front and back gardens. It has made all the difference, claiming back our space, but wow, it's been hard work with some major jobs (getting our huge conifer cut down, clearing our garage and removing all the rubble and broken shed at the bottom of the garden.)
I'll be showing more of our garden over the next few weeks...along with my other work in progress projects (still lots of sewing and crochet, plus taking lots of photos). We've also been out and about a lot recently too, so I'll be showing more of beautiful Cornwall.
So until next time,
Gillian
