...and a good weekend

One very constructive weekend later:
I have mended my broken doorframe – admittedly my father and grandfather would have chuckled at the bodge-job I’ve made of it, but at least it is nailed in place again now instead of hanging loose and tripping me;
I have turned out all my winter clothes and put away all my height-of-summer clothes;
I’ve turned out the linen shelf (since I was turning out the rest of the cupboard anyway);
I’ve also cleaned and put away my sandals and got out all my winter shoes;
Cleaned my bedroom floor;
And planted about half my spring bulbs, in the rain - getting very muddy in the process.

What a bunch of early-autumn jobs!

I have a touch of backache today, as that was a lot of bending and stretching and crawling around on my knees. Now I’m off to find a bus to Brentford and have tea with a friend.

It's the winter woollies I'm getting out; autumn here, and a wet and windy one so far. I always keep some lighter things out all winter in case of mild days, anyway. I've noticed a lot in recent years that my really heavy-duty wollies get less usage; last year was the first proper wintry winter in a decade...
Back okay again today - in time to do rest of bulbs this evening!
Glad the wee package arived.
Take care!x
