. . . and it's already more than 3/4 done.
Loads of LOVELY pictures of loads of LOVELY things that have happened this week.
I LOVE gardening and I LOVE letter-writing. I'm very fortunate to have found Deborah, who LOVES the same things I do, and we have been swapping letters since January. Deborah sent me some sunflower seeds so that we could sow them on the same day, and watch them grow. Sadly neither my first sowing, nor my second, produced any plants. Fortunately is was a matter of third time lucky, so my sunflower plants are a good month behind hers, in fact mine have still to flower. This is how the tallest and most advanced looks today. By this time next week it will have the most magnificent flower - unless of course the weather decides not.
As the weather cools down into autumn, there's already a risk of frosty mornings, so my geraniums, which I've LOVINGLY nurtured for a few years now, need to come indoors for the winter, here are some of them on the lounge window sill.
Monday was a glorious day, with LOVELY sunshine, so the Green Man and I went out for a picnic lunch to a local beauty spot. I took the long lens for my new camera, which I LOVE, and was rewarded with this LOVELY shot,
and this is the view from the car window across the Common
My absolutely gorgeous GD5, whom I LOVE (and probably spoil) comes to us after school most Mondays. To my absolute delight, she too LOVES writing.
Earlier this month I picked all the tomatoes that were left on the plants, and I'm pleased to report that they are now all ripe (and some have been eaten), they taste delicious.
GD5 has an older half-sister, to whom I'm not actually related but LOVE as if she were one of my own. She has recently passed-out as a serving Police Officer, after following her dreams. Well done Cess.
And as the cooler weather approaches once more, the oldest LOVE of my life, knitting, re-emerges. I started this jerkin some months ago, but I rarely knit through the summer months, so it's only just been completed. I'm hoping it will be LOVELY and warm for the cooler months.
Have you been spreading the LOVE this week?
