Alive!!!

Well the sunshine has certainly bought my little corner of the world to life.
Yesterday there was a real buzz as people came out to work in their gardens, wash their cars and generally potter about.
I haven't seen so many people out and about for months.
Andy mowed our lawns and DD tidied up the borders and filled in a few gaps with new plants and today the garden furniture has come out of winter storage ready for our barbecue later on which we are having instead of a roast Sunday lunch. I had planned on doing that tomorrow when DD isn't at work but....and you could have knocked me down with a feather....Andy has said that as it will be hot again we will have salad with cold meats. I'm up for that.

Although I wasn't outside yesterday I did get some jobs ticked off the list including altering that second pair of curtains for upstairs. I promised DD they would be done before she went back to work and I just scraped through....lol.
I also got some patterns cut out ready for more dress making and all the laundry is done.
Today I have put some chicken to marinate in fajita spices and made a potato salad and a Greek salad...minus the olives which we don't like and all I have to do now is bake a baguette and we'll be ready for when DD gets home from work.

I hope you are all having a fantastic Bank Holiday weekend.
