My Place

Hi guys,

I just wanted to have a thread where I could talk about things that make me happy without bothering anyone else.

So on Sunday a week ago I planted some seeds into a metal tub. Some veggie seeds. Carrots, garlic chives and although it’s not the season for it I threw in some cucumber seeds.

Well yesterday, only a week after planting I noticed my first little green shoot. Then today, there are a bunch of green shoots. Funnily enough I think it’s the cucumbers that have come up first. I may have to make a cloche to help them grow in the cooler weather. The tub is sitting on a concrete path so hopefully that will help keep the soil a bit warmer. I moved them a bit more into the sunshine today as we noticed that the carport was casting shade on them quite early in the afternoon.

I am so happy to see their green little faces pushing up from under that dark earth. Gives me hope in all things. I love to watch things grow. It makes me happy to think that I have played a part in that.

Every day I water them and have a chat with them. How are you today my seeds? I hope that you will grow soon! Now I can encourage them to grow bigger and stronger.

I can’t wait to set up my other veggie garden and grow more things. I am especially looking forward to planting my tomatoes come spring.

Hi, how are you going? Did you get the oxygen concentrator yet? Any news on how Spanner Cat is getting along?

I am feeling a lot better this week. I think the danger of going manic and ending up in hospital has passed. I worked pretty closely with the clinic and got medications to cut it off at the pass. I can’t afford to get sick right now. I have a cruise coming up the beginning of May

Hey there @Oaktree 😊💜

I am very pleased to say that the oxygen concentrator arrived a couple days after easter, and I have been able to do a lot more with a lot less cardiac symptoms since its been in use 🙂 🙌

Little Spanner Cat was doing awesomely last time I saw her which was on around the 28th of March, when she sat next to me and played almost the entire time! Everything Cats! Spanner Cat update 🙂 This hopefully will link to the last post I put up of her xx

Thats so great to hear youre feeling better, and managed well with your team to catch the change - that is awesome! And yes that does make sense regarding the upcoming cruise, and wanting to stay well 🙂 xx

Sounds like something really lovely to look forward to! xx
