I did it, window washer, and yellow bit

1 When you have 2 days off and a lovely woman from your FB garden group offers you FREE irises!! What would any proper gardener do? You called it...I made a new garden bed. 20 x 3 ft !! I dug out the sod myself, and planted a few other lovelies besides irises.
Having a flower bed in the backyard started a few years ago. We had an extremely steep backyard and Mr P brought in 100 hydraulic dump trailers of fill, then a few more of topsoil. This dirt had one blub and 3 rocks!! The rest was beautiful black rich soil to which I added 3 bags of garden soil for good measure. Fingers crossed this garden likes it new space and fills in quickly.

2 When you polish the windows and can see outside. Oh it's not smokey after all. 

3 A lovely new echinacea that I recently planted. I think the yellow is rather striking. I can't wait for more buds to open.

snuggles, plants, and meal planning

1 When you have an early start to the day and your sweet cat comes and snuggles you.

2 The gardens need some new plants. What are your favourites?

3 Mr P has found permanent accommodation where he is working. That sure makes life easier for him. Time for me to make some frozen meals!!

sleeping, grumpy, and paint job

1 We finally purchased a new mattress. Yes, finally, a good night's sleep.

2 I felt a bit grumpy so headed to bed early. My guy cautiously opened the door asking are you okay? Do you need anything? I said I'm not really, just tired. Tea would be nice. So my sweet guy brings tea. But he's chewing something and I smell the sweetness of cake! So he brings me a little slice of red velvet cake in bed.

3 Finding satisfaction prepping and starting to paint the main bathroom. Pictures to follow.
