Another year

Happy birthday mum x

My week.

HOPE

 PRIDE

ENJOY

READ

The above perfectly sums my week

HOPE, dark clouds above, looks like rain, Oh we live in one of the driest parts of England, clouds just to cool us down, no rain, keep hoping. Thunder storms forecast over the next two days, but not very near to us.  

PRIDE, England feels good again, football (which I normally would not watch) was good, the team and manager did us proud. 

ENJOY, I love tennis, and I am enjoying the matches from Wimbledon, two 5 set matches in the men's contest, top seeds falling along the way.

READ, I am losing myself in books, I loved The Sister by Louise Jensen. The Lie is another good book, I'm half way through.

No photo, but love should be in the mix, my wonderful hubby and daughter, who everyday ensure I'm good. Lovely grandsons, who all are beautiful and growing up so very quickly. 

Bits and bobs

Grace relaxing

This spider plant is huge

I cut one stem of babies off and potted up, they will go to our local charity shop soon. 

 Air plant loves it in here, growing well. 

 Orchid doing well

I've had this for two weeks now

 Cut flowers from the garden.

Do you remember rain, 

we have not had a drop for a month

 How I long for this view.

Finally, I have loads of seeds, many given free with the garden magazines I purchase, so there are 12 packs here, if you leave a comment on this post, I will pop your name into a hat and choose a winner. Only UK bloggers please, not sure I could post these overseas.

Park walk.

I walk through this park twice each day, early in the morning and then early evening, we are so lucky to have this so close to our home. The wild flower meadow was redone this year, it's stunning, the gardens are weeded often. The council is allowing the residents to chose how to replace the dated play area, it will still be a play area after it has been updated, it's an area where all our grans sons have loved playing.
