I've discovered my "default" setting.......

Yesterday a delivery from the local garden centre arrived 2 days earlier than expected, that was a bit of a heartsink moment. There were 5 bags of stones, 2 bags of gravel and some compost. As me and DH watched, socially distant from the doorstep, we were wondering if any plants were going to be unloaded as we couldn’t remember which online company we ordered them from (many were out of stock.) Yes, out came trays of plants, it was this garden centre!

We did a bit yesterday, careful to operate in slomo to avoid exhaustion, and I persuaded DH that we need to do the rest tomorrow - I think there’s at least 4-5 days work here though, so my curtains will have to wait another while longer!

Oops! Wrong thread !!!!!!

Phew, no it isn’t after all! I thought I’d accidentally posted on one of those serious political threads - well that was exhausting, I need a cup of coffee and another sit down.

Gummie. I think that could be classed as a new skill

Ah I was going to sort the wardrobe/cupboards for charity.. but then thought where can I store it? as shops are closed... so it's all safely back in it's place.. waiting! Am gardening and quilting, mending, altering, baking..... but then that's what I did before! so no change here......

Without putting anyone to any unnecessary effort on this chilled out thread, could someone please tell me how to delete a post in case anything ever did end up in the wrong place? I have an oldish iPad and couldn’t find anything to help me! I would’ve thought it would be quite simple!

Glorybee if you post something inadvertently you need to ask Gransnet to delete it for you using the 'report' section in the grey bar above the post.
It seems quite appropriate for this thread doesn't it?
too much like hard work to do it for ourselves

Many thanks GrannyLaine, that’s very helpful. It is relevant for this thread and I meant to post it here but I’ve been flitting through other threads this morning and as on my iPad my post showed up as the first under the green op post as page 9, I thought I was still in one of the political threads, where it’s not quite so appropriate! I did spend energy trying to do it myself but I’m not too tech savvy - you’ve definitely earned an extra hour or two on the sofa for your input this morning!

Thank you Glorybee, gently resting as we speak......
(actually, a flaming 'delete' button would be useful)

I am going to have to make an effort this evening to move the recycling from the back to the front as it's being collected early tomorrow....the excitement might be a bit too much!

I have to do the same Pittcity. Ours has mounted up as there’s been a four week gap. There’s loads of cardboard, too, which I suppose everyone must have amassed.

Six weeks since paper and plastic has been collected here. I used up a week's worth of exercise jumping on it all to squash it into the maximum number of bags that they will collect.
Next week it's bottles and tins. I'm going to need a fork lift to move all the wine bottles

Embarrassing amount here too ??

It's so reassuring to learn I'm in good company in the CBA group. The first week of isolation, I cleaned the cupboard doors in the kitchen. I then gave the Utility/Dog room a thorough clean and bleach.
I asked Mr i to clean all the windows. He did so. Yes, the streaks are still visible, especially during this sunny weather.

The garden is looking better than it did but, it did have a long way to go.

I'm still in bed contemplating what I should do. I'm thinking perhaps I could, just might, check to see if there are any online grocery delivery slots. But, experience tells me that there won't be, so perhaps I won't bother. All this thinking has worn me out, so perhaps I'll stay where I am. Busy, busy!

There is a very large weed in an awkward place in the front garden and I'm contemplating whether to go and pull it out or not.
It involves standing on a wall, which could be rather dangerous.

It is rather pretty, feathery green leaves and pink flowers.
I wonder what it is.
Shall I leave it and see if it grows into a tree?
Should this post be on a gardening thread?

So much to ponder.

Heard on the news scientists may have a vaccine. It’s the last straw. Will probably have to wash hair and abandon the bib I have taken to wearing to protect PJs from food stains. Oh more decisions.

Well I really let the side down yesterday. I cleaned the conservatory windows inside and out! We are spending so much time ‘resting’ in the conservatory these days that I thought it might be nice if we could actually see the garden. So I think I will have to put my feet up today! I have found loungewear to be invaluable (sounds better than pjs).

Callistemon could it be cannabis? Maybe wait and see..... could put a whole new spin on CBA

I'm in danger of being drummed off this thread today. Not only have I already done an online grocery order (spotted while I was lounging in bed at 9.30 and too good to miss), but I've also crammed another duvet in the machine to wash.

That's it for today though, I'm spent. I'm going to do some serious reclining now and I'll get my man to peg the duvet out.

So sorry, Missedout, it looks as though I nicked your delivery slot. I won't rub salt in your wounds by commenting on your username.....

Laughterlines well quite. What are they thinking?
Was discussing the concept of this thread with Mr L just now and he's under the impression that nothing has changed for us and I'm always like this........ reader, I was shocked!
I thought to myself, "I'll show him" and then....... no, can't be arsed. Wanders off looking for a Kit Kat....

Maggiemaybe I wonder if you need to check your temperature? You may be coming down with something...

Definitely not cannabis, I'd recognise that!

I’ve had a productive morning of watching other people work. The bin men came today (they’ve not missed a collection, bless them) and then a van rolled up to deliver medical dialysis supplies on a pallet to next door.

There are so many laugh-out-loud posts on this thread, thank you, all.
