Spring projects

Have you started any spring projects of late?

I felt really depressed over the winter, it seemed one of those tiresome endless winters to me, where spring feels like it’s never going to come. But I feel brighter now seeing the sun again and the flowers starting to grow in the garden. I walk outside and everything is bright and alive again, that’s something for me to smile about.

My home has fallen in to a forgotten and abandoned state, inside and out, due to my own lack of motivation, can’t blame anybody else other than myself. Some days I just can’t muster up energy to do a lot. But since spring and the brighter weather I decided to get out in the fresh air and try to start some spring related outdoor projects…

So I decided to clear the garden up a bit!

My progress over this weekend, clearing fallen trees, and ivy off the stone wall.
Sadly the ivy has damaged the wall, some of the stone came off with the ivy, I will try to work out how to fix this. Today I want to cut the grass, if I can get the old mower to start up lol.

I got it from this….

 

To this!

Very pleased.

I’m looking forward to seeing/hearing about your own projects.

  • I’m still living at my mothers house most of the time, I fully understand not wanting to do anything in the winter, I can become nearly inanimate. I’ve finally replaced some of the fence, the ivy and hawthorn had really taken hold. My son dug all the post holes as I felt the need for more of a managerial role. Still got gravel boards and post caps to finish.

  • Wow what a result! You and your son did a fabulous job, Roy, that looks brilliant. Do you want to do my fence too? Wink My fence has been drowned by the overgrown front hedgerow, one of these days I will need to dig it back out, and replace both the fence and the hedge which is more bramble than hedge.
