Can you believe its been a whole month since I started doing my garden, I started off by black mailing my hubby to tidy the garden up as it had got into a right mess.
After Hubby got stuck in to get it sorted after black mailing him a few cans he got my garden ready so I could get started with my plan for a little flower garden.
I then went shopping with my Steemit money and bought a lot of pots and flowers, I have spent quite a few hours potting and re-potting to brighten my garden up. We had a few disasters after the weather changed and heavy rains flooded a few pots, thankfully most of them have survived and now they are starting to bloom.
I can see a massive difference, my garden now looks more alive and colourful. Its been hard work and caused me a lot of pain but its been worth it seeing all those gorgeous flowers that I have grown with help from you on here.
I feel like I have achieved something, and now when the sun is out I can go sit out there and enjoy it.
Thank you son-of-satire
Tidy! You are awesome. I would have given up before I started the work of cleaning haha!

So much progress! It's fun to look back and see how far it's come. When you're puttering with it every day it's easy to lose track, but the pictures (and our aches) don't lie.
You have done a spectacular job! Kudos to you and hubby!
(P.S. That pot with the face and feet cracks me up!)

You're welcome! Will be thinking of you when I plant the impatiens I picked up for the containers by my front steps. Yours are so pretty!
(Hint on the third pepper - up and to the left of the other two. Towards the top of the plant.)

A lot of people with depression can get low on it. Also people who are overweight - so double trouble for me! That's why I try to get out into the sun for a walk at least - even on an overcast day it can help.

I have the same problems, sitting in the house all day does you no good but when you can't walk far there's no where to go. I am on Vit D tablets but don't feel any better or maybe I do maybe its them that;s given me the energy to do my garden :)
