Spring

Spring is full of distractions. Every morning I wake up get dressed and think about all the things I want to achieve that day. So many jobs need to be done in the house and I promise myself I'll stay inside and get them done. Then I make a coffee and just go out to check on my gardens. Three hours later I come in exhausted and starving. So, what happens?

The peach trees and in blossom and covered in bees. I love looking at the magic of buds waiting to burst open.  I check on all my fruit trees to see if they need watering. PH bought me a moisture metre and it is wonderful. Plants I think need watering are actually quite moist so I can save that water for the ones that really need it. I then check my veggies and seedlings and give them a drink. Of course I need to transplant the orange tree and plant out a couple of natives. The last above ground bed is waiting for my strawberry plants. Better do that too.

And there goes my morning. I'll hang out my washing and get started on the Lemon syrup and prepping for dinner. Maybe make another batch of banana muffins for afternoon tea. I think the dusting and vacuuming will wait until tomorrow.
