Rebellion

​not by me. But my body. 

After a full on week I’ve well and truly crashed and burned 

Pain levels high,

Having to go back to using me stick

Sleep gone 

My lip started to swell and has now cracked and is bleeding and painful 

And IBS has literally kicked me in the guts 

But above all that 

I’m feeling cold. Maybe this doesn’t seem like much, but I never feel cold 

This was when hubby knew I wasn’t well

So I’ve been ordered to just rest on pain of death 

He even sent wonderson to come and put wood in the fire 

Keep this hinder your hat. I had just done that before he arrived 

It’s sunny out and I wanted some vitamin D. I just strolled around checking to see if all the nettings had survived the wind and the heavy rains 

Very pleased to announce that they were all intact 

The first lot of seedlings are growing wonderfully. The replanted silverbeet, chard, have all survived and growing nicely 

You can see some in the second photo 

And here. 

The rhubarb as also come back to life 

The strawberries are thriving and have really responded to that TLC

The plastic terra cotter looking pots, all have started to grow. You can now see green seedlings over the mulch 

The seedlings in that first photo are still just popping up. Most are the onion seedlings that were tiny when I got them. 

I was worried they might have been too small and be taken out by the heavy rains. 

They weren’t. The netting actually helped to stop the damage.  So an unforeseen advantage. I’ll remember that and use it again in the future 

So even though I’m a mess in need of a little TLC myself, the garden is bouncing along very nicely indeed. 

Hopefully I’ll be back to normal tomorrow and I can get a little more done out there. 

I’m happy to sit and rest but not for days on end. That isn’t great for my mental health
