Ten things for which I give thanks this week…
1 – I am profoundly glad that a ceasefire has begun in Gaza although a lot will depend on whether President Trump will continue to hold Netanyahu’s feet to the fire to carry on with the terms outlined – however, a ceasefire is a start…
2 – I am glad the second cold I have had in as many weeks is abating as we are supposed to be going to see my grandson and his girlfriend’s new flat tomorrow…
3 – I finally got around to finding someone to redo the fascias, soffits and gutters on the extension. The oood has been cut for two years…


4 – The building work meaned moving half the garden away from the building but I am glad as it all needed rearranging with next year’s bulb containers coming to the fore…

5 – The Spider Orchid Lilies are still producing excuisite blooms when not much else is showing…

6 – My Rhubarb – started from a fragment attached to a pulled stem, is a good size now and I will put it in a bigger pot once it stops for the Winter and hopefully get “fruit” next year…

7 – Some plucky bulbs are jumping the gun for Spring – crocii, I think…

8 – the weather was good today allowing me to paint the new woodwork
9 – I have finished posting poetry/postcards for this year – even the bonus ones from the International list – here is my favourite painting of the challenge – it is “The Island” – Spinalonga, former leper colony made famous by Victoria Hislop’s book…

10 – glad to have thought of 9 lol…
