I'm still here - just!

I've been extremely slack about updating here. I've been a little on the busy side.

I've armed myself with paintbrush/saw/sewing machine/secateurs/rake/wheel barrow/hammer first thing in the morning and, by the time I put them down at night, I am too bloody knackered to type an entry. My inbox is bulging, the number on my google reader is probably at maximum and my back is a million years old but the inside of Mum's room is ready (or will be once the glassier comes this afternoon). The outside (we are making her an enclosed courtyard garden) is still only about half done but it was a lot more work than I thought it would be.

She arrives in four days.

I shall catch up on all my buddies when the work is done (or when it rains). I might even put in some pics!

Until then, my shovel is waiting. I have fence post holes to dig.

It sounds like you're doing a wonderful job for your Mom. And, that you are far, far handier than I.

Do you have a toolbelt?? LOL Sounds like you could use one!! I am impressed with your level of handiness. And I love all this that you are doing for your mom. I am sure she will be incredibly grateful for all this!!!
