All this optimistic house viewing is not good for my head. Last night I couldn't get to sleep thinking about the different options, what we need to do next and where our furniture would go. Peter was snoring rather loudly so around midnight I took myself down to surf the net. When I did go back to bed my head was still buzzing and by 4.00 I got up and went downstairs to make notes on the estate agents' leaflets. Usually when I can't sleep it's because some bit of me is aching and taking more painkillers helps me to sleep. But last night there was no reason to justify taking more pills, until I changed position very slightly/ took an extra deep breath when my back began to ache. Took some pills then and got to sleep just after 5.00. I didn't sleep in for long because I didn't want to upset my body clock so hopefully I'll sleep normally tonight.
We had some intense showers in the morning with sunny spells in between which gradually lengthened into a sunny afternoon and evening. I caught up with backing up all my photos and did some school work before deciding that I could do a little work outside.
I split some of the smaller hardy geraniums and planted them out in the veg plot and did some weeding up there as well. I got distracted for a while by the goose family splashing and swimming in the lake. I finished off my gardening by clearing the gravel path in the bog garden. During the winter a lot of silt gets deposited on the path so today's weeding was more a matter of scraping off the inch or so of silt and the weeds growing in it. Having a defined path makes it look like a bit of garden rather than a wild patch by the stream.
