Nothing much

Tuesday.

Work is a little too busy for my liking at the moment, but it is the way with working outdoors. Gardens have awoken and are shaking off their wintery slumber. Shoots and seedlings, weeds and herbaceous perennials are appearing at a prolific rate and I am running just to catch up. 
Am I the only one that struggles with the changing of the clocks? Actually no, I know the cat gets befuddled too. It can take up to a week for me to adjust to the present time, which annoys me as I've lived here long enough to have got used it - but no. I do think that it is a very odd thing to do - altering the time twice a year. It has a bit of a nod to King Cnut and the tides........
We've had some gently good and soul affirming walks recently. Nothing new or outstanding however the power of repeating a lovely trail when just being there is enough.
The van is getting a bit of a make-over. Himself has been inspired and the present layout - although workable, could be better. I am quietly getting excited at the thought of 'playing out' especially now the days are longer and although still chilly, they are beautiful and the light glorious.


Wednesday.

Just got home after a morning's workshop teaching. Eight lovely ladies who delighted in the mindfulness of making of wreaths adorned with mini nests and eggs, feathers, ribbons. Teeny tiny ladybirds and strands of ivy.  Leading up to any of these workshops, I get myself wound up but by the end and everyone leaves happy and I wonder why I worry!

    1. Pan was giving me a serious side eye - she is not keen on being photographed ๐Ÿ˜นThese workshops are always 'fun' with hindsight, I just get myself wound up - anticipation, nerves, dealing with folk etc.

  5. A lovely few days. I disagree with 'Nothing much'. Spring is here and it feels like everything.
    I'd love to attend one of your workshops. They sound like a lot of fun. X

  6. I too am enjoying the sunny weather but I am so fed up with the cool/cold wind. I am doing short stints in the garden but it is a case of gritting my teeth first. Ah the bitter-sweet memories of teaching, I remember it well! x
