It does that for me too, always. And I love that you took that home with you and found more comfort and optimism in your garden. Spring will come! I wandered around my garden today and really looked (you'd have been proud) and noticed things popping up all over the place.

My hair is constantly messy so it makes no difference when I take it off. I've always wanted one of those chic haircuts but I have the wrong type of hair (and an aversion to taking any time to style it). Going through the teenage phase is extreme parenting. My 16-yr-old is coming through it as my 14-yr-old is going into it... Lovely to get out in the garden. It almost always makes me feel better.

I think it is called the human condition. I used to think I wasn't a hat person until I made my own out of a beautiful skein of Fyberspates merino wool. I made it to fit and adjusted the brim for maximum flattery and now I wear it all the time. Just off for my Friday swim, I need to get in and out of the pool before the lunchtime swimmers arrive, Garden planning sounds like a good activity for later on, might pop into the library on the way home for a bit of inspiration.

The first time since before winter and it felt GOOOOOOOD :o) The dogs sat on the wall and watched me as I chatted to the plants and conversed with the garden about where we both wanted everything to go. Lovely sea pics as always. I rely on you for those, you know?

I am not keen on spending time with mine at the moment, apart from being horrid, he also stinks. Hope yours is on a trend to better. How nice to spend time in the dunes with your little man. Precious. I am almost fearful to admit it (reading the comments above, and your post), I wear hats well and often :-) but I do have a gigantic but that is difficult to dress.

It feels so precious, I can almost sense the Vitamin D perking me up. A day alone with your littlest boy is a good thing, although I hope he's all better now, and you too. Good to hear you are feeling it in the garden again. I find my enthusiasm waxes and wanes. I've pruned the apples and grape vines and the garden is vaguely under control. All sorts of horrors down at the allotment though. I am temporarily ignoring it.
