lots of activity next door…

a few days ago a number of lower branches from the evergreen had been removed and left in the front yard…

last night when I arrived home they were starting to remove some siding… it was noisy and dusty, but so hot out that I had to leave the window open…

today when I drove into the driveway I had to maneuver past two wheelbarrows to get into the garage…

they have been removing siding all afternoon… happy I am not on holiday, lol…

relaxing…

had a great sleep… yesterday my son-in-law fixed the flapping piece of siding on the house that has been loose for months…

  
it was amazing how noisy it was… the silence is lovely…

while they were cleaning out the pond, he discovered this little guy at the very bottom…

  
I am always excited when we come across critters in the garden… hope he hangs around for the summer…

  
spent the day reading and eating and napping after putting out all the cushions…  

  
moved from chair to lounger to chair throughout the day…

could have just vegged, but went for a walk in the sunshine while my dinner was cooking…

very relaxing day…

noisy…

big girl pants, garden, George, missing, noisy, pond, squirrel

birdsong and squirrel chatter filled the morning in the garden…

energized by the lovely weather, I worked in the garden and trimmed back the plants beside the pond… so excited to see the new growth starting in most of them… careful not to pull out things that I wasn’t sure about and there were two or three of them…

working in the garden always makes me think of George and today was no exception…

not only was I missing his hard work in the garden, I miss having him to talk to… he would have been excited by the duck flying over and he certainly would have been interested in the squirrel sitting on the garbage can right below the hole they’ve dug in the shed wall… he’d have been over there covering it with a scrap of metal and digging through the shed to find and destroy the nest, lol…

  
put out all the cushions and read a magazine… 
emailed my pond guy to see when they will be coming by to get the pump in and sort out the leaking problem…
the afternoon was a bit more noisy as my neighbours’ were building a planter box by their garage… circular saws, drills and hammers are also signs of better weather, lol…
looking forward to more wonderful days in this little piece of heaven…
