Thank God it's the weekend

Ok what started as a horrible week, turned out to be the most atrocious month I have ever known at work. I am going to say this once and then move on : I fucking hate my job !

Now besides being totally depressed about my work, what have I been up to this past month ?

Amongst other projects I finally tackled the front balcony. Until about mid-December it looked like this :



Yes, geraniums, nasturtiums and thunbergia blooming in December... Hello climate change !

Hhmm, or rather hello ice age:



And when it eventually thawed, exit summer plants...

... and enter winter flowers - pansies & heather


I also added some bulbs, so hopefully in a few weeks I should get some daffodils. Fingers crossed.

Anyway it feels truly good to get your hands into some earth, even if it is only to plant window boxes.

What is your favourite activity when you need to put your mind at rest ?
