@Coffee_and_Salt How is your garden looking?
@Mauve_matelot it’s dressed in summer quite nicely! Thank you for asking, it made me take a little walk to grab a couple snaps. Hoping the season is being kind to you!
@Mauve_matelot you’re very right, it is a gift to be able to do, just sit outside.
I’m sorry for the overthinking, and for the challenging things happening you can’t be there for now. My mother is in cancer treatment also. it’s more than a challenge to get there. Thoughts are heavy things at times like that.
But how the garden helps! And how kind of it not to hit you with hay fever at a time like this. That would be insult to injury. 🤧
@Coffee_and_Salt sending hugs for your Mum and you as you navigate all that is yet to happen. I have created a pinned thread for Dad and my attempt to process what they are going through.
@Mauve_matelot thank you for that. I know this is very hard, and indeed, in words that can never be too emphatic, #fuckCancer
@Mauve_matelot 🤤 oh those look lovely!! How will you be enjoying them?
@Coffee_and_Salt I haven't decided.
One option is with lemon or raspberry sorbet this evening, Another choice is with some branflakes for breakfast
@Mauve_matelot tough choice, but you had me at sorbet! this is the kind of thing coso likes to vote on 🤔
@Coffee_and_Salt my hay-fever has not really kicked in so far this year, my golden raspberry are fruiting and I have 3 new plants in the front garden and 2 new ones in the North courtyard.
It's nice to sit outside, and it a distraction from overthinking about my dad's cancer treatment, and my sisters pregnancy. Being 6 hours away limits what I can do till October when we already have a cottage booked.
