Some rain and some photos

Goodmorning everybody!

Yes, weather definately changed a bit, certainly the temps are lower, but as soon as the sun comes through it still is lovely weather. Raining this morning, okay, that's good for the garden, but I hope later it will stop and some sun will shine again.

Monday I wanted to do some "serious"work in the house and guess what? I did so LOL!
First gave  all the house a good sweep with the vacuum cleaner and then thres myself on the closet in the storage room, where I keep all the cleaning stuff, and shower/ shampoo things and such.
I sorted that out, re-arranged it a bit and it looks much better. Also we have some racks there where I keep storage boxes and cans, pots for indoor plants, toilet paper etc.
Sorted that out too, re-arraanged it too and I was quite happy about the result.
Sounds not too much work, but it always takes more time than you think.
Anyway, I was a little happy lady after i finished.

Yesterday I had to do some shopping, weather was nice, so I did it in low tempo.
In the supernaket they had an offer for garden soil, a big sac of 40 ltr for only € 3,00.
I didn;t took it with me, would be too heavy to carry home even with the shopping car, so perhaps Jan and I will go there and take one home. Then we will have more than enough for about the whole year, I think.
Coming home I noticed a little "mess"in the hallway, and saw Jan busy in the toilet/shower room, painting the ceiling and part of the walls that have no tiles.
As we had the leak earlier this year, it needed to be done and now it looks all wonderful and fresh again.
Jan also phoned the plumber on Monday to make an appointment to clean out cv-kettle and talk about some other things that still have to be done.
As the man was busy on a job, he asked if we could call him again next Monday. So I guess soon we will have a few days of a little mess again in the house, sigh!
Hopefully he will not charge us too much for the work on some pipes and a fixing of a part of a floor(yes, he also does some other construction works).

Good that is about all the news today. But I still have some photos for you from the garden. I'll start with the two containes we just filled with some new plants I bought the other week.

Now the Astilbe is starting to bloom, I love those plants, they are so elegant. Should try to find some more of them in other colors and they are easy to grow, you can divide the clumps and replant them. They do well in partly shadowed places and like moist soil.

Another hydrangea started to bloom, this one is reddish and I love the color of the foliage of this one. I should try to make some cutlings this year.

And oh my, our lillies bloom and I just LOVE that color!

This evening our football team has to play again, and I do hope they will play as well or perhaps even better as the 1st match!!

Freebie for today is the add-on of Arlene to the Bedtime Stories kit.
That girl makes fantastic things, as now again, you will get a frame cluster, a lovely page overlay and also a quickpage, I think you are a bit spoiled by her ROFL!

Have a fantastic day!!
