| Daisies White reflect the buckthorn and plum blossom before mowing |
Wednesday 18th March 2020: a sunny day. Mowed the lawn. The first cut of the year. It took a while to set up with electric wires and a system to let grass not compact near the blade but not spray me in the face! I was happy to let the cuttings remain on the ground. I mowed nearer the house at first. Then as far as I could with two of the cables. The last part needs a 3rd cable so I left the daisies at the end. It took 3.5 hours but in between I moved stuff about the garden and took breaks in between. This is the first time I have mowed it all in two years. The gardener was employed. I had been physically unwell. I am cautious and careful. I am slow so as to not overstretch groin muscles which are in repair. Actually, after scans and x rays saying all was well, I self predcribed myself to a French osteopath who identified the problem as the illopsoas muscle. Over a year of every 2 . 3 months of treatment there is significant improvement to my whole body and mind.
Now though......the osteopath has cancelled!
I am very proud and pleased that NOW I can sit here, face the sun, or if inclined I can jog around the garden for exercise.
I know I may have to cut it twice a week!
I know there is more grass to mow at the other property.
Will the gardener be able to come?
I am tired but happy so far!
