Nine to Five


9am

What am I wearing?
Turqoise, pink, green and yellow tankini from the CS
What am I doing?
Swimming
Where am I?
At the gym
What's the sky like?
Very blue with the sun shimmering on the water
What's motivating me?
Trying to get to the end of the lane without my tummy escaping from between the top and the bottom of the swimsuit!

2pm

What am I wearing?
Shorts and T-shirt
What am I doing?
Weeding between the leeks and the carrots and pulling the carrots up because they've all been eaten away by carrot root fly
Where am I?
In the garden
What's the sky like?
Still very blue and it's boiling hot

I'd really like to sit down for a while


What's motivating me?
The thought of bare soil between the veggies

I might sort out the mange tout seed.
Then again, I might not!

5pm

What am I wearing?
Shorts and T-shirt
What am I doing?
Eating tea
Where am I?
In the back room

The peppers behind me are coming on
nicely. The plants were 50p from the car
boot sale.


What's the sky like?
Still vey blue and still boiling hot
What's motivating me?
The thought of eating home grown cucumber, tomato and sweetcorn

The corn is as high as an elephant's
eye

  5. The cucumber looks nice and big and the corn wow. I tried to grow corn but the nasty slugs and snails ate the shoots along with the beans.
