Mum and I visited Intratuin today. I got what I needed, and then we saw this Dumbo... It's a garden statue, but as my garden is still not done, and I really love it, so it's now gotten a place on my record player. Maybe, one day, when the garden is done, Dumbo will be placed there. But for now, I'll leave him in the living room... 🎈

Some more weeds and many roots have been taken out. I still need to clean out the small heap on the side of the path, but my hands were done with the work for now... But, another patch has been cleaned up a bit more, slowly cleaning out the unwanted bits... Very slowly...

The front garden didn't make it unscathed through the winter time.
Due to the digging, when the heat pump was loosing pressure, and then a lot of rain, followed by heavy snow.. The ground now looks like a moon scape... It needs leveling, but I suck at leveling anything, so I'll need help...
But I first want to focus on the back garden now, due to the coming of Koa...

Pff it's not perfect, but a lot of weeds/roots have been taken out... I need the rest of the day to recover, I fear (although I do need to run a load in the washing machine...), as my hands and the rest of my body don't like this work. But... Some progress I think. 😊

Now... Some relaxing on the couch with my Kobo...

The weather was great for some gardening work. I wish my body, especially my hands, were in better condition... I made a small start, but hopefully, there will be more good days coming, so I can do a bit of work every time I have some spoons, so that the weeds get taken out more, bit by bit...

The new kitchen rug, in preparation for the puppy, came in a cardboard box. The box was a bit damaged... But, Bas didn't care about that... He was going to demolish the box anyway, if he'd be allowed to...

The garden had been opened up during the inspection of the heat pump's vertical ground source, when the heat pump kept losing pressure in September/October.
Now, after a huge amount of snow had been on there, the ground is starting to sog some...
I took snaps to mail to the rental company, as I hope they van send someone to fix this. This happened due to the repairs, not due to my handling things. And I have no idea how to properly fix this by myself. 🤞🏻 Hope they'll help. 🍀

I took two snaps in my living room to show a friend some knick-knacks, and I thought I just share them here too.
Some shelves are dusty, as I struggle with my hands, and I've not had the energy and strength in them to properly deal with cleaning the shelves (don't want to break any of the things!). But I know I'll need to get around to it when I can...
I don't mind the cleaning too much, unfortunately my hands do mind... 😔

#PixysHouse

Well... It's not 💯 perfect... But I did the best I could... On my own, with my broken body...
I guess it's a lot better than before? I hope... 😇 I hope it will stay in place, as getting the pins in kinda destroyed my hands for today. 😔
Now I need to rob a bank to get me that Labrador statue that I shared earlier this morning. 😉

The two grass mats that were delivered last Friday. Forgot to share them here...
Yesterday, there was a lot of rain...
Monday, they expect more wind...
So hopefully, I can roll out the mats this morning, find the best placement for them, and pin them down... Fingers crossed 🤞🏻 that the weather and my body will allow it.
I can't wait to see how the garden will be with the fake grass covering the biggest patch of root fabric...
I hope to be able to buy a few bins for plants, and some easy to maintain plants, later on, to place in the garden there. And... If I ever find a cool Labrador garden statue thingie, I need to rob a bank, because I'd love one of those next to the front door. 😇
