They really are the best sorts of days. Both Mum and Dad are planning to spend most of the day outside and that will suit us just fine. I suspect Shadow will go inside when she\u2019s had enough. Ari may have to be taken inside to stop him overdoing it, but that will leave good old \u2018sensible\u2019 me. I\u2019m only really sensible when it comes to not spending too long in the sun and making sure I drink enough. I\u2019ll be eating apples to quench my thirst throughout the day. I got something in my eye when I was gardening with Mum yesterday and she had to rinse it out, but I was fine afterwards.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Poisonous plants<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>I will be sent in for a while as there are some poisonous plants that Mum has found and wants to dig out and dispose of. Even if I promise to stay at a safe distance she won\u2019t be convinced. I\u2019m glad she worries about us all. The only problem is that I worry about her too and I don\u2019t really want her handling things that are poisonous. She has promised to be careful, so I can only hope she will be ok. It will be better when she\u2019s finished the job.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Fixing the bench<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>It\u2019s funny, knowing that a number of my friends will be coming in a few weeks is spurring Mum into action on a number of things. She has been meaning to secure the bench so it doesn\u2019t fall over when you sit on it and now she thinks it\u2019s important to get it done. I asked if she was going to fix the steps that are lose too and she just groaned. She was going to do that one herself but Dad won\u2019t let her play with concrete. He is probably wise.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Love<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Wilma<\/p>\n\n\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<div class=\"mh-excerpt\"><p>Today Wilma is having a day in the garden, but can Mum be trusted with the jobs she&#8217;s planning to get done.
