Some of you may recall I've taken on a remodel of the left side/bank of our garden pond. Then the rains came and stayed until they had worn out their welcome. The sun is shining and the birds are signing but still can't get back to work on the remodel due to another onset of upper respiratory illness. Plus my good hired man can't restart my project for another two weeks. Yes, I know I whining yet it's nearing summer when the temperature makes outdoor work dreadful. Despite all my moaning, my neurological disease is well under control making it okay for me to be more active. Guess a bit more waiting can be tolerated. It's about time for me to step down off the pity pot and be thankful for the many positives in life. Oh, forgot to mention that the pond's right side looks great!
