After the bustle of getting ready for my birthday garden party, and then the busy-ness and fun of the day itself, this week has felt flat and drab. It's been like that dull phase after Christmas; even sharing the one redeeming feature of a surplus of chocolate.
To join in the mood, the weather took a wintry turn with nights so cold that delicate plants in the greenhouse had to be covered with bubblewrap.
The low overnight temperatures (minus 5 one day) and gusting wind caused some daffodil stems to snap, and discouraged me from taking any more advantage of being able to go out. It isn't pleasant enough to go and sit in someone's garden for a chat, so any more meeting up will wait till Spring re-appears.
So, it's been a non-event of a week. I've sat at home, eaten all that chocolate, and done very little else.
