pottering sunday.

yesterday the weather was really lovely, clear blue sky, the sun was shining and it was cold and crisp. but today grey and dank. no birds singing at the moment. so instead i am indoors going to sort the houseplants out, make sure they are ok. my cactus plant has still got 2 white flowers and i am pleased, that they are still in bloom.the spider plant has got so many babies now that i will have to pot them. it is a very good show.and at the moment it is so peaceful i and out of doors.

autumn.

there was a heavy dew this morning which sparkled in the sunshine, as i walk past a little park. it was a cold crispy morning with the sun shining and blue skies. made a change from the grey  rainy weather just lately.
i had a ladybird crawl over my scarf when i was on the bus and then all of a sudden it flew off.
my christmas or easter cactus  has 2 white flowers. it is quite a big plant but only 2 flowers, but i am so pleased it flowered..
the leaves on the trees near me are now dropping their leaves, they have really hung onto them this years. the colours have really been lovely this year.
alas the beech and sweet chestnut trees did not do so well this year, bur never mind there is always next year.
just enjoying this beautiful sunshine.
