Mono Monday: Reclaimed

Nice to have a slow start again today. First I caught up with yesterday's blip over one of Joan's delicious hot cross buns. Spent some time assimilating the death of the Pope, the process of electing good successor and the implications of the death of another world leader. I hope the next has some of Francis qualities.
Once I was up and dressed I wrapped up and headed out to pick up some large inexpensive pots and some compost.
When I got back I set to on clearing out some of the existing pots in the back garden. I'll leave those with daffodils and tulips till they have died back, but I repotted a couple of hydrangea and some hosta. I repotted and split a couple of hosta and some Solomon's Seal and put them in pots on my wall. I then listed them on a couple of local facebook pages along with a teeny blackcurrant plant. Within 10 minutes only the blackcurrant was left.
I've included part of the lineup in this week's Mono Monday challenge. Not only have the plants been revived, but they've also been rescued then recycled in reclaimed old pots.
The new pots in the garden look good and I now have pots in the next size down to up-size some more plants.
Katy came over at tea time to sort out our schedules for the next couple of months. She also took some left over chicken and some roast beef away with her. I'll never get through it all on my own.
Time for a bath and an early night (that'll be the day). I was disturbed last night by a sudden sharp pain in my thigh. I woke from being sound asleep and actually cried out, it was so painful. It was much worse than my usual cramp, but I've no idea what caused it. I took some paracetamol and an ibuprofen for good measure.
