Today has been mild and still. It is 21. 7c in the living room.

I did some shopping, had breakfast, watched online Mass from St Marie's, and watched a couple of interesting YouTube talks about St Bridget of Sweden. She was married very young and birthed 8 children. After her husband died she lived in Rome. The Lord Jesus blessed St Bridget with visions and special prayers. She is the sort of Saint I admire. Kind, humble, down to Earth and totally devoted to God.

I up potted an apple tree I have grown from a Pink Lady pip. It's about 2 feet tall.
Paul mowed the back lawn and strimmed the edge, as it was dry again and ideal weather for mowing.

Paul dug a deep hole and planted the Cherry tree in the lawn beside the Discovery Apple tree.

I collected Mallow seeds. They are like tiny doughnut shapes.
My collection of seeds includes alliums, Welsh poppies, Calendula and Selene, white flowers.
I store them in white envelopes and label them then keep them in a tin with wildflowers on it.
Soon the Corncockle seeds will turn brown and I will collect and store them.

I hope you are enjoying your time today.

Thank you for dropping by blip friends.
