It's On Again!

Now I have a car at my disposal, and I've driven it and am comfortable with it, I've made some plans over the next 4 months.  While my folks are overseas, I'm going to be using this vehicle to my disposal so I can clean out my house and donate my unwanted things to Endoes.  There's going to be a lot going on at my house in the way of cleaning out because I'll have somewhere to put it all now; instead of waiting for somebody to pick it up.

As well as this, I'm going to fix up my garden.  I've walked around it and noticed that it really does need to have quite a few plants repotted, as well as some plants needing new pots all together - especially my Aloe Vera plant, which has been residing in a polystyrene box for the last 7 years.  The Frangipanni has to be repotted as well; seeing it didn't flower this year, it needs more room to move for next Summer.  And over the next few months, I'll be adding in a few statues and killing off weeds from over the back fence so I can keep the place looking good too.  
It's not only the back yard that will get a face lift - the front garden will get a few plants put there too.  I've wanted some large pots with plants out there and some rocks and statues as well, however, without a car, I've been unable to (as well as having to spend a lot of my money on cab fare which has been eating my money too).  Now, I can get in and make sure I have the money to  get my garden looking good and keep it looking good too; just as I've been wanting for the last 5 years.

So, by October, I'll have my house clean, the garden looking the way I want it, and all the practice in driving I've ever needed... and the best thing is that I'll be saving a lot of money by not catching cabs or buses unless I really need to.  Not bad when you think about it.  Until my next post, take care, keep safe and warm and remember, I'm always here.

  1. Keep in mind, fuel costs money too! I have heard we are in for an increase of fuel in the next couple of months. For standard unleaded, it could cost up to $1.70 per litre soon.

    1. Yeah, I'm going to clean out the place completely first then take it all in... save on driving myself around. And if I can get to a place by bus, I'll take the bus. :D

      But I'm a conservative driver; and don't speed - as I do remember that speeding gobbles up the ol' fuel there. :)
