A Greenhouse And No Errors
Our Karen has a few hobbies, one of them as you know is baking cakes. The other one is gardening and growing plants.
We bought this little plastic greenhouse a couple of years ago and it is full to bursting with all of her plants.
And as you can see my decking is just covered in pots.
I would love for her to have a proper greenhouse but we just don't have the room in our garden.
So she discovered this larger plastic one which she can walk into and work on her plants.
The kit comes in a box and is a bit like a tent with poles, tent pegs and ropes.
Anyway Karen and her dad got started building it up.
Please excuse the unfinished fence painting - that is a summer job for this year!!
Now not only is her wee greenhouse full of plants but this is what any shelf in my house looks like - so I am quite happy we are going to get some shelfspace back :))
I couldn't resist a token picture of Karen and myself. She is not keen on getting her picture taken so I grab any opportunity I can :))
Another thing I wanted to mention.
After I write a post I proof read it for spelling mistakes and the like - yes I really do!!!
But the thing is when I post it and Danny reads it (have I mentioned that he stalks my blog, 'cause he does and he sometimes even makes comment when I haven't done a post for a day) he finds all sorts of spelling mistakes that I have missed.
I really do know the difference between too and to and there and their, so how come these mistakes find their way there (did *you* see what I did there?) lol.
Personally I think there is a blogging gremlin out there that just bides his time and waits till I put my post up and then puts all these mistakes in.
Well that's my excuse and I'm sticking to it.
Now I am away to proof read this several times and hopefully there won't be any mistakes for Danny to find. Wish me luck!!!

Making spelling errors are just like having a regional accent - even people who claim not to have them do really!

Lovely to see your picture with her too at the end!
Don't worry about spelling mistakes, we all make them and when we proof-read our texts, the brain is clever enough to correct them, so we don't "see" them right away! However, the nice part is, that we can go back into our blog and edit them out (if we have seen them - that is!!!)
My bugbear is when I see "advise" instead of "advice" or "chose" instead of "choose"... there and their are very common slip-ups because they sound the same! Another one that creeps in all over the place is: "it's" (it is) instead of "its" in the possessive form!
It's a shame that spelling on blogs isn't automatically checked and underlined when incorrect! That would give us all a break!
Have a great day... I do believe the sun is coming back here and hope it's the same for you!
What mistakes?
Maybe Danny is your gremlin and he is logging into your blogger account and switching things around on you? Just kidding! I think sometimes we just don't see things that afterwards seem completely obvious..it's hard to catch everything.
Go figure!!
Your daughter is very talented...I am sure you must be very proud of her.
And now you can't fix it unless you delete this comment - well, will she, won't she? LOL
Oh, BTW, I only complain about you not posting because, like so many of your followers, I love reading this blog.
Apologies to anyone who finds that too sickly sweet - in hindsight, so do I! LOL
cute picture of you and karen!!
So glad you posted a picture of the two of you.
And I know what you mean about those little blogging gremlins... I've had them strike a couple of times and publish a post when I know I did NOT click "publish"!
Greetings,

Love the green house...I've always longed for one!
Hugs~
No worries about the spelling -- I'm just glad you share! :) xoxo
Lovely to see you and Karen. Her greenhouse looks wonderful!
