I over spent at the garden centre and now feel guilty as hell.
I tell myself my hobby is self care but it's no use 😔

hey everyone!!
might be going to a look out spot on the weekend to catch the sunset, and maybe a bit of shopping too. this week in particular i've been grateful for the existence of movies/tv shows 📺
keen to hear from everyone else 😊

Hey @Macey ,
Nice! Good on you for practicing some self-care.
If you really feel guilty about it, are there some things you can return?
Great to see you anyway. Do you like gardening much? I know you mentioned you like freshly cut lawns.

Plans are for next week.
digging up 5 Daisy bushes (thank goodness for good neighbours) that have grown too big and ‘recycling ‘ them by giving them to neighbours daughter to plant.
redo my front garden patch including moving 3 plants to my back yard and trim my native rosemary
plant shopping

I picked up a potted dill for lifting spirits and love and bought my first flowering plant of the season, a climbing jasmine I know will be great to have lacing along the balcony balustrade this summer.
It has blossoms already, too but of course I then needed larger pots for transplanting, and then ofcourse potting mix for growing medium.
I'm excited, but now my butt hurts from the expense.

Hey guys @Macey @ArraDreaming @Patches59 @rav3n @tyme how are you all?
@Macey I hear you, hobbies are so good for us but they can get pricey. It sounds as though you're feeling really excited about gardening right now though and it's so lovely to be able to invest in your interests. Also I loooove jasmine! It's one of my favourite scents and always boosts my mood when I pass a flowering jasmine bush when on a walk

@Macey , you may have to start looking on marketplace or the such like. I don't know all the places you can get stuff, but your hobby sure sounded costly today!
At the same time, hope to see some photos. Sounds exciting!
