I can barely post these days. I guess, I bit more than I could chew and to be honest there are days when I feel like am all over the place.
It's pointless to whine on something I have brought to myself. I just need to find balance and I honestly, don't know how, atm. I want to do so many things and yes, I also have so many things to do but most of it I don't really like doing. The ones that I really, really want to do, I can barely do because my time is mostly spent on doing the musts.
Some days, I can't help but wonder ... "What on earth am I trying to achieve doing the things I am doing?" There's just too many things I have at hand now, I'm starting to feel like am all over the place. Even my favorite hobby -gardening is starting to be annoying and that means I really have to take a pause now. I'm mostly feeling fatigued everyday but taking a break is just not an option, yet.
I wish I could buy time to spend on doing the things I really, really want. I just have too much, atm and I think I just added more load for the coming months. Sighs ... I guess I can't undo the later and that it would mean giving up a few things to focus on that.
Even this post sounds like am all over the place and just talking in circles but hey I really am feeling like so, atm. I guess, I'm also going a bit gaga on something new and perhaps, I can't yet fathom how to feel about it. What's "it " about ? - Find the video of crumbs here .
If you don't see me as often as I was here .. then know that, during those very days, am actually wishing to know what's it like ...
to be a moth on broad daylight.
This content's 100% mine . I took the pics with my Nikon D3400. Don't like reading? Watch video in my VLOG instead.
That is a sweet looking moth, at the moment I have a patch of land i am trying to get butterflies to come too, but I am not having that much luck.
We used to see massive moths on the hospital wall when we were kids, but they seem to have gone now as time as gone on. maybe it has something to do with climate change or pollution or that us humans are taking away their homes by building on them. I don't know. anyway cool photos @englishtchrivy
Thank you.
Lavender always works to have butterflies if you won't mind having much of the cabbage butterflies, I noticed you have cabbages, they'd probably lay their eggs on them. I suggest you collect their larvae and place them in a glass with a cover, that way you can do some damage control on your cabbages and have plenty of butterflies to start with. By the time they would hatch and lay eggs again you must have already harvested your cabbages and if not just continue doing the process. Good luck!
Nice bit of information. last night I was reading that using privet hedge wood chippings with leaves on is the worst thing you can do around vegetables and it can make them as poisonous as cyanide, so i don't know if I really want to risk eating it with knowing this.
I have some lavender seeds that I want to get growing but I think that I have left it to late for the season. I love butterflies and i was going to make a butterfly garden instead of growing my own veggies.
:D
no idea about the cyanide effect of wood choppings with leaves
as for the lavender seeds, imho you can sow them anytime and then just let it soak in much water it'll grow as long as the seeds are healthy.
Good luck
Misses Busy Bee Ivy going on city trips and doing travel posts. Cool. (Be carefull and take some mindfull time-outs too...)
Nijmegen, a beautifull city, famous for the four day march, but it has so much more to offer. It has been a few years since I've been there for the last time, but I can surely state it is worth a longer stay.
Take care Ivy, good luck with your new adventure(s).
Ja, je wilt zoveel en er is ook zoveel te beleven, remmen is soms lastig. Altijd wel iets te doen, dat is wel tof, maar af een toe even een break van alles is ook prima. Even de accu weer opladen Ivy, de boel de boel laten.
En dankje, jullie daar ook een fijne break/ vakantie toegewenst!
dank je wel ..
mijn remmen zijn kapot ^ ____ ^
express kapot gemaakt wahahaha ~~~
da'z maakt dat lastiger!
ik moet door een APK zelf gaan denk ik
hahahah ^ ___ ^
the mind is all over the place..the priorities are everywhere but nowhere at the same time..isnt this also something that happens in summer, or that we need to accept in summer time, to let it go a bit...and with that...be fine with that at the same time..
give yourself a break madame! We cant shine all day long ;)
Dont pressure yourself
I know exactly how you feel :-) loose strings all over the place... but time has shown things will work out somehow. They always do!
Thank you for the encouraging words @jkiw.
True, these too.. shall come to pass.
Take it easy ...

Wow - Englishtchrivy - you are a great writer. Did you ever think of publishing some of your short essays?
thanks!
sorry for the late reply
I went on a trip!
I hope you're having a great time!
This is much closer than the butterfly I got a few Sundays ago.
Got to see if I can post that tomorrow.
Hey! post it!
Now I have to go back to your page to see :D!

Thank you very much!
Your knowledge on them always come in handy!
