I know what you mean about this time of year. I find that I seem to be on top of everything until about the middle of May and then it gets ahead of me. My kids have enjoyed canoeing and kayaking at scouts and explorers, but your photo reminded me of my husband taking me punting on the Cam and the odd brush with a willow tree :)<br />Cathy xThe House with the Blue Doorhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14427149486706803890noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6235841642149423068.post-87547049717991904492015-04-12T20:38:40.529+01:002015-04-12T20:38:40.529+01:00Hey CJ,

Great photos as usual, your seedlings look so healthy.<br />I am accident prone too, I have fallen down my stairs more than once. My last accident in February put me in hospital as I tripped carrying bags of shopping inside and broke my fall with my mouth on the edge of my outdoor table. I managed to lacerate my top lip and split it in half as my teeth went through the flesh and knocked out a tooth. I spent the night in the emergency room where my lip had to be stitched back together. Ouch!! So be careful, you are more than likely like me, rushing around trying to do too many things at once, always in a rush.<br />Take care dear C.J.<br />xoxoxo ♡diannehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06171808338793139579noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6235841642149423068.post-74326333705880166192015-04-11T12:59:42.512+01:002015-04-11T12:59:42.512+01:00You did have a fraught day but looking in the brig...You did have a fraught day but looking in the bright side at least the three things were not canoe connected.
