Planting a Shrub instead of going to Artschool

Because Simon - my lovely husband - had the morning off I decided to get some groceries together from our local Little shop. Both of us have been very busy the last couple of weeks and we really needed some food in our fridge&freezer!

I came home with loads of groceries and...
two forsythia shrubs.

I have been looking for this shrub for a while but no luck. The twigs of this shrub are a very common easter decoration in Germany and carries a lot of lovely childhood memories. So I'm really pleased to have finally found one for the corner of my own little front garden.

Once the shopping was done I left Simon to unpack.
I headed for the trainstation to go to Glasgow Artschool.

I had to renew my zonecard - Scotrails travel ticket - for another year so I first stopped at the ticket office. I never left there until 1.30h later!!! There was a technical problem with getting my money transfered and it ended up pending in my account. It was too late to travel to Glasgow now!!!

So I went home and cheered myself up by planting my little forsythia shrubs. I really look forward to April when the golden yellow pedals lighten up my garden for Easter.
