    Dear Danny! I wondered where you had disappeared to, now I know. Be good to yourself! Broken ribs are very painful, worse because they move with every breath, and a tiny bit of exertion or a stretch or lift can set you back! So, pace yourself and ask for help when you need it. In a few more weeks you will start to feel better, stronger. There is no rush, what gets done , gets done. what doesn't will keep. Hugs!

      Thank you Carol. You're so right. I am very sore at the moment. No rush at all. I've done more than enough I'm sure..but still very frustrating. Lol

    Mind yourself, Danny 🤗 The plot is looking good and can wait a bit while you heal. The timing is never good for any accidents, but you have to slow down and take care of yourself when it does happen 🥰

    Hi Danny, Oh man, I'm so sorry to hear of your injury! Please heal quickly and fully. In the meantime take care of yourself as you would take care of any of your clients. I think Linda brought that table and chairs at exactly the right time, because you now have somewhere to sit and enjoy your plot as you rest and recuperate.
    Your plot is looking so lovely, and is a testament your hard work and dedication.
    Hope you have a good week ahead xx

    I have done the same thing in the past with my ribs. Lots of painkillers, a balance between rest and sleeping propped up helps.
    My physio told me to move before the pain really kicked in, wise words.
    Please don't lug heavy things around, you will not heal. In time you will find what's comfortable for you. Luckily it's early and there is plenty of time to get better.

    • @TheGrowUpChannel

    That table and chairs look new, no standing on this time get a three step ladder like we used in the kitchen.
    Don’t rush things Danny one step at a time, its too bad it happened at what is probably the busiest time garden wise, just keep the water up to the seedlings and they should be fine.
    All the best Danny

    So sorry about your injury. It’s so obvious how much pain you’re in too. Massive kudos to you for getting down the plot in spite of it. Take it easy.. lifting the pots. Thankfully you were ahead of the game, as you done so much. 🙈🤗
    Shame about the fruit cage build being delayed, but it can’t be helped.
    Love the new fork and compost pressies. Brilliant. So kind.
    The Herbary looks great. Made a big difference to that side of the tunnel. I adore herb gardens, they’re so sensory when brushing through them.

    Sorry to hear about your injury Danny I hope you'll soon be up to speed. This time of year late sowings soon catch up to those sown earlier.Thanks for your efforts today just try & enjoy what you have already achieved, & do little & often. You got some nice gifts. I could do with a table & chair set like that! & the fork came in handy too! Watch out for that Lemon Balm it runs like MInt. Also if you mint Plants are deferent flavours try & space them apart or they will all taste the same. The strongest one takes over.

    Hi Danny, sometimes a rest can benefit you in the long run.

    Hi Danny. So sorry about your ribs. Hope they heal soon. I dislocated my shoulder and broke my arm 18 months ago and found it incredibly frustrating not being able to do what I wanted/needed to in the garden. Be careful and try not to overdo it (easier said than done, I know). The seedling are coming on great in your polytunnel. Can you tell me what heater you use in there and how it is powered? Many thanks. All the best. Mags

    • @TheGrowUpChannel
      @TheGrowUpChannel  11 месяцев назад

      Hey Mags! Welcome to my channel 🥰 thank you. Yes it's very frustrating! The heater I use is just a camping heater that uses the same gas canisters you'd use in a camping stove. It's pretty effective too..I was potting away today at 19°c 😊
