Life has been shit

[Ds16dv]

Life has been a bit shit recently. And I wanted to post something positive. Its not the best in the world and still needs a little finishing up. But I done my garden completely on my own. No male help. No one called in etc. It was really hard work. But got there in the end.

I know alot of people won't like/agree with what I have done. That's fine.

I just needed to post something positive for me because life has been a bit shit.

You found yourself a side hustle!!!

Wow!!! Well done you, I'd be seriously happy if I managed to pull off such a transformation. Sit back and enjoy it now.

Wow, my bones ache just thinking how much work that was. Amazing job, I hope you enjoy it lots and lots x

Plastic grass?

Love the dog's expression in the earlier pic, you've done a great job!

I knew someone was going to say this 🫣

Of course. That's why I put I know some won't agree/like what I have done .

Lovely

Well done OP, looks lovely.I hope you're proud!

@Ds16dv well done that is impressive!
Are you going to add a couple of pots , plants 🪴
Some easy to care for Cordy lines. I have a couple in my garden - easy care look good 😊

That looks great! Well done.

Yes definitely. Up the top end where you can see I Need to sort/tidy. There's a flower bed there so I can plant things there and I'm going to ad pot plants as well.

Yes plastic grass. Shock horror.

That is INCREDIBLE. I could never do that. Amazing work 🙌 🙌

Amazing Op ! Looks fab 🥳

Good for you! It looks great.

That’s seriously impressive! And how much you’ll appreciate it because you did all the hard work yourself!

That looks lovely!! Well done 👏

Well done op! There’s no way I could do that - looks really lovely!

Well done!

Thank you everyone for such positive replys . Really needed the lift . Hopefully I can get on a roll and finish of my flat packs 🤣

I'm normally very critical of plastic grass but to be fair, the before pic shows your soil was terrible and hardly capable of sustaining biodiversity. It's not really a loss and your new improved garden will bring you so much joy! Well done on powering through. I'm a bit overwhelmed with the 90ft long garden I'm about to buy. It's just a field of grass at the moment so I'll need to get the big tools out to carve paths and plant large flower beds, I won't be able to afford a professional to help. It's going to be a long slog but this is inspiring.

Looks great and well done - that’s an amazing amount of work for one person! I think with kids, the plastic grass is a good choice - low maintenance and football proof

You've done a great job, OP! You've put a lot of hard work into the garden and should give yourself a big pat on the back. Now get outside whenever you can and enjoy any sunshine. That always cheers me up. Sending 💐

Not a fan of plastic grass on a certain level but we live in a world where it exists and people have that choice.

I’m not going to criticise you as an individual - you’ve clearly done a stunning job.

I am going to criticise you for bad mouthing the K9 - she was clearly supervising and acting as security. Back off!
