Confessions of a Clumsy Scot

I'm from Scotland, and I'm pretty clumsy. Go figure!

So I’ve had so many posts lined up to post here but procrastination has got the better of me. I will sit down eventually and get them written up but instead, I had a useless realisation the other day that I thought I’d share.

I weed when I’m depressed.

So I’ve done posts on my garden and you’ll now realise I enjoy spending time in the garden, but there’s jobs I keep putting off. Mainly weeding.



Every night I go outside with Macey to play with her herding ball, and I’ve found myself pulling weeds between the slabs of the patio.

On Saturday, I had an event on all day and came home feeling tired and just burnt out. I was desperate for a shower but needed to wait for the water to heat up.
Popped outside to play with Macey to pass the time and for some reason, started weeding the part of the garden that has just been abandoned for about four years.
I started and I just couldn’t stop myself.

Three hours later, i can see our gravel again and found the kerbing we started relaying that I’ll need to finish.
When will my brain let me do that? Who knows.
The next few weeks are going to be hectic as we have family coming, I have RNLI commitments, covering work, legal stuff and what ever else gets thrown at me but this is an area I’d really like to finish now before summer is out!
