#flowers for mum

[theretirementstory]

26/05/2024. Oh my goodness, I am inside my own four walls, waking in my own bed and relaxing in my own chair and it is just wonderful! Okay, so I only got home on Wednesday evening and have to visit the hospitals in Paris and Troyes over the next few months but who gives a fig, I will say it once again, I AM HOME 😁.

The beautiful card, pictured, was made for me by a friend in the UK, she had hoped it would arrive before I went into hospital, however it was a wonderful surprise to receive it when I returned.

My garden, which I had been longing to see, is still waiting for the gardener to arrive with his mower. He now assures me it will be Monday or Tuesday, it really needs to be otherwise I may need a goat to clear “the pasture”.

The irises are all dead now, I did a little dead heading yesterday. There was a weed (it wasn’t there before I left) which, if left, could have grown into a tree. However the root system was not deep and I removed that very easily. I noticed that one of the hellebores was flowering and am praying that when the gardener does arrive that he doesn’t mow over the top of it too. The œillets (pinks/carnations) are starting to flower and I really would like to try and reclaim my borders which are full of weeds and grass. The cherry tree has the most cherries on that I have ever seen, my neighbour tells me they are not ripe yet, I think by the time they are the birds will have eaten the majority. Noticed a blackbird in the tree gorging itself on them. I need to take things slowly and so I will need to, eventually, do a little bit at a time.

My peonies have not flowered again this year (well they are only young). On Thursday I took a telephone call which was from one of the florists in town. She said she had a delivery for me 🤔 I thought, who would be sending me flowers? The bouquet arrived, six beautiful pinky/white peonies oh my goodness who had sent them? I read the card that was with them and promptly burst into tears. The bouquet was from “The Trainee Solicitor” and “The Reconnect Navigator”. What a wonderful surprise 🥲.

Anie had been shopping for me on Wednesday and kindly brought the shopping down around 8pm. She also brought me a bunch of œillet from her garden. She hugged me (we both had masks on so I guess that was alright). Monique had volunteered her help, I just have to ask. Lots of people want to come and see me but until I get a programme of where I am and when, it’s a little difficult to organise. Well it is early days too I suppose.

The dietician had a laminated sheet on the back of the door in my room, it showed things that I was allowed to eat, on there were Mars bar, Twix and Kitkat. I have dreamt of Mars bars and Kitkats, still not had one but think I may treat myself next week.

Yesterday was the BBQ for the association, of which my knitting group is part. I received a photo and was totally surprised to see that numbers have dwindled so much that everyone attending seemed to be just around one table. it looked as if there were only 14 people in total. it really is quite sad as before Covid the groups seemed to have such a large number of members.

It was a full five days work last week for “The Trainee Solicitor” and “The Reconnect Navigator” so this long weekend (Bank Holiday Monday) is going to be a nice break again. There were plans afoot to sort out the garden hedge etc but not sure if that got started yesterday although grass seed (?) had been purchased so it may have found it’s way from the box to the ground by now 😉. “The Reconnect Navigator” had been and had her nails “done” and very nice they looked too.

“The Photographer” has been to London for a few days. He went to meet up with a guy he had worked with. He had a good time but didn’t appear to do as much as had been mooted. He visited his Aunt and Uncle too which was another nice visitor for them. He has got a few irons in the fire with his photography so that is interesting. His children are away on holiday with their Mum and Grandad who is visiting from Vancouver!

“The Jetsetter” back from her adventures in Vancouver, has been back at work. It won’t be for much longer though as another holiday is beckoning.

Onto the music slot this week, I am reminiscing over holidays long gone but memories are wonderful things. Numerous visits to Sousse in Tunisia, nights spent in “La Grotte” disco, taking over the dance floor to tracks like “I Surrender” by Rainbow, released in 1981 or the song I loved so much from 1976, “If You Leave Me Now” by Chicago.

It’s Fetes des Meres here today (as it is in a number of countries) so I am happy with my Mother’s Day present of the beautiful peonies. Well they were really to wish me well on the road to recovery but have been given a dual purpose now.

Bon Dimanche

How to Create a Winning Baby Boy Hamper

A baby boy hamper makes a perfect gift or prize for the new parents to be and it comes in a wide variety of styles, sizes and price points. Typically featuring soft plush toys, a matching piggy bank and a hefty dose of sweet or savoury snacks for the new family to enjoy together.

The best way to go about creating a winning hamper is to start with an informed selection of reputable brands and then build your basket accordingly. The Hamper Emporium stocks a great selection of quality products from iconic Australian brands like Gerber, Fisher & Paykel and Osir to name but a few.

Okay so I know absolutely nothing about flowers BUT my mother is an avid gardener and Artist. I asked her if she could try to decipher the waistcoat that the costume department said was foreshadowing a lot of season 3 part 2

This one:

On the coat are multiple flowers, these are what we think they are and their known meanings

(I am not a genius and therefore this is all speculation for funsies 🤣) (all meanings are either taken from the Language of Flowers or Known English meanings of the time.)

First is Foxglove:

Symbolic of Conundrums, riddles and secrets

Flax:

Symbolic of purity, perseverance and rebirth

Bird's foot trefoil:

Symbolic of revenge, usually a passive aggressive flower

Wallflower:

Symbolic of faithfulness in the face of adversity

Spruce:

This is found wrapped or hovering around every flower and I think may have multiple meanings.

Symbolic of birth in English meaning but is considered the 'Tree of birth' In ancient Greece the tree is related to Artemis (a Greek goddess) who presides over childbirth and is a protector of women.

Chrysanthemum Toshodai-Ji 唐招提寺 Nara, Japan

[photoblogdujour]

Red Cyclopsian feeding off wayfarers who happen to fall into its maw. It previously had a part in Return of the Jedi, but due to the part occurring entirely under the sand it was not actually seen on camera and was unable to capitalize on its notoriety. Further, it took years to get all the sand out from under its petals.

This is a great time to show mum how much you love and appreciate her. Here at FloristHanoi, our stunning flower delivery service will help you celebrate mum and the best flowers to let her know how much you care.

We're delivering the perfect Mother's Day flowers and gifts in Hanoi, Vietnam during the lead up and right across the weekend (including Sunday). Rather than giving mum just one special day, why not have her flowers delivered on Friday or Saturday so she can enjoy them all weekend? Check out our Mother's Day flowers and gift range to order our stunning flowers online!

Mums do so much for us, so it's right to celebrate her on Sunday, May 14th, with fresh flowers for a happy Mother's Day. Make your flower delivery extra special with our selection of gift add-ons such as a scrumptious Chocolate, cakes and bath salts or a gorgeous candle to fill her home with the most heavenly scents.

Mother’s day flower arrangements

Mother's Day 2023 falls on a Sunday. Which means you will need to be a bit more organised with your presents for Mum this year. Order flowers for Mother’s day in advance so you can surprise Mum on Sunday morning! What better way for Mum to wake up than with some fragrant happy Mother’s day flowers?

With Mum's day coming up at the beginning of May (Sunday, 14th May), order your beautiful flowers early to surprise your Mum with the best Mother’s Day arrangements.

The 14th of May is a time to honour motherhood and make extra efforts to show how important mothers are in our lives. They literally make the world go round and often, this day is shared with generations of parents and mother figures.

Please note that many local florists may be sold out or unable to get your order delivered on Mother’s day (because it falls on a Sunday). So it's important to remember to order your Mother's Day delivery in advance so you don't miss out!

Mothers’s day gifts

Flowers and plants are a staple gift for your Mum's special day, plus popular mother's day flowers are a great way to show how much you love her. As flowers tend to symbolise life, they're the perfect way to show how grateful you are for the life your mother gave you. Flowers are beautiful and pure, which many of us think of as traits in our own mothers. Most importantly, we gift our Mum flowers on Mother's Day because, well, they love them!

Of course, Mum will love any kind of local flower you choose, but there are some that tend to be symbolic as flowers for the traditional Mother's Day flowers.

Lilies are a symbol of fertility and motherhood, they're the perfect flowers to gift your Mum on Mother’s Day. If you want to make custom mother's day arrangement and send the best love to her, lilies with roses offer a stunning and long-lasting visual, along with an intoxicating fragrance. Flowers delivered arrive in bud form, so they'll open slowly, making your gift last even longer.

This Mother's Day, treat them to a gift that they truly deserve - a stunning arrangement of flowers crafted specially to celebrate this important day. Whether it's roses, peonies, carnations, lilies, or a mixed flowers bouquet, and more, our collection is sure to make them feel loved and appreciated.
