This is 'Silent' or 'Deaf' week for us. Time to clean house and home and prepare for Easter. I had a haircut and colour yesterday. That's me done.
The week ends with Saturday of Lazaros and then Palm Sunday
Then it's Holy Week. There's a special church service everyday winding up with the candlelight parade on Good Friday and the great Easter Sunday celebration
K got into gear and arranged for our annual garden clean up
Sani from Pakistan our happy helper
He had a huge smile on his face when I asked if I could take his photo
Ks 'treasures' are still there round the edges but the jungle of weeds has been conquered. He didn't leave a blade of green
This photo is from the internet but this is what we did before Easter every year when we lived in town. We whitewashed all our steps and walls.
The municipality white washes the steps and alley ways now. Or they will if the rain ever ends.
Sani says he'll come back next week and whitewash our garden walls. What a great lad
Covered in red silt
More cleaning

The Saharan dust has been making a mess everywhere - not good for the lungs either, I expect.
ReplyDeleteLungs and eyes. When it's really bad they issue a health warning. My eyes are always itchy and watery
DeleteYour Sani is perhaps a bigger treasure than those around the edges of your garden 😁
ReplyDeleteEvery week is Deaf Week for some of us 😅
He's so full of energy and good will. We give him a good bonus. He's no 1 treasure
DeleteI think we have just had deaf week, or Holy Week, preparing for Easter. Today was especially quiet around here and I hardly heard any vehicles at all. I like Good Friday. The weather is still awful and, of course, fuel costs a lot. Rachel
ReplyDeleteYou've just had Holy week. Here it starts on Monday. The big difference with Deaf week is that there are no church services. Those start again on Monday too. It's still wet here but temps I hope will rise. Good Friday, Saturday and Sunday are big celebrations
