30 March 2026

That was March, that was.

It's been quite a while since I did a monthly review of what's been happening in my life but, today is the day!

A huge chunk of the month (seventeen nights) was spent dog sitting.  Holly and I enjoyed a few cuddles but we neither of us enjoyed the flood.  However, the response by friends and tradespeople was wonderful.  Community is great!

I've been helping make up jigsaws ready for West Lindsey Open Churches in May when we are hoping to have a great display and sale.   It's been an excellent social activity for quite a few people.  

I've lead worship on four Sundays.  Yesterday we couldn't use the church building so we decamped to the village hall.  There is a loo being installed in the church so it was a very worthwhile move!

I conducted two funerals.  One lady was 99 and the other was 101. Each was a celebration of a life well lived.  

I've been out for quite a few lunches or tea and cake meet ups.  These are a great way for me to meet up with friends as we live in various villages so it make sense to meet in Brigg when we go shopping rather than make special journeys to each others villages.

I've completed two scarves which will be sent to the Salvation Army for the residents of its hostel.  I've again been commissioned as an elf for Santa as he needs three scarves for children.  

I've enjoyed my hibernaculum.  But it's been lovely to see signs of spring as well.

  1. You had a very busy and productive March. No real signs of spring except Robin's and slight greening of grass. It's still barren outside.

    1. I think it may still be rather more chilly where you are! Here we have cherry blossom and daffodils taking the lead in our signs of spring.

  2. A month well spent by my reading. Thanks for the article you sent along. Interesting to read the Brit perspective on our dictator.

    1. You're welcome. Glad you had an enjoyable month. You should be able to read loads once the library opens next door.

  3. A busy and productive for you and it was good that people rallied round when you needed help. Still cold up here and the heating needs to be on part of the day otherwise the house is uncomfortable. Catriona
