March

We had a late dusting of snow at the beginning of the month - in fact on the first day of spring!

Someone had a birthday

I completed a couple of jigsaw puzzles (I'm only doing 1000 piece puzzles now, and doing them in the studio, out of harm's way).

I bought a trellis for the side of the garage wall, GM has since fixed it in position.

 I bought a new pair of joggers, size medium, and they're a comfortable fit, yippee

The horrid kitchen tap that we inherited when we bought the house has now been replaced with a brand spanking new one, so much more user-friendly.

 

I've been crocheting squares for another blanket for GD4. Can you guess her favourite colour?

 

How was your month?

February

The month started with a couple of anniversaries, firstly GM and I celebrated being together as a couple for 37 years on 3rd, and we celebrated 3 years of being in our forever home at no. 43 on 4th. As these two days fell on Saturday and Sunday this year, we decided to take a short weekend break in Ferndown, where we hired a chalet from Friday to Monday. Fortunately, as we were in the middle of a forest, the weather was kind to us. No wind, no rain, but not a lot of sunshine either.

During the rest of the month there were jigsaw puzzles, a walk to the canal (I've never seen it so full!), visiting granddaughters, the side gate was rehung to open towards the house, things are starting to happen in the yarden, I had a close shave in the town carpark, bought some new sheets, and packed up and sent off the lint saved from my dryer.

January

Late last year I fell out of love with my blog, whilst I still have lots of followers, I don't actually have that many readers, which saddens me a bit.

However, I'm going to ignore my thoughts of simply not bothering at all, and do a post a month for the moment. This is how my January panned out, with a newly completed blanket, a cuppa with a friend, new neighbours, some new worms for my compost bin, a local walk, and a trip to London for lunch with PJ.

Having been losing weight steadily since last July, lots of my clothes are now too big for me.
