Serendipity

So we survived the Earthquake ,thankfully, not an experiance I would be keen to repeat .Then came February 29th ,wow an extra day ,and no I didnt propose to Maurice ,if its not broken dont fix it ! We are fine as we are ,in fact better than fine ,as near perfect as you can get .

March came in roaring like a lion in fact a whole pride of Lions ,causing alot of damage poor Kate was so upset to wake to find her calf and sheep ornaments in the garden had been broken in the wind ,they are lieing in our garden as Maurice has said he would ''try ''and fix them for her ,oh dear !....... 

Then as soon as I threw out all my flowers from my Birthday ,and took down my cards along came Mothers day ...and Oh I am blessed ,more flowers cards choccies and presents ,I saw Daughter Kate and Martin on Saturday when they came to visit ,then on Sundayson  Mark and Chrissie came over ,and my sister Jean and her husband Pete ,I had lovely phone calls from son  Derek and daughter Sharon ,so  a very lucky Mum am I .

Yesterday ,because I was going stir crazy we had a ride over to St Ives (Cambs)a lovely little town we enjoy ,and because I still had some birthday money from Kate that was burning a hole in my pocket I bought a skirt (per una) I love their stuff ...oh hurry up nice weather so I can wear them (I bought one with my Christmas money  didnt I? )I am fed up with my winter things now .But will be wearing them abit longer I fear cos 'The March wind doth blow and we shall have snow ?please no ! and what will the Robin do then ? poor thing ,he'll  stay  in the barn to keep himself warm ,and hide his head under his wing ,poor thing '

Maurice is back at work ,so Im playing catch up but as Im not getting on very well ,so thought I'd sit and do an update here .Tomorrow being the first Wednesday in the month is the day for my club .Then on Friday I am off to the residents forum  bi monthly meeting ,my they come around quickly .and so dear friends that is me up to date again so as usual love  and
