February is about to end. It was a month of visiting my doctor and undergoing laboratory tests in the process. Got a chance to be with Nate and Nissa when they came over to see us personally and having those talks on Viber too. Other than these, it was kind of uneventful for me.
I welcome March with open arms. It’ll be summer again soon and different local fruits will be in season. The cold winds of February and the cold mornings are almost gone. One thing that I like about the past three months (February included) are the cold nights and cold mornings. Summer though brings a different kind of enjoyment. Sure, it would be hot again in a few days but along with it is the chance to stay outside during early mornings and late afternoons to garden. We started trimming the carabao grass yesterday which has really grown during the days I was indisposed. It is a little hard now compared to a month ago. Sometimes I do have a weak grip with the trimming garden scissor that I am using.
Found more Lang Leav books on poetry, Lullabies and Love and Misadventure. I am still reading Memories, one poem at a time. I think poems are not meant to be read all at the same time. These books are a little easy on the eyes, they are not thick and they are simple to understand. Lang Leav is a contemporary poet, an international best-selling author. I also came across A Man Called Ove by Fredrik Backman. The official movie trailer is on YouTube but I’d rather read the book first. It is always nice to read the book version before watching film adaptation. You will understand it better. These books are part of my 2017 reading challenge.
Way to go March, I am excited.
I always look forward to March, as it is when I have my birthday! As well as that, you get the sense of the seasons changing, with the hope of a balmy summer to arrive later. No heavy boots and waterproof coats, no heating in the house, and long evenings to enjoy light and warmth.
We have to be lucky though. This is England, after all…
Best wishes, Pete.

Yes, it is your birth month Pete. So glad for you. Another year will be added to your age. We grow wiser though instead of getting older. Just like you I am looking forward to summer.

To your credit, you seem to give all the months equal opportunity. You are better than I am. I would gladly skip July and August.
