March in review

I thought I would do a review of March since I spent most of the month away from the keyboard.  My home looks like a group of toddlers broke loose and partied, my cats are treating me like something a dog brought in, and I think I may need to look back to January's review post to remember what my lovely hubby looks like.  To say it has been a hectic month is a bit of an understatement.  


So... Thanks once again to Mon at Holistic Mama for this inspiring idea.  One day I will have my own ideas again - after I wrestled back some 'free' time.



A thought...
What was I doing?  This month has been one of dazed confusion.  Between the sheer amount of appointment, visits and work things that MUST BE DONE I have been running at full tilt.  Add to that the joy of pregnancy brain and I often found myself sitting or standing somewhere wondering what I was doing in that vague way you get when you are pretty sure you were just doing something but can't quite remember what... or why.

A sound...
The doorbell at work.  This month I heard it for the last time as its servitor.  Am I glad? Yes.  Am I still hearing it in my sleep? Hell, yes. Sigh.

A taste...
Chocolate Peanuts... The cravings have arrived!


An image...


My local hospital... Seen this place waaaay to much this month thanks to 
Pregnancy Appointments.

A scent...

Fresh green grass.  Spring has definitely arrived.  This makes for a happy Kitty.

A word... (anything word related)

Blog.. as in I really must write on my blog!  I showed willing if not the ability to actually do it.

A touch...
100% Cotton fabric.  I spent a whole day quilting in order to relax a bit.  The feel of cotton under your fingers while your work just growing is amazing.

A gift for me...

Taking two whole days to myself to recharge my batteries.  My lovely hubby pampered me and I felt wonderful afterwards.  I love that guy!

A post you may have missed...

Um.... Other than a couple of Joy Pockets posts there werent any.  Im a terrible blogger.



This month has seen the end of my work contract and the start of my Maternity Leave.  That my job was being ended wasnt a huge shock, I had seen it coming for months.  Thankfully, being pregnant at just the right time has given me some breathing room.  I will miss the work and some of the people but I will keep volunteering with the Pagan Federation so I wont be going mouldy in the corner any time soon.  


I am taking this change as an opportunity to rediscover a balance in my life that was starting to slip.  I haven't been writing or crafting very much and I have felt that lack very keenly.  Now I have some time to myself before one of the greatest adventures a Kitty can have gets underway.  Here goes Project Parenthood!
