Palm Monday !

Easter week as we know dear readers, extends to a fortnightly celebration with practicing Christian folks. Lent is over and done with, leaving the coast clear for scoffing Easter cake laced with marzipan and Chocolate eggs on sale for ages as relatives spend fortunes on chocolate in fancy packaging, oblivious to the obvious answer which is to wait until after Easter before purchasing their choccy choice!

Clearly Palm Monday is not really a thing, but it could be easily with a little imagination. Anyway there's far to much fuss about Easter, given that Christians are rather out of fashion these days, with folks of many faiths and none getting drawn into wasting money on expensive Easter Eggs through peer pressure ...

Anyway, on with today, Monday before Good Friday and Easter Sunday. Well dear readers, today was free from visitors so the time was spent trying to organise bureaucratic types with forms to fill out in order for your blogger to secure the finance to and influence to obtain the bungalow in Stanhope we desire opposite with two bedrooms, and shared bathroom, kitchen, and drawing room.

In the process of form filling, shocking news arrived from a solicitor to advise that a youngish friend died before Christmas leaving his wife and daughter grieving, reminding your old blogger that we are all sure to die some day and the time of it is unknown. Along with the form filling a Last Will and Testament is required signed by solicitors though the beneficiaries are known more or less. Still, it's worth keeping tabs on the issues before it's too late.

Meanwhile dear readers we crack on praying for miracles, not in order to live forever or choose the time of passing, but to settle affairs so that heiresses  are not left with issues unresolved, or recriminations for things left unsaid. In case you were wondering dear loyal readers of Wear and Dao this blogger is unconcerned about his mortality having led a good life this time around and delighted that his two daughters need have no recriminations and a sense of ongoing consciousness beyond death.
