Sunday was National Good Samaritan Day in the United States. Here in Canada we have our own good Samaritans, as some of us need help on occasion. Younger folks share their computer knowledge, for example, and we do appreciate their help. We were appreciating the fact we didn’t have to change all our clocks as they did in Alberta and other provinces. Now we’re on the same time as Alberta, which makes a lot of things simpler.
The members of the Do Drop In met by telephone March 10 for the organization’s annual meeting. President is Eric Callbeck, vice-president is Vivianne Lesko, treasurer is Carol Huys and secretary is Gwen Lacerte. Any decision to begin gatherings again is still on hold, but we are hoping to get back to normal for meetings, cards and videos in the near future.
There were a lot of people moving about over the weekend, but no events were taking place, just people visiting or checking out their property for winter damage or taking time to enjoy the nice weather and maybe doing some ice fishing. It certainly looks like spring is on the way with no forecast for the last of the winter storms. It’s all nice for outdoor activities.
Pictures on the TV show northern lights in northern Saskatchewan recently. Do hope some of you got to enjoy them, too. I’m really missing them as I never go out at night any more. When we lived on the farm this side of Spiritwood and went to town for the day, we got to watch them all the way home in the evening. We really loved that part of the day.
With this business of social distancing, maybe we should have done more of that in connection with our refrigerators, as I’m sure we haven’t “flattened our curves!â€
Carry on safely even though many of us have had the COVID shots. We can’t be too careful, even now, so do take care.
