- Worship leading for Sunday (about to go and choose songs)
- Making a cake for a friend for tonight
- an assignment for my Diploma... almost finished but not almost enough
- my three year strategic plan for chaplaincy (very tempted to write on it... waiting on God!!)
- housework (goes without saying but must be said...oh, but after sitting drinking coffee with friends yesterday, gazing at the sun setting through my river water streaked windows, I felt bad enough to clean offending windows this morning..!)
No I have plenty to do. What I mean is, what do I do when I log on to the computer? Now that I have removed myself from the book that shall remain nameless (starts with an f and ends with book...obvious yet???) I find myself aimlessly wandering around cyberspace, dropping in to random blogs, hunting down the games I was addicted to on THAT book (which has kind of defeated the purpose of leaving it in the first place)... last night I found myself searching recipes... and repeatedly dropping into favourite blogs to see if they've updated yet.
SAD, SAD, SAD.
So yesterday, I had a haircut and during the course of that haircut had a conversation with the hairdresser (as you do). I suggested to her that she start a blog, great for self expression and no one ever reads them!!... well this morning I'm thinking how can I be giving that advice to someone when I haven't written on my own blog for six months? And it's struck me that THIS is what I can do instead of aimlessly trawling!
SO HERE I AM... again.
EASTER
...was wonderful! Bruce had the four days off and we had great family time. He and Thomas camped in the backyard and cooked their brekky over the little gas stove. It was a bloke's show and the girls were not allowed but we had our own little picnic of bacon and eggs in the kitchen.
We also had some brilliant worship time at Church, lunch with my family up at Mum and Dad's, an afternoon of skiing with the Brumptons (and lots of others) and lots of great family time at home. Bruce had bought "Smoky and the Bandit" (Part 1,2 and 3) so we watched the first two. I drew the line at the third! They were hilarious! Bruce managed to cross a couple of jobs off the list and he was satisfied (some serious time spent on the end of a rake).
