Bible Cafe and other stuff

Since I have been back from holiday all my days seem to roll into one :-( and I am doing a great headless chicken impersonation. Kevin's Mum has had hip surgery and is doing well having just been discharged from hospital and staying with her Daughter. At 87 she is likely to pick up a speeding ticket using her sticks. It is amazing and awesome to see just how well she has recovered.

I have been to Bible Cafe twice now and I can honestly say that they have been interesting and thought provoking evenings. Pat's session last week, apart from showing us her varied shoe collection (loved the bling ones especially!!) has had me thinking ever since... We all carried out a ministry questionnaire with 133 questions (I found it easier to do the what flower are you?) Since losing Daniel sometimes it's hard to know where or how to serve so I found it really challenging. We also had some interesting debates on our table. One of which was about how people with Downs Syndrome can still serve God within their own limitations. I didn't start that one either but totally endorse it!! I forget that many people no longer associate me with having a special interest in these matters and sometimes it comes as a shock.

On a separate note, I have some difficult decisions to make in the next few weeks but cannot comment on them at this time. Your prayers would be valued. I also have some health issues which stopped me coming to church this week and I feel deprived. Still, going on Wednesday to Bible Cafe all being well.

Have a good week.

What have I been up to?

I know it's really remiss of me - nearly three weeks without a blog. It has been really hard to cram everything in lately. We have been exceptionally fortunate to have gone on holiday to New England just as the leaves were changing and got back on Saturday. We both had a fab time, even if I have had enough junk food to last me a lifetime. My pictures never seem to do the scenery any justice but some of the views were amazing.

I thought that I would be able to blog when I was away but couldn't remember my password (I'll take it with me next time...) I did read other blogs but also couldn't comment so when I have recovered from the washing and ironing I'll blog with more depth.

It's ok being back.
