2 months!!!

Oh dear, it has been far too long since my last post. My excuses will be lame so I won't bother.

Suffice to say my recollections of events of the past two months are not many:
  • my new school is not laid back, is busy, busy and then some more busy.
  • It's a challenge but ultimately I hope a good one (although there have been many dark moments when I have not felt very positive about my move.)
  • I leave for work earlier than I did at my last school which is bizarre as it's only 5 minutes away from the house.
  • I have been to 3 fabulous weddings.
  • I have fantastic friends (lots of whom I saw at the weddings).
  • I'm going to be an auntie next year, which is highly exciting.
  • I discovered last Sunday afternoon, the first free day of half term, that as I had decided to leave so many 'jobs' that needed doing for Church till half term - I had better start quickly!! So in the past week I have prepared an Alpha talk, a quiz for all age service, a talk for the light party tomorrow and an hour slot for the 24 hour prayer event.
  • I go to an excellent Church (filled with grace and imperfect people) - our Mission Action Plan for the coming year is super, forward thinking and achievable, which is a huge blessing.
  • As to is our Parish profile while we look for a new vicar. If you are interested in finding out about this excellent church please look here or here.

I'll try to post more regularly!!

P.S. the Christening I went to was a lot longer than it said online but a very welcoming, friendly Church just a bit too high brow for moi!!
