I’m joining with lots of others in looking for little joys in the month of February. For all the details pop over to Elisabeth’s blog.
Sunday 1st: Getting back to church after the break. Catching up with everyone after the service.
Monday 2nd: First week back of term for our mainly music group. The kids make me laugh so much, and their joy and wonder is infectious. The local shop had prawns today which are usually sold out, so we had a prawn stirfry for dinner with the girls for family dinner.
Tuesday 3rd: Today I enjoyed putting together my video from January. I love looking back at photos and videos. I also had a nap.
Wednesday 4th: I started reading The Age of Innocence. I love her brand of biting wit. It reminds me a little bit of Les Miserables. The insights into ridiculous societal expectations make me giggle.
Thursday 5th: Mangoes. They are probably my favourite seasonal fruit. Although I like cherries too and we had some of them this week as well. I had music practice for Sunday and it went well. We managed to get the songs organised in 30 minutes. I picked two songs that I felt comfortable with and that helped.
Friday 6th: We tried a new to us vietnamese takeout for takeout Friday and it was good. I think we will add it into our regular rotation.
Saturday 7th: Being able to make it to our friend’s birthday celebration. Every time our vicar has asked us over to a party at their place we’ve had something else on. Had some lovely chats with some of the young adults that I hadn’t met before.
Sunday 8th: worship went mostly smoothly. The singers did miss the chorus repeat, but I played an extra bar on the piano and then sang them in myself, with Fi catching on and taking it up. One of our young adults mentioned Pancake Tuesday and since uni hasn’t started yet I suggested she organise something. By the time we were leaving church after morning tea, she had a little team on board with the details sorted and by the evening a digital flyer was being distributed. I love that when someone has a heart to do something, people get behind and run with it. It rained later in the day which we really needed, but also stopped long enough for us to walk to and from church in the evening.
Are you counting FIGs this February?
