That time of year!

Sunday is the first in Advent. I know this because I am on a preaching team (at Anne Widdecombe's brother's church!) and had a quick look at the lectionary for inspiration (didn't use it cos they were all about hellfire and I couldn't quite bring myself to talk about people/ God arriving on clouds). But the advent season kind of sums things up just now. Waiting for some really good and exciting stuff to happen.

But still waiting.

On Sunday I'm going to talk about John Baptist and how he kept himself amused whilst waiting (I'm not going to treat it as flippantly as that). I just am beginning to be aware that I am living in my own sermon!

I might also try to make a Blue Peter advent crown!

Or maybe not!

That is such a good idea! Not spoken about much but the what's that say about the devil and idle hands. Excellent - you go girl (said with an American accent and a jolty neck movement). xc

Remembering What I Enjoy..

Occasionally I forget things. Some stuff like birthdays, names and stuff is a normal human thing, and I don't sweat it so much. But I also forget some other stuff which is not so good. I forget what I enjoy. I don't know how it happens but it does from time to time. And its at these moments that I need a bit of help remembering. So- this is a request for help. What do I enjoy doing? What gives me joy? Leave me a comment.

Who will rid me of this meddlesome...

... piano? It occurred to me yesterday as i nursed ANOTHER bruise on my arm.. that I have had a piano sat in my hallway for 2 months! It seemed like such a good idea at the time but apparently is not... its stuck there and everytime I walk down my hall I have to squeeze past the darn thing- often not successfully! A number of options lie before me: -chop the thing into several hundred pieces -find lots of people who want to move it.. to where I'm not sure -sell it -give it away -pray it away It goes next weekend.. even if it kills me... which it might.. hummm
