Getting there

Wrapped loads of presents Saturday... daughter came over and wrapped hers too.  Then we had my usual Saturday night Chinese takeaway.  Husband had his chicken and chips.  Watched x-factor then did some more wrapping and then watched 'An Audience With Take That Live!'

It was excellent...what band can get together after 10 years apart and still be as good, followed by 'Parkie'.  A great evening, so great i slept in this morning till 10am.

Have got another busy week next week.  Monday is the second and last of the listening course i am leading, tuesday a group of us are going into a sheltered accommodation complex to take a carol service for the elderly and Wednesday will be the bible study group i lead.  Thursday and Friday i get to stay in at night.  Yipee!!

Work is building up for christmas (i work in a christian bookshop) and as is usual this time of year family problems have come yet again.  Just when you think everything is going well for a change.....

Still compared to other peoples problems on here mine are small by comparison.

Next sunday will be granddaughters 11th birthday.  Not sure what is happening yet as she usually goes to her dad's at weekends so will have to wait and see.  Saturday is my saturday at work but i am wanted at church to meet a prospective new Minister.  Now what makes you think that next week is going to be as busy as last week, and somewhere in this i have to try and go christmas shopping.  Roll on January!!

But God is good and he will see me through as he always does and i choose to keep a smile on my face and get on with it.

I can't imagine a nicer place to work than a bookstore, however I was also raised in a bookstore so they tend to give me good positive feelings. :-)  You certainly have a busy week ahead of you, I hope you take a few minutes to find time to breath and enjoy a few minutes of each day.
