helenkacan Sep. 27th, 2015 11:25 pm)Naturally, you must know I'm describing my Sunday, even if I was forced (forced, I tell you) to wear socks and closed-toe shoes (because I wasn't in the mood to walk through cold dew ::shudders::) and a beret (because I didn't want to gum up my hair with product prior to colouring). My driver was early, but so was I and soon he was taking me on a sightseeing trip on a sunny morning. Even with the extra time to pick up another passenger, I still arrived at church before 9:45.
Chatted with loads of people (I especially like including all the names in my FB summaries). Ashley texted both church-John and me, sending her regrets. So we gave her part of the pew away! I was thrilled NOT to be on duty today. Why? Because the music director had scheduled my absolutely favest hymn (if you discount the Lord's Prayer), namely "When Peace Like A River" as the second Communion hymn. I got to belt it out, only pausing a few seconds when receiving Communion! C-J had brought me the batteries and light bulbs he'd purchased and also asked whether I need a dish drainer and tray, because he has one he doesn't need. Why do I get the impression he's cleaning up his place ONLY by giving away his extra clutter. ::chuckles but accepts good fortune::
My cab was early and the driver was playing my fave classical music station for a very serene ride home. When I got in, I scurried over to my computer to write something appropriate, different, captivating. Talk about putting pressure on myself. After I posted (and finished my laundry), I went out onto the back deck to capture the last of the sun's rays. I didn't know Ce-Ce had also been out, but she was on her hind legs, leaning against the screen door, telling me, "In, Auntie'lenka, in," so I let her in. But Diva, oh Diva. She'd been lounging when I'd come home and was so not interested in coming in. We both relaxed, listening to the tinkling wind chimes, for nearly an hour. Then I propelled her at the door and, thankfully, she accepted my suggestion. Oy. Cats.
I was surprised to see the response my FB post had generated. One of my friends, a clergy candidate, asked if she could share. Hee. Normally, people don't ask. I also found out that I and my weekly summaries had been a topic of conversation at the Town Hall Meeting held immediately after the service, ostensibly for the purpose of discussing Brent's transition to retirement. As our fave Sulu actor would say, "Oh, myyy." Indeed. And I'm thrilled to have found one small way in which i can contribute in my own unique manner (hmm, sorta goes with the subject of today's Lesson).
Enjoyed my dinner of baked chicken and 'taters with butter, along with a Bloody Caesar. Many of my friends tried photographing the lunar eclipse, etc., but stupid clouds spoiled their plans. Still, I hope someone may have captured the action.
