And today was no different, even though I was having trouble finding my matching jewellery. So ... no black bracelet to match the earrings BUT I found the spool of black thread and needle for fixing up some of my clothing. ::rolls eyes:: NOW I find it? Before I left for church, I started watching last week's service, because I'd had to leave early. And then I was off to church. My driver got me there so early, I had lots of time to sit outside and enjoy the breeze and sunshine. Brent was away (probably both from his mom-in-law dying and the excitement/stress of the anniversary service). So Rev. Don did the announcy stuff while Rev. Deana both preached and presided. As I was on duty, she provided some amazing sound bites for my communion prayer (I thanked her for that after service). I also reconnected with my sis RS and my mommy Ruby and other friends (including a new fb friend who came up to me for communion, so NOW I know what he looks like). Regarding the whole best-day-of-the-week feeling that fizzles by Saturday, thereby requiring a booster innoculation on Sunday, I had a chance to put that into perspective while talking with a woman I see regularly but don't have that much interaction with. She said that it was no wonder I was having the fizzling out symptoms, considering that John was absent during the week but usually home all day Saturday and Sunday. Sunday wouldn't be a huge matter because I was away from 9 until 2, so it all came down to too much togetherness on only ONE day. ::rolls eyes:: I'm surprised I didn't put 2 plus 2 together before.
I had loads of time to wait outside as my ride wasn't until 12:55. My driver was a real sweetheart and asked me about my vision loss. We ended up talking about how, if you're waiting for the right time (retirement, etc.) to go ahead with major plans, you'd better know you're risking the fact that extreme life changes may take those opportunities away. Anyway, I was finally home at 1:45 and was glad to be inside where I could collapse. Luckily, John was still away (left home early this morning), so I had the place to myself. I finished watching the end of last week's service where I'd missed the ending and finally had a nap (after dozing off playing solitaire again).
Right now, I think I'm nodding off. I still have some cheese and crackers not to mention lots of cherries to nibble on. So ... here I go, back to ::giggles:: smiling in self-indulgence!
