No, not Wednesday but Tuesday

You know sometimes you may think . . . and then you realise you don't have time.

The safeguarding course I have signed up for that I thought was on Wednesday is on Tuesday. The latest email says I should have done Level A before this course (this wasn't mentioned originally) - and that I can do it online.

I'm leading Zac's study on Tuesday so need to finish prep for that. It's also Marcus' birthday on Tuesday so my vague thought that I could get away without making a cake this week has come to naught. (I know I could buy one but . . .)

This last week it was Claire our chef's birthday so I made brownies (most excellent brownies even though I say it myself) and took those in to celebrate on Thursday lunchtime. It's also Stu's birthday tomorrow.

Friday morning I was back in Zac's for an emergency trustee meeting. Our chair had announced his retirement and Poj and I were elected as co-chairs. Should point out there was not a lot of option as our only remaining trustee is in Hong Kong, and is a silent trustee. Some big decisions had to be made. More information to follow when certain things have happened.

In between times I've been thinking about my pilgrimage and writing - and getting distracted. But now I need to put it to one side while I focus on safeguarding and prep for bible study. Also buying food for dinner. And watching England women play France in the Rugby World Cup semi-finals. Amazing show from Canada last night beating reigning champions, New Zealand, especially considering the Canadian team had to crowd-fund to pay for their training and travelling expenses.

So, sorry, I haven't been blog-visiting much. Need to shake a leg now.

But I did notice it was World Bamboo Day earlier this week. Apparently it's the fast-growing plant in the world - as if anyone needed to tell me that. Also it would have been George's birthday today.
