Sunday Sundries and a belated birthday
First, happy birthday to talullahred! I'm sorry I missed it, and I know you aren't around here much, but I hope it was a good one.
We went to church today for the first time in a month. I enjoy attending and I especially like the formal rituals of this particular Anglican church. Smells and bells, as the priest calls it. It seems like many times we attend, the Crucifer is a blond boy of around 15-16 who I like to call the Sullen Teen. If he's ever cracked a smile, I've never seen it. Before the service, he was standing in the Narthex glaring at the floor and flipping a shock of blond hair out of his eyes. He looked SO familiar. When we sat down, I looked up his name in the back of the service program, and did a double-take. I dated his dad in high school. Has to be him, because that last name is very unusual. I'd told a friend several months ago that if I were in high school, Sullen Teen is the sort I would have crushed on. As it turns out, I did! He looks a lot like his dad, with the exception that his dad would have been struck by lightening if he'd tried to be an altar boy. I had a taste for the bad ones back in the day. LOL
Mom and I went shopping yesterday. She's doing well, but is becoming more forgetful. She told me the same story twice, which is something she never would have done when she was younger. Nothing serious, but I've been noticing it. :/
We had a quiet weekend for a change. I think we'll build a fire again tonight and watch a movie on Netflix.
TV - We finished up Midnight, TX and Homecoming and are looking for a new show. Good Omens doesn't start for a while. I think we're going to try The Umbrella Academy and see how it goes. I'll let you know what we think.
