Appologies all
I have recently realised how lazy I am in general when it comes to updating LJ.
So -
Q - what has been happening recently?
A - a heck of a lot of work.
As is to be expected seeing I am in the early throes of dissertation writing. Still not managing those precious 40 hours of work though (dream on principal!).
In specific, this weeks work has been to read through lots of gospel commentaries - searching out the healing miracles of Jesus in them. Plenty in Matt, Mark, and Luke, less in John. Next weeks task is to write 300 solid words from said research. Oh, and todays task was to come up wiht a presentation for Tuesday for my Theological Anthropology class - that was all about Egoity - as opposed to Egoism.
Other than work - well, as some of you know, I was away last weekend - with 12 kids. They were surprisingly good - could have been a lot worse, though some of the situations were... rather odd!
The rest of this week - rather singular. Work Mon-Wed evenings - I cancelled out on something on Tuesday night - I regret it now cause while it was valuable doing the work, I found it harder to concentrate the following day. I was out Thurs and Fri nights though.
Thursday saw Cell group, which was great fun. We had home made pizza (which I'd sworn off only the previous Sunday cause I'd had so much of it over the weekend! Never mind!) and chatted, and discussed a book, and it was 11:30 before I got home again.
Yesterday saw Rainbows where I was playing Leader-in-charge and we had games (Shopping basket, party games with a hoop, and hedgehogs to finish with), colouring (help at home hands, and pictures), and songs (Hello my name is Joe, and Crazy Moose).
Then I ended up landing in on CU for a bit. It was sign up night. I managed to avoid signing up for anythign else, feeling I'd be shot if I took any more on this semseter. However the worship was good (wish people had avoided being rude enough to talk through it however) and the sermon was interesting. I also enjoyed cathcing up with friends. Then it was home, and teatime. I was back in by about 9pm, so that wasn't too bad. I've had tea at that time or later on Thursdays before now.
Anyway, talking time, it is now bedtime. Good night all!
