This is the week that was - 2

I wanted to start with 2 photos - but its not working, so that will be a separate post.

Church - last Sunday I was early to set up the sound system but because I was teaching in the Sunday school my friend Peter ran it for me.
Another friend, John, helped me in the group. Since there are 5 boys in the group (and only 1 girl) it was a big success and I appreciated his presence. His Bible knowledge and powerful prayers were also appreciated.

Hippo Club is a major outreach of the church. To impart this vision there was a mock up during the service! On Wednesday morning it was busier than the week before. I love to see the church full of toys - large and small - for the children, and lots of people enjoying themselves, having a cup of coffee and chatting to each other.

In the evening, it was back to the church for a meeting of the redevelopment committee. Suffice it to say that the cavernous building has been so cold this winter, we are anxious to do something!

Hospital - this week there were a lot of unwell and uncheerful patients - except for one lady who told me she was Armenian and a Christian. Although unwell, she was very cheerful.

People I have seen - on the way home from the hospital I met Verona for lunch in the new cafe in James Selby. They do very nice organic soup.
On Sunday we had a large apple crumble in honour of our visitors, M and E, friends of the Craigies who have come to live in this part of London.

On TV - I watched interviews with Will Smith, so decided to catch up on some videos. For some reason I chose 'Lost in Translation', but missed a lot cos I didn't know how to work the pause function! But I do, now!

The weather - has been slightly warmer most days - mostly above freezing.

In the garden - at the moment it is still dark, and has just stopped raining. Storms forecast for this afternoon. Oh dear, Evie is going to a wedding.

Things I have bought - two new pairs of flip flop type sandals, in the sales, and 3 books in Borders '3 for 2' offer. Never before have I seen 3 books all at once that I wanted to read! The man who served me said it was a 'cosmic collision 'type of event! Also got my scrapbook magazine.

Things I have done - At last I have finished saving (drying) all the photos in storage. They are now safely stored in plastic boxes.
I have packed and posted a little parcel for the birthday girl in Bemaho.
I have finished the covers of a book of photos for Papy. I have progressed with several scrapbook pages - the Gospel Oak paddling pool. the Museum of Childhood, and The Lonely Dragon.

I am looking forward to starting a scrapbook of my life - I have the baby photos ready - and doing some work on my Circle Scrapbook.
