Another Sunday afternoon

I enjoy my Sundays.  I walk to church (if it's not raining) at 9 am to the Anglican church up the road. 

A chat and morning tea after the service.  

Then home in time to watch Songs of Praise on BBC TV.

And a quiet afternoon...

"Life is a long journey, and we will always need the light of His companionship and encouragement every step, every day.  Store up His love and truth daily that Jesus might be to you the light of your world, and you will not walk in darkness but have the light of life.  

May we be collectors of light and bearers of light so that we shine forth today.  May we walk in the light of His counsel as a way of life, as rhythmic as breathing through all the moments of our lives."

Well Lived - Sally Clarkson

Open wide the windows of our spirits,

O, Lord, and fill us full of light;

Open wide the door of our hearts,

That we may receive and entertain Thee

With all our powers of adoration and love.

- Christina Rossetti

Whirlwind Weeks

 Hello friends!

Finally getting back with a blog post.  It's been a busy few weeks.  A visit from Natasha from the US.  Lovely to see her but way too short...

Natasha, me, Marnie

We had terrible weather the whole time she was here (and are still having it: winds, rain,) but we did manage a walk on Pig Island amongst many visits to cafes for coffee and cake :)

The whole family hope to come for a visit next year.

Been working on Hazel's Christmas blanket.  You may have caught a glimpse of it in a previous post...

She likes pink, and bright rainbow colours :)

And I'm in crime mode with my reading.  Ann Cleeves.  I really enjoyed the TV series (Vera and Shetland) but had never read any of her books...

they are good!

And finished this pet blanket for K4C and mailed it on its way to a pet shelter in the south of the state...

I tried to get Freya to pose with it, but she was having none of it.  The bears were happy to oblige though.

My walk early this morning :)

I'll be back...
