Halloween in North American is QUITE a big deal, I can tell you. It has been an education. I know over the last few years in the UK Halloween has become a lot more popular, and people get a lot more into it now, but I’m telling you, they are amateurs. Just across the road [...]

some photos
feeling lonely this week. it feels like a very long time since i have lived with Jason!
I know I have many blessings to count though, so that’s what I’m trying to do. It’s very disconcerting though, having no home, and no husband. I won’t go on, as I will get myself upset, and it’s harder [...]

i looked left first!
Not that much to report this week really. Been very busy, just doing the normal stuff, looking after the kids, cooking, cleaning, laundry. I resolved last weekend to try very hard to get out for a run three times a week. I had been hoping to join the gym once I got here, but while [...]

Special Assembly Day today – it was a really excellent day. The children were so good – they usually do rise to the occasion for assemblies, so although it was hard work, I had lots of help, and managed to listen to most of the programme, which was great. Reallly appreciated the [...]

Another fun day out for the kids – do you think I am doing enough for the kids??! Well, it is the Special Assembly Day tomorrow, so I decided it would be good to do something recreational today. Plus I’ve had a rough couple of days and I wanted to get out [...]

s.a.d
J: just a short entry about the Special Assembly Day this past weekend. No doubt R will update you about the Secord Woods S.A.D – coincidentally Coulsdon had theirs on the same day so I went along with R’s family. I thought it would be neat that although not together as a family we would [...]

in the country
Friday 9 October 2008
The kids had a day off school today, as it’s Thanksgiving Weekend here. Rosie went on the ministry for the morning, and then we went out together for the afternoon in the country. A sister I have befriended in the congregation has a little girl who is Johnnie’s age, and we have [...]
