Resumption of Normal Service...(i) (Category: Life)

Right, folks. I will now attempt to get back on track with this blogging lark (is that a sweet-singing bird with a blog?)

I think I mentioned in my last post something about the challenge to think with more theological rigour, and somewhat surprisingly perhaps this blog provides the opportunity to do that, as well as encouraging the habit of regular writing.

I do, however, have a few points in my defence. Despite it feeling like I've had a little more personal space, as well as family space since number 2 is due in January, I've also been plagued by a swarm of migraines (well 3 in 3 weeks, 2 of them in the same week. And believe me, a migraines 20 minutes before leading Holy Communion is no joke, I assure you!) It's a common feature of the autumn for me - mainly a result of the sun being low in the sky and something to do with high levels of contrast between light and shadow. It's also a reminder that I need to get my eyes checked again - and I haven't or two years now, so I'd better. Isn't it lucky that an opticians has been added to the list of amenities in MLPK (not that I can probably afford it!)

Talking of affording our television has also died. One day short of a year after the purchase of a reconditioned set, to replace the two LM broke (!), it went "pop" and worketh not. It looks like we might eventually get round to renting a set, just like the old days - but until then we have been generously indefinitely "lent" a set to keep CBeebies viewable. If you read this and you know who you are, thank you again - LM has already worked out the buttons!

Until that time the "new" one looks more like a little one eyed god in the corner of the room, rather than the large idol to entertainment and information that dominated the lounge before. It feels right, but the you forget how small a small TV is...

More to follow on "Faith".....  ¶ 7:42 pm
