Drinking a beer at Tom & Rebbie’s (365:071) – I spent most of the day variously doing my accounts and studiously avoiding doing my accounts. Fortunately, I had an even better distraction this evening, as we’d been invited to spend the evening with Tom, Rebbie, Dash and Leslie.

Doing the dishes (365:065) – A fairly typical Sunday. Up at Seven, in church by half eight, and back out around eleven forty or so. We stopped to do some grocery shopping on the way home, and by one pm it was Sunday nap time (and yes that is frequently an euphemism). I didn’t surface until gone five, it was a tiring week.

At the end of the day (365:061) — Today was a quiet day. Which is another way of saying I can’t really remember what we did. I spent the day in general pottering around, recovering, and processing pictures from yesterday’s hike. We went to Youth Group and KfC in the evening.
