Hello all.
it’s been forever. I’ve wanted to keep up here, but I’m in grad school full time and I’m working almost the equivalent of twice full-time in my job right now. I love love LOVE my job (otherwise there’s NO WAY I could carry on) but it’s hugely stressful just trying to keep up. It looks like I’ve got quite a few more months like this.
I miss Church even, way too much. Everything in school is due on Sundays so if I don’t stay ahead I’m having to catch up that day. Church being a long drive ... well. And on top of that, working with kids and apparently my immune system is still not in good shape, I’m sick quite often. Sick again now and not long recovered from pneumonia, and I am fully scheduled with clients this week and then some, so I’m going to have to choose carefully which Holy Week services to attend.
So anyway ... I keep hearing “Lord of the Powers” in my mind. It’s a compline hymn, isn’t it? But I just can’t remember which service I think we sing during Holy Week.
I hope they stream the other services. If I cut out of work immediately when my last clients leave, maybe I can catch the livestream of ones I have to miss entirely.
I’ve missed being here.
blessed Holy Week to all!
