Ash Wednesday

February 22, 2007

I was going to go to church last night but somehow from the morning when I got up and remembered it was Ash Wednesday to last night at about 8 when I remembered again, it had slipped my mind.

I suppose having a doctor’s appointment for Widget, who has some unidentifiable rash (at least it wasn’t chicken pox like I was beginning to think) and a therapy appointment along with 3 phone calls from our realtor- can we have a showing?  How about 3:30?  Oh, wait the buyers would want to close in two weeks and that’ll never happen with a short sale, so nevermind, probably account for that slip-up.

As for my Lenten intentions, I’m going to try to spend at least a few minutes every day in order to do some reflecting on my spiritual life.  I also wrote my testimony because I would like to join our church this spring (and I’m hoping T will commit to writing his- he says he’s ready but he’s an excellent procrastinator- heh heh, that’s pot calling the kettle black).  I may need to some editing to my testimony as it is rather long.  I tend to be kind of rambly at times ;)

I also need to contact the woman who sets up the life groups at our church.  The one we were going to join fizzled because we lost two families to other things and then I never heard anything from the group that was looking to add.  We need to get involved in something.  Alpha was great last year but it was such a huge commitment and the child care thing got too complicated, that we decided not to participate again.  And I’m struggling with my Tuesday morning women’s group.  I’ve missed almost all of the meetings since Christmas- I think I made it twice and I won’t make it next week as T has an appointment with an “Ears, Nose, Throat” specialist and I am going with him.  I don’t quite know what to do because I’m not feeling very connected to the women in my group, even though they are very nice, and that makes it hard for me to get going when I’m not motivated or when Widget is making it difficult to get out the door.

Oh, and soon I will be moving this blog again. I got in on a deal for site hosting, paying only $1 plus domain registration.  So once I sort out getting my site set up and my blog transferred, I’ll post the new link here.  This way I’ll be able to use some different templates, add-ins that the free blog here at wordpress doesn’t allow.  I’m getting in the thick of it with web site administration, set-up, etc.  Much techno-geek stuff to figure out.
