resting...

recently at church we've been doing a sermon series on the ten commandments. after hearing the sermon about the sabbath, i was determined to engineer my life so that i could consider my week's work to be finished by saturday night, and thus have a good go at observing the sabbath on sunday - by treating it differently to the other days of the week, particularly by resting instead of working. this picture shows you the excellent progress i had made by friday night:


(those baskets are usually full of clean washing, either folded or not.)

my "resting" kind of ended up being spread across both saturday and sunday, and included sharing meals with several special people we hadn't seen for a while. we also went on a family outing to ikea, where husband (oops, i mean missy) was lucky enough to acquire a new toy. and here is king kong baby destroying it:



(it's a train set, by the way. missy's destructive side is now much more developed than it was here.)

i hope your weekend was restful too.

take care,
