Getting back into routine at Bugallon

Wednesday, 14th September 2011

I had a little sleep-in this morning and feel as though I could sleep for the whole day, Jinky had even left for work before I was up.

Clothes washing again, however this time with a bit less haste, partly because there was no rush and partly because we had no energy. The children enjoyed being back at the hall where they could play outside on the grass or in the hall. All the kids had sleeps after lunch and they slept until after 4:00pm.

Tina had our lunch served at 12:00 exactly, she cooks using a good amount of vegetables which we all really appreciate.

Following lunch I spent some time copying photos to the computer and batch processing them ready to go on the web. Then copying all the relevant files onto a memory stick to take to the internet cafe. Sarah and I walked to the internet cafe at Magtaking (I enjoyed to chance to have a walk and a talk), we really should have taken some water with us though. We set about updating the blog and checking emails etc... Two hours on the computer and the blog is now only one week behind – yahoo (google actually). We met Sis Jinky there, she has to go there to send work emails to Aus.

There was just enough time for Silas, Noah and myself to have a shower when we got back – before all the people started arriving for the Wednesday Bible class. Tea was prepared by the usual culprits (Jinky, Tina, Cesar, Jonathan, Jodel) and we ate before the Bible class. Sis Consing was busy before tea sweeping all the leaves outside and burning the rubbish. Oh for the days when we all had incinerators in our back yards, no mosquitoes bothering you when you are followed around by the smoke of the fire.

We did a study on Judges 15 (Othniel and Achsah) and there were quite a few questions afterwards. They said it was their first time to hear this subject.

We went to bed at the same time as the children, they were all talking/complaining and we were lying exhausted on our bed hoping that they would go to sleep quickly. I am not sure if they did because I fell asleep myself.

Sorry there are no photos - too tired to pick up the camera!
