It's a long time since I read John Bunyan's Pilgrim's Progress, but unlike most of the books I read as a child, I can still remember parts of it. Maybe it's time for a re-read to see if it's timely to encourage my kids to read it? I wonder if my Dad still has a copy. We're going there this weekend, which I always enjoy, tho I'm not sure if there will be much time for relaxing as I'm off early on the Saturday to chair a training day, whilst my parents hang out with the kids. I'm still undecided about the evening before - I don't want to miss choir as I can't make the following two weeks, but if I go, we then have to go back home for the dog and won't arrive til really late. I'll see how badly I need a sing/community hug come friday. Right now I'm very much in need of a big sing. And a massive swear too, would probably help. Thankfully it's wednesday so I should get the former, and maybe I'll ask a friend to help me with the latter too.
I'm aware of the saying that when we wish we were someone else, if we put all our troubles in a big pile we'd be quick to grab our own back when we realised everyone else's are no easier than our own. Hope whatever troubles you have they are bearable today. I'm going to try and fling mine in a lake or something.
...
No lakes, no swearing, and off to take a child for a book signing with Dick and Dom (who?) so suspect I won't get much cursing opportunity there. Still in my slough of despond, but know which buttons it is that have been pressed to get me there, so all I have to do...
