This is my second busiest week of the year (surpassed only by Christian Aid Week). I've been out every evening and will need to explain to our guest that it's not usually like this. It has been lovely tho - lots of celebrating with those alongside whom I volunteer and work day by day. Our singing earned the accolade of "fine" which whilst not over-enthusiastic will do in terms of praise.
The rushing doesn't stop just yet even tho school finishes today- whilst I'd love a lie in tomorrow, we have to get away early and I think the weekend celebrations will be full on. The one day of work I then come back to might be interesting - will it be trying to do a week's work in the one day? Will it mean today's day at work I'm trying to cram in lots before I leave?
Yesterday I was very glad to have time to contact some friends in need of connection rather than it all be about rushing. I think it's good to remember what it is all about, and it certainly isn't about rushing.
... Well, there was a fair bit of cramming. Now to pack, and take a book to my son's iceskating rather than dash there and back twice. Usually when we go to Dufton it is for some unwinding, I think this weekend will be different, but hopefully delightful nonetheless. I'll blog when I can but am determined to focus on my family rather than facebook :)
