Just a run of the mill boring post.
We have had a good week so far. Even with the reality of life kicking in as it always does.
Our strange drains decided to play up again causing a rather impresive flood in the downstairs loo!! After letting out the bath it flowed straight down and through! No wonder turning off the water at the mains made no difference at all. It is a possibility that there could be a small on going problem,all clear for now though. The drains people we had out 'Bee Clear' are excellent and don't rip you off. I had feared (after a chat with a plumber) a huge problem involving escavating the back yard etc, but the drains guy said it wouldn't be that drastic and was more likely to be a thing called the rest bend,so I thank the Lord for that.
He has taught me through this that I can face big problems whilst trusting Him. I had and sometimes do have a problem with facing problems and tackling them without heading for the hills or having a flip out. Anyone else like that?! Amazing that the flood thing didn't even disrupt the day, the children just carried on with their Pop Art project and I filled the drain guys in on the situation!!
I would not have coped that long ago,I did feel like I was being put through my paces!! I think I passed that particular test,thanks to the Lord.
So on to more conventional posting!!
This week is the last one of the year for ordainary learning,next week it's onto an all out Christmas fest learning theme, for five or so weeks.We always have so much that we want to do. I thought I'd make a big project of it instead of slotting it in to the last couple of weeks.
I'm not all together sure about what it will look like apart from majorly featuring on celebrating the birth of Christ.
Also just to mention a few ideas we have along those lines,my eldest is keen to write and perform our own Pantomime so will probably do that and we have always wanted to explore the Nut Cracker,everything about it the music it's composer and Ballet and maybe some of the history around it. That and the usual craft and cooking activities.I hope to spend some time planning this weekend.
Got to shoot going round to inlaws. We get to go to a prayer for our City night tonight,just me and Hub. Its not a date but still looking forward to time together.
Hope you all have a terrific weekend.
