NORMAL SERVICE WILL RESUME A.S.A.P.

The MadPriests spent today with Viv from ZEN AND THE ART OF TIGHTROPE WALKING and the living saint she shacks up with. It was a lovely day and Viv has given me some good ideas for future projects (which may even bring some money into the MadPriest household).

Yesterday, I managed to walk through the door of a church and attend a communion service. I had contacted the vicar beforehand because my research indicated that he was of the right sort and he looked out for me on the day. I enjoyed myself. I have been invited to a different church (it never rains but it pours) and I think I will go there next Sunday. I have decided to enjoy the process of finding a new home (or more than one home) rather than be scared by the thought of it.

Thanks for all your advice. Sometimes (okay, usually) I take my time coming to decisions but, believe me, without you help I would never make any at all.

  13. You went to church?! AWESOME!

    Given that I am the human incarnation of a big clumsy Labrador puppy, I wish I could jump thru the computer and hug you, but that puts you off your breakfast, so I won't.

    But I can be thrilled for you, right?!

  14. PS: I knew there was an inner Viking somewhere in your soul that was not about to let anything stand between you and Holy Eucharist. :D

  15. From Joe: "Your inner Viking was saying 'well that IS where they keep the loot!'"

    Blame him, not me! I just hope it makes you laugh. :D
