exciting run and rather boring day...

Went for another run/walk this morning! Very nice... but my calves are suffering now so I'll just cycle tomorrow, giving them a break! Shame, those muscles haven't really worked in years. At least I still remember how to run, thought I might have forgotten, lol! I've heard there's a transplant Olympic games....mmm... :-)

Church was nice yesterday. I enjoyed the sermon etc, but just felt very lonely! I think people thought I have TB or some mutant disease with the mask on, so no-one sat close to me! Which is good germ-wise, but nevertheless lonely for a social creature like me! Afterward everyone drank coffee in their little groups, and I didn't feel like walking up to people and just randomly introducing myself. And it's a HUGE church, which might be a difficult environment for mingling. My friend who was supposed to come with me says he won't be able to come next week either, so I'll be checking out an English church, also close by. (for the last 2 years I've been going to an Eng church in PE, Harvest, so I've kind of gotten used to that now) Hopefully those people are more inviting! Wish me luck!

Spent the rest of the day doing washing, ironing, gave my cv off at another place, got a bit lost twice (at least I've got the map!!!), but nothing serious! Also did the normal food shopping, and chatted with Bree, Irma and Anto on MSN/google talk. Wanted to finish my book but didn't, will do that tonight!

The O magazine people are coming for the photoshoot tomorrow, and I'm a bit nervous! Hope it goes well... not really the model/photoshoot type!!!

Our college age daughter is going through the same thing in trying to find a church. It's a hard thing. Praying God directs your steps,keeps you bold to keep trying and causes others to look outward.

Hope you find a church that you like, and fit into, soon.
I've been reading your blog on and off, and decided to stop lurking.
Well done on the run!! You've had a fantastic recovery.

Good luck and stay as fresh as you are!!!!!!!God Bless
