So far, so good...
Well, it’s day 1, and so far I have
1) Said bedtime prayers with Adam – it was all going swimmingly, following the ACTS acronym (Adoration, Confession, Thanksgiving, Supplication), until we reached supplication, at which point Adam insisted on telling Jesus all about his friend who died… er, no, he doesn’t have a friend who died. Still, death is looming large in his consciousness at the moment (although Mummy, Daddy and Ruth aren’t going to die, because Adam is going to rescue us
), so I guess this may help to give him a handle on it.
2) Have started hunting round Islamic blogs, and have asked if I may link to an Islamic mothering one. I’m also trying to see if I can find any Islamic knitting blogs, but so far I’m getting bogged down in Medieval Muslim stuff – not exactly what I was looking for, but fascinating stuff none-the-less.
3) I’ve sent an email, and now John and I are on the mailing list for the next year of Living Generously, although I can’t quite see how to add our household.
As for the knitting – well, I’m ploughing through the snowcrystals on the back portion – and will then need to pause to think how to do the sleeves. I think I will probably carry on with the same “It’s got to be OK really” approach – it’s not going to be authentic, but I’m 99% confident that it will work 
Oops – just time to finish watching Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban before Despo Housewives is on.
one comment:
I’m very jealous that yu got to Greenbelt hopefully next year, unfortunately I usually bring a bunch of teenagers with me so not sure how much knitting I would get done.Nic (link) - 04 September '05 - 23:47
