Well – tomorrow’s the big day. So, yesterday I went on retreat. I really thought about what I wanted to do, where I wanted to go. This is what I ended up with:
- morning – relaxing, checked email
- lunch – with the woman who was my interpreter when I was in the deaf class
- afternoon – target shooting with my friend Marc. I used his .45 – which I think is my favorite. He also has a revolver that holds .38s and .357s. Fun looking, but better accuracy with the .45.
- massage
- the candy store – peanut butter and chocolate covered oreos. YUM!
- time on the waterfront in Allegan. Just me and the water and trees and birds and fountains. I love to sit there. It’s one of the places that I will miss.
- the ice cream shop – to look for a friend. She was working, so she gave me free ice cream for my ordination present. We talked for a good long time.
- the library – to read friend’s blogs. Boy, I can’t wait to get back to a fast connection. I definitely won’t be missing the dial in.
It was a fun day. Not quite what other people would call “retreat” but definitely what I needed to be doing.
Today has been the last minute stuff – stole and chausible to the church. Setting up the rehearsal bulletin – so I know what I’m doing. Running through Eucharistic Prayers for Sunday.
Big breath…and I promise to relax!
