Am enjoying a significant dose of Brothers and Sisters, catch-up dvd viewing with my beloved….Engaging, warm, poignant, complex, brilliant!
Pastoral profiling and all that….? This blog is an interesting write: linking the truth that ‘churches put their pastors on a pedestal and this truth is only worsened when their pastors want to be there!’,…. it’s like a challenge between excellence and grace that I’ve been talking over with some new friends.
Bring on some boredom! Over-stimulation is the enemy of imagination – we should give our children the gift of boredom…. go on smash your Wii’s and those DS games!

Perhaps it was
the new v tasteful knitwear, the lush and meaningful momento’s,
the boxes, the aftershave,
the plastic, the paper, the ribbon and bubble-wrap too,
the fudge, the welcomed chocolate orange, the seasonal bottles,
and mother’s strange ’stocking-filler-contents’ for all possible medical ailments !!
tres leches for sister
one leche alone wouldn’t do
the coffee, the shloer, the wine
the amazing most comfortable chunky boots from my girl, pictures abounding too….
no books…… and even more mysteriously no journals!
7 segments left and I can’t quit
although I’m wrung out and spent.
marinated, roasted and done-in-with-the-sight-of-turkey!!
so in this idle between one holiday and the next
I’m ducking out, trying to find the rest button
to quietly come undone
because every year is the same and I know it:
joy is simple
its everything we do to find it is complicated.
Christmas, core, finding, happiness, joy, rest, truth
something we can all relate too…..?
Have a giggle when you look at the small print: who of you, doesn’t feel like that this at Christmas?!!

How about this;- Jack Bauer Interrogates Santa….!!
You must have recognised that 24 is one of my all-time favourite recent TV events and I think Jack Bauer is the man. Enjoy this you-tube classic?!

….when you’re typing these days!?
Using your laptop in the cold? Try this uniquely uncategorizable item of function and fashion?
Yes – no need to fear the winter months when using your computer! Now you can use the Lorax’s multi-purpose knitted handwarmer, headwarmer and laptop warmer. It has the added benefit that nobody can look over your shoulder at the screen to see the secret-genius you are writing! Just the thing for these snowy-cold days!
cold, fashion, function, snowy, warmer
as much as food can ever be?!

one is never enough to share between two!
never, ever…!

I am doing a writing project and came across this new seasonal fact (!!) that Santa has gone digital!! It’s a new national initative if you should want! or be allowed!! What on earth?!!
I think that takes something of the magic out of the season.
Santa to me is about hand-written notes, cookies, carrots, tradition, etc…..not text messages!
I guess I am old fashioned.
What do you think?
Santa, seasonal, service, silly, text
