That sounds like a lovely way to spend an afternoon, Connie.

The new meds are doing wonders for my sinus infection. I can sort of see why people stop taking their antibiotics too soon, as I suspect I won't feel I need them by Monday. (I'll keep taking them, no worries.)

Glad you're feeling better, Calli! I am a fan of the kind of illnesses that antibiotics can actually fix.

My mother's church is doing a program at a local mosque today and she wanted me to go, but I just can't. I'm interested in doing it, but I am still so wiped out from my week at work! I can't bear the thought of being social with all of those people and also learning new things. I feel sort of pathetic, but no. I will stay here and do housework alone.

So, we've definitely decided that we are going to move. Ann Arbor area, here we come! We have to work out a timeline and everything, but I've very excited. It is not public knowledge.

Wow, that's exciting!

I have just burned out my mother's shredder dealing with lots and lots of old paperwork, so I feel better and hope the shredder does soon.

Exciting Scrappy!! Though sad I'm even less likely to see you in person!

Jesse that's understandable.

Me, I went to karaoke last night but made good choices and didn't drink too much or stay out too late. So now I'm at breakfast movie, I'm going to see "Lion".

Yay good choices!

One thing I love about Sundays is standing in my bathrobe, watching the heavy cold rain come down as people in their good clothes scamper unhappily to their cars as they head off to three hours of church.

Ah, and there's someone honking impatiently. I think I'll go leisurely put on outside clothes and wander off to the store. In a bit.

Three hours of church? That seems like a lot.

Congrats on the decision, Scrappy! I hope the Ann Arbor area treats you well.

Three hours of church? That seems like a lot.

LDS standard. An hour of Sunday school, an hour of gender/job specific meetings, an hour of Sacrament in the chapel. Many people only show up for Sacrament, but they're supposed to be there for the whole bit. There are so many people attending the various ward houses (one or more per neighborhood depending on population density) that they have to rotate the various worship groups though the required rooms.

Oh, and you're assigned to a particular ward/worship cohort depending on where you live. If you move, you're then assigned to a different ward, possibly a different building. All the services are standardized, anyway.

I ended up not getting to visit with shrift

What's entertaining is that I thought about sticking around to chat but I was starving by the end of the Town Hall. I headed home to grab lunch, and on the way, David and Matilda got on my train car. We had a chat and I got to see Matilda's awesome artwork.
