A hectic week
Wednesday, 8th March 2006 by JulieThis had to be a very quick note because there’s been sooo much to do this week, and this evening (my only free one while Tom’s off at the Alpha course) has been mostly taken up with the mindless domesticity of ironing. (Ok, and some extra time with my latest free novel from the Gutenberg Project, My Brilliant Career by Miles Franklin. An absorbing read about life in colonial Australia.)
On Monday evening we wrote and passed our Sports Diver theory test – hurrah! 
The pass mark is 80% – so I skimmed quite close with 86% while Tom scored 93%. Now that we’re through that, it’s just the (cold) practical sessions left to get over!
Looking ahead, this weekend is the St Simon’s Alpha course weekend-away which is being held in Chichester as a combined weekend away with lots of other churches’ Alpha groups. I’m going along for a relaxing weekend away while Tom does his Alpha leader thing. Should be good.

As a final note on My Brilliant Career, it was a good read — but does get quite sad. Once I got past halfway I decided my original description of “fun” didn’t fit that well.
