Looking back, looking forward

rosa_heartlily Took the grandson to Crosby on Saturday to see Despicable Me 3 at the Plaza. The Crosby Plaza is an independent cinema that is run as a charity, so ticks lots of boxes. But it's tiny and when we got there they had sold out. I had thought about booking tickets as soon as we got of the train but I didn't. We had already been around town spending some of his money AND had an hour on the beach making sandcastles, so it wasn't a complete wash out. I am going to check if it's still on this weekend (if it's THAT popular, I expect it will be) and book online!
Our 'my favourite bible passage' series came to an end on Sunday. A not-very-inspiring theme that threw up loads of stuff from four very different speakers. I love how the worship planning 'hive mind' works! M will be at our next meeting - it's her very first meeting as Rector. What an introduction. And I'm actually publicising it for a change. Go me!
In exactly two weeks it will be our 25th wedding anniversary and we'll be waking up in Cardiff. I really want this trip to go well. The husband is full of doom and gloom, but my eternal positivity says it won't be as bad as he fears. However, I need to remember that some of what he predicts is very likely to come true and to be prepared!
I am greeting Sophie every morning, at the moment. One of the on-going problems with her is that, now that we've made friends, I still feel she's a separate thing. We need to be integrated for all this to have any point. Trying to call on her 'when I need her' isn't integration and makes me feel I'm using her. So, behaving like a friend, popping round to her tower to say 'good morning' feels like a way forward. Her tower looks incredibly like Rapunzel's in 'Witcher 3: Blood and Wine' - but they are both inspired by story book illustrations, so it's probably not to be wondered at.
I'm about 19 hours into FFXII:ZA and getting lost in the Henne Mines. There are now TWO bloody high-level dinosaurs living down there! It was bad enough tackling one. Thank goodness for 'fleeing'! I didn't get to play last night as the son was doing quizzes for the husband and me on Beatles' song titles. I was a bit irritated at the start but 'the family that plays together stays together' and all that. AND I ended up laughing until I cried - I have no idea why but it was that kind of night. I love my boys!
OK, time to get this day started.
