I'm not crying...

This time last year I was battling wind and rain and buying new umbrellas, and beginning my campaign against the pension fund. For which I actually have an update - there were protests at the latest meeting and the board agreed to review their portfolio. I can't claim any credit - but at least I know my concerns were not only mine. I hope for good things!

Today, husband and I went out on a gloomy day with a nasty cold wind - that thankfully only blew occasionally. We met my mother and step-father to celebrate their anniversary - and I left the box of VERY nice chocolates I'd bought them on our couch! We went to All Bar One in the middle of town and the food was delicious. And the bill was very reasonable. However, they were playing some music that would have been better in a club and it was very loud. So, I don't think husband and I will go again.

When we got home, I started GoW:R. I was sobbing within 5 minutes ;( I'm struggling a bit with the controls but I'm sure I'll get there. And, of course, I'm playing on story mode, so I'm sure I'll get through it.

Tomorrow is Racial Justice Sunday and at first I thought I wouldn't go - I'd be too ashamed of us at the moment. But then I realised, that's exactly why I should go. It's not about patting ourselves on the back, it's about acknowledging where we've gone wrong and offering repentance - in the true sense of the word, to change one's attitude. So, I shall go to be humble.

And now I'm watching Emma 2020, which is also bringing tears... and laughter. It is so very well done.
