…. And the fun continues

Treated myself to a well deserved sleep in on Saturday. I had a routine appointment with my opthamologist late in the morning so headed to the city and back home in time for lunch. Had a hair cut and caught some sleep to fortify myself for the evening out.

It was Esther’s First Holy Communion mass and celebration in the evening. Although all the children usually receive it at the same time, Mark and Vanessa wanted to have it while they were down. Mass was at Our Lady of Salvation, Dadar. Fr. Francis celebrated mass which was the only part of the mass that was lively (: () and I wished he said something about the sacrament of Holy Communion, instead they had someone from the Prison Ministry share about their work. I felt it took away from the solemnity of the occassion but then it was a parish mass and so had to go along with the Sunday theme.

Headed for a small family celebration at the Ramee Guestline. Spent quite some time doing something I haven’t done in a long time - blow up a lot of balloons! Must say it was a great deal of fun though We played a couple of games and danced away. So there we were eating and drinking and making merry and suddenly we were hit with a stink that was so bad we had to move to the restaurant where we prooceeded to have even more fun playing housie - 2 prizes of which I won and 2 my Mum won after which they promptly disqualified us from playing any more Too late guys!

Came home and dropped off to sleep and woke up only they next afternoon, had lunch, did a spot of clearing and fell asleep again The gang was going out in the evening, so dropped in to wish Rixon a belated Happy Birthday and went for a walk. The next week was but a few hours away
