We came back Monday from our last (unless some unexpected Christmas thing
pops up) gem show of the season, It was very successful and yielded us some
custom work, as is usual for this particular show. I always enjoy this one
as it is a change from our usual circuit and also gives us a chance to see
my daughter and at least some (in this case two) of the grandkids.
My wee parish is still in flux, looking for a place to worship and in talks
with a bishop (who has taken our case to his Patriarch). I went to the
local ROCOR parish twice but after my second visit will not be doing THAT
again! I think he thought he was being explanatory but I found him
downright rude. Also, his table manners are execrable.
And it's basketball season again! Yay!
