Exhausted!

Well nearly three months after I should have done something about it on Friday morning the exhaust fell off the Rover. I can remember reading something in Steven Covey's The Seven Habits of Highly Effective people about the maintainence of equipment. When will I learn. Luckily whilst doing a funeral Paul from Pigeons the undertaker was able to put me in touch with a garage who would not rip me off so I will get on to that on Monday.

On cover today in Dinas Powys but waking up at 6am when it was very dark disorientated me considerably. That and the fact there was no coffee in the house meant that I was quite sluggish by the time I arrived for the 8am in St Peters even more sluggish at the 9am in St Andrew's but mercifully I was invited back for coffee to the Old Rectory between the 9am and the 10.30am so I could revive bit. Realised when I got up into the pulpit at the 10.30am that something was missing my sermon notes which were still on the pulpit in St Andrew's. In fact in some strange way the attempt to remember what I had written was better than what I had delivered in the 9am. Trying to focus to finish off my book review for my MA which I think I will try to do tomorrow. Also had to funeral visits this afternoon and going to preach in compline in a bit. So a busy day!!!
