kayre | Ending and beginning

Household stuff- still living with hubby and kid, in a house that turns 100 this year. Our lovely old Nala died in October, the last of the group of four cats we'd had for years. So, with an empty house, we had a chance to adopt a bonded pair, Lilly and Olivia. It's delightful to have younger cats, and we are having fun making friends.

Tomorrow is the second anniversary of my current job. All is still going very well. Last fall I asked pastor/boss if I could do a focused hymn sing once a year-- kind of a combination lecture, hymn sing and worship service-- and he said yes. I've been reading in my favorite period of church history, hunting for just the right topic... and then an internet search gave a thoroughly unexpected result, and I was totally hooked. I'm now embarked on a research project that feels as big as another Master's thesis and much more important. I'll tell more soon, probably.
