Well. I accidentally moved all of yesterday's photos of my phone so getting an image into actifit is challenging.
Now I woke up way too early so I started moving Christmas decorations for my mom into her garage. It's only Easter so not too long delayed hahahaha....
That gave me some exercise for the morning but honestly not that many steps.
Around 10am I headed out to church. 1030am service so I had plenty of time to walk. Important because there was a lot of ice on some of the sidewalks.
Arriving at church I was about ten minutes early. Walked in and was greeted by the pastor. That was nice. I would talked but he was a busy for. Headed into church and tried to find the least busy place.
Now most people think that is the back of the church where you can hide. Nope. Sit near the front.. those are the least claimed seats. Not the very front mind you.
I guessed right. I was in the second row and no one around me. The back four rows were packed though.
As for the service? I come from a Mennonite background and was in a Baptist Church. Didn't know what to expect but honestly very similar to what I'm used to.
Similar routine. Music. Announcements, music. Sermon. Music. Benediction. Finish. The major difference was singing the doxology(which I know but rarely sing) and community speech and response. Not foreign but uncommon in my church.
Other than that? Four songs. I had to smile at the written dates: 2001, 1993, 1971 ... I knew those ones although one of them was dated even for me. Then another one from 1933. I originally heard it and though....hmm.. old school. Got me thinking about traditions and generations. Then I thought that would be old even for my mom :)
The sermon? Good but unusually short. Maybe 15 minutes long? Good sermon but I'm used to considerably longer.
After church? I was trying to run away but I got Janel by friend her. Got to meet 5 people and was invited for lunch which would be been really nice... Except I was going to my nephews but lunch.
I extricated myself and walked to my nephews house. I did stop by but my nephew wasn't feeling well so I kept on walking and headed back to my mom's house.
Went home to chat with my mom. I was thinking it's time for "the talk" that she has to move out of her current home in order to protect herself from a care home.
We decided if she switched houses with her grandson everyone wins. So I got to walk back there and have a discussion with them about if they want to upgrade to a bigger newer house.
Lots of walking back and forth which means...
... I hit my 5k goal :)
