Happy Sabbath Adventure!

Be warned my sweet atheist friends of wonder, this post has lots of loving on my Lord and savior Jesus Christ. Skip it if you want.

So we went to church today and that was actually really nice. I haven't been to church in a long time, kinda been avoiding the whole scene since my last church went for the long sleep and everyone I went to church with kinda moved away. I think its easier to go to church when you're just visiting cause you know its not a commitment. Hopefully this will start me back in the habit of getting myself to church on sabbath. 

After church, the lovely family that gave me a lift took me to their place and we had "tea" cause it wasn't quite lunch time and it wasn't quite dinner time. Sadly there wasn't exactly any tea involved. Just...the word "tea". It did however involve a lovely meal and "pudding" which isn't exactly pudding. It was however a great cake like thing with jam and some kind of custard in the middle. It was really good. 


Turns out I'm an answer to prayer. This lovely couple were looking for someone to baby sit their amazingly funny son and here I am with a long history of working with children. It all works out wonderfully. I of course said yes, it would really be an answer to my prayers as well! So its possible that I could have a little working gig thing while I'm here which would be nice for a few more pounds(currency, not weight....I don't need more weight). Another plus, out their kitchen window is a gate that I'm in love with and I could stare at it all day if I baby sat for them. 

Their child, who is so funny and quick with a come back has this painting that he did. Story is that there was a penguin in the background, but the child has named the painting "the penguin is gone" since you can no longer see the penguin. I personally believe its genius and I agree with the mom that its gonna be worth millions when this kid is a professional painter.


Back to the adventure, we drove all over town and saw lots of houses that looked like little story book houses, a taxi cab that had the funniest name, and more of the strange driving habits of the citizens of Aylesbury
Anyhoo, it was a great day and I really felt that God touched the hearts of everyone at that church today. There was a wonderful speaker there today and she gave a great message about seeing God again soon. I'm so grateful to be here and I'm loving every minute of it. I thank God for being here today and all the opportunities that come with it. I'm so excited to see what happens tomorrow. 





Also, this soap is the truth. I need it in America. Like, yesterday. 

It has an amazing spicy smell and it sticks with you for hours after you use it. I usually only smell soap on me for a little bit but then I dry off. I smell this for so long. I love it. Also, it has a crown on it. 

They aren't paying me to post this soap...but they should...cause I love it.

So lovely keeping up with your blog darling! I should very much like to know the back story of how this whole trip to England came about.
I know that you're way down south but please, for me, visit Scotland while you're over there. It is my most favouritest country in the whole world and the land of my ancestors (my family still has a few castles up there! [Distant family I mean, like the Mackenzie Clan from whom I am descended have castles lol]).
Lot's of love to you wonderful woman! Looking forward to more posts xoxox

Yay! Add Journalist to your many talents. Glad you got to get around the city more and also to go to church. Hey, did you know the songs they sang?
You'll have to bring back a couple (8) of that lotion as gifts for your mother and others who would appreciate the finer things that England has to offer. Lol!

What'd you wear to church? I hope you took a picture of your hosts...

I shall eagerly await your next post...
