A First for Everything

In my almost 60 years, this is the first time I'm working on the 1st of January.

There's always a first for everything. 😀

Enjoy the first day of the year, whatever you get up to. 🙏

Bananas

Image
 A few days ago while I was grocery shopping, I wondered if I should get some bananas, but I decided not to as they don't last long. That's why I only buy a banana when I fancy one in that moment.  I got red grapes instead which last a lot longer. Yesterday, I didn't see my flatmate as I was already in bed by the time she got home. This morning when I went in the kitchen, I noticed my flatmate had left a note on the kitchen top for me to have these two bananas. I immediately gobbled one up. Thank you, God, for providing my bananas through my flatmate. ♥️ Photo of the note and bananas 😊

This one was a two day Christian conference promoting a course I've actually been on. There were going to be speakers and delegates from all over the world.

(2 Timothy 1: 7) At the music gig, my colleague and I were outside the doors ...

The official start time or consensus agreement time was 7.30pm. We kept reminding fans that the concert was about to start, but most of them paid no attention because they expected it to start late i.e. cultural time. There was this last mnute rush to get them in and show them to their seats. After the concert started, we were asked to only let fans in at the end of each performance, so we had to listen out for the applause. Some latecomers couldn't understand why they had to wait. While I was at the door, I explained that it is our policy to keep them waiting so we don't disrupt the performance. Some fans came out to get drinks at the bar and wanted to get back in, but I told them they had to wait until the next entry point.  The funniest thing was when this woman came out of the concert to get her friend to go in with her. I told ...
