When Church Goes Overtime...

Usually when church goes overtime all you might get are bored looks, yawns, repeated glancing at wrists and pointed staring.

Unfortunately for me, church went overtime this week - outside. And all I got was a major sunburn! I'd forgotten (as usual) the sunscreen. I'd forgotten that my winter-pale skin wasn't toughened up against the elements. I'd forgotten that one doesn't usually wear shorts and a swimming costume to church, nor does one usually spend from 9:30 to 2pm doing church! However, I was deeply into some reading matter, and enjoying occasional breaks to watch the view, the birds, the dogs, my son. Time passed.

So here I am, all sorry for myself, with a "white outfit" under my clothes, the rest somewhat red and definitely sore.

But I did learn a lot in church this week! :)
