We have a lot of wonderful feast days this week. There is supposed to be a celebration on Tuesday for the patronal feast of our local Orthodox church, which we hope to attend, and a midweek Eucharistic service, as well.

This week is a bit too busy for us to be back to a restful time, but it is busy with good things. Next week, though has nothing major planned, and only one day that I have to be out of the house, and I am looking forward to some reading and study with the kids and some rest for all of us.
