Holy Week!

Yay! Holy Week is upon us!! Easter is less then a week away! We had a very lovely Holy Week Mass on Sunday. I love my church - there are so many lovely people there! And as an added treat we have been able to celebrate Mass in Saint Magnus Cathedral - what a place THAT is!!!
Of course all I did was fall asleep over and over again hahaha! I was surprised that I did not topple to the floor.
Erlend, my wonderful husband, drew me a hot bath with pans and kettles of hot water so that I could go to Mass without stinking of sheep. (Well...I still stank of sheep, just not as powerfully.) I wore my lovely dogwood hat to Palm Sunday and I'll wear my rose hat on Easter.
On Easter I can say, "Jesus has risen" but ... Michelle certainly has not risen - she'll be found asleep in her pew.
Coffee...I...need...coffee... I fell back asleep after my alarm went off at 3am (oops!) and Erlend woke me up at ten-till-four so I shuffled out and oggled the yows. Not a one of them was lambing. Now I am attempting to rub two brain cells together enough so that I can create dinner.
Ah, but it's worth it when I see those lambs and their wiggly little tails!

Can't blame Him for doing so, Flying Cat!! # I shall have to check this Sunday to see whether the locals are sporting new ponchos or new bolo ties for Easter. I shall probably be wearing my old black shirt and black pants as per usual, and only concidentally as per Johnny Cash.

Maybe a change of handle ( name ) might be in order to Things Go Baa in the Night?? Happy lambing..

Hello Maggie! Have we met at the Kirk?? I'm so awful with names and faces yet - but give me a couple years and I'll ken just about everyone hehe! I hope you were able to see the hat - I love to wear hats but I'm trying not to come across as vain at Mass. However...if a pretty hat causes someone smile and feel happy then that can't be vanity!

So...I traded my quiet cabin in the Alaskan woods for the howling winds of Orkney and life on a farm.
