I learnt the outcome of my appraisal, this evening. It wasn’t too bad, rather encouraging in fact. From the sound of it, they’re going to keep me! I take appraisals and confirmations very seriously. I think it helps that I do like my job and try to pick things up as quickly as possible. And …

Enjoyed one of the best worship sessions at church. I wish every week could be like that. Got to feed the new koi (fish) in our pond. I hear they can eat out of your hand, too. Maybe I should wait for our murky algae-infested waters to clear up a little first. Got distracted during …
