So for the last couple of years, we've been pretty good about giving up something for Lent. Two years ago, we gave up fast food and last year, we gave up eating out altogether. And not to say that we haven't had a slip here and a slip there, but we've done ok, and then this year came along. This year we gave up booze. I say "gave" because... well... we lasted four days. Sigh. Wine = good. Instead we're going back to giving up fast food (which was surprisingly difficult, if I recall accurately) and trying to take a more pro-active approach. We've decided to try and do one house-keeping thing every day for the next forty. We may clean something or sort something or put something away. I guess we'll see how it goes!
On another note, Kathleen's vacation requests have been approved this week, which means that she will be joining John and Da Camera in England and Scotland in July and August. And SHE IS EXCITED. Highlights of the trip will include singing Evensong and concerts in some of the most beautiful cathedrals in the world, like Beverley Minster and Yorkshire. Though not technically a honeymoon, it will be a lovely way to celebrate our newlyweddishness!
