May and all that

The children are back to school this week, mostly happy. We had a relaxed sort of holiday at home, some movies, some friends over, a sleep over at Anton's for Zach, that sort of thing. Katarina is back into Stage Challenge practises with the performance next Monday in the Town Hall.
Temperatures have plummeted, no actual frosty frosts yet but snow on the hills over the weekend which meant cancelled soccer games for Hannah and Zachary. At least the house is warmer with the insulation we put in and the heat pump is great!
I have finished recording and transcribing worship services and will make a start on the analysis this week; this is the second phase of my thesis, so the end is in sight! (yay!)
