20181115 – Friday – Women @ Well, and “ladies in black.”

20181115 – Friday – Women @ Well at Hyde Park and “ladies in black” at Mt Barker.

I simply LOVE our little group of Women at Hyde Park.

Today, Collleen Roberts was our leader and the subject, the Woman caught in adultery, or as Colleen labeled in the “young, scared girl” caught in adultery.

Being women, we try to look at the event or happening in its context, and FEEL as that young girl would have felt, and then wonder at the wisdom of Jesus in answering what was obviously a “set up” by the Scribes and Pharisees. 

Colleen didn’t disappoint, she had researched her material very thoroughly and we all discussed and overlapped as women tend to do in such discussions.

Then we discussed what we would do next year, because his was he last class. 

In the end we decided that we would all choose a “subject, dear to our hearts,” for the next series of studies.

I am set down on Feb 15th to do the study of my choice, “animals of the Bible.”  For this I will completely plagiarise Jim Dillingham’s studies that so intrigued me about “Animals of the Bible.”

Rosalie has chosen to talk about a “relationship if the Bible,” but so far hasn’t got any particular “relationship” in mind.

Lainie hasn’t made up her mind yet, but I am sure we will all come up with some interesting studies.

Every session we realise that what we talk about could not be talked about by any of the men in the ecclesias, because they simply don’t think as we do, being males.

I am sure they would like to be “flies on the wall” at our sessions, because they are simply wonderful and we come up with some amazing stuff.

After the session we all sat around a table for lunch, and I was pretty “good,” I ate salad and curried egg, and meat and only one, dare I say it (Darren) a slice of watermelon.

(Well, Darren, would you rather I didn’t tell you??)

I actually had some sausage rolls as well, BUT minus the carbohydrates in the pastry that I peeled off before I ate the middle.

And I brought my breakfast, of eggs and salad and ate it on the way up in the car. So I feel I was pretty well on target today.

Darren tells me he is cooking dinner for everyone on Saturday night, but that I am to bring my own prepared food for Sunday.

Anyway, in the afternoon I went up to Mt Barker to the Wallis theatre to watch “ladies in black” Jane Samwell has recommending that I see.

It is on at 3.30 pm this afternoon, so I have time to write up my diary, and send form before I go in.

I would like to put up photos of our little group at Hyde Park, but the girls don’t want their faces up on the net. So can’t do that. Sorry.

And Darren, notice that I didn’t buy an ice cream at the candy bar, either. 

I am really serious about this “new way of living” but every now and then I do fall off the wagon. But it is not crack that I am having, it is pretty good food. 

So, don’t bite my head off when I see you on the weekend, please!

Now for “new way of living” (Darren doesn’t like the word diet.)

Fay: Sent form at 1.30 pm Thursday 15th Nov 2018.

3.12 pm at 15.3 sugar level

10 Lantus

10 Novarapid.

Lunch was just half that plate of salad I showed you.

Not feeling hungry.

Will have dinner a bit later on.

Home now at 3.15 for rest in bed.

When I get hungry I will eat.

Darren: Good sleep?

Fay: haven’t been sleeping! Have been trying on dresses.

Didn’t wan to wear new dress because it is still too tight.

BUT the only other dress I wanted to wear is too low in the bust. 

So didn’t choose that.

What I waned to wear was a pear of white trousers, but can’t find them anywhere. Nor can I find a pair of black tights.  So annoying!

(I must remember that so I can fill in the “annoyed” field in the daily form!!).

So will have to wear the NEW dress.

I would love to have worn it when I had lost a lot more weight!!

Ah well, so bi it.

We must have a photo taken together like we did last time we were at Victor together.

I’m just cooking some steak, but don’t feel like eating anything else.

Don’t know why?

I couldn’t finish the salad at lunch this morning.

Am looking forward to time I can get rid of most of my present wardrobe and get new stuff.

I still find it weird looking into the mirror and seeing WHITE hair.

I feel like “the man on the throne,” with hair, “white like wool.”

So how has your day been?

Are you in Darwin at moment.

Oh, of course not, your must be on your way to Adelaide!

NOW I am going to bed.

1 piece of steak and small tomato.

Darren; Just landed in Adelaide.

And good job, regarding your neck being thinner and able to wear old necklace.

Fay: Yes, My necked and shoulders are thinker, and I think I look younger.

BUT from the bust downwards still so FAT!!

Who is picking you up?

Mum or Dad?

Darren: Yep, I’m making breakfast.

Fay: Make some for me.

What are you having.

Do you have to prep? How do you manage at someone else’s place?

Are u going to cook for me Saturday and Sunday?

Should I bring ALL my own food?

Is Ali going to be cooking “kosher” while you are there?

Weight is 95 kg this morning!  

Looks like I have started on the downward trend AT LAST.

Darren: lol, way to many questions for the morning.

I will e cooking for everyone Saturday night.

Bring your own prepared food for Sunday.

Fay: Thanks, I will bring own for Sunday.

I know you want me to think only of sugar levels but I am so HAPPY to be starting down to next level in weight.
