Full day Sunday...How was your weekend?

Philippines
March 18, 2013 10:17am CST
Yesterday was one of the busiest if not my busiest Sunday ever! Woke up at 5 am, made some finishing touches for a Sunday School lesson, rushed to catch the teachers' devotional time, taught to toddlers, man the registration for a luncheon event for the following Sunday, talked to people, lunch meeting with a friend, took a quick back massage, went back to church to attend worship gathering, talked to people again...back home, talked and counselled with more people on the phone until 11 pm. What a day! But it was fun! I missed a day on myLot though. How about you, how was your weekend?

I thought Sunday is a rest day , even God rested in the 7th day but me can't ! Have so many things to do like going out to buy supplies , arranging things and so many stuff to attend in the house. Sometimes i wish that God should have made 2 Sundays.

. Oh, it is a rest day. It's just us people who make it not because we always think the days are not trough hot accomplish our tasks. God never wanted us to be so workaholic. On Sundays we should spend it with Him.

. Indeed, Sunday should be spent for our family and for worship.

Rest is sometimes overrated! :) Rest sometimes means that we are free from 'other' things so that we could get other things done, especially those unusual things :) But for me, I consider Sunday a rest day because it is the day I get to worship the Lord while I do the more important things in this life, time with family, friends, ministry and time alone :)

. Oh, I envy you. My husband still goes to work on Sunday. I can only spend time with him in the evening. Good for you for having a great day with your husband.

. I do my best to make it a quality time. He also does the same. I am glad he also knows that we need to enjoy what little time is left for us in a day.

I sure hope you could work on it, Lea! But what's more important to have been able to spend quality time with your husband. When you are together, just enjoy it :) Very nice Sunday time with the family, bluebutterfly!

Hmmm... my weekend =) Saturday I ran a Shamrock Shuffle 10K with friends and then an additional 7 miles later. Sunday I watched the LA marathon and ran 15 miles on my treadmill while watching it, did up corned beef, cabbage, potatoes onions and carrots in the crockpot and hung out with my family. I remember all the busy-ness of church activities, I mostly just help friends occasionally with events now.

. Wow that is a very productive Sunday. You are one busy woman. I never imagined you do a lot in a day especially Sunday. But I'm happy because you we're still able to pamper yourself like having a back massage and spent time with a friend. My Sunday was not as buy as before but in my opinion I was busy too. I didn't wake up early though because I'm practically awake every now and then. Spent time with baby Zoe, did some work for school only the one I can do,not too much. Some colleagues/friends had a sleep over. I watched a movie with them. We helped my mom prepare macaroni salad because the following day is Zoe's first month. We celebrated. Had cake and some food for the visitors ... The other teachers/colleagues. It was a fun Sunday!

. Thank you Celle. Indeed busy. I'm getting the hang of it. Setting aside other things and just doing important work because most of my time is spent with Zoe. Soon I will be a full time working mom so I am practicing how to prioritize my tasks at home at work. . Her second month is on April 18th. You're a week early. . Thanks!

We both have a busiest sunday every sunday.. I also wake up at 5:30 in the morning especially if we need to sing as choir at the church. I am catholic and servant in our parish. As I am a church worker I must do extra things among the extra with more strength to comply my schedule on the said day. Really tiring BUT I ll do all of these happily! :)

Oh we are on the same page! Except that I am a Christian :) serving in the church is tiring, but it always gives us the delight to be of service and to glorify the Lord in however small means of worship we can do for His people! The Lord sees through our hearts, not in our activities for Him! So let's continue to work as for His glory and not for our own works nor for our own glory! :) God bless you!

Our weekends are either very busy, or very quite. Sometimes we plan family outings and other times we stay home and just enjoy each other, or clean the house. Sometimes we will catch a movie, but there is always something we are doing.

Yes we love to spend time together often.

Yes, this is the kind of family life we must have if we have to manage the house and the family :) Sundays are great times for the family to bond by doing things altogether! Great Sundays ahead of you!

Sounds like you did have a busy sunday. My weekend was fun my boyfriend and I went on a mini vacation and stayed in a hotel for 2 days and did some gambling at a casino and just enjoyed ourselves. It was nice even though it was short. It was sad when Sunday rolled around and we had to come home though. Weekends go by too fast when your having fun. Hope you have a good week.

Oh I know what you mean. Sometimes the traffic is a killer but having to spend the time with loved ones makes it all worthwhile!

I had a bit of a busy Sunday. It was St. Patrick's day, so I went to the grocery for some last minute grocery shopping at about 9am. Then fixed some breakfast and helped my mom in law cook the beef. While the beef is slow cooking, I baked some chocolate chip cookies. By 5pm, my in laws and niece and nephew were here. By 8pm, I was not feeling well so I went straight to bed, took some aspirin and airborne. I am still a bit feeling sick today so I am taking it easy.

. How do you celebrate St Patrick's Day. Do you really have to wear something green? Oh my, you baked chocolate chip cookies? I loved that. Take plenty of water and rest.
