Dearest Diary,
It was quite difficult to awaken this morning and as a result I found myself with no place to be seated at the weekly services. There were indeed a great many parishioners today. I instead was resigned to listen from outside the doors and with great difficulty over the conversation of the children close by. Fortunately, the afternoon meal was another occasion for discussion, oft more meaningful than the clergy are sometimes apt to provide. I mean no disrespect to those of that profession, but rather I mean to declare how intelligent I find my father to be on matters of the Bible.
Again I found myself in the company of good books for the afternoon and with the leisure to tend to matters around the home. As for the evening, we were invited to partake in the meal's final course at the home of the eldest son of my father. Engaging conversation and laughter ensued.
The week ahead promises much activity and for that I shall insist on being well-rested. I shall return to you on the morrow.
