So, I am meant to be writing my MA as fast as ever I can, along with doing whatever work needs doing. So how did I end up here instead? Well, I'm also writing a sermon for tomorrow.

The sermon is about the parable of the lost sheep. I find that after reading the passage through, I need to let it percolate for a little while to see what associations it brings up. Hmmm... sheep, that brings me onto thinking about wool and then knitting. Before I know it, I'm starting to think about all the things I'm going to knit as soon as I finish off this MA writing. Hang on, aren't the winter olympics in 2010? Yes they are. Oh good, that means a knitalong for the Knitting Winter Olympics. What shall I make?

It is possible that I need an MA-along instead. I could post the file sizes of the chapters each day, to give you an idea of how it is going.

Anyway, I think I have the theme for the sermon, so I'll make some notes before evening prayer (19 minutes to go - better be quick)
