On Saturday ![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
breadandroses, greyhoundliz and I went to pick raspberries. In two hours, we collected over six pounds. We've frozen most of ours, and eaten a lot; tonight I'm going to cook what's left into either sauce or curd.
breadandroses's college friend A came to visit that night; I love having a guest who, when asked if we can get her anything, responds "A large glass of water, please, and a copy of Tennyson's "Ulysses" if you have such a thing."
On Sunday I sang Psalm 51 in plainchant, which, as the choir director says, I could probably do in my sleep, though I'm more used to doing it antiphonally than as a solo with congregational antiphons every three verses. We've stopped doing Morning Prayer before the 10am Eucharist, which is reasonable since it was almost always just the choir and the presider and the liturgical assistants of the day, but which is not saving any time for the singers because now we're having choir practice from 9am until 9:55, rather than just until 9:25.
Work will, I hope, become less annoying than it's been over the summer, because last week my boss got a kick in the pants to start bossing.
