After getting excited, the inevitable dip occurs ... I met up with some of my new friends to discuss a potential Christmas geocache. The other 2 parties had come with some ideas. We eventually decided on a secular seasonal song as the theme and one group volunteered to set the caches in their local area. My job will be to try them out before the final geomob event.So on that front all is well, except I got a bit disheartened that there was no real Christmas theme (apart from possible mince pies). Somehow I'd imagined kings and donkeys, etc., making an appearance - I'm just so conventional!!!
Hubby reminded me I have to get to know them first (simple evangelistic technique - doh!).
But my own inner thoughts of doing something locally have not worked out either - I suffered a bit of a depressed fortnight and lacked any motivation for doing anything at all. I think I'm missing my holidays I haven't taken. So unfortunately guilt has set in for not achieving anything when the potential was there for the taking - still, only 3 weeks to Christmas, no really local geocacher friends to come, and I'm taking refuge in the thought that no-one would have come anyway - a true pessimist!
Instead, I'll have to think about Easter, and enjoy the secular Christmas mob and look for Christmas/Jesus opportunities when we eventually do the mob (a gathering of geocachers).
