aside from

Yesterday morning, I hosted an English tea party at our cafe. Four people participated, and I was grateful for their attendance.

Afterward, I took my mother to the chapel for worship.

In the afternoon, a part-time worker came to open the cafe. Two regular customers came, and I was really grateful to them.

In the evening, I went to the chapel with my mother again and attended a Bible reading session in English.

This morning, a client is scheduled to come to hand in documents. Aside from that, I plan to organize documents at my office.
