I went to Chicago and stuff
Remember how I was going to be recreating and stuff? I did. I went to IL and Chicago and saw friends and fam. Want to see about ten pictures with limited amounts of text? Why, your wish is my command! We got too late to the grocery store, though. So we relied on our reservesContinue reading "I went to Chicago and stuff"
5 things to say to people who wear the wrong things to mass
This was kind of inspired by a post I saw on the good ol' FB. The post was like, "Ways to improve your etiquette at mass--you've probably never heard of these!!11!!" Now, I don't know that I'm really a click-bait-y type of girl, but I am kind of interested in improving my life, and IContinue reading "5 things to say to people who wear the wrong things to mass"
Recreation time
I went to mass last week and we sang the song about the morning that has broken, like the first morning, and we praised God for the "recreation of the new day." Recreation is an interesting word. Because it mostly conjures up images of play-time. The beach and camping and what not. Or, maybe not.Continue reading "Recreation time"
Things I find interesting!! Discuss, discuss, discuss!
HALLO. So. Sometimes I come across things that stretch me, but maybe there doesn't seem to be enough meat to include in a blog post. BUT. What if I just include several points? And then you can comment on every one, if wanted, or just one. Or whatever. It's your internet, too. Drum-roll! Trumpets! MayContinue reading "Things I find interesting!! Discuss, discuss, discuss!"
Le update
Once I went to this church-talk by this dewd I know who is really cool and also happens to be in seminarian for bonus-cool points. He was telling us some stories about his life, and one was that he went to this high-security prison to minister to the inmates and what not. Anyway, this oneContinue reading "Le update"
Someone asked me what I wanted
That one friend asked me what I wanted and I said I didn't know and he got awful fired up, "OH MY GOSH," he said, with his exasperated-voice, "Go and figure out what you want." So...I started. I want time for prayer. I want time in nature. I want slow days and beautiful, unwinding adventure.Continue reading "Someone asked me what I wanted"
What I Wore Wednesday
It has officially been forever since I have done one of these. But!! Over the weekend I was in a parade with a friend's place-of-employment, and a reader (hello, reader!!!) called out to me from the sidewalk, "Helloooo! What did you wear on Wednesday?" ISN'T THAT CRAZY? So, yes. Here we go again. She wasContinue reading "What I Wore Wednesday"
Soooo, what’ve we been up to in here??
Why, helloooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo little neglected corner of the internet! Want to know what's been hip-hop-happening for me? Well...SURE. I can fill you in. I can tell you about my life. Please, please, pull up a virtual-chair. -1- I'm planning a trip to see the Pope when he visits Philadelphia this fall. WOO HOOOOOO. Planning these thingsContinue reading "Soooo, what’ve we been up to in here??"
May is magical. It is. You cannot convince me otherwise.
So, I mean, we've been all over the map weather-wise, and I'm not too keen on that life. But, still...May, you guys. It's crazy. Do you remember winter?? I do. We had days upon days upon weeks of negative temps. And everything was covered in ice and snow. Everything. And now we have...flowers. HOW. YouContinue reading "May is magical. It is. You cannot convince me otherwise."
