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! MayContinueContinue reading “Things I find interesting!! Discuss, discuss, discuss!”

On renewing my passport
I need to renew my passport, so I am, because I believe in traveling. I filled out the form and went to get my picture taken at an official place (an urban Walgreens which, upon cross-examination, didn’t carry the hair products I was looking for…mostly the aisle was full of products for thicker, textured hairsContinueContinue reading “On renewing my passport”
Easter-y things. <3
Father Pio called me. ❤ And he wished me, “…many, many, life-changing, heart-expanding Easter graces." Isn’t that lovely? And, so was Easter. Surprises and friends and prayer times. The best times. My favorite thing is the Easter Vigil. And it isn’t everyone’s favorite thing, but it is my favorite thing. Because I love listening toContinueContinue reading “Easter-y things. <3”
Canticle of two youths and the OPPOSITE of a fiery furnace
I believe in being honest with God because, really, if you’re not honest with Him, who can you be honest with? And on Monday or Tuesday I honestly said, “God, how about some snail mail?” And God and Juli-YEAH and the United States Postal Service delivered. Snail mail from Juli-YEAH AW YISS. So, to provideContinueContinue reading “Canticle of two youths and the OPPOSITE of a fiery furnace”
Marks in all shades
I’ve been reading a few things online about those multiple shades of grey (but not many things, because as a child I learned about “be careful, little eyes, what you see,” and, even though I wasn’t aware of the internet then, I’m aware of it now, and the truth of the phrase still remains.) IContinueContinue reading “Marks in all shades”
“On Tuesday…”
For reasons of shared-pastor, our priest doesn’t celebrate mass at my small-church on Tuesdays. Usually a substitute priest will celebrate instead, or a deacon, or this one guy who is in the diaconate program. If all else fails, though, I’m asked to cover in a communion service featuring the day’s readings, the already-consecrated Eucharist, andContinueContinue reading ““On Tuesday…””
Blots of thoughts from Marytown and Detroit. A fusion of thoughts!
I went on retreat. You know I did, and I know you know I did. Honestly, team, I’m ready to burst back into life and go to the library and check out books and read them all and learn a bunch of things (and get behind at laundry) and go to the fabric store andContinueContinue reading “Blots of thoughts from Marytown and Detroit.

But, even if He does not…
Every day I’ve been praying my Christmas novena, repeating the words the fifteen times I’m supposed to. I pray it in the kitchen or in church or in bed, on my fingers or my rosary or my bracelet’s beads, praying about the “hour and moment at which the Son of God was born,” and thatContinueContinue reading “But, even if He does not…”
