Whoa Nelly! This one is long. Long and full of stuffs. Sheesh. Take it in stride. Pop some popcorn, get a cold drank, and wait for a long and uneventful afternoon. Or just wait for a fluffy post, I guess. If that’s what floats your boat. I’ve been mulling over things in my mind, readingContinueContinue reading “Talk to me about: being single”

What I Wore Wednesday
I wore cute shoes too, I promise, the ones with the bows on the toes like Snow White. But, this was after a lunch time excursion, so no heels at the moment for me. Oh would ya look at that: I’m wearing the exact same skirt I wore last time I posted something like this.ContinueContinue reading “What I Wore Wednesday”
My personal 15 Triduum favorites
This year I visited with friends and parted with, “Merry Triduum!” because I wasn’t sure of the correct greeting. But then a different friend wished me an “Epic Triduum” which fits better, doesn’t it? I didn’t take pictures of the events on Friday or Saturday. Sometimes it’s just better to be present than to rushContinueContinue reading “My personal 15 Triduum favorites”
Holy week time
It could be that maybe I didn’t transition well into talking and what not, but there are so many things that need to be done–and all of them good and worthy things, you know? In the next few days I need to… call the vet for the guinea pig (don’t worry, routine things) make butterContinueContinue reading “Holy week time”
St. Joseph is the man
I was going to write a blog post yesterday. March 19, Feast of St. Joseph. I had it outlined in my head, ready to roll. And then when I started my car the RPM gauge started jumping around/ the vehicle was accelerating without my assistance/ weird noises and I made the decision to leave myContinueContinue reading “St. Joseph is the man”

Love and priests and the look of love
I’ve written about priests before, I know and I know, but I’m here to briefly do it again. By an oversight on my part I went to mass twice on Monday–once by blessed force-of-habit at noon time, and then again in the evening because some dear folks asked me to lead Prayers of the FaithfulContinueContinue reading “Love and priests and the look of love”
Seven Quick Takes this Friday eve!
— 1 — Have you ever thought about doing something for a few weeks, but then, in a fit of adrenaline actually bit the bullet then sat back and thought, “Did I really just do that?” So. As of last night, I have a ticket to Colorado the first week of April. For a silentContinueContinue reading “Seven Quick Takes this Friday eve!”
Reflection on St. Max which has been blowing my mind since December
Really, it has. I’m sure you all remember Brother Thomas: Right? I see this kid on the New Year’s Retreat. This year I was supposed to be solemnly in line for confession, but the lines were long and our eyes kept meeting and he was making weird faces at me until finally I was like,ContinueContinue reading “Reflection on St. Max which has been blowing my mind since December”
Got my throat blessed!
Here’s a brief rundown: Monday morning, iced-over car, lingering sniffles, few minutes late for work etc. etc. etc. Blech. And then I got to work and I realized what day it was, so I posted on Christine’s wall, “It’s your favorite feast day! The feast of St. Blaise!” Smile. This is one of those weirdContinueContinue reading “Got my throat blessed!”
