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”

Mind-blowing St. Max reflection, part dos
Three words. I first read these on the information sent from my New Year’s Retreat. And I was like, “YES.” From our friend St. Max himself, guys, “Love alone creates.” That’s the sound of my brain exploding once again. I love this quote.

Fabric-store fix to ease the winter pain
So, you can all hate me now, but I’ve never seen the movie “Groundhog Day.” I did start watching it once many years ago but, everyone knows movie-watching is nowhere near my favorite pastime and when he dropped the toaster in the bathtub I was like, “Yeah, I’m not into this” so I shut theContinueContinue reading “Fabric-store fix to ease the winter pain”

My friends my friends my friends, It’s not that I haven’t been thinking of you.

If you were to be like, “So, what do you love about the Camino?” …which you might not even be asking, but it’s not like I can read minds and I’m just typing thoughts anyway, I would probably tell you what I have told others before you. And that is that: I feel like theContinueContinue reading “Sometimes it helps me to type things out”
Happy Colonoscopy!
Soooo one of my super awesome coworkers is going in for the party that is a medical procedure. Woo hoo. I made said-coworker this card, utilizing e-card magic and my own sense of humor. I expect a call from Hallmark any day now.
Nell goes to a BABY SHOWER
Hi. Where have I been??? Mostly: crazy. 🙂 Count-down to Spain: 8 days. Woot. Anyway, I had a baby shower last weekend. Now, baby showers are finicky business. I like to bring useful, cute things…but it’s hard to know what to bring. Here’s what I did for this one: hats, baby hats. That and IContinueContinue reading “Nell goes to a BABY SHOWER”
Paper dolls–NOW IN TECHNICOLOR!
Remember when I gave you a paper doll to color? You don’t need to anymore. My mom made the best one. You can just download hers and play away! I’m just sad that I won’t look this cute in real life. 🙂 I mean, LOOK at those colors!
Packing for Spain. Now with BONUS Paper doll!
We leave soon. 🙂 So soon. Some helpful people will say things like, “Let me know if I can help you pack, OK?” Thing is, on the Camino the goal is the least amount of weight you can carry.
