A Day of Play…in May.

Self-promote? Who? Me? On my own blog? Never. Cough. But! In YOUR interest, here’s something really, really cool which you should think about: Play in a Day. What, what, what is this insanity, you ask? Basically, I’ve invited some of the most disgustingly-talented people I know to gather. I’m just going to throw them togetherContinueContinue reading “A Day of Play…in May.”

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”

Getting back in the swingity swing

Hey. Should I have posted something yesterday? Of course. But, instead, we were delayed. We were making Easter eggs, you see. And it was beautiful: lots of people, lots of dye, lots of fire hazards because: no school like the old school. And now, here were are, in Holy Week, my favorite week. There areContinueContinue reading “Getting back in the swingity swing”

That one time St. Joseph broke it down for me

So, I started writing this on the feast of St. Joseph, but it ended up being too long. So, I’ve split it into a few posts to avoid TL;DR. Enjoy. The theme of this post is mustard yellow. Mustard yellow is different from the bright, lemon yellow or the straight Crayola variety; mustard yellow isContinueContinue reading “That one time St. Joseph broke it down for me”

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”

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!”

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. Please, humor me for the next three months, ponder this and thenContinueContinue reading “Mind-blowing St. Max reflection, part dos”

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!”

Seven quick takes BECAUSE IT’S FRIDAY!!

— 1 — There’s never a convenient time to loss your voice, right? Especially a week of dance lessons, though! Yesterday was a dance lesson/ theology chat with some of the young’un’s at a local Univeristy. They look so good, right?? Fun fact: I’m, like, so old. I have this professional schedule that doesn’t usuallyContinueContinue reading “Seven quick takes BECAUSE IT’S FRIDAY!!”
