Guys. Juli-YEAH emailed me this yesterday: I try to plan things. I try to plan how I’ll do my hair. I say, ‘Maybe it’s an up-do for this Tuesday!’ Then I wake up. & my hair has done it’s hair thing while I’ve been sleeping. & it looks nothing like the way I planned itContinueContinue reading “Wednesday.

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”
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!!”
Lesson learned: be careful what you promise!
Soooooo. I told Kathryn she could post in my blog and then she was like, “But you need to promise me I can post whatever I want” and BECAUSE I TRUSTED HER she wrote this. Enjoy. Dear readers of Danielle the Great and Powerful, I am not Danielle. My name is Kathryn. Need some background?ContinueContinue reading “Lesson learned: be careful what you promise!”
Love doesn’t make sense to me, either
Did you ever have a conversation that was probably insignificant to everyone else involved but it stuck with you over the next few days and weeks and months, gently permeating your thoughts and research? A while back someone brought up Ephesians 5 with me. Be my guest, guess which part? You probs guessed right. TheContinueContinue reading “Love doesn’t make sense to me, either”
For unto us
I went to mass today, a windy walk away since my little church down the street is closed for the day. I sat in the glorious old building, feet propped on the kneelers (which is probably poor form, but, God and I are pretty tight so sometimes things happen). My eyes wandered to the poinsettiasContinueContinue reading “For unto us”
