I feel a little more uplifted but still have a fair amount of inner turmoil residing. I like to think the Requip is starting to work, I was able to wake up at 7am today and felt rather refreshed. However, my legs right now are the definition of leg pain, and thus are lathered [...]

 I am a Catholic SAHM to two kids and three babies in Heaven. I like to write about Catholicism, homemaking, being a Mom, living with three mental disorders, and the like. (more?)

Moneybags has a story up about how Protestant numbers are down, but Catholics are steady. Apparently the University of Chicago (a nondenominational institute) did this survey in 2004. Because the story Moneybags cited was put out by the Catholic News Agency (even though Reuters broke it), I know if I were to try and [...] I have a lot of pictures and a lot of thoughts to post about the day trip to Earthquake Lake. For those unfamiliar, Earthquake Lake (or, Quake Lake) was formed in 1959, when a magnitude 7.5 earthquake hit the Madison Canyon in Big Sky Country. It caused a mountainside to slide into the valley. [...] The Immaculate Heart of Mary. I hold her responsible for my Catholicism. She came after me (twice) when I was atheistic. She’s very persistent. (Catholic Fire has a very nice post about the Immaculate Heart, go check it out!) I reckon that a topic like clutter doesn’t have much “meat” for a Cathblog. At least, I sometimes think so. But looking around me, I have a lot of clutter. I’m a daughter of a pile-maker: my mom has piles of Stuff to Sort at home. I do the same thing. Except I never [...] I received more information on Third Orders in the mail: the Pauline Cooperators and I also received information from the Handmaids of the Sacred Heart (not a third order). So far, there are orders that are out (Passionists, Dominicans), orders that are looking like they’re out (Carmelites :-O ), and I’m still waiting on [...] Saint Gabriel of Our Lady of Sorrows was born March 1, 1838 in Assisi. He was the eleventh of thirteen children of the successful lawyer Sante Possenti and his wife Agnes Frisciotti Possenti. At his baptism, he was named Francis (or Francesco) Possenti after Saint Francis of Assisi. The family was wealthy, and young [...] About helping with religious education: I heard back from the RE coordinator this morning, and she had asked if I would be interested in teaching either pre-school or kindergarten for the fall. I ended up volunteering for pre-school, and so now her and I are in the process of getting together to go over [...] After Mass on Sunday, I called home. I mentioned the Deacon that is to be ordained next Tuesday, which apparently opened up a nice little river of a-C. Growing up, “go forth and multiply” was tossed around when referring to those damn Catholics and their no artificial birth control means. Usually, it was “God [...] My parish has been putting little notices about a need for religious education (aka RE) teachers for the fall. I’d been contemplating getting a hold of the RE coordinator about this. I really like kids, and I like to think they like me as well. I’ve spent more than my required duty baby-sitting kidlets [...] |
