C is out of town for work for a few days, so it's just A and I. I got some of that list done. I mopped and did laundry and reorganized stuff and read. But I definitely did not finish the list. In the evening, A and I watch YouTube videos together and hang out. … Continue reading Creeping Catholicism

Birthday!
My birthday was earlier this week! C made it special by cooking his delicious stuffed shells for me and getting ice cream. He also got me a gift I'm super excited about, but it will take a couple of more weeks to get here. A microscope! And petri dishes! I can't wait to get photos … Continue reading Birthday!
A Lovely Sunday
I attended OCIA today and learned about the liturgical calendar. There's more to it than I really realized. Christmas isn't just one day. There are so many celebrations of different biblical things and saints in the Catholic Church that you have some special observance rather regularly. I feel a little overwhelmed and yet happy. Sometimes … Continue reading A Lovely Sunday
Long Week

It's a sunny, happy Saturday. This week has been busy. I went to a mom group meeting with my neighbor. There were some really nice … Continue reading Long Week
Life Updates
In the next 2 weeks, I begin RCIA classes to become Catholic. I'm excited! I still have some reservations, particularly with praying to Mary and the Saints. But as I read Catholic theologians and writers, it's making more sense. I have a new doctor to go to, and the office provides transportation when you need … Continue reading Life Updates
Health, Catholic

I will be glad she has bus service. At least she will get to ride to school with … Continue reading Health, Catholic
Company, Tablecloth, Rosary
After picking up the groceries this morning, I invited one of my friends over for a morning of reality tv. It's fun to make fun of it all. We had a lovely morning, but I had to cut it short due to anxiety. I really hate it when that happens. Since then, I have been … Continue reading Company, Tablecloth, Rosary
Catholicism and Contraception
I have been exploring Catholicism for awhile now. I collect rosaries, and some Catholic teachings really appeal to me, so it makes sense to explore. One I get caught up on though, is the Catholic requirement to be "open to life" - to not use any form of contraception, and be willing to have more … Continue reading Catholicism and Contraception
