life safari 2008d

Wow, it has been a while since I've had or taken the time to blog. I seem to lose track of time.

It has been a period of trying to get back on a schedule after the Easter Celebration. What a wonderful and beautiful Mass we had at Easter Vigil (Sat. 3/22/08).
During that time I was having some back problems (too much weight) and not eager to get out of bed and start the day.

I am wondering what the summer will bring as far as scheduling at work. I may not be able to have Thursdays off after my RCIA program is over. I will miss the classes and people but will be very happy to be in full Communion with the Church on May 4th (Sunday 11:00 AM Mass). I have been very ready for the opportunity to exercise the Sacrament of Reconciliation and the Sacrament of the Holy Eucharist. I have been holding my breath for months, it seems. I am very excited to be close to being able to participate fully as a Catholic.

On the job front, I feel uninspired and a bit bored lately. I think I am in need of a real vacation !
Frank and I are going to France and Italy in Oct. or Nov. 2008. Time seems to be passing by so quickly - it will be vacation time before I know it. We must get our plans ironed out.

Well, my back is beginning to ache. I guess it's time for the heating pad. I am very disappointed that basketball is taking so much air-time on television. But,

I am Grateful and Thankful...

for the joy of living in Precious' domain
God's Grace and patience
to be sober, clean and smoke-free
tomorrow is Friday !
to be alive and well
for the folks that I love being alive and well
Spring break being over soon and the church schedule going back to normal (during the week)
for LOVE
coffee with milk and honey

Good Night
