Walking really fast in a cape.
What if this was you know who in you know where? I know!
If he shows up in my dreams then it's all your guys fault!!
Snow--fortunately it hasn't been cold enough for it to stick, just miserable to go out in..no yard work that's for sure, and no going out on the motorcycle..although nice to stay home curled up by the fireplace with a glass of wine and a nice trashy novel :)
Signs of Spring: Birds chirping, snow melting, Fr. J outside, greeting those arriving for 5pm Mass, St. A students selling chocolate to those leaving 5 pm Mass.

When in disgrace with fortune and men's eyes,
I all alone beweep my outcast state,
And trouble deaf Heaven with my bootless cries,
And look upon myself, and curse my fate,
Wishing me like to one more rich in hope,
Featur'd like him, like him with friends possess'd,
Desiring this man's art, and that man's scope,
With what I most enjoy contented least:
Yet in these thoughts myself almost despising,
Haply I think on thee,--and then my state
(Like to the lark at break of day arising
From sullen earth) sings hymns at heaven's gate;
For thy sweet love remember'd such wealth brings
That then I scorn to change my state with kings'. - Sonnet 29
O Mary conceived without sin, pray for us who have recourse to you and for those who do not, especially the enemies of the Church and those recommended to you.
Holy Name of Jesus
Arise O Lord and let your enemies be scattered, and let those that hate you flee before you!"
Welcome to the original Abbey-Roads!
What a dump!

Show us your face and we shall be saved. "Each soul is the object of My special love. That is why I am so grateful to those who are resourceful and bringing back sinners to Me. Keep this in mind then. I gave My life for them in the most atrocious torture, for these poor beloved ones. A humble repentance, and they are already on My heart. So speak gently to them. Speak with tenderness. A brusque remark could drive them farther away." - He and I
