AveMariaPurissima Posted February 23, 2014 Share Posted February 23, 2014 I have to admit, I'm not keeping up well enough with either situation to really know... TPBM is trying to get in lots of homemade desserts before Lent starts! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheresaThoma Posted February 24, 2014 Share Posted February 24, 2014 Well we did convince our one housemate to make banana bread.... so sorta? TPBM is very happy that they have convinced the group they pray with to chant LOTH Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lil'Monster Posted February 24, 2014 Share Posted February 24, 2014 Didn't happened TPBM is having hiccups while they are reading this post. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChristinaTherese Posted February 24, 2014 Share Posted February 24, 2014 Nope. But I would love to chant the LotH. TPBM has been nervous about writing to a religious community for the first time about discernment. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SilentJoy Posted February 24, 2014 Share Posted February 24, 2014 Ha ha ha...funny story...I'm a convert and I'd wanted to be a nun for a while but had no idea how to go about it. At my Confirmation interview, my priest asked me if I'd thought of being a nun. I said, "Yes!" and he said, "Great! I'll get you in touch with a Vocations Director, you'll LOVE her." Then, three months later, I hadn't heard anything so I went back to his office, and he said "OH you want to be a nun? That's wonderful! I'll get you in touch with a Vocations Director, you'll LOVE her." Then, several weeks after that, he gave me the number!! So I freaked out a little for a month or two, even visited a psychologist to be sure there wasn't anything majorly wrong with me that might be an impediment to religious life, and finally I cradled the phone in my sweaty little hand and actually dialed all the numbers!! "This is Ron," said the guy on the other end. "Sorry, wrong number." So my priest asked if I'd ever called the Vocations Director, and I said, "Yes, but it was Ron," and he said, "RON? Who's Ron? Maybe I gave you the number to a bar and grill?" I did eventually get the correct number, and I really, really, really didn't like the place he was trying to send me, but its the thought that counts. After that, I realized that you can just write to whatever community you like, you don't have to go through a priest or Vocations person. The Person Below Me is laughing at me right now.

ChristinaTherese Posted February 24, 2014 Share Posted February 24, 2014 (edited) Oh yeah! TPBM doesn't think I'm crazy to want to go and pray the Rosary in the nearby cemetery. Edited February 24, 2014 by Christina Thérèse Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheresaThoma Posted February 25, 2014 Share Posted February 25, 2014 That actually sounds like a good idea.... TPBM is happy that a conflict has been resolved in their life. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tab'le De'Bah-Rye Posted February 25, 2014 Share Posted February 25, 2014 Well hopefully it never raises it's ugly head again and stays in hell so yes. Talking about some conflict i have had with a couple of sins. TPBM enjoys a little coconut water and believes the natural world is very good.

AveMariaPurissima Posted February 25, 2014 Share Posted February 25, 2014 I've never had it...I've been wanting to try a more "natural" approach, though. TPBM got a hair cut today. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Byzantine Posted February 26, 2014 Author Share Posted February 26, 2014 Haircut was Monday. TPBM can read an alphabet other than this one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChristinaTherese Posted February 26, 2014 Share Posted February 26, 2014 Well, I wrote a word down in Greek last night, because we had a theologian giving a talk on marriage (it was really good, and I think I love exegesis) and I was taking notes and she was talking about the word for submission in Ephesians 5. So I guess I can write a little bit of Greek. But I'm not good with the lowercase letters, so I don't know. And I don't know all the capitals either. So it really depends. TPBM has spring fever.

TheresaThoma Posted February 27, 2014 Share Posted February 27, 2014 YES, and all we have right now is snow! TPBM is happy to find there is Latin Mass offered near them Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChristinaTherese Posted February 27, 2014 Share Posted February 27, 2014 It's at the wrong times though.... I like having Mass at 8:00 AM every day I go. (It's been rough this school year because it's a 15-25 minute walk to get there and I have a class at 9 AM on the days that daily Mass is offered. But I can't drive anywhere else, because I have no car.) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
