Life is good. Summer hit with a vengeance. I have been running around like a headless chicken. We are snow bound for eightish months so when warm weather finally arrives we all go at it like fools. I have planted so much stuff it takes me an solid hour every morning to water it. I also had to replant a bunch of stuff. As our soil is mostly rocks, planting and replanting requires a pickax and a serious investment of time and energy. I think I am about done with putting plants in the ground. When the tulips die back a bit more I will plant geraniums to replace them and then I will be finished. Yeah.
I am well and truly Confirmed. Was a tremendous experience. I did not know Father Flo was going to pour half a bottle of oil over my head. Mighty messy but sure smelled good. I can now take communion with the rest of the community. Let me just say it is a way different experience than I have ever known. It is dandy, just dandy. As a new Catholic I was able to participate in the dedication of our new church. Wow. Catholics sure do things up in a big way. Service was two and a half hours long. Then we ate. I felt like I had moved in. I feel like I have come home.
My counseling goes well. Much to be said for Christian (Catholic) Counseling. Also I am losing again finally. Only five pounds but is a start. I feel invigorated in all aspects of my life. Okay have to go and mow the darn lawn. I am looking into tapping into more blogs at "Grace Place." We'll see.
Take care any who are still reading. Love Bea
