Three Good Things

1. I just got back from a profession at the Georgetown Visitation. Sr. Mary Roberta's final profession. It was BEAUTIFUL. The Sisters take solmen vows, which differ from simple perpetual vows in a number of ways ...

Anyway, it really was lovely. My favorite part of anything is the Litany of the Saints. I entertain myself on these rainy days making my own litanies for different intentions. What a dork.

2. There was a delicious lunch afterwards. I sat next to a Benedicitine priest from St. Anselms. I like talking to older people. There is just something definitely "legit" about them.

3. A beef type of thing is currently cooking in my crock pot. It smells soooo good.

Geesh all I think about is food.

First, I very much appreciate you linking my blog. Sorry it’s taken me this long to thank you for it!

It’s really, really cool that you had a chance to be at the Visitation for the Solemn Profession! The NY Vocation Director was visiting my university that week, and before I drove him to the airport for his trip back home that Friday morning, I attended the private Mass he offered for Sr. M.R. (at 5:30 am!) So I guess you could say we were there in spirit.

Hey! Yeah, prayer is like superglue, it holds us all together.
