Monday of the Fifth Week of Lent: 6:37 AM


 Waiting for my student in Anhui to start up a Tencent Meeting.

The three of us got haircuts yesterday.

Still waiting. But for another thing.

Today: some online classes.  Maybe talk to a fellow in the Middle East.

5th Sunday of Lent: 11:00 AM Mass


 The 3rd Scrutiny.

My life flashed before me in my mind.

What’s the choice?  The way of the spirit or the way of death.

Wheat Kings Game




 Could be the last game of the year.  The Wheatiex playoff games will be in Virden on account the Royal Manitoba Winter Fair being held at the Keystone.

Princess Auto


 Where I’m working today.

Saturday of the Fourth Week of Lent: 6:08 AM


 I got a busy day: two classes, a seven hour shift, a hockey game to attend, and an appointment with a neighbor.  And all my daily requirements such as making a blog entry.

Still reeling from the death of Chuck.

Friday Mass


 What’s with the shroud?  I suppose I will find out.

I did the stations of the cross.

Downtown Brandon


 Not very attractive, is it?

Puddles



 The temperatures are above zero which is nice, but there are puddles, aka lakes, everywhere which make ambulating a bit of a chore.

Chuck Norris RIP


 I learned from my son that Chuck Norris had died.

I first had to confirm it was true because I remember being told he had died a year ago.

On WeChat, I loved making WeChat jokes in the Wuxi He Man group.

My favorite Chuck Norris joke?  When the cops pulled Chuck Norris over, he let them off with a warning.

Friday of the Fourth Week of Lent: 7:52 AM

 


I am starting this entry at the Shopper’s Mall.

I have already prayed the Rosary and extended the Duolingo Streak and talked to Nanjing and Anhui.

I drove Tony to school.  He be my son.  Then, I went to the bank, Sobey’s. Dollarama and Tim’s.  I’ll buy tickets for tomorrow evening’s Wheat King game.

I will read some NGD…I would rather say politicians or princes.

Man matures when he stops believing that politics

will solve his problems.
