Easter Saturday: 6:24 AM
A lovely morning. I’m very busy today: two online classes in the morning, an eight-hour fundraising shift, and a short trial class in the evening.
Composure. Romano Guardini talks about having this when going to Mass. I hope I can possess it when I do today’s tasks.

Easter Friday: 11:16 AM
The morning didn’t go as I figured. I thought I would be going into a classroom, I instead was talking to a woman in Spain. Chalk up another country with which I have talked. My sixth gig! (Two online platforms, two private online arrangements, a fundraising gig and the BSD).
Easter Friday: 6:40 AM
I’m not sure what the day will entail for me. I’m on call waiting to get a phone call. I do have a couple of online classes though.
Also, how about that sunrise?

Thursday 12:25 PM: NGD
From NGD:
- Los hombres se reparten entre los que se complican la vida para ganarse el alma y los que se gastan el alma para facilitarse la vida.
- Men can be divided into those who make their life complicated to gain their soul and those who waste their soul to make their life easier.
Thursday in Easter Week: 6:14 AM
Not having a fixed daily schedule can be wearying. There are times when 5:00 AM is just too early to be getting up.
Today classes with Xinjiang, Istanbul, Fredericton, Torsby and Maple Rudge.
Anywho, about the dawn in the above picture? Isn’t it something?

Wednesday 2:05 PM: Snow
Can you see the fluffy flakes of snow?
It had seemed that Brandon had gotten off the hook because only a little snow, not enough to bother shoveling, had fallen; and a lot had been predicted. But now it seems it is going to snow heavily after all.
Friday, I’ll be on call for the BSD.
Wednesday in Easter Week: Second Communion
After dropping off Tony, I went to Staug.
Then, I went to the BSD to sign a letter.
Life is good in some ways…
