Friday of the Third Week of Lent: 8:02 AM

 


My son Tony woke me up, around 4:00 AM, complaining of a sore neck.  I gave him some advil.

I’ve talked to Anhui province.  Later, I’ll talk to Brazil and Chile.

I’ll take my Mom shopping this aft. Tony doesn’t have school today. Professional Development Day.

No meat for me.  It’s Friday.  

To go or not to go to Friday Mass.  That is the question.

About 1.5 km’s from here, a person or persons went on a tire-slashing spree.  At least 75 cars had their tires slashed.  Who did it?  A drug addict, a homeless malcontent, teenagers having shits & giggles, or a tire company wanting business? I hope they catch the perpetrator(s).  Thankfully, I have a garage in which to park.

catástrofe.

An NGD quote.  I came across it today.  If it was a cheese stick, it would have knocked me over.  As it was, the quote hit me with the force of an anvil.  I have nothing to fear.  (Have to present it to my RCIA group).


Thanks to reading the Alec Guinness book, I am reading this Anthony Trollope novel:  The Way We Live Now.  Guinness said it was a wonderful book, and so far, in my reading of it, I am agreeing with him.  There are already passages I am highlighting.


It isn’t all bad in the world of news.  Chile has a new President who is classified as an ultra conservative Catholic.  I will have to ask my Santiago student about him.
