Mondays......

Besides a tornado drill and a bird flying around in one of the buildings one of the lamp posts in parking lot fell over and was blocking one of the exits when I left school. Sure is an exciting first day back at school. Yep that is what happened this morning while I was at school. My theory behind the lamp post falling over is that the imaginary tornado that came through during the drill decided to knock it over. When I come up with a theory on how the bird got inside the school, besides flying through a door way, I will let you know.

7 Quick Takes Friday

--- 1 --- Even though I kind of set myself up for this on accident, but I was roped into acting in "The 7 last Words of Christ." I was originally not going to help because my job didn't allow for me to make a lot of the practices. But then I had to say something about having to work so I couldn't make all of the practices or something along those line.       --- 2 --- I was going to say how I don't like snow, especially after the first day of spring, but I wasn't sure how I was going to word it. I was also going to mention something about the rain that we have been having as well, of course I couldn't figure out how to word it without making it sound weird. --- 3 --- I found this on Tumblr and I really like it so I decided to share it here :) --- 4 --- Last week my sister wrote a post on her blog about how she is a secret ninja, because she somehow managed to hurt her ankle. And last week my right wrist started hurting a little and I ...

Themed Thursday: Hear

I am linking up again for Theme Thursday and this weeks theme is "hear." And like Taylor Swift says in her song "The Story of Us,"   I've never heard silence quite this loud. 

Happy Feast of the Annunciation

Image
V.   The Angel of the Lord declared unto Mary. R.   And she conceived of the Holy Spirit. Hail Mary ,   etc. V.   Behold the handmaid of the Lord, R.   Be it done unto me according to Thy word. Hail Mary ,   etc. V.   And the Word was made flesh, R.   And dwelt amongst us. Hail Mary ,   etc. V.   Pray for   us, O most holy Mother of God, R.   That we may be made worthy of the promises of Christ. Let us pray. Pour forth, we beseech Thee, O Lord, Thy grace into our hearts; that, as we have known the Incarnation of Christ Thy Son by the message of an Angel, so by His Passion and Cross we may be brought to the glory of the Resurrection. Through the same Christ our Lord. Amen.

7 Quick Takes Friday

--- 1 --- In case you haven't seen it yet there is a youtube video of "Let It Go" being sung in different character voices from Disney and Pixar movies floating around on Facebook and it is hysterical. I like the guys Micky Mouse and Whinnie the Pooh impressions. You can find the video here . --- 2 --- On Saturday my family and I finally got to watch "Thor: The Dark World" and we all enjoyed it. Especially once Loki showed up. We all loved this scene . I also thought that the funeral scene for Thor's mother was sad and beautiful at the same time. Here is a link to the scene . If you haven't seen it yet I apologize for the spoilers. --- 3 --- The amazing Irish Soda bread that we have every year on St. Patrick's Day. --- 4 --- This is the one week during Lent that I like to think of as our splurging on sweets week. The reason being that we celebrate St. Patrick's day at the beginning of the week, then on the 19th is the fest...

Theme Thursday: Rich

Image
Today I decided to join in on the photography fun known as Theme Thursday and is hosted each week over at Clan Donaldson . My mother has been doing this each week for a while now and I decided to join in this week. The theme for this week is rich and here is my interpretation of that.

Happy Feast of St. Joseph

Image
Oh,  St. Joseph , whose protection is so great, so strong, so prompt before the throne of  God . I place in you all my interests and desires. Oh,  St. Joseph , do assist me by your powerful intercession, and obtain for me from your divine Son all spiritual blessings, through  Jesus Christ , our Lord. So that, having engaged here below your heavenly power, I may offer my thanksgiving and homage to the most loving of Fathers. Oh,  St. Joseph , I never weary of contemplating you, and  Jesus  asleep in your arms; I dare not approach while He reposes near your  heart . Press  Him  in my name and kiss  His  fine head for me and ask him to return the Kiss when I draw my dying breath.  St. Joseph, Patron of departing souls  -  Pray for me .
