Request For Prayers

Please include Tom and I in your prayers during the next couple of days: Tom for safe travel and myself for my surgery tomorrow.

Tom's wedding was wonderful, and I'm sure he'll blog about it when he returns.

I'll resume blogging next week. It was great to meet some of our readers (i.e. Tom's relatives and friends) at Tom's wedding.

For those who made it to Ash Wednesday mass today, what would you say your ash mark most resembles?:

____ Cross

____ Highway Underpass Diagram

____ Smudge

____ Rorschach Test


For the first time in years, I have what resembles a cross on my forehead. I have been careful not to touch my forehead all day, and will likely take a picture of it when I get home, so that I may fondly remember this miraculous event.
