Well: January 2008

Tuesday, January 01, 2008. Last night Kevin and I got to watch Rome explode. Quite a sight. (& clearly we've lived to tell about it . . . ). We took the train into the city to spend New Year's at the newly-acquired apartment of one of Kevin's roommates from last year - Davide. He has a nice spot just northeast of the Vatican - you can see the top of the spire of St. Peter's, but the rest of the basilica is obscured by buildings. Kevin picked up a few for our own last night's immediate entertainment. ...

Well: May 2006

Tuesday, May 30, 2006. On dogmatism and hide-and-seek. This rang bells of my not-so-distant past for me (doctrine and sacramental life though I'd had) as we read it tonight at a book group I'm in - a selection from Caryll Houselander: Essential Writings. It is the most precious and intimate thing that he has, and all too often the unskilled apostle gives him the wholly wrong impression that the Church threatens it. In reality, the Catholic as much as the non Catholic, has his secret life with God, his co...

Well: December 2007
http://fluxit.blogspot.com/2007_12_01_archive.html
Friday, December 28, 2007. Christmas in Florence (& Rome). This wee little girl was definitely the highlight of Kevin's and my Christmas - no, she's not ours to take home; her parents, Bill and Christi, are keeping her (& may themselves have taken her home today). If you look closely, I think you can probably see her proud Babbo ("Daddy" for uninitiated Americans) wrapped around her teeny tiny pinky. Friday, December 14, 2007. And some free ones! The impetus for this post, though, was an newsletter.

Friday, January 30, 2009. Lots of Water Under the Bridge . . . So it's been almost a year since I last posted. What has changed? Well, Kevin and I are back in the States, in the Great White North (I try to tell Kevin that Michigan winters aren't this white, but I'm not sure he believes me). Kevin is an officially licensed moral theologian and is working on his doctoral thesis. And we have a baby:. In the other part of my "spare" time, I've been launching NovAntiqua.

Well: June 2006

Saturday, June 03, 2006. Will brake for change? Slowly but surely I have been learning how to drive my "new," post-totalled-Prizm car, a 1994 Nissan Altima. With a manual transmission. I am not good at it. I don't stall too much anymore - I just sound now, as Ruth says, "as if you want to drag-race everyone at every stoplight." I'm working on it. How did it get there? Visions of someone emptying a change jar into the handbrake well. Doesn't seem possible. Probable, rather. Thursday, June 01, 2006. An odd...

Well: October 2007
http://fluxit.blogspot.com/2007_10_01_archive.html
Wednesday, October 31, 2007. Well, at long last, here I am again - except that now I'm officially a "we." After a whirlwind wedding, honeymoon, and student-visa-getting, Kevin and I have landed safely here in Rome, found a lovely place to live in the seaside town of Santa Marinella (roughly an hour north of Rome by train), and are mostly settled into classes at the Angelicum. As far as immediate news goes, Henry and Roz, friends from Michigan, are in town, and we're meeting them for dinner this evening&#...
