The Log in My Own Eye: December 2010
http://anadventjourney.blogspot.com/2010_12_01_archive.html
The Log in My Own Eye. Friday, December 31, 2010. The Last Minutes of 2010. Some birds who came by this afternoon. I was terrified of that eventuality. Of course, he did die, but he was 81 at the time. I managed to live through 40 years where my daddy didn't die. And all that wasted energy and unhappiness in the meantime! At work, people have been saying "I hope 2011 is a better year! Now, that is just crazy, because I didn't even want to quit! My son got married! And his wife had a baby girl! I am in my...

The Log in My Own Eye: June 2011
http://anadventjourney.blogspot.com/2011_06_01_archive.html
The Log in My Own Eye. Sunday, June 19, 2011. I finished my icon yesterday afternoon, after eight days of work. Work that was as tiring as "work," but definitely a lot more fruitful. At the end of each day I said I would write and post photos here, but I was absolutely too tired to do anything! I have some news that I don't want to post in the same entry as my icon. So, I will write it later, and probably date it earlier - so it doesn't come up on top. God bless you all. Say a prayer for Mike, please?

The Log in My Own Eye: August 2011
http://anadventjourney.blogspot.com/2011_08_01_archive.html
The Log in My Own Eye. Monday, August 29, 2011. After a Couple of Months. This is the interior of the Vail Interfaith Chapel. I attended Mass there last weekend because I was in Vail for a half-marathon. It was a wonderful Mass despite the rather generic surroundings. The marquee outside lists the services for many different religions, it was nice that I could get to Mass while out of town. How many people, including children, might have bought this phony message. The sad thing is that I know I am in the...

The Log in My Own Eye: March 2011
http://anadventjourney.blogspot.com/2011_03_01_archive.html
The Log in My Own Eye. Thursday, March 31, 2011. It hit me like a bolt of lightening today. Safety is not really the best thing to wish for our offspring. I want my son to be safe. I don't want him in the middle east. I don't want him gone for a year. I don't want him to not see his infant daughter for a year, and be away from his wife. etc. Wednesday, March 30, 2011. Last week I wrote about wanting a wooden rosary - something more austere than the sparkly red beads I am currently using. Is this sheer va...

The Log in My Own Eye. Monday, February 28, 2011. Screwtape smacks me in the face this morning. CS Lewis, The Screwtape Letters. Sunday, February 27, 2011. I took this photo before mass last night. I love the way the light streams through the stained glass windows of my church as the sun shines in the late evening. Thank you for your prayers. I appreciate them more than words can say. Saturday, February 26, 2011. I actually went to bed after hearing this. And I shook. And cried. And prayed. The year he w...

The Log in My Own Eye. Friday, June 3, 2011. I have a half-marathon tomorrow. And I have my 8 month old granddaughter all day Sunday. I bought a little swimming suit and pool for her. We shall have a great time. And then I took a day of vacation on Monday, because I will likely need a day in bed to recover from all of this! Have a beautiful weekend everyone. June 3, 2011 at 7:59 PM. June 3, 2011 at 9:24 PM. I think I invented power walking back in the 70s, LOL. ( I was a sit up champ though! Judge not, t...

The Log in My Own Eye: April 2011
http://anadventjourney.blogspot.com/2011_04_01_archive.html
The Log in My Own Eye. Saturday, April 30, 2011. I just went to Mass in the town where I am staying for the race tomorrow. It is a beautiful old church, and I was impressed that the church was full, and almost silent prior to the beginning of Mass. It was lovely. I was disappointed that nothing was said of Pope John Paul II's beatification today. And Divine Mercy Sunday was only mentioned in passing. In my parish, Divine Mercy Sunday is a BIG deal. And I like it that way. God bless you all. I was so upse...
