Sunday Morning

OK, so I missed my first target ... but not by much.

Yes, I got my roaster AND free turkey AND free kitchen knife the other day. The knife is Farberware (10.00 value) and I got a BIG turkey. I'll probably save the turkey for our Parish Epiphany Dinner ...

Yesterday I was rent-a-priest for a funeral service up on the north side. The funeral home had asked me (when I was at yet another funeral on Friday) if I'd be available to do a simple service for this family. The gentleman was from Indy, raised Catholic, but not attached to a church, and will be buried in Pennsylvania. In the words of Abbot Lambert, "I like funerals" so of course I made myself available. I gave mny card to the funeral home and told them to call whenever they need a priest, and if I can, I will help. I told them (the funeral home people) that some priests are great with kids or youth ... my "thing" is tending to the dying, the dead and the mourning.

GREAT BIG lightning and thunder early this morning ... rattled the windows.

Things are gearing up around here ... I already have four weddings on my books for 2008. I'm getting my irons into different fires, and dabbling with some projects. I am not bored nor wanting for things to do, and I'm having fun.

The one emerging problem concerns the mint chocolate chip ice cream which has been on sale 2 for 1 in recent weeks ... I gotta start walking ... or something.
