I believe Episcopalian Priests are able to help their parishioners more with marital and family life than Catholic Priests, who are of course, celibate.

I made a nice supper, then boiled and peeled a dozen eggs and cleaned the 2 quarts of strawberries that we bought from a local farm yesterday. I hope they’re good - they’d better be for $5/qt!

In a little bit, I’ll do the dishes, and that will be it for tonight. I’s tahred. It’s definitely a night for Mel.

Happy Sunday!

Athough it is almost over.

It’s cold and rainy outside, and cold inside, but we are refusing to turn on the heat.  
We had thunderboomers all last night.  
So far it seems Ripple is not bothered by thunder.

**Red** had I thought about it I probably would have realized it isn’t Latin.  
I listen to Enigma more for the music than the lyrics.

I cleaned out the pantry, I have a bunch of stuff to take to my mother’s.  
We’ll be heading down to the armpit soon, next weekend is Mother’s Day and the following week is Sah-son’s and my birthdays.  
I need to order something for her, probably Sherri’s Berries, she likes their chocolate dipped strawberries and mini cheesecakes.  
Unless we decide to go this weekend and not the next one. Usually the HFH takes her out on Mother’s Day, so maybe we’ll go the next one.

Home from heathenization and the dog park.

Miss K was one adult short for herding [del]cats[/del] kids, so I hung out with the littles. I’ll have them again in August, as that’s when she has baby #6. :eek: I brought up the idea for a meal train with one of our board members who’s on teh Kids comittee and I think we will do a meal train for her family. The board member was on board as we did something similar when he and his husband were caring for his father at the end of his life and still keeping up with their two daughters’ school and music activities.

Nelson had a good run with his puppy peeps at the dog park. There were three corgis who were more than happy to play tag with the chihuahua mutts. He’s tahred. 😃 I made chicken pie and a side of yellow squish for supper. Twas good.

It’s because Catholics can’t conceive of women priests and Episcopalians have priests that can conceive.  
Got fed at the Cracker Barrel and bought a bag of Charles Chips just for nostalgia (anyone else remember the big cans of chips that got delivered to your door?).

Some thunder-boomers in the area right now, so in for the evening.

All y’all take care and I’ll catch you in the next week’s MMP.
