Lent 2012 – On The Road II

Lent 2012 – Good Friday

Remember the Reason for the Season! I’ve heard that one a lot, haven’t you? It comes around twice each year. Every fall, folks fall all over themselves to remind us to remember the reason for the season… And that’s good. I don’t mean to sound as though we SHOULDN’T be reminded to remember the reason. Continue reading “Lent 2012 – Good Friday”

Lent 2012 – Day 44 (Thursday)

Well, we’re in the final stretch for Holy Week. Lent is nearly over. Easter is around the corner. And it’s time for “Eric’s Newslets” once again (see my post of March 14 for my first newslets post.) The day I posted my last post about the dog, I arrived home and found the my passportContinue reading “Lent 2012 – Day 44 (Thursday)”

Lent 2012 – Day 34 (Monday)

I have a sunburn. In March. We mowed the lawn Sunday, and then hosed down the driveway (an annual tradition). In March. Our bedroom was 80 degrees when we went to bed last night. In March. We’ve not shut our bedroom windows (all three of them) in over two weeks. In March. Ixchel caught severalContinue reading “Lent 2012 – Day 34 (Monday)”

Lent 2012 – Day 22 (Wednesday)

Gosh, over a week since I wrote last. Lots of “newslets” but nothing really serious to write about! So, I guess I did not succeed at my hope of writing daily through Lent. Sigh. So, let’s go over some of those “newslets” (small newsy type items). I’m getting a triple root canal today. One tooth,Continue reading “Lent 2012 – Day 22 (Wednesday)”

Lent 2012 – Day 14 (Tuesday)

Oh Happy Day! Today, this wondrous of days… I learned I am soon to be the joyous recipient of not 1, not 2, but 3 – THREE – root canals. I think actually it still qualifies as only 1 root canal, but the tooth has what appears to be 3 separate channels that will needContinue reading “Lent 2012 – Day 14 (Tuesday)”

Lent 2012 – Day 10 (Friday)

He thought then he had chosen a high road and would walk it to the end, whereas I know now that roads choose us and what they unfold before us is not the person we want to be, but the person we already are, the person time slowly discloses to us. Holloway, Richard (2012-03-01). LeavingContinue reading “Lent 2012 – Day 10 (Friday)”

Lent 2012 – Day 9 (Thursday)

Normally, when I write, I begin by reviewing my previous posts. Especially during this Lenten journey as I attempt to post daily, I’ve been going over all my previous posts this Lent. Something triggers a thought I can write about. But today, this can’t happen. I’m at work with a network that is completely down,Continue reading “Lent 2012 – Day 9 (Thursday)”

Lent 2012 – Day 8 (Wednesday)

I honestly don’t have a lot to write about today. But I avowed that I would try to write daily during Lent 2012, and so write I shall! Saturday, I wrote about the Excel tripod, Prayer/Study/Action. For Lent this year, my study is a book entitled “The Last Week: A Day-by-Day Account of Jesus’s FinalContinue reading “Lent 2012 – Day 8 (Wednesday)”

Lent 2012 – Day 7 (Tuesday)

Today is a “Doctor Day”. It’s one of those days I cram in as many medical appointments as possible so that I can get them all over with at once. Only, it didn’t work. My first visit today was to the dentist. I very much do not like going to the dentist. I very muchContinue reading “Lent 2012 – Day 7 (Tuesday)”

Lent 2012 – Day 6 (Monday)

I awakened this morning with a low grade headache. It’s a headache of the sinus variety, I’m thinking. The kind that makes any degree of higher-level thought unwelcome. It’s the kind of headache that entices me to seek out an “off-the-radar” kind of day. Does that make sense? If I were home today, I’d nap,Continue reading “Lent 2012 – Day 6 (Monday)”
