#48

Here I sit again. At my dinner table, in a not so comfortable chair, typing on a laptop that cannot be unplugged. That's kind of my life.

I was thinking I would post something about the readings from Mass this morning. Then, sadly, I realized that I had totally blanked on what the readings ever were. Isn't that so sad? I was there. I took an active role and was actually present. But, less than 12 hours later, I do not remember the words that were spoken.

I could blame it on P and K. Lets face it, two two year old girls do hinder one's attention span. But they weren't too bad this morning. Yeah, as we were getting to the end of the service, they were horrible. But towards the beginning, the actual reading part, they were pretty great.

And like I said, I was there and paying attention. So I guess the blame lies solely on my oddly shaped shoulders.

I just couldn't hold the words in my mind. I am sure they were thought-provoking and meaningful- after all, they were from the Living Word. But today just wasn't a day for me to be meaningful, I guess. Maybe tomorrow?

I decided to take my monkeys for a walk this afternoon. We have been having amazingly great weather for a few days now. And they weren't taking a nap, so... We got our shoes on and headed out the door. At the same time, J was pulling in the driveway. So he tagged along. We just walked down the road a little way and then turned around and headed back home. The sun was shining, but it was still chilly! Temp in the 40s is super warm for German winters, but it is still cold!

It was nice to get out of the house and just go for a walk though.
