Round Tuit

Talk about irony......I was talking to someone in the house about how they needed to do something and all I could think of was a round tuit.  I explained to them how I remember my grandmother having a "round tuit" on her refrigerator and I bet if I looked on line I could find it.  It was a circle that said round tuit and there was some sort of story inside of it....so that was a memory from the past.

Well.......low and behold, I went to church that weekend and the bulletin had a little section in it about the Gospel.  The Gospel was talking about how we should do and say things that we want to before we can't.  And there was the round tuit with the article....it was a circle with those words round tuit in it.  It now sits on my refrigerator.

Can you imagine that?  I told my father about it and he remembers Gonnie and Uncle Tommy talking about round tuit, etc...

I guess I am getting some message to get around to it in some way.

A call

I went to mass last week to be a Eucharistic Minister.  The lectors did not show up (and there was only one other EM with me), so I offered to read.  I told Father I had been a lector years ago.  So in the back of the church, I practiced real quick before I went up.  I guess when God calls....we answer.....and it was really fun to do it again.  So....if women can do all that in one mass, why is it they can't be deacons or priests?  I guess that is yet to come.

"Barn" is open

Obviously Spring has Sprung....the last two weekends Brendan has had friends sleep over above the garage - the barn.  This weekend Brendan is having friends over from school, above the garage...."Dad, these are big guys who will  help set up the pool table."  A 600+ lb pool table). Katie has plans to have friends  sleep over on Saturday and Bob has planned a pizza party for Connor's basketball team on Saturday, above the garage....I think I should start charging a fee for this place!  It's like having a glorified tree house to hang out in.

The feeling of reading a good book

I just listed a new book in my book section, Handle with Care , by Jodi Picoult. It was a long read, and it took me awhile to get into it, but that was more me than the book. It is very well written and the story is incredible. The reason I am blogging about it - I realized yesterday, as I went through like at least 200 pages, every minute I could pick the book up, that a good book is like a friend....once you get into it, you feel like you are a part of it and you have to know the outcome of what is going to happen to those characters who have grown on you. The power of a good book is amazing-when you can't put it down for anything.....unless your four year old says, "Mommy, I want attention." (Even then, guilt ridden, Irish CAtholic that I am....I thought..."I already gave you attention today in many ways....this is my time." Wow-a good book almost succeeding at overcoming the power of my guilt-amazing.)
