Worried. Sick.

posted by Catherine Connors | 4:18pm Tuesday October 27, 2009

Jasper is, as I’ve mentioned, sick: respiratory difficulties of some sort or another that haven’t yet been fully determined. What we do know, or think that we know: it’s not swine flu. Which is a relief. Of sorts. We can’t [...]

The Road To Heaven Is Paved With Maracas
Last weekend, I went to Mass for the first time in well over a decade. To say that it was a strange and disorienting experience would be to understate things dramatically.

Blog The Change You Wish To See In The World
I wrote this post a few months back, when I was in Africa.
