Mood: a-ok
Wow! There's been alot going on the past few days! First, over the weekend, the Sisters of Notre Dame had a celebration to celebrate one hundred years of their academy (Notre Dame Academy here in Covington) being in existence. We had lunch and then mass. Lots of the Sisters were there, including most of the Sisters from the Heights. The bishop also came and said mass. During his homily, he talked about getting more vocations.
After mass, there was cookies and lemonaide. The provincial superior invited me to meet the bishop and introduced me as one of the people discerning with the community. The bishop quoted Shakespere (spelling?) and told me to "Get thee to the nunnery" LOL!
Then on Tuesday night, I couldn't go to mass because there was a standoff a few houses down from where I'm currently living. It started around 3:00 pm and ended at around 9:30 pm. Supposedly there was a man there who had stolen an arsenal of guns and was in his house. The police called in the SWAT team and this was all happening right in front of our house. It was interesting to watch, though a couple of the Sisters went outside across the street to talk with the neighbors who were outside their houses. I was too chicken to go all of the way over there (it was only across the street though).
I also invited the provincial superior (her name is Sr Marla) over for dinner sometime when I'm cooking.
Anyways, that's what's been up with me.
Peace!
