I just learned this expression, “Snow bunnies”. It refers to people who don’t come out of their house when it’s cold. I guess I am one.
I went back to the rectory on Sunday afternoon and stayed there.
On Monday, I had the 11am Mass and then went back to take a nap. I had seven young people who are being confirmed, come to my office for an interview. I really enjoy them and their comments.
On Tuesday, I had exposition at 3pm and three more interviews. Then I had the 5:30pm Mass and went home.
On Wednesday, again I had exposition and the 5:30pm Mass. I only had two interviews. I shared a snack with Fr. Percy as tomorrow, he will fly out to India and spend a month visiting his family.
On Thursday, my day off. I just lounged around my suite and went to a Chinese restaurant when I had a good meal with lots of laughter. I met my cousins, Jean Denney, Jim and Eileen Denney, and Sue Denney Rogus. We try to do that every couple of months. We always enjoy catching up on the family.
Today I had the 8am and 11am Masses. I met with a lady who is not a Catholic but feels “at home” here when she comes and wanted to talk about that. I gave her Joe’s book and we’ll meet again. I had 5 interviews and one called to cansel because she was ill. We’ll re-schedule.
I’m going over for supper (just the pastor and I are signed in) and then I’ll just relax.
I have the 11am Mass on Saturday and at 1pm, I’ll preside at the Mass for Mr. McGreevy (Mac) who died last month in Colorado. I don’t know who is coming but I hope to see a lot of the family. We might go out to eat together afterwards.
On Sunday, I have the 7:30am Mass and then I’ll give Kevin his First Communion and Confirm him. He is my fireman and a great guy. I also have a baptism at noon and then I’ll join the rest of the world and kind of watch The Super Bowl (and eat good food)!!!!
I, too, became a snow bunny this week, but it was because I had a heavy cold and felt terrible. Had to cancel my trip to Florida 🙁
