Today Lent begins and I shall try to be faithful to Paddy during the 6 weeks. I am well but still finding it hard to get my oxygen level consistent; but I am working on it.
Today was a full day with spiritual direction in the morning. My sister, Maggie, my niece, Sue, my cousin, Jean and two ladies from the parish came to the rectory for “picnicking in”. We had a great visit and this afternoon, a mother and her three boys stopped by to talk and Colleen and Monty came to see about a second machine. Also talked on the phone to Sally Barrett and yesterday to Keith and Shelia Morris. I watched the Jeopardy Million Dollar competition and enjoyed it. The outside has been so cold that I have been glad to stay home. I missed the Tuesdays with Fr. Maury yesterday because – as I’ve said before – a tiredness just comes over me and I go to bed. I will spend Thursday in my suite and will do the 5:30pm Hunger Mass on Friday and do Stations. I’ll have Saturday to recover.
Keep praying for me and know you are daily in my prayers.
