I am in Baltimore to participate in a conference. I just checked into the hotel and slowly learned how to connect to the hotel wi-fi.
I don’t have my appointment book with me, so I don’t know why I didn’t write on Wednesday. Susan Cassidy came in the morning and we worked on my Christmas letter for 2008-2009-2010 & 2011 for about five hours. It is my hope to get it out before I leave the country.
I had exposition, a Confirmation interview,5:30 Mass, my RCiA student, and at 7:30pm, I went to the last session of Pre-Cana. I went to bed by 10pm
Today, I had the 6:30am Mass. Then Sharon Beall met me and we picked up Isabelle Gallagher and we drove down to Leonardtown, Md for Mrs Pott’s funeral. It was lovely and lots of people from many of the parishes where Fr. Ron has served. Also Bishop Knestow and Bishop Curlin were there. Fr. Ron gave a beautiful homily. I saw lots of old friends like Fr. John DAKES, who is pastor there and Maggie Grau,from St. Camillus days.
We didn’t go to the burial or luncheon. We stopped at RIP’S for a bite and to unwind. When I returned to the center, there was a man who needed to talk with a priest, so I spent an hour with him and then went to the rectory to relax. At 6pm, I headed over here. I don’t think I’ll go over to the conference tonight. I think I’ll just relax
No wonder I didn’t see you today! Went to 2 great talks!! See you tomorow.
