I've decided to give up the forum for Lent. Not sure if I'll be back on Sundays or go straight through. God bless, everyone!
My Lord and my God.

Sad but Goodspeed!
In conclusion, I can leave you with no better advice than that given after every sermon by Msgr Vincent Giammarino, who was pastor of St Michael's Church in Atlantic City in the 1950s:

    "My dear good people: Do what you have to do, When you're supposed to do it, The best way you can do it,   For the Love of God. Amen"

Changed my mind, I'm giving up coffee instead. I figure I need all the distraction I can get at the moment.
My Lord and my God.

This might not be the best time to quit coffee either, especially cold turkey.  I quit all caffeine a few  months ago and its a very rough ride.  Unless you've done this before and you don't get a reaction. 

Accepting your father's passing with resignation already seems to have made up a suitable Lenten penance.
"My hope is the Father, my refuge is the Son, my protection is the Holy Spirit.  Holy Trinity, glory to You." 
"All my hope I place in you, O Mother of God; keep me under your protection."

That's a good point on both counts.
