Russians just try to perfect everything, don't they?  So, are you going to ride the Pope's plane with the hopes that he'll marry you at 30,000 ft?  :lol:  You finally found your East-European bride!  That is awesome, Laus!!  I pray you all will be able to celebrate your 60th wedding anniversary surrounded by so many grandchildren and great grandchildren you won't be able to count them all and will still only have eyes for your beautiful bride.   :pray3:

On the "Bought anything interesting" front, we bought these in Kansas City night before last;   Now I just have to find a coffee table to go with them.  Oh, and lamps, and if I change these things, I'll need new chairs, a couch to go with the chairs, carpeting to tie it all together, wall paint, I mean, come on, if you are going to go that far, you just have to paint, and last but not least curtains for that little piece of accent...  You know how it is.   ;)  :lol:

I adore Thee O Christ, and I bless Thee, because by Thy holy cross Thou hast redeemed the world!

Jesus, Mary, and Joseph save souls!

"Don't waste time in your life trying to get even with your enemies. The grave is a tremendous equalizer. Six weeks after you all are dead, you'll look pretty much the same. Let the Lord take care of those whom you think have harmed you. All you have to do is love and forgive. Try to forget and leave all else to the Master."– Mother Angelica

My first kettlebell!  Its only a 15#, more for my wife to use, but also for me, I'm not quite the strong farm boy I was a few years ago, and I need to start light anyway because my right shoulder feels goofy.

Good on starting light. Better to work up than hurt yourself.

Missal 1868







Early 19th guide for how an Church of Ireland (Anglican) minister of religion was to visit the sick.

Interesting for me too was that a bicycle mechanic told me all that was wrong with the derailleur on my Trek Marlin mtb was some mal-adjustment, which he resolved. It impresses on me that I should make sure to schedule that I can do my own bike maintenance and to trust another bicycle shop less.

Padre Pio: Pray, hope, and don't worry. Worry is useless. God is merciful and will hear your prayer.

I bought a 1940s travel-sized Missale Romanum for $1.

A serpentine drive belt. Which I replaced on the car.

If you want to learn Spanish, you need to use the immersion method: fix your own car. Chiclets not required.

A socket, a 12 mm head, 14 mm, pry bar, and some youtubing was all I needed. Saved $154 from the stealership!

No, I didn't convert to Islam lol.  Now that I work in a refrigerated warehouse driving forklift this guy comes in real handy.  Ordered one in sand color too for hunting.

2012 Ford Super Duty diesel. Other truck was 1982, so a bit of a step up.
To board the struggle bus: no whining, board with a smile, a fake one will be found out and put off at next stop, no maps, no directions, going only one way, one destination. Follow all rules and you will arrive. Drop off at pearly gate. Bring nothing.

A wig for my giant reproduction ball-jointed composition doll. This is the last thing she needs to be complete. :)
