OK MLG. No more caffeine. We don't want you to get dangerous.
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.

I don't know about MLG, but a reasonable amount of caffeine at regular intervals is probably what keeps me from becoming dangerous!  :lol:

It's a fine, fine line.

Ok. Enough. You should begin getting going. Really, just make the sign of the cross, go get your coffee. Good morning!

Meditating on this alone, could take all Lent.  I'm thinking St. Alphonsus Liguori's Preparation for Death.  No wonder Lent begins with Ash Wednesday.

I made a Lent plan book last night, to help get all my ideas and what not out of my brain.  It'll help me plan for Holy Week and Easter, too.

Good idea , Munda. One year I got a poster of Christ with the crown of thorns. We glued it to a piece of styrogfoam. We filled it with tooth picks. Every good deed done by the children allowed them to remove a tooth pick to bring Christ relief. Worked well. Kids liked the idea of sparing our Lord pain.

It would qualify as an act of mercy for me to do that during lent.  Which reminds me that I need to go get a box of hair color.

We do something similar.  We make a crown of thorns out of salt dough, and put toothpicks in it for the thorns, which are removed by prayers and sacrifices.  It stays on our dining room table all through Lent.  Then, on Easter morning, the jar with the crown of thorns turns into sweets.  The miracle of God's grace!  He turns our sacrifices into something better.

Mundane that is totally the idea! Guess we think alike! Was real cute to see them scaling for good deeds so Jesus would not sufFer a single toothpick by the end of lent. It was a very positive experience to sooth our Lord with good works!
