Day 293: Linkadoodle!

I'm coping out here. I've had a few tabs open of stuff I wanted to share, so here are some links.

About Those Unthinking, Backward Catholics - Archbishop Chaput. Chaput is awesome.

 How We Discuss Imperfect Heroes With Kids - Kendra from Catholic All Year. We all know Kendra is my hero, so it was great to have a new post from her. She's busy. I admire how truthful she is with her kids, and how well-thought-out her parenting is. The Interwebs seem to think Columbus Day shouldn't be a thing because he wasn't perfect. I like her perspective.

 Why "Don't Look" Won't be Enough - Jenny at Mama Needs Coffee. I can't have a link fest without Jenny. Terrifying but true. We all need to address kids and pornography, and way earlier than we think we should.

Raising Saints - More Jenny. I wish she was my next door neighbor.

Take a free Love Languages quiz here. My spouse and I both took it. We haven't taken it for the kids yet but I'm pretty sure we've got them pegged. Good times.

Is that enough? I think it is. I am pretty sure there were at least a couple more I wanted to share, but I can't remember them, so I guess those ships have sailed.

Day 149: Date with Mom

Mom and I slipped away yesterday afternoon for a trip to town. We had a relaxing couple of hours away from all the chaos at the lake. We shopped, drove around town chatting, I visited the sacrament of reconciliation, and we picked up my favorite small-town pizza joint pizza for supper. I love my hometown so much, but don't spend much time there anymore now that my parents live at the lake. I enjoyed cruising around town catching up on the changes and updates. Mom caught me up on local news, and I accidentally bought a dress, two shirts and a travel mug. That type of thing happens when I hang with my mom, but that's OK!  It was a wonderful afternoon and I'm grateful for our little escape.

Day 183: Friday

I totally blame falling behind in ye olde gratitude posts on the busy holiday weekend. Friday. Friday...I barely remember Friday. I know I cleaned and packed up for the weekend and we had two showings scheduled.  I mostly enjoyed my 250-mile drive alone. I finished up C.S. Lewis's Till We Have Faces  in Audible. I'm still liking Audible even though it's expensive. C.S. Lewis is always good, and his books are worthy of my gratitude.  Oh and we got an acceptable offer on the house. Boom!

I Am A Blogger: CWBN 2017 Recap

The last weekend in March I had the great pleasure of attending a real life blogging conference! Like a real blogger! Cathedral of St. Paul Jacqui ,  Anna  and  Susanna  hosted the Catholic Women's Blogging Network Twin Cities get together at a stunning Summit Avenue mansion in St. Paul. Thirty-some wonderful Catholic women from the Twin Cities, the Midwest, and even Maryland joined up to talk blogging and really just to support each other and build each other up. My friend Monica encouraged me to go, and I signed up on a bit of a whim, figuring that if I paid for registration I'd be more inclined to go. If I didn't have a mutual friend link to one of the organizers, and if a couple of my most favoritest bloggers hadn't been speakers, I'd probably have chickened out.  In response to my evident nerves on the way, my husband wisely mused, "Well, if you're going to walk into a group of people you don't know, this is probably the best group yo...
