I do have a twin! But she’s very much a C and E Anglican. And sometimes not even the E.

Sure let’s just put that on my already rather long “To Do” list 😉

I did stay in bed most of the day. And from my bed I got all the Advent Sunday and Vespers bulletins done, music selected (since we’re current between Music Directors) and two Advent Vespers homilies written.

Amazing how much you can get done from bed on your day off.

Convent? We’ll have nun of that, thank you.

I think you look hot. Which is ironic since you’re probably chilly with less hair.

😉🔥

He’s worth it. Yes.
Any of the “stories” in and of themselves? No. Not at all.

Nurse Chester back on duty.
Was terribly nauseous after morning services yesterday. Managed to preach at our curate’s ordination and see him ordained - then had to bow out as I felt the nausea returning. Grateful for an understanding bishop and for parishioners who held the reception without me.

I’ve learned the gentle art of interrupting with a touch or an eyebrow raise. This works when we’re with other people. When we’re alone he feels no qualms about just getting to the end of the script.

I’m sorry but I don’t promote fund raising posts from people I don’t know and can’t verify.

The second service was the ordination of our curate to the priesthood. Both services were Eucharists so those in attendance took communion at both. There is no rule against taking communion more than once in a day as long as they are at separate masses.

5/. Called it.

“No idea.”

4/ 29 minutes.

I’m making a prediction: I’m going to ask a final time “So, what was the name of the store?” And he’s going to say “Oh, I have no idea.”

And I won’t divorce him.
That’s love, people.

Oh I stopped listening around the 13 minute mark. I am still nodding occasionally however.
November 23, 2025 at 12:47 AM
3/ 27 minutes…still haven’t heard the name of the store.

He’s still talking.
Bless his heart.

2/ I simply asked him where he bought the pasta that he’s serving for dinner and 20 minutes later I’m still listening to the harrowing history of the family that owns a little shop in the east end of Toronto along with the genetic composition of a certain type of wheat. 🙄

Reader, I married him.

One of the things I admire about my husband is his enthusiasm for life. He finds such joy and excitement in the most mundane of things. I envy this ability.

But….

It does often lead to an overabundance of information when he is asked a simple question. He is the King of Overexplaining. /1 …
November 23, 2025 at 12:40 AM
Agreed.
November 22, 2025 at 6:48 PM
Well…not all of you. 😉

Goodness I’m blocking a lot of people today.

Also autism may be an explanation for directness. It’s not an excuse for rudeness.
November 22, 2025 at 6:33 PM
Ok. Sorry?

I quite enjoyed the series when I was a child. Definitely didn’t destroy my love of reading. Quite the opposite.

Trans people aren’t playing dress up or pretending anything.

The fact you don’t know your science or your history (your timeline is way off) shows your bigotted opinion on this needn’t be taken seriously.

My trans goddaughter died because of people like you with ignorance like yours.

Blocked.

Having been worked with many people through their grief, I can say yes they come back. Every memory now is seen through the lens of grief which adds its own emotional filters. As you process that grief and move further from the immediacy of the loss you begin to see them more clearly. 🙏🏻

He tried. But all he could do was sew up the tear on the e body. The limb itself had been too damaged.

My current source of outrage is everyone thinking Oz started in 1939.

Schwartz is talking about another movie to “expand the Oz franchise” like L.Frank Baum and subsequent writers Ruth Plumly Thompson, John R. Neill, Jack Snow, and Eloise Jarvis McGraw haven’t already written 40 books about Oz.
