It’s been awhile since my last post and I missed talking with all of you. I haven’t posted for a good reason, though. I bought a new house!
So I have spent these many months settling into our new home, decorating it, and adjusting to suburban life.

I say, follow the action of the Pope. On January 23, 2010 Pope Benedict XVI gave a new commandment to priests struggling to get their message across: Go forth and blog.
