I'm a holy man minus the holiness.--E. M. Forster

Sancte Michael Archangele,

Sancte Michael Archangele, defende nos in proelio;
contra nequitiam et insidias diaboli esto praesidium.
Imperet illi Deus, supplices deprecamur:
tuque, Princeps militiae Caelestis,
satanam aliosque spiritus malignos,
qui ad perditionem animarum pervagantur in mundo,
divina virtute in infernum detrude.
Amen.

4th Sunday of Lent...

Two thirds of Lent done. Spring is definitely here. Cool mornings are followed by warm afternoons. We spent the afternoon working on our new house. At least I am able to accomplish something meaningful.
My career is ending and I HAVE to figure out what to do for the rest of my life..

24th day of Lent...

What a day! Busy at work, but I could've been monitoring cell phone. Hmmm.

Anyway, one of the kids I was in the scouts with just passed away. Barry was several years old than me. And he joined our troop after I did. However, moved fast through the ranks and became an eagle scout. He worked at the local Radio Shack and always gave us the heads up on the latest electronic deals.

Requiem Aeternam dona ei , Domine  et lux perpetua luceat ei: Requiescat  in pace. Amen

23rd Day of Lent...

A restful day. Happy Birthday to my wife. I've been taking her birthday off for awhile and it's been pretty nice. We walked the dogs and played with the grandkids - a good day!

22nd day of Lent...

We are over half way though Lent. Time runs away from us. I need to realize that my work needs to be done from an attitude of humility. Unfortunately, I epitomize the Peter Principle.

I had a dream about trying to go to the organization that I've gotten in trouble with. There was a group of people I was with wandering around Arlington trying to find the meeting place.

21st Day of Lent...

Another busy day at work. I managed to sneak off to the gym. I was doing my sets of the Hang Power Cleans and I missed 155#. There was this other crossfitter doing a WOD & he said my form was good, but I wasn't getting under the bar. He set up two 10# plates down about my hip width stance apart. He had me stand between them and drop as if I was going to catch the bar, making sure as I dropped to bring my feet up on top of the plates. He had me do this at least 5 times. Then I tried to Hang Power Clean 155# again. This time, I DID IT!!  What a cool tip!! I tried it for the rest of the cleans and they felt SO much easier!Do I remember to tell my sons that I love them? Do I love the kids I have to do more for than the ones that I get along with better?

20th Day of Lent...

Today started with a lot of things wrong. A cold shower and a messed up meeting. I didn't get to workout, which was bad.

As much as I like Latin, kneeling, and praying; I must not judge others as not loving the Lord as much as I do!

3rd Sunday of Lent...

The Lord drove the money changers from the Temple. I have to drive bad behaviors from my life.

I dreamed that I was giving a CPR class at work and there were a lot of students. Then I realized that I hadn't set up ANY equipment!!

17th day of Lent...

I made it back fro a meeting today. It was a good one, yet I realize that I'm not the only one with work issues.

I got a fortune cookie yesterday. I said,"Seek out the significance of your problem at this time. Try to understand."

I'm also realizing I'm not one of the best people...

13th day of Lent...

Back to work and more rules on my work.. I feel watched in every direction. Just because you are paranoid does not mean they are not out to get you!

I dreamt that I was helping a homeless bum at one of the local casinos - or I was the homeless bum!
