Well, Sister Pipesanddrums, how good to hear from you and to hear that all is going well. Your report of the short cut was pretty entertaining as well.

Thanks for the report. I was prompted to look up the Sisters of St. Joseph as a result.

I am so very glad that things are working out for you. You've been in my thoughts and obviously Sister Joan is keeping an eye on you, too!!!

[BEEDEE]

Glad to hear you are settled.

Yeah, its odd how roads near there can go from 4 lanes to narrow gravel in an instant.

I used to like a mall just past the airport when I lived up that way.

Sounds like you've found a wonderful new local community. Shalom.

The Sisters of St. Joseph sounded familiar when I read that... I wonder if they are affiliated with the Sisters of St. Joseph of Medaille. (I'm not Catholic so I know precious little about this sort of thing).

One of their most famous members is Sister Helen Prejean (well-known consistent life ethicist and capital punishment abolishonist) http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Helen_Prejean. She's most famous for having written the book that the movie Dead Man Walking was based on.

Sister,

It gives me great pleasure to read that things are going well for you.

Best wishes to you!

Cheers

Congratulations Sister! Community living is a sure way to holiness - just ask St. Therese!

What? No burlap sheets and a log for a pillow? Tsk! Tsk!

Seriously, I'm very happy for you. A whole new adventure!

What? No burlap sheets and a log for a pillow? Tsk! Tsk!

And they were glad to have that log!!!

You forgot about having to walk through knee-deep snow to get to the chapel, uphill, both ways.

Sounds like there are a lot of positives and few negatives about your move! Congratulations on the new journey life and God will give you
