We had plans yesterday to go to an Easter egg hunt at a friend\u2019s house.\u00a0 The highlight of the evening was to be peeps roasted over a bonfire.<\/p>\n

We didn\u2019t.\u00a0 It rained all day so we spent the day curled up on the couch watching Gulliver\u2019s Travels and eating pot roast.\u00a0 That was our fancy Easter dinner\u2026.pot roast and gravy with steamed rice.\u00a0 It was all kinds of awesome.\u00a0 Who needs fancy ham and trimmings when you can have warm goodness that puts everyone to sleep?\u00a0 (I did miss the promised lemon meringue pie from my friend\u2019s house, though.\u00a0 I\u2019m trying to talk her into bringing me a\u00a0 ~~whole pie<\/strike> piece.<\/p>\n~~

I keep praying about baby names, and that if God has a preference, He\u2019ll let me know.\u00a0 I keep coming back to this kind of offbeat (even for me) name.\u00a0 It stalks me.\u00a0 I did a google search for a saint connection.\u00a0 There isn\u2019t one\u2026..yet.\u00a0 There\u2019s a person under review with this quirky name and I\u2019m kinda liking what I read about him\/her.\u00a0 Of course it could just be God screwing with me again\u2026.He does that, you know.\u00a0 Do I even need to say Horatio<\/a>?\u00a0 I didn\u2019t think so.\u00a0\u00a0 Strange name\u2026kinda weird\u2026my husband doesn\u2019t really like it\u2026.I didn\u2019t either, but I\u2019m warming to it\u2026\u2026.maybe the baby will be the other sex and we\u2019ll just laugh about this one too\u2026<\/p>\n

We\u2019re showing the house tonight and I don\u2019t want to.\u00a0 We decided to lease it.\u00a0 I talked to a property management company.\u00a0 I was relieved to be done selling it.\u00a0 Then they set up a showing appointment.\u00a0 Can they just buy it?\u00a0 I\u2019m furiously cleaning the mess from a rained-in weekend, and I\u2019d like it to pay off for me.\u00a0 That would be nice.\u00a0 Then we could take our oddly named children and move and not look back.<\/p>\n

Lent\u00a0 Prayer buddies\u2026.I had the great pleasure of praying for Beth from I Dreamed a Dream.<\/a>\u00a0 It was a blog I\u2019d never read before.\u00a0 I kinda like that.\u00a0 I like getting to know new people and learning all about them.\u00a0 She has been struggling with infertility for a while now.\u00a0 She killed me with he comments of\u00a0 \u201cAre you there prayer buddy?\u201d\u00a0 I wanted to say \u201cI\u2019m here!\u00a0 I\u2019m praying!\u201d\u00a0 It\u2019s been a lesson in silence, patience and prayer for me.\u00a0 I took her with me to daily Mass until I was too ill to go, and then I offered it all up for her.\u00a0 I\u2019ve also promised to keep offering it up and praying for her until we move at the end of May.\u00a0 Go on over there and say Hello.<\/p>\n<\/body><\/html>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
