Yay! I get to part for two days :smiley:Will pray for your situation at mass Katy .
 
@katy
I’m so sorry to hear about what’s happening at your parish. I will keep you all in my prayers.

We really, really, really need to pray and sacrifice for our priests – everyday!
 
Guys!!! What happens when it is Easter and we are obligated by the Church to be happy!!! What will us Curmudgeons do?
 
Hmm, it seems we are all at present going against out Curmugeonly nature in being pleasant for Lent…perhaps we celebrate by being our grumpy selves again?
 
Don’t worry, behind my Easter joy I’ll still be complaining. The church will be all crowded, I’ll have to wear nice clothes. Plenty to complain about 😠
 
He’s taught you commendably

Now you must take your new found skill and disperse
the forum skirmishes,rumbles in the jungles and fray.
 
Yeah, what happened to that whole acid rain alarm? I’d completely forgotten about it, maybe due to decrease in coal use? What caused acid rain in the first place?
Acid rain was caused by burning coal that had a high sulfur content. This produced sulfur dioxide which would be released as part of the smoke. When exposed to water in the atmosphere (i.e., clouds), this produced sulfuric acid, which would precipitate out with the rain.

Improvements in scrubber technology (which attempts to remove certain pollutants from coal smoke), the improvements in treating coal to remove sulfur compounds before burning, and the move to use natural gas for power generation has lead to the reduction in acid rain in the US. Although it isn’t talked about publicly, it is still an issue in China (which heavily relies on coal).

And some people will again be saving seats for 6 other people right in the place where I want to sit.😡 The problem won’t be as bad as the children’s Christmas Mass on Christmas eve at the parish my grandchildren go to though.😡

We will frolic and be merry out of obedience to Holy Mother Church.

We don’t have to like it. We just have to obey.

👵🚬

Enjoy your Lent while you may, mudgers. Easter is coming.
 
Happy Birthday, @Greenfields!

I hope that you feel better, and that you had/have a lovely birthday! ❤️ 🍰

Wishing you all of the very best, along with God’s blessings, now and always!
 
Thank you so much! :hugs: it started off just a bit sad ,but by the end of the day had been a great day.
I offered my ticly thoat up in mass today …you know,that dreaded tickle where your eyes are watering and you know you could have a coughing fit any moment and you think 'will I ,won’t I run to the foyer and cough.
Apart from a scratchy throat no outward symptoms.KFC chips helped after 😁
 
Awww…❤️

I always get especially impatient and irritable when I start to get ill with something on either a holiday or a birthday.

It’s just such a miserable time for that to happen!

Sending lots of love and hugs your way. ❤️

I’m also sending warm and soothing comfort foods and drinks, like homemade chicken noodle soup and hot chocolate for you, through cyber-space. :coffee: 🥣
 
Thanks OGM, I feel really pampered today .Life is good.
I hope you are having little tastes of Spring, and that picks up the spirit.
(53 minutes before I can ‘like’ …I don’t know how many.)

Ahh Spring!

One of my favorite seasons of the year…!

Yes, the weather is starting to turn around outdoors, and it is starting to become warmer outside.

Our outdoor temps. are starting to warm up. We’re headed for the 40’s Fahrenheit for awhile now.

Spring will be in a few weeks now, and we’ll also be turning the clocks ahead again soon, too. I think next weekend, if I am not mistaken.
