A very full Sunday
Well, for me anyway.
Nov 1 was All Souls/Saints Day, the traditional beginning of the church year. I attended services at Cathedral of Hope UCC (calling mrdreamjeans while on the drive into Dallas) as I have done for years. This will mark my annual return to church. I attend every year from today through Easter Sunday, sometimes through Pentecost Sunday. It depends.

The rest of the year I take off - not very dedicated to the organized Church, but I keep my connections during this time...

It was an adventure at one point when I was standing in a field at one point and found I was standing on a fire ant mound and had them swarming up my leg. Thank god no one was driving by to see me rip my pants off to get the ants off me, especially since I was going commando at the time.
