So what's been going on lately?
Over the season of Lent, I had been posting Scriptural and Patristic quotes from the Liturgy of the Hours, but I somehow misplaced my prayer book and haven't found it yet. I'm hoping I can find Volume Two and resume sharing some tidbits for Ordinary Time, which begins the day after Pentecost, which this year coincides with the Memorial Day weekend.
Back in high school and college, I had studied Judo and Karate, attaining a brown belt in Judo and a blue belt in Fred Villari's Karate school. After a long hiatus, I have started taking Karate again, starting over fresh with American Kenpo Karate. Hopefully I'll be testing for yellow belt next Wednesday.
While I was working out with a buddy, I broke a blood vessel in my leg and had a nasty looking hematoma, about the size of half a baseball. It's slowly shrinking and most of the bruise color had gone away. It doesn't hurt anymore. I took some time off karate, but I just started up again and I feel good about it.
I also had a 3 cm growth taken out of my left cheek and lower gum. It was a benign lipoma, but I'm glad to be rid of it.
I can't talk a lot about work and financial stuff, but after 13 months of things not going well, I'm feeling hopeful again, finally on a path to a better future. Thanks to all of you for your prayers and support.
I look forward to posting some more soon, with an attitude of gratitude.
