Phew! (and other stuff)

Final number 1 and my last "regular exam" are over. TGFT!

My mom got the new OS Bible for me - I have been looking forward to it finally being released to see the WHOLE OT. (What were they thinking - whoever 'they' are - when they decided to chuck whole books or sections? And how did they get away with that??) I am really excited to have the WHOLE thing. I started out by reading some of the intro section and the "How to Read..." section. And then the lectionary to read throughout the year. I am PSYCHED! (And I have never really been psyched about reading it, to be completely honest.)

And did anyone else get all choked up and teary on Sunday?? Is it just me, hormones, or is that kinda a normal response?

For all you voracious readers out there, I have a book recommendation from a friend - "Dialogue with the Savior" By Fr. Lev Gilet. Have not read it, but it got rave reviews from this friend. He said it changed how he viewed the NT.

Alright ... who's ready for the beach?!
