Saturday, Eve of Regional Saints Day

My new small icon of the Theotokos.

A gift for going to the baptism

last Saturday.

*

I've been having severe insomnia

from the medicine I have to be on.

That and the medicine,

which I have another week or so on,

makes me feel really unwell.

*

I have been unable to do any more interview planning

but I just can't worry about it.

*

I am blessed merely by knowing that we have a

merciful heavenly Father

and that all is in His hands.

Birds, Cleo and Daily Life

The birds were back today!

Just two this time...

Cleo turns into this little huntress!

It is so funny and a bit surprising to hear her nearly

growl at the birds!

I am looking forward to Lent.

Am praying that this Lent can be a source of healing

for all of us!

I will be blogging during Lent

and keeping up with my fellow Orthodox bloggers

who are still blogging.

But my other fun blogs,

due to French class demands

and scaling back for Lent

I have already been hitting 'read all'

to get rid of all the other blog posts that are in my

Google Reader.

***

French quiz this Tuesday.

Slight bump today RE: tenant.

Have been a bit anxious.

But that is what Lent is about.

Healing from those things,

like anxiety

that seek to entangle.

May God help us all.
