Things have been busy, as I mentioned in my last post. Looks like the weekend is going to be even busier...
Tonight, there is a Missa Cantata at St. Mary's, Chislehurst, for the Feast of the Presentation of Our Lady. Then tomorrow, there are the usual Saturday morning devotions (Mass, Exposition, Benediction) at Blackfen, and then there is the Latin Mass Society Annual Requiem at Westminster Cathedral... with some of us retreating to the Buckingham Arms in Petty France afterwards. And Sunday brings the usual Missa Cantata.
Not that I'm complaining, you understand...
I just might not get around to doing much in the way of blogging...
Why is it that, just when I actually have some bloggable stuff to talk about, I don't actually have time to blog...
"Truly, it is the indescribable sweetness of contemplation which you give to those who love you. In this you have shown the tenderness of your charity, that when I had no being you made me; and when I strayed away from you, you brought me back again to serve you and commanded me to love you." The Imitation of Christ

Blogging Lite...
Not only have I been extremely busy, but I've been getting home a little late each evening. As part of my rule of life involves going to bed at a reasonable hour, I have found myself having to choose between making myself something to eat and blogging. Alas, I haven't quite perfected the art of doing both at the same time, at least, not without quite a bit of my dinner ending up on the keyboard. This is not conducive to good blogging experiences, as pasta in pesto sauce does tend to make the keys a little sticky...
So, this is just to assure you that I'm still alive.
I am also in need of a kitty-picture, just to brighten my evening.

Patron Saints For 2009...
2008 is drawing to a close, which means that it's time to find out who your Patron Saint for 2009 will be. There's something rather appealing about the idea of getting a saint assigned to you by someone else, because it feels as if the saint is actually choosing you !
My patron this year was St. Peter Chrysologus. I can't wait to find out who I get next year!
Angela Messenger is kindly undertaking this mammoth task... only, precisely because it is such a mammoth task, she is imposing a closing date, which is December 1st 2008. By my reckoning, that leaves two weeks to put in a request.
Good luck.
Mantilla-twitch to Adrienne, who reminded me about the assignment of Patron Saints!
