A dear priest friend of mine sent me the link below. It appeared on National Public Radio (NPR) on Monday and I was glad he sent it to me. There's much wisdom in what Richard Rohr said.

Yesterday evening, John, my dear priest friend and I went out for an amazing seafood dinner before going to the "Blenders" concert. They are a group of guys who hail from North Dakota and sing acapella. It seems they've been to DM a number of times but I've never been to their concert. They did a good job bringing some festive spirit at least to me. Overall, they sounded good - much better singing without any musical instruments.
Looks like it's snowing pretty hard in Colorado and I wish some of the snow would head this way. I guess that's not going to happen. I just love the snow (I blame my mom for planting that seed within me!), and it would be nice to have some snow on the ground if it's not going to snow on Christmas (looks like that's going to be the case this year. Bummer.)
The RCIA group met for the last time this semester and we watched the last two Vatican II videos. Although the video itself is a little old, the materials presented are still very much relevant even in this day and age.
Christmas is only a couple of days away and one of the best things about not having family around is that I don't have to worry about getting them presents. As long as I make the obligatory phone call wishing dad, mom and sis a Merry Christmas, it's all good. Can't get any simpler than that, right?!
That's about it from me for this evening. I'm really getting into typing on my blog which I guess is a good thing!
