planths for thunday
August 3, 2008 4:38 AM

well, i HAD planned on getting up early to do some stuff around the house and also a little work... have the alarm set for 8:30am (we'll see if i get the gumption to arise at that hour.)

can't really sleep.

saw a sign as i was driving today - it was at the Church in Brielle.

said "Need a faith lift?" (although, my favourite is the one where it says "Welcome Son Worshippers!" - cracks me up.) but the "faith lift" play on words made me think of Henry Fonda in On Golden Pond where he says his wife's name is "Ethel Thayer, thounds like I'm lisping, don't it?" - I love that movie.

note to self: rent it. watch it.

Besides the lisping pun church sign, I was out with Fran and Jude on Friday night where they were talking about church (they're pretty darned religious. Friends from the parade committee.) and then I had another brief chat about church a little later that night. I'm guessing that, oh, that Fella Upstairs is dropping subtle hints for me to get back to church. It's been a couple of months.

Don't get me wrong, I'm not a heathen. I pray every day. Standard "Our Father" and "Hail Mary" followed by a little chat, but, I just haven't headed into an actual church... oh, maybe since March. The Parade weekend - went to St. Rose for the ceremony the day before the parade (The Investiture Mass - which is always an absolutely lovely mass followed by a luncheon at Doolan's. Big doings for the committee and all involved).

I have the alarm set for that ungawdly hour of 08:30 so I can head to St. Martha's for the 10:30am (it's the singing one. i like it. it gets packed, so for the 10:30, you really need to get there at 10 to get a seat.) --- Of course, I'm a pretty sound sleeper, so, if He wants me to get to mass, I'd like a wake-up thunderbolt at 8:45am (and also be able to fall asleep as my head touches the pillow)

ah, i may as well try to pass out again. been laying here restless.
had trouble sleeping last night as well.
