Good Morning

Happy Wednesday.  I had my coffee so I am a bit more awake.  Busy day today so I need to get out of pajamas shortly and get a move on.   

Today is the Ash Wednesday, the start of Lent.   I have thought long and hard on what to give up for lent this year.   I have decided to give up shopping.   I love to shop… My husband thinks I shop a bit too much… (well, he would know cause he gets my credit card bills..)  So I thought it would be a good thing to give up for the next 40 days.  So from now until Easter sunday I will not be buying anything that is not a necessity.  I am not even going to peruse the stores cause the temptation will be too great.. Same with being online..  Too tempting to shop there too..   So I guess for the next 40 days I will have to find some things to keep me occupied.  Plenty of projects that I can do around the house or out in the yard.  

Don’t forgot to go to church today to get your ashes.   Most churches have a morning, afternoon and evening service for this to accommodate all their parishioners.   Oh and don’t forget No meat today or on Fridays for the next 40 days.   

Time for me to get ready.   Have a wonderful day :)
