Just far too long between posts, and being creative. Mostly doing the Dad stuff..working around the house, fixing things and enjoying a few minutes of life. Latest crazy thing for me to do, after a 54 Day Novena with a friend of mine, is the St Joseph Cloak Novena. On week three of four… For a Saint with nothing to say in the Bible I think he has a lot to tell us.

The most important lesson seems to be, don’t get in the way of God’s will. Just do it. Comply with a census law…just take your pregnant wife on a Mule trip. Protect Jesus…take a long road trip to another country. Support a family for years…with the tools your hands can get their hands on. Lose your kid in a caravan…just work the problem an don’t get mad when you find him in the temple setting people straight on God’s law. All done without needing to put his own thoughts on the record. Come to think about it, his thoughts were simply do as the Lord commands. What else is there to say?

Well this is cup still keeps working hard…one of two in the rotation. Chip and all.
