  • Hi all, just a quick check-in before I call it a night. Will give an update later today (Tuesday).
  • My blessing today is knowing I'm one day closer to my surgery, and the MRI done for it showed that the bone is healthy and viable (not necrotic). Will give you the story in a separate post. :-)
  • I use mostly my PS3, as my laptop uses a Celeron processor (long story). There are some games I play online via PC that aren't graphics-heavy, pretty much just builder games (no, no Zynga games. Period), and one MMO.
  • Act of Faith / Actus Fidei O my God! I firmly believe that Thou art one God in three Divine persons, Father, Son, and Holy Ghost; I believe that Thy Divine Son became man, and died for our sins, and that he will come to, judge the living and the dead. I believe these and all the truths which the Holy Catholic Church…
  • Thank you! I will review the list to see what I can faithfully do. :-)
  • I had hoped to find a good, reliable photo of St. Mochta, but because he was around at the time of St. Patrick, he's one of those more obscure saints that we don't have any for. I will keep my eyes open, as you never know when one will crop up. I also have a couple of sources I am going to e-mail and see if they have one…
  • I usually listen to one of two nature sounds CDs I have, as I find they help me most when I need to still my mind. One is a thundering rainstorm (with minimal music added), as thunderstorms are very soothing to me (barring the occasional scare-the-crap-out-of-you thunderclap). The other is just ocean waves crashing on the…
  • Oh wow, I missed hearing about this! Can you post a link here, perhaps we can draw others and have several accountability buddies? Thanks! :-)
  • I will be honest. I have never liked this part of the Novus Ordo, because so few people treat it with any degree of sincerity. This is not to belittle the fist-bump the priests did, as I'm certain they meant it, and a heartwarming chuckle isn't so bad (compared to being stuck in a pew behind or front of a couple of people…
  • Today is my beloved husband's birthday. He is still with me, taking the "in sickness and in health" to his core. I am truly blessed to have this man in my life today, and I am grateful daily for this. And our three kitties. :-)
  • ::laughing:: Yes, me, all the time. Even when I'm playing games, I'll three or more going on at once, and not all passive.
  • Prayer After Meals / Agimus tibi gratias We give Thee thanks for all Thy benefits, O Almighty God, Who livest and reignest forever. And may the souls of the faithful departed, through the mercy of God, rest in peace. Amen. Latin Version: Agimus tibi gratias Agimus tibi gratias, omnipotens Deus, pro universis beneficiis…
  • Prayer Before Meals / Benedic, Domine Bless us, O Lord, and these Thy gifts which we are about to receive from Thy bounty, through Christ, Our Lord, amen. Latin Version: Benedic, Domine Benedic, Domine, nos et haec tua dona quae de tua largitate sumus sumpturi. Per Christum Dominum nostrum. Amen.
  • Glad to help. There's so much there to discover, I'm still finding new stuff even after 8 years of using it.
  • Yes, I saw her too. Maybe we could add both? That way if any men wish to join the group, they have the option of a male patron instead of it always being a woman (that's my passive observation on any Christian group, they tend to focus on the women and kinda leave the men out. especially when it comes to weight loss and…
  • fisheaters.com/beingcatholic.html It's my go-to site for learning about how my grandparents lived a Catholic life. Also, traditio.com/cal.htm has the traditional liturgical calendar for the entire year.
  • I see you have a black kitty! We have 3 cats in total, 1 boy and 2 girls, and both girls are all-black. They serve as emotional support animals for me as well, as I have PTSD and sleep issues as a direct result of it. At the moment I'm just sticking to knitting projects, as they don't require me to have a table or a lap…
  • My gaming budget is limited, so I get most of my games through my PS+ subscription, which means they are older games. So, I'm trophy hunting in POP:The Forgotten Sands (only 2 left), Dragon Age: Origins, the DLC and Awakenings, and finally working my way through Uncharted 3. Hopefully I'll complete enough surveys to earn…
  • PSN - RedLeopardQueen Second Life - RedLeopardQueen Elevenar - Zelle Larentia Grepolis - Zelle Larentia I have a Steam account but don't use it much because my laptop isn't meant for gaming on. When that gets rectified, I'll let you know. Just make sure you if send a friend request, you tell me that you're from MFP,…
  • Who are you! - I go by either Katje Voo or Zelle Larentia, depending on the game. Age? - 48 Female or male? - female RP? Yes LARP? Nope. What are your weightloss goals?! To be in less pain so I can do more RL things. How many pounds have you lost? Just getting started Walk on the Beach? I live in the desert, so no, no…
  • I intend to try some fasting this year, based on the traditional Catholic calendar (I can provide a link if you like), and use part of that time to do some internal examination of conscience. Not so much from a penitential point of view, but more of a "How can I grow myself while I shrink myself", if that makes sense. By…
  • The first game that truly made me a gamer was "Bayonetta" on the Sony PS3. PAIN was (and still is) a big favorite, as is "Tomb Raider", "Dragon Age:Origins and Awakening", "Prince of Persia: The Forgotten Sands" and many others. The very first game system I had (or rather shared with my siblings) was the Sears analog of…
