I am in a sad spot where all my pals went inactive except for two. Need a new set of supportive pals. Feel free to add me as I try this get fit thing again. I am in TEXAS.

I don't typically have a set time for prayer in my day. Many times I pray while I do something that I hate to do (i.e. housework of all kinds). I do this for my family, but when I do it for God it is so much easier. It makes it seem like such a small task. I also spend my conversation time with God while I am working out.…

Patience is the companion of wisdom. --Saint Augustine

I am 37! Add me, I need positive motivated fitness pals.

Thanks for sharing that with us. I am so pleased to read she has peace in her life now.

I agree. It is courageous. I also think it shows a great deal of humility to give the position to someone who can effectively serve. It is nice to know that he has our spiritual well being at heart and not titles and fame as a motivation. Pope JPII hung in there to his death and showed us how to push through to the very…

I am a 5'4" fat girl and I go up and down between 165 and 175 almost monthly. ;0) I would like to chime in a bit too! Yes, smaller goals. Every week I shoot for 1# and I get a couple of ounces off. It took me a long time to get fat, I expect it will take a long time to get slim. Actually this year I am shooting for 2# a…

This was my sandwich. Thought I would contribute to a post for a change. ;o)

Please tell me how to make this. I swear my mouth watered when I saw the pineapple salad. :O) Thanks, Mickey

Yes, our kind words are on the way too.

How WONDERFUL! Congratulations to your husband. I am celebrating for him as well! I am so happy to hear of another person joining our church! Cheers!

We also light our Advent Candles every night-- We EAT Dinner in the DARK. The kids love the season of candlelit dinners. They also each take turns lighting our candle,s which is a big deal. I love this tradition because it the only time I get the kids into a quiet mindful state about the birth of Jesus. Anyone with…

That is really messed up! I am sorry they treat you that way. People (not just us Catholics) are weird that way. We like things to be like us, we don't particularly like "different". Just keep going, do what you do. They shouldn't be judging you anyway--right? Also, I do like educating people too. ;0P

I will say that there have been days when I am alone at mass and it is nice to feel connected to others when I am praying such a powerful prayer. After all, we come to mass to pray in mass--to be one body. I don't think you have to hold hands or shake hands, if you don't want. It is so strange to me that other sects of…

It warms my heart to hear when my sisters and brothers have returned. A good marriage will have struggles and joys. It is a blessing that your relationship has experienced both and still remains intact. Welcome home!

Hi! I too am a cradle Catholic and hope to raise three Cradle Catholics! I wish I knew more Catholics Online. There is just so much negativity aimed at my beloved church that many times I stray away from online forums. I am so glad to see both men and women in this group who love the church as much as I. I just started and…

Sounds really really yummy for fall! Thanks for the idea.
