There Is No Wealth But Life

For the internet. My computer is having internet issues. I can use Josh’s, but since he actually works on his, my time is limited. This has made me aware of how nice it is to have constant internet access, as well as more aware of my priorities with limited access.

For a Catholic neighborhood. As the time nears for us to move I find myself thinking of what I will miss about this area. The abundance of statues within walking distance is an odd, but tremendous blessing. I would trade it quite happily for perpetual adoration, but it has at least enabled me to develop devotions to Saints I have previously ignored.

For a husband who exemplifies gratitude rather than finickiness. He was overjoyed a few days ago when I made spaghetti for supper. It was the cheapest possible, with none of the usual vegetables in the sauce, but rather than questioning the quality he was simply happy to have it. And then yesterday I used up long-expired wraps. I thought it was safe since I re-cooked them, but the taste… Josh said he appreciated the added sourdough flavor. And he was not trying to be kind.
