Overall, this week was great. There were some really busy and hard days at work, but those went by quickly. There were also a couple birthday’s celebrated, a really bad storm, and lots of potty training. Let’s jump into the latest edition of my Weekly Reviews! On Monday it was Lea’s birthday. Before work, the... Continue Reading →
Sunday Gospel: John 5:1-15
Hello, happy Sunday! At that time, Jesus went up to Jerusalem. Now there is in Jerusalem by the Sheep Gate a pool, in Hebrew called Bethesda which has five porticoes. In these lay a multitude of invalids, blind, lame, paralyzed, waiting for the moving of the water; for an angel of the Lord went down... Continue Reading →
Bulls Talk: Billy Donovan, A.K., M.E. are OUT
It’s been a long time since I’ve written a Bulls Talk post and I’m in the mood to rant a bit, so a Bulls rant is what you’re all going to get on this random Saturday! Let me start by saying, so there’s no confusion and I don’t get in trouble (If they’re still using... Continue Reading →
Weekly Review 84
This week was, again, filled with precious little moments. I suppose that’s always the case when you have a little one. Every day, even every hour, they change. They grow, they learn new words and/or actions, and it surprises you every single time. Throughout the week, it was business as usual around here. However, the... Continue Reading →
Sunday Gospel: Mark 15:43-47; 16:1-8
Hello, happy Sunday! Apologies for the late post. At that time, Joseph of Arimathea, a respected member of the council, who was also himself looking for the kingdom of God, took courage and went to Pilate, and asked for the body of Jesus. And Pilate wondered if he were already dead; and summoning the centurion,... Continue Reading →

This week teased us with warm weather, only to rip it out of our hands the second we started enjoying it. It also blessed me with a wonderful day with my son, the first cut of the season, and a new nemesis (his name is Wasp). Welcome, readers! Thank you for continuing to tune in... Continue Reading →
Sunday Gospel: John 20:19-31
Hello, happy Sunday! On the evening of that day, the first day of the week, the doors being shut where the disciples were for fear of the Jews, Jesus came and stood among them and said to them, "Peace be with you." When He had said this, He showed them His hands and His side.... Continue Reading →
Weekly Review 82
Hello, readers. Christ is Risen! I hope all of all my Orthodox readers had a happy Easter. This wasn’t a bad week, but it wasn’t a great one. I received some irritating news (literally and physically). It was Holy Week for us Orthodox Christians, so we went to church more than usual. Mr. O is... Continue Reading →
Sunday Gospel: John 1:1-17
Christ is Risen! Happy Easter to my fellow Orthodox Christians. In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. He was in the beginning with God; all things were made through him, and without him was not anything made that was made. In him was life, and... Continue Reading →
Weekly Review 81
This wasn’t a typical week for us over in The Region. It was filled with lots of love and laughter (which is the norm), but we also had some unusually beautiful weather, a terrible dream and a wonderful Palm Sunday service at a church I hadn’t been to in over a decade. Welcome, all of... Continue Reading →
