Third Week of Advent

Greetings on this third week of Advent. It's hard to believe we are already on the third week because I've been in a different church or at a different event every week so far--started in New York, I was at St. Pius last week and I was at Trinity and St. Johns this week.

I went to a writers workshop yesterday which turned out to be a great experience. We were given different topics to write a sentence with and then invited to share. One of the themes was medicine and the sentence I came up with was "Medicine heals what forgiveness cannot." The director of the workshop told me he thought a 747 had come through the room at the effect of the quote and actually wrote it in his notebook I think. I wasn't sure where that line came from. But I could probably spend some time reflecting on it.

Today has been super busy. Started at Trinity Episcopal playing and singing Advent Carols and Lessons, saw my stepsister sing Christmas carols, went to an open house for a nun who turns 80 today, and am killing a little time before going to sing and play flute for a Christmas program at St. Pius.

So maybe it's not so hard to believe it is the third week already...I have been flying through the rest of the weeks. I have to make sure I'm done Christmas shopping one of these days!

How do I prepare for the next bunch of weeks? Christmas will be here before I know it.
