Milo, my therapy dog.

I have been having terrible anxiety for the past couple weeks. The rosary seems to be helping, sticking a bead between the burdens before they have a chance to turn into Grant's Tomb. Anyway, I was knitting using a ravelry pattern this President's Day when I was off work, hanging out with my parents, and trying to chill, listening to Hildegard of Bingen (she calms me down, too), when Milo completely spontaneously climbed right onto my lap. All 105 lbs of his calm, loving weight. Because a dog knows what God knows: the only thing that is real is now. And when there's 105 lbs of warm furriness on your lap, all you can do is live in the now anyway, because you're certainly not going anywhere.



Hope everyone's Lent is off to a good, fruitful start.

Peace and love,

My James Brown

Okay, cannot stop watching this. If you haven't seen it, watch it! It is awesome - there is still fun and creativity in the popular music industry. My faith is restored.
