This morning was full of wake you from sleeping thunderstorms. I had already made plans to go to St. John's for 9 am mass, which I am pretty sure was the motivation to get out of bed this morning. I wondered about all those times I worked late or babysat until two in the morning and still managed to get myself in a pew for 9 am mass. Why was it so easy then?
The drive to Hydes was filled with cows, cornfields, and overcast sky. I think St. John's has an old and new church and mass was in the new church. It is big, with seating in the round and nondescript stained glass. It was cold in there this morning. The crowd was generally older, with more school aged kids than little ones.
Music was provided by a piano and choir. I learned a new song called Sing Hey for the Carpenter. The homily was about decision making (not about obedient wives, that would have been the obvious choice.)
And this brings us to the final five. I didn't know how I would do this, and now I don't know if I want to stop.
