Week 5 during a Pandemic
If you know me, you know that to disconnect from my school work is hard. Yet, I did. Boundaries, right? I need balance. I met virtually with a colleague to make sure all concerns were addressed and assessed. I enjoyed a Seder meal with family. I shut down my computer, Chromebook, and laptop last Tuesday evening after addressing all turned in work. I literally packed them away. Out of sight and out of temptation. Wednesday dawned with a virtual prayer group meeting, our second as a group. It was good. As a family, we had a holier week than we had had in a while: a family Seder, Holy Thursday virtual services, Good Friday with a family watching of The Passion and the Divine Mercy Novena begun, Saturday evening bunny gifts, and Easter Mass. All without the fuss of public expectation. Simple, humble adoration. Easter dinner was a simple home-cooked meal. The best kind with all the nuclear family at home. Missing extended family was looped in via FaceTime. Monday
