That sounds right. He did say he was going to Milwaukee for Mass. It's been the best retreat I've had. I'm headed home this morning.

I'll look into it. Right now I'm using NotallyX as my Google Keep replacement.

"Eating ultra processed carbohydrates is the new smoking" --

I will surely pray for her.

Tomorrow (Thursday) evening I'm headed out to Burlington, WI, for a 4-day silent retreat. That, along with a nice lengthy drive to get there, will give me plenty of prayer time. **FREE PRAYERS FOR YOU** -- you can send me a prayer request publicly or privately, with or without anonymity -- here, in the Catholic Armada channel, or via SimpleX Chat. Let me know before tomorrow at 3:30pm Central time.

If you listen to the first 3-1/2 minutes of this video, you will become a groovier Christian. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ssHdmsghGwQ

A good morning can easily be soured by stepping in a wet spot on the floor with your socks right before you have to leave the house. 😆

If your rosaries are becoming vain repetitions, don't quit; turn them into *vested* repetitions. That is to say, use the repetition for good, as intended -- to immerse yourself in the prayers and the meditation on the mysteries. Engage not just your voice, but your mind, heart, and soul. Out of weakness and imperfection, distraction can happen. That's not a sin. That can happen with any kind of prayer. Just recognize and resist distraction, and do your best. Prayer is not always easy, but it's always necessary. 📿🙏🤲🛐

Our adult education events have included inviting a non-Catholic couple explaining tranny ideology to us (their teen daughter had her boobs chopped off and switched to the boys cross country team). They gave us handouts of the Genderbread Person and told us to go share what we've learned. This year a Catholic professor came to tell us about how the Church's "pelvic issues" are evolving. Plenty of other modernist trash, too, along with political talks in favor of illegal immigration, etc.
