[/quote] Glad to know I'm not the only weird one.
marigold Posted January 30, 2012 Posted January 30, 2012 I always wonder if Catholics have different size muscles on their legs from genuflecting. I was thinking about this when I observed the Trid Mass recently. The poor assisting priest was back and forth across the altar and every time he went past the middle he did a huge lungeing genuflect in one movement. Quite impressive. My mother had a cellist friend and his left hand was stubby and muscly from finger work on the strings, and the right hand was long and slender from holding the bow. Anybody want to examine their leg muscles for me?

i<3LSOP Posted January 31, 2012 Posted January 31, 2012 You know you're a future nun when you get three books out of the library that have the word nun in the title, and the lady checking them out asks if you are discerning.

TheresaThoma Posted January 31, 2012 Posted January 31, 2012 When you friend from out of state texts you and says that there might be a slight chance she will be moving closer to you in the next year or so. Then adds "if you haven't entered by then we should get together".

IamMyBeloveds Posted February 4, 2012 Posted February 4, 2012 When you're my age (mid-twenties) and everyone else is dreaming about and planning their weddings, you are dreaming about the day you'll be making vows...thinking about possible readings, what priests you'd love to have concelebrate, what music would be perfect...etc. And simply this too... When you are counting down the days and JUST CAN'T WAIT until entrance!!! (about 4 months for me, thank You, my Sweet Beloved Jesus!)
