OnlySunshine Posted January 29, 2014 Posted January 29, 2014 I showed all the coats to Dad, and he wants me to get the Columbia because be trusts the brand. Alright, Dad! Which one? I posted at least 1 Columbia coat so I'm not sure which one you're referring to. ;)
the171 Posted January 29, 2014 Author Posted January 29, 2014 Which one? I posted at least 1 Columbia coat so I'm not sure which one you're referring to. ;) Oh sorry! The original one that I posted. I must not have seen that Columbia coat you posted. I'll have to look at it!
OnlySunshine Posted January 29, 2014 Posted January 29, 2014 (edited) Oh sorry! The original one that I posted. I must not have seen that Columbia coat you posted. I'll have to look at it! OK, it was one from Zappos. This one: http://www.zappos.com/columbia-carson-pass-ii-jacket-flint-grey Well, crud! They sold out of the black and now they just have grey and plum. :( Edited January 29, 2014 by MaterMisericordiae
the171 Posted February 3, 2014 Author Posted February 3, 2014 I'm getting really nervous. Not about entering, but about can I do this at all. I'm giving up so much. Can I handle that? I know that grave is offered, but cooperation with grace is key.
AveMariaPurissima Posted February 3, 2014 Posted February 3, 2014 I'm getting really nervous. Not about entering, but about can I do this at all. I'm giving up so much. Can I handle that? I know that grave is offered, but cooperation with grace is key. If it's any consolation, that's something I've struggled with a lot myself...
SilentJoy Posted February 3, 2014 Posted February 3, 2014 I'm getting really nervous. Not about entering, but about can I do this at all. I'm giving up so much. Can I handle that? I know that grave is offered, but cooperation with grace is key. You're normal and fine and you can't know what the life will really be like until you're living it, so don't torture yourself with "what-ifs." :flex:
domenica_therese Posted February 3, 2014 Posted February 3, 2014 I'm getting really nervous. Not about entering, but about can I do this at all. I'm giving up so much. Can I handle that? I know that grave is offered, but cooperation with grace is key. Amen. I think it's important to see it from the perspective that any change in state in life also comes with some degree of mourning. Like, when you become married, you aren't single before, and you can't live like you're single. There's a whole new horizon, and so many new sources of joy, but you are also, to a large degree, leaving your old self behind, and you can't continue to live as if you are single. You have to mourn the independence of single life, and then leave it behind and embrace the new.
the171 Posted February 6, 2014 Author Posted February 6, 2014 just ordered shoes. we're ordering everything by month so we're not overwhelmed last minute. it's starting to get real. it's weird how little things like this solidify this reality. haha
OnlySunshine Posted February 6, 2014 Posted February 6, 2014 just ordered shoes. we're ordering everything by month so we're not overwhelmed last minute. it's starting to get real. it's weird how little things like this solidify this reality. haha Smart idea. I don't know why anyone would wait until last minute...
domenica_therese Posted February 6, 2014 Posted February 6, 2014 Smart idea. I don't know why anyone would wait until last minute... Maybe if you don't know until last minute that you're going to join? :hehe2:
OnlySunshine Posted February 6, 2014 Posted February 6, 2014 Maybe if you don't know until last minute that you're going to join? :hehe2: Well, that I can understand but I knew someone who knew she was going to enter for a year and didn't start buying stuff until a few weeks before her entrance. I don't know if it was from lack of storage or lack of planning but that would drive me nuts to wait that long.
the171 Posted February 15, 2014 Author Posted February 15, 2014 like 189... i'm trying to avoid counting down because it takes my focus away from my current vocation, but curiosity got the best of me.
PhuturePriest Posted February 15, 2014 Posted February 15, 2014 like 189... i'm trying to avoid counting down because it takes my focus away from my current vocation, but curiosity got the best of me. Are you allowed to take Dahlia with you?
the171 Posted February 15, 2014 Author Posted February 15, 2014 Are you allowed to take Dahlia with you? no :((((((
PhuturePriest Posted February 15, 2014 Posted February 15, 2014 no :(((((( :sad: I have no idea how I'm going to survive seminary. My cat is inseparable from me. Wherever I go, she follows me, and if I'm in a room and close the door, she'll paw at the door and cry incessantly until I open it back up. My family tells me when I'm gone on trips, she wanders through the house aimlessly and gets in all sorts of trouble and havoc. It makes me feel terrible whenever I leave the house. :P
OnlySunshine Posted February 15, 2014 Posted February 15, 2014 It's going to be hard on my dog, too, when I leave to move into my own place (or, through some miracle, get accepted to religious life - you never know!). She's the family dog but she's adopted my mom and I as co-owners. She loves being near me and waits for me to come home when I'm at school. I'm the one who wanted her the most after our other dog died. I hated not having a dog in the house. She is my baby and my buddy.
