FSM Sister Posted November 2, 2020 Share Posted November 2, 2020 Sorry - I have been off for a LONG while. I am working two jobs and I am at work Monday through Friday 7 AM - 8 PM or later. Saturdays 9 - 2 PM. By the time I get home, I am half dead. Too tired to do much of anything except say my prayers. I eat most meals at work, or in the car between jobs. Not the life I prefer... but with a job that doesn't keep up with inflation (or cuts in pay) and a mortgage that DOES keep up with inflation, there wasn't much choice.

FutureCarmeliteClaire Posted November 2, 2020 Share Posted November 2, 2020 This is WILD. Got an email about this thread and was surprised my account still existed. I joined as a young teen in 2011 for vocation station, and have since grown up, moved from the east coast to the midwest, gone to college to be a social worker, and am now happily married. So grateful for having had this community long ago which I do believe gave me a foundation for my still-growing faith. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Julie Posted November 2, 2020 Share Posted November 2, 2020 Hi all, It’s been a minute. I don’t know if anyone remembers me, but I used to frequent Vocation Station, where I was very neurotic and tied myself in many needless knots. I think I posted several times about how CONVINCED I was I was called to join this or that order, only for obstacles to arise. Anyway, I‘ve been married for five months, I earned a masters in systematic theology from Our Lady’s university. I’m very happy ministering to college students, thinking about going into counseling, and hoping to add physical motherhood to the list soon. So, I guess, I finally got that vocation thing figured out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Deb Posted November 2, 2020 Share Posted November 2, 2020 I too wandered away. I found Phatmass back in 2007 when I had a powerful conversion. I found it by accident, but really enjoyed coming here and chatting and several people I still chat with............ on FB. I come back when Dust emails to ask where I am............. I remember getting suspended once too! It was totally unfair. This was my first chat place ever and I had no idea that people did not use their real names...........

Blessed&Grateful Posted November 2, 2020 Share Posted November 2, 2020 wow, hello all. I am amazed this is still going. I was more a reader than a poster. I loved all the vocation stories. And this was/is a place I found joy in the journey of others. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
