cmotherofpirl Posted January 6, 2005 Posted January 6, 2005 Lent starts Feb 9th. I hate to start learning Lenten songs in choir while I still have my Christmas tree up.
karin Posted January 6, 2005 Posted January 6, 2005 YAY!!! youknow why because this year my birthday wont be in lent!!!!!! Last year it was on good friday. how are you supposed to celebrate on good friday???
Andrea348 Posted January 6, 2005 Posted January 6, 2005 my birthday is ALWAYS in lent it seems....my birthday is even known to fall on ash wednesday every couple of years.....blah.....nothing like a day of fasting on your birthday....
homeschoolmom Posted January 6, 2005 Posted January 6, 2005 My daughter's birthday won't be during Lent this year either... It was kinda weird. She'd celebrated two Easters before celebrating a birthday. She was born during Easter week (Tuesday) so her first Easter, she was five days old. The following year, Easter was in March before her birthday.
karin Posted January 6, 2005 Posted January 6, 2005 yeah my birthday is always in lent forver unless lent ends early hehehe
cmotherofpirl Posted January 6, 2005 Author Posted January 6, 2005 (edited) My birthday is always in Lent, but I provide a lenten household exemption for pecan pie. Edited January 6, 2005 by cmotherofpirl
Sojourner Posted January 6, 2005 Posted January 6, 2005 I like Lent being early. It gives meaning to an otherwise forgettable month.
Andrea348 Posted January 6, 2005 Posted January 6, 2005 the best part about lent being early for me is that it means i get to spend the whole easter season at my newman center which means lots of gloria's to sing and fun music....yay! we'll be in school even for ascension thursday....yahoo!!!!
Lil Red Posted January 6, 2005 Posted January 6, 2005 one year i got a ticket for speeding on good friday...the reason i was speeding? i was late for good friday mass and i was a block away from the church
Kilroy the Ninja Posted January 6, 2005 Posted January 6, 2005 My wedding anniversary is during Lent this year! How odd! The whole reason we got married in February rather than March (was supposed to be on St. Patrick's day) was because of Lent. Hmmmm
Lil Red Posted January 6, 2005 Posted January 6, 2005 my wedding anniversary is a week and a day beforehand...whew!
cmotherofpirl Posted January 6, 2005 Author Posted January 6, 2005 You can always celebrate on a Sunday - they are not part of Lent.
Tony Posted January 6, 2005 Posted January 6, 2005 eeks I have to think of something to "give up"... fast lol an early lent has its pros and cons.. hope its not snowing Easter day though
Noel's angel Posted January 6, 2005 Posted January 6, 2005 i was born on Good Friday. this year for Lent, i am going to give up listening to SIMON AND GARFUNKEL. itll be tough. i also have to 'go on' something, if u know what i mean
BullnaChinaShop Posted January 6, 2005 Posted January 6, 2005 My birthday is in late April so it is always during Easter.
curtins Posted January 6, 2005 Posted January 6, 2005 i like the early lent cuz it feels like spring is here sooner and plus lent rocks
