passionheart Posted January 9, 2007 Author Posted January 9, 2007 [size=6]8 days to go[/size] My last day of work. I was given a nice farewell with some goodies!!!! I am glad to close this door and move on to the next!! As for the veils Brandee is correct about the veil but I have to admit I don't know too much about the private retreats.
passionheart Posted January 9, 2007 Author Posted January 9, 2007 (edited) [size=5]Ahh 7 days to go[/size] What interesting day. I was able to have lunch with some of the Grey Sisters of the Immaculate Conception. They were my teachers in senior high school. These women have been my friends and have helped me in the past. God has truly blessed me with good role models. Tonight, as I look around the mess of my room, I will leave it for tomorrow. I am watching movies tonight and laying about : Edited January 9, 2007 by passionheart
