Today's Links & Timewasters

Just a quick note...I'm heading out to pick up Maeve. But i wanted to link a couple of things here i've run across/are currently important/etc. So.

To begin with, my coffee buddy Colleen has a friend who is a lay Carmelite, and who also makes amazing digital images--mostly of biblical imagery, angels, etc., but using real people and warping/layering the images. Colleen says it starts with a scanner. She's found at Aeturnus.

Next, Good Shepherd Catechesis is taking up so much of my brain lately, I felt like I had to link to them too. I found a site of an individual Atrium, with good basic pictures, which will suffice until I take pictures of our Atrium at St. Margaret's. I start in two weeks (Maeve's birthday, I realized suddenly...I guess we'll have to put of the trip to Cairo until the next weekend. Hmm.).

A few new blogs I've started looking at. Outside the Box I'm still trying to get a handle on. I think I like reading him. Not certain. And two male knitters...Knit Like a Man, and Brooklyn Tweed, who has taken a doily pattern and knit it up in chunky yarn, thus making a big doily blanket. I'm intrigued. Must resist.

And in the category of must resist, I'm going to Rhinebeck with Annie in October. A Sheep and Wool festival. Really? How shocking.

And....I'm making my oblation this weekend. I can feel myself settling into those prayer stalls already. That's at Clyde--which is linked on the sidebar to your right. It's been a fabulous 16 month journey thus far. I'm hopeful this continues. Remember me on Sunday--during day prayer is when I take this small plunge.

I also will be going to Rhinebeck. It will be my first time there. Is this your first also?

Yes, in fact--Ann went last year and I wanted to, but just couldn't carve out the time to do it. But this time I can swing it ok...

Now that I've done some reading and have an idea what you're talking about, I'm especially impressed by the oblation bit ....
