A Few Notes
Before I begin, I would like to ask for prayers for Catholic author and blogger Amy Welborn and her family. Her husband Michael, also a Catholic blogger and author, passed away suddenly yesterday, and if you can spare a few moments to pray for Amy, her husband with the Lord, and their children, I have faith it will help them through this sad time. I am including this here, rather than its own topic, out of no disrespect but because I imagine that since this blog is still very new and I think including it in a lengthier post will garner more readers than a small one on its own. I can’t profess to know Amy in any sense, but every time I’ve come across her work I’ve been glad of it. Requiesca in pace Domini, Michael.
UPDATE: Danielle Bean has set up a paypal button to collect donations. If you feel moved and are able to donate money in addition to your prayers, she has more information on her website.

Apologies for having gone quiet – I haven’t become frustrated with the blog or anything, I’ve just been busier than usual. One of my coworkers is on vacation so I’ve been covering extra hours (which will help my rather pitiful bank account and thus help keep this blog online). But I haven’t forgotten – I’ve just been too busy to figure out what to write and then to write it. But I’m here now and I’ve come up with something finally, and it will follow shortly.

Thanks to Foxfier for the bit of encouragement – I’m not bothered by the lack of comments- I hope someday to have a nice steady group of a few more but I’m grateful to any at all who read, and I hope you find it worth your read. Thanks also to Fr. Dalgleish and Eva David – I have begun watching your videos, Father, and I am adding your blog, Eva, to my RSS feed and probably a linkback soon (I need to figure out how to make the list longer). I have also found A Dish of Orts through the Guttenberg Project and hope to start reading it soon.

If anyone has ideas for posts, please feel free to email me with them. I am also glad to have guest-posts if it fits in with the general “themes” of this blog. Anyway, now to write the post (hopefully) before running off to work. Thanks to all.
