Same with me, don't go to church enough to have a legit beef about it except that it is very sentimental and makes me sad that my kids won't be able to see the church in which their parents got married. <em>Nola Mom's last blog post..<a href='http://nolamom.blogspot.com/2008/04/picture-perfect.html' rel="nofollow">Picture perfect</a></em> We got married at our Lady of Good Counsel around the corner from St. Henry’s.

I thought I was the only one falling off the deep end lately. 2. Don't buy clothes for Sun, inherit from SoMo. 3. Just so you know, I haven't slept through the night in 5 years. Prepare yourself. Screw all methods. Put Sun in your bed and be done with it. She won't stay there forever. Dr. Spock approves of co-sleeping. It is the only way I get any sleep! 4. Catholic churches in Ohio have been doing this for quite a few years now. The church we held my grandma's memorial service used to be the biggest in that area. Now, it also priest shares. So, can you tell I am not myself by these comments? 1. I thought I was the only one falling off the deep end lately.

I think the church my sister got married in is closing. It's where my grandparents got married too. So sad to see something that's been around so long come to an end. :( BOO!

You'll never believe me right now, but there will come a time that you'll miss the times you were able to hold her in absolute quiet, just the two of you, and the world sat still. Good luck with the funk too! I hope tomorrow is a sunshine day in all senses of the word! Good luck with the night feeding!

Our church is becoming one that shares a pastor. We don't have many asses in the seat, are down to one mass on Sundays and we are barely making payments on our debts. I was very surprised that we will still remain open. I thought for sure that we would be one of the churches closed. So, I have a little more confidence that it is not just a money issue. Our priest has been talking about the shortage of priests well before Katrina. He has made the comment that many priests are getting older and there are less students to replace them. They are, also, asking the congregation to step up and become more involved in the church. I briefly heard on the NEWS that the same thing happened in Boston, recently. I do think that money has a part, but I, also, believe that the shortage of priest is a bigger issue. There was mention of the large settlement paid out to victims of molestion at the hands of priest (Boston). I am not sure if that has affected or happened in N.O., as well. As for the clothes, I spend what I do on my children's clothes because they do last long. My daughter is still wearing some clothes from 2 seasons ago and she has been this way to an extent since she was born. I look for quality. I understand that not every child can do this, but not everyone is in it for the status and I like the clothes at that particular store. Especially, since my daugther has taken to wearing mostly her Target and sounvenir t-shirts to school these days. I don’t know. Our church is becoming one that shares a pastor.

It doesn't seem right for some reason. I hope you get out of the funk soon. I am feeling some of those blues right now....don't want to be back in the real world.

I remember removing that that night time feeding. It's so hard on everyone. Glad you went back to the mall to set it all straight. I never understand how parents spent a fortune on clothes that may often last a few weeks. Hope the weather and all that blooms around you pulls you out of this soon *hugs* So sorry to hear.
