7 Quick Takes...Friday?


1.  I was going to say, "How is it Friday again already?"  But it's not actually Friday yet.

2.  It is however, finally hot here.  But not nearly as hot as it could be.  That may explain the change in term from "global warming" to "climate change".

3. I'm going to my mom's house tomorrow with my sister to help her move stuff.  Who is the patron saint of sweating, middle aged women? 

4.  To do this, I'm going to be on the road at 5:30am.  Who knows when I'll get back.  Who is the patron saint of caffeine?  How about driving in the dark?

5.  We are taking our mom to the dentist in the midst of this tomorrow.  I feel very blessed that she is being cared for so well now. 

6.  I had to buy another water bottle today.  The one I had, cracked after about a week of use.  This one is aluminum, which is supposed to be bad for you.  But it doesn't have BPA's, which are also supposed to be bad for you.

7.  I got headphones for my laptop yesterday.  They have volume control.  I actually got them for a job I may be doing, but they are handy for talking to my son on Skype.

  1. 1. Yes, you are right. It is currently Thursday.

    2. It is hot here too. Feels like a sauna.

    3. The best I could come up with is St. Joseph, the Patron Saint of Workers. I think this qualifies.

    4. The Patron Saint of drivers is St. Fiacre. There are lots of Patron Saints of Travelers: St. Joseph, St. Anthony of Padua, St. Nicholas, Raphael. Driving in the dark, I’d call on St. Lucy for vision issues.

    5. The Patron Saint of Dentists: St. Apollonia. Of course, Raphael is always good for any medical issue.

    6. I have aluminum one too. It’s great.

    7. The Patron Saint of Computers: St. Isidore of Seville. The Patron Saint of Communication: Gabriel.

    I tried to come up with a Patron Saint for each number, but just couldn't do it. LOL

  2. It sounds like St. Joseph is the guy for the day, then! Especially since our goal is to put the house on the market.

    Glad you like your water bottle. I know mine won't crack, at least!

    Wow, thanks for looking up all those patron saints for me!!
