Stuffing

Reptillian

I normally don't do much for Lent, but this year I would like to.
I've never really considered the giving up food because there is so little that I am able to eat to start with.
I was looking at this prayer guide (pdf) for ideas.
Buying clothing doesn't really work to give up because I find it pretty hard to find things to fit me.
TV also is not a big one- we have now lost the CBS station, so all I have to watch that is left is Judge Judy and the Bachelor(and the Bachelor ends in 2 weeks, thankfully!)
The Internet IS a big one! I like my facebook and blogging and reading others blogs!
I had to laugh at their last one- time- fast from indulging yourself time-wise. Other than with the internet, I don't think there is anything I indulge myself with time-wise. My life feels rather sacrificial on the whole!

We got a flyer for kingston ball hockey. This seemed like something up James' alley so I looked it up online to find out when it was. For James' age group it is Monday nights. James already has gym on Monday nights, so I was going to drop it. But Myron was wanting him to do it because it will be better for his hockey skills. Um, yes, but he's 6! Either activity I think would be equally beneficial and we already committed to the gym. So I have emailed the ball hockey people to find out if there really is a conflict in the times (not sure when on Monday night the games are). So it is possible that he could do both on Mon. night. Or we could try to get the gym switched to thurs and then he would have gym and pioneers on the same night. Are we over scheduling him?
