I began the morning with Mass, then went to a brunch with the Handmaids in the Heart of Jesus -- they're the best! After that, I worked for most of the rest of the day on my Music History paper, though I don't have nearly as much to show for it as I'd like (I was on a kind-of-successful search for a thesis). However, I did manage to finish the pink candle for the Advent wreath, so it is now complete:
(Do you like the plate of rose petals in the middle? They were just too pretty to throw away... :))
Also, at the beginning of the year, Amanda (et al.?) expressed a desire to know if the banners on each side of the sanctuary in the chapel are different colors during the different seasons of the liturgical year, and the answer is "yes":
(They were green before. :))
This evening, Hannah and I made banana bread and talked poetry. Did you know that she is a poet? Neither did I, but it turns out that she has some amazing poems (well, at least one amazing one, and I'm willing to bet that the others are good as well)! She introduced me to Chesterton's poems, too.
Tomorrow is the Christmas concert! My cold is on its last legs and, I think, should be gone by tomorrow. It will be a long day, though, with a ton of people to put together on stage, so please keep the whole operation in your prayers.
St. Nicholas, pray for us!
