Today was a productive day:
- I went to Mass and made a holy hour afterwards. I am so pleased that my parish has perpetual adoration. This was my first daily Mass since finals week... I think last week was the longest I had gone without going to Mass-- Sunday to Sunday.
- I wrote my "thank-you" letter to my donor. And then wrote a letter to my friend in the VA Poor Clares. This is saying something, because I'm bad at writing letters. Tomorrow I hope to write to my other friend in the Poor Clares (in CA).
- Unpacked my suitcases. Finally. Cleaned out my dresser to make room for the clothes I actually wear. All that good stuff.
- Cleaned my bathroom... which hasn't been cleaned in ages. It was disgusting.
- Mopped my parents' bathroom since I already had the mop out.
- Went to dinner with two old friends.
- Thought I was going to my high school's band concert, but apparently it's tomorrow night, not tonight.
- Purchased two books from Amazon: The Professor's Wife by Willa Cather. It's a novel that one of my philosophy professors recommended to me. I'm looking forward to a good novel! I also bought Natura Pura by Fr. Stephen Long, OP. I've been extremely interested in the discussion about nature and grace between the different Thomists. It was an expensive book ($52!!!!) and I feel slightly guilty making the purchase considering circumstances... but a good friend of mine, an excellent Thomist, highly recommended it to me. Said that it was well worth the money. And probably something I'll add to the convent library anyways. So, that said, I'm really excited about it!!
Now I'm about to play some "DDR" on the Wii with my mom. Tomorrow's plan... Mass, holy hour, make some more progress on my room, and study Perfectae Caritatis. And probably a bike ride somewhere in there as well. Oh! And the band concert! Another good day.
