Well, I did it...

I met my friend Jennifer at the church on Friday afternoon so I could go to confession. Jennifer watched Joshua in the playground for me. I did not get the Act of Contrition memorized, but I wrote it down on a little piece of paper and brought it with me. Of course I thought that Monsignor wouldn't see me reading it in the confessional, but with my luck we did not use the confessional because they were setting up tables in the church for the fish fry. So out to Mary's garden we went. It wasn't nearly as scary as I thought it was going to be but it was exhausting! I felt so drained afterwards that I just wanted to go home and take a nap. I hope to make it a regular habit now.
