As I was making my final pit stop in the bathroom last night a little after midnight, I had my final brainstorm of how to get where I needed to be to put this thing to bed. Whew. Jotted it down on paper and tried to go to bed. That's hard to do with a nagging, tickling thing in your throat. Did you know that without chewing it a Halls cough drop can stay in your mouth for over 3 hours 45 minutes? I put one in at 1:00 a.m., and when I woke up at 4:45 a.m. it was still there - - smaller, of course, but still there. Amazing.<BR/><BR/>Anyway, I typed up my mostly concluding thoughts just now. I need to wrap up a few loose ends, then I might even go back to bed until the kids force me to wake up for good.<BR/><BR/>God bless!Stephanie Anthony/She Revhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10089531643725874239noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14710344.post-77254484800257716982008-02-10T05:13:00.000-05:002008-02-10T05:13:00.000-05:00Leanne, you are not alone.

My best college friends were all Catholic, very Catholic and relatively unfamiliar with the idea of women clergy. It was very strange for them to think that a woman they knew (and a not very well-behaved one at that) might become a "Rev". The title was just male to them. One very close friend, however, had a neighbor whose daughter had become Methodist (I think) minister at some point several years before. They had some cutesy name/title combo for her that helped them get used to it, and so, similarly, I was dubbed She Rev like a superhero! It totally outs my 80s childhood!Stephanie Anthony/She Revhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10089531643725874239noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14710344.post-91726537076991628902008-02-10T00:57:00.000-05:002008-02-10T00:57:00.000-05:00I'm still here, but hopefully wrapping up somethin...I'm still here, but hopefully wrapping up something soon. This is such a different style for me that it's really a struggle. I can see this is going to be a tough Lent. I'm preaching psalms each of the 5 weeks before Holy Week, and it is very difficult for me since I usually really dive in deep to characters and plot and things like that.<BR/><BR/>These psalm sermons might end up being a little more of "how to" than I usually preach, and that's so hard for me to do. This week, at least, seems to have a "character" with which to identify, but I don't have the time to really work with that because of the extended video metaphor of restoration I am using.<BR/><BR/>I don't know. This is just a very different process with new challenges than I usually face. It's interesting. I guess it's the Lenten discipline I didn't know I would find - - or didn't even know I was looking for.<BR/><BR/>I think I'm at a "wrap it up for tonight" point. I'm nervous to try to go to bed in case the baby wakes up and needs me longer than I will be able to give, but I think that's the risk I'm going to take. I think I want to sleep on this all for now, and get up in 4 or 5 hours to wrap it up. I'm pretty close to being done.Stephanie Anthony/She Revhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10089531643725874239noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14710344.post-26370072037629981992008-02-10T00:47:00.000-05:002008-02-10T00:47:00.000-05:00I'm headed for bed.
