just another day of Catholic pondering

This summer, I took a sabbatical from my work at the parish, and maybe it follows naturally that, now that I’m back to work, it’s time to take a sabbatical of sorts from this space.

(Pause for sobbing.)

I love it here.  Really.  I do.

But next week, things have lined up in a way that has reinforced that it’s time for me to take a break of sorts, one that’s as much a fast as anything.  I won’t be here, and though I have posts scheduled, they’re courtesy of a friend.  You’ll want to be sure to check in and see what she has to say.

I’ll be fasting from Google Reader and reading Facebook and Twitter updates too.

(Pause for deep breaths.)

So, while I might be posting some of my thoughts to Facebook and Twitter via Ping, I won’t be interacting online the way I usually do.

You’ll still be able to find my new column on Our Lady of Good Remedy at Today’s Catholic Woman on Monday, hear me on Catholic Moments, and I think read about Our Lady of Mercy at Faith & Family Live sometime next week.  I’ll probably do a round-up of posts next Saturday (I record it here as much for me as for you, really).

I’ll miss you all, but I’ll have you close to me in prayer.

Enjoy your Sunday and the rest of the week!  :)
