I’m a fan of Mary Gardens. At least in theory.
When it comes to the details, though, I get a little fuzzy.
First, I have to figure out a budget for buying all those special plants. Then, I have to make the time to actually do it. And there’s sure to be more steps, and I’m sure to forget something.
It is with my own lazy streak firmly in place that I offer you these tips for a Mary Garden even I can handle.
I share my “secrets” over at Columbus Catholic Women this week.
If you’re like me, when you hear the topic of Mark Shea’s book The Work of Mercy: Being the Hands and Heart of Christ, you might wonder how it can be (a) enticing, (b) non-preachy, and maybe even (c) interesting.
The topic, you ask? The corporal and spiritual works of mercy.
My first thought, I’ll admit, was that it can all be summed up in a poster. Who needs a whole book?

I like to think I have some powers of persuasion, that I am good with words. But still, the fact remains: I have never succeeded in converting another person.A few years ago, I nearly severed a close friendship in my enthusiasm and zeal over Theology of the Body and Church teaching on contraception.
Conversion isn’t something I have any power over. I have to remind myself, sometimes hourly, that my job is that of a farmer: I plant seeds. I sow prayers.
I continue to be terrified by the call to the New Evangelization. What good can I do? I wonder if God really picked an instrument that can do any good.
Join me over at New Evangelizers for the rest.
I love how the internet and the media-that’s-not-really-”new”-anymore has opened many doors and windows in my life.I’ve made friends who are not virtual in any way, though miles may separate us. We drink our coffee via Twitter, share joys via email, follow each other’s lives via blogs. We ask for sudden prayers through texts and even call from time to time to sob and pray out loud.
There is no doubt, to me, that the digital continent is a blessing in my life.
You can read the rest at the Catholic Writers Guild blog.
I’ve been writing a weekly Tech Talk column at CatholicMom.com for a while. It’s a lot of fun, but I’ve noticed something increasingly in that time:
Lots of people have Android phones and devices.
I do not. I have iOS (Apple) stuff. I can write until I’m blue in the face about these apps (because I am nothing less than an appaholic, oh yes), but it doesn’t really help those people with Androids.
Lisa Hendey and I have been talking, and she gave me the permission to start recruiting.
So, if you’re interested, here’s what we need:
Someone who can write on at least a monthly (possibly weekly or biweekly) basis about Android apps. Tech Talk isn’t always about apps, mind you, but we want someone who can focus on Android (and neither of us can).
And while you’re there, take a peek around at the new layout!
Here at Snoring Scholar, you'll find marriage and motherhood, book talk and rambling remarks, observations and distractions, in the midst of life in rural Ohio on a farm, with kids, critters, and Catholic flair.
