Corpus Christi Procession and Memorial Day Cookout!

Today was busy and fun for the most part. It's late (not quite late, late, but pretty late) and I'm kind of tired. I went to the 12.30 Mass, and the Corpus Christi procession- I wish I had pictures of it, it was really cool! All the townies stared and we had a good time processing, except for not being able to hear the choir. They really should have been dispersed throughout the crowd instead of all at the front. But it was really great anyway. And then Mom called during benediction. I had turned off the ringer for the procession, but like an idiot I turned it back on again when we got back to St. J's. Oh well. So I wanted to make sure the house hadn't burned down in my absence and returned her call. I talked to her for less than two minutes but it was sufficient to take away (nearly) all peace of mind and happiness that I had only a few minutes prior. I need to work on that. I know I do. It's just incredibly frustrating that such a short conversation can be so upsetting...

Oh well.

Coffee and icecream was just what I needed after that conversation and I had both- with caramel! Much happiness! Then we headed back and lots of other things happened, which I shall recount tomorrow.

There was a lot of other people complaining about jobs/coworkers and I must admit I did my best not to listen too hard in those parts... A few more people have said they'll pray for me and at least one person is going to see if they can find someone who has a job that they'd give me. Still need to email the lady in Colorado again. And contact my loan company first thing on Tuesday to see what things they'll allow me to defer payment for.
