And I'm in the Salt Lake City airport , waiting for the shuttle home . It's hard coming home to no one waiting for me . Maybe this will get easier with repetition .
Jayne, your mouth is talking. You might wanna look to that.

"Faded like the lilac, he thought."
Will do, Matt.
Yeah, that's tough, Connie.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.
Be sure to give me a heads-up, I'd love to drive over for a mini f2f again.
Me too!
I'm sorry, Connie. It does get easier, eventually.

Huh, I have no memory of taking Sundays off during Lent. Not that I ever really gave up things.
Me either. I used to give up things, though. But my parents are pretty hardcore. My mother used to try to avoid meat during Lent, and they at some point also used to go to mass every day in Lent. She hasn't taken Communion in a couple of years because she missed mass one week.

That's more hardcore than Tim's dad. Wow.

I think she's getting more so as she gets older, and I wonder if her dementia is reinforcing it somehow? My dad was always the strict one about church things growing up and now he's like, "I can't convince her to go to communion."
Then again she's got nothing on her mother who made us say the rosary EVERY DAY when we were visiting, and we used to visit for a few weeks.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

I'm not Catholic, but isn't that what confession is for?

Yeah, I don't know about why she doesn't go to confession. Her church also usually does General Absolution, where you go to mass and get absolved of your sins without actually having to go to confession.
She has always disliked confession since one of our priests told her that he could see who people were through the screen.

Also, my mom 100% not on the logic train anymore, so she may have her own crazy reasons for not going to confession.
