Mood:  energetic

I just moved into a new house.  There are seven other Sisters living here at the moment, but one of them will be leaving pretty soon to go downtown where the Sisters of Notre Dame are opening an Urban Education Center.

Living with so many people is going to be interesting,but I'll get used to it, hopefully.  The house where I came from there were only three of us and a dog.  I'll miss those Sisters and that place, but this new place seems to be an adventure so far.  Lots of new personalities to get used to.  The recreation of choice seems to be dominoes around here.  Some of the Sisters also like to go on walks.  I even was able to get a game of Apples to Apples in there too!

A few weeks ago, I got to travel with my director to Detroit to witness the entrance ceremony of my friend Renee (into the Sisters of Mercy).  She had some really symbolic things in her ceremony.  I really liked when she stood outside of the chapel and knocked on the door to be let in.   She also had the symbol of a dance in there too. (One of the readings was one of Catherine McAuley's letters that talked compared religious life to a dance).
