It's nice to see everyone checking in. The AV was loud again last night, but didn't win. Went to a great Mass this morning. Kinda "filled" my spiritual tank, which I will need for the upcoming week and weekend. I will be traveling to the U.S. West Coast for a conference towards the end of the week, and I get to see my son! He is in University, but is off for a few months to complete a co-op at...of all places...a winery. It's so ironic. My drink of choice throughout the years has been wine. Now my son is of legal drinking age, is working at a winery, I am about to visit him, and I haven't told him yet that I'm not drinking. I think I will give him a heads up today. In addition, I know the people attending the conference well, and they are drinkers. They like to order very fine wine to share at dinner. I've done "no drinking" around this group in the past and it is hard, but doable.
So maybe this is why my AV has been so terrible lately? Ya think????
