mortadella5553's blog post - Easter a little late

I haven't been around for a week or so, so no forums posts or blog comments, though I don't do too much anyway. Hope I didn't miss anything good.

Easter sunday was nice, went to mass, the the smart alec priest recognized me while smoozing, and gave a look to the cracks in the ceiling and said "twice in only 4 days?" I went on Holy Thursday too. The mass was very nice- 90 minutes long though. I remenber when I was a kid I could barely stand the less than an hour version. Easter they had the choir, organ, piano and 2 trumpet players- great music, and 3 dancing ladies, carying the holy wine and a couple other things to the alter. They danced all the way up and all the way back, nice.
My friends wife sings in the choir, so I got to say hello to her and their kids, he has parkinsons, and is only 52 or 53- a tough road, I have known him for 27 years. We never know how lucky we are. The rest of the day was an easter egg hunt, 3 actually, little kids, big kids and, the real kids(adults). Lots of wine , beer and food as always. We had the best weather in the last several years of Easters. I even rememberd to call family that are too far away to come. Well I called some, some called me. Good to stay connected.
I said a prayer for a special friend on Holy Thursday and Easter, fwiw coming from me, but I hope it helps. A sweet person. Anybody out there with some extra blessings laying around, send a couple my way, it couldn't hurt.

Life has always been easy for me, direction, feet on the ground etc. with a few bumps in the road, the usual stuff. Lately though its been a little harder- motivation and a broken give-a-shitter- stuff I never thought would happen to me.

I stopped losing weight, bottomed out at 189lbs and went back to 195- My friends were telling me to put some of the weight back, though I feel better at the lighter weight, they don't think i look good. WTF do they know! LOL
I am pretty wordy today- don't know why- and philosophical too. Doesn't suit me actually- I shoud quit now before I embarass myself. I haven't even had anything to drink, so no excuses like drunk typing. LOL

Thanks for looking, Mort
