The Great Emptying of our house worked out as a wonderful excuse to be at St. Tom's for Palm Sunday.
We miss the quality of the liturgy there and the people but don't realize how hungry we are for it until the time comes that we actually walk back in the doors.
It's like suddenly filling up with something necessary that you didn't even quite realize you were missing. You knew something wasn't quite right, but you couldn't quite nail it until you found it again.
We worked hard on the house and came home with a truck full of things we are keeping. A couple of trips were made to the local Goodwill drop-off and I imagine many more will follow next week. We foisted off a box of stuff on Haylee's mother and have piles throughout the house:
Ohio
Goodwill
Girls
Daycare kids
We have a lot more stuff than we were willing to admit.
It will be a busy time this coming week as we celebrate the Triduum and work to get the house ready in between church visits.
