Happy St. Patrick's Day!

I am wearing my green shirt, some shamrock beads and the emerald claddaugh ring I won from the local radio station a couple years ago. I have fond happy memories of St. Patrick's Day. Growing up, I always went to religious education classes, (catechism) at Holy Angels School in Globe, AZ. We were taught by nuns who were predominantly from Ireland. They were old-school and very serious and very dedicated. They were also very kind. I remember having shamrock sugar cookies and generally enjoying hearing about St. Patrick chasing out all the snakes. With fondness, I'd like to honor Sr. Paul and Sr. Carmel. They have a special place in my heart. God bless them today!

well, I am glad to find you too friend! I was on blogspot, then went to typepad and thought $4.95 times 10 months is $49.95 plus add 2 more months is alot to pay for a blog. Shannon on the CE board pays for two yikes.
Ok, well glad I saw you, you look great!
