True, it’s Valentine’s Day. DP and I don’t observe it, because we just had our wedding anniversary on Feb. 4. However, this year I gave him a card I’d made at the church ladies’ craft event. Inside, I wrote, “Happy Ash Wednesday! I hope you have a miserable day and a penitential Lent!”
LOL! I should wish that for my Catholic friend! ;o]
Oh, yes — Ash Wednesday it is. One year, many LONG years ago, my younger sister, then about 10, promised to give up watermelon for Lent. In the middle of a cold Central Utah winter/spring. Somehow, I think she was successful!
