LENT - There are people walking around with crosses on their foreheads!

[cellboy]

One of the worst things about growing up Catholic was Lent. We had to go to church, and have a cross marked with ashes on our foreheads. Then walk around all day looking silly! (I used to wash it off immediately before going to school). Yes. I guess I was a bad Catholic! LOL!
I am noticing some adults running around town with a cross on their foreheads. LOL!

Ash Wednesday...

I guess I am a bad Catholic too. I didn't even go to the Church today. However whilst in Pittsburgh for a doctor's appointment, I saw quite a few people with the Cross.

On a side note, how have you been? I get so caught up, I forget to blog. BAD BARRY, right? I will have to make a better effort to blog at least weekly.

Well my mom became more liberal as I grew up, so going to church was not so important later in life. Glad to see you back (I commented on your post). :)
