    So, how many Menierians are participating in the Lenten Season?

    I spent an hour with my church to myself and got to visit all the stations, and walk the grounds, and had a Pastor administer ashes. It was a wonderful cleansing feeling.

    I was planning on it, the weather told me different.

    I don't believe you need to get ashes to participate in the Catholic rituals, God hears us wherever we are.

    LOL, come on, you can resist. Bring in some Raisins, or Celery, or Low Calorie Snack Bars.
    Keep em in your purse.
    Just substitute the candy for something healthy.
    Is Gum considered candy? Or Halls cough drops in honey or berry.
    I hope this helps.
    I gave up feeling sorry for people who don't deserve it. That was easy, and a long time coming!

    I'm not eating any.. I DO chew gum or use something when I get drug dry mouth from my meds but nothing like a yummy candy bar.

    May Your will be done in my life.
    AMEN

    Pray for us.
    Amen
