Re Ms Chenoweth's Lifetime movie, why is it in fiction whenever a well-paid professional woman gets dumped by her louse spouse, boyfriend, whatever, she ends up moving to Nowhere and finding true love and satisfactory employment rather than keeping the god job and friends in Manhattan or LA, Seattle, Boston, DC, New Orleans, wherever?

Yes, it has become quite the cliché. As bad as the steely professional woman finds humanity in a small town scnario that Zellweger's NEW IN TOWN and Bullock's THE PROPOSAL share.

...and "Men in Trees" on TV.

thanks for asking td & vixmom.  yesterday morning was pretty rough, proceeded by a very painful night. so far today is much better though terribly painful.  i've decided i'm going to double my wee morning pain meds and see if that helps.  i need it the most then.

 I found when I was goingthrough my troubles that I would take a heavier dose of the pain meds about a half hour before I planned to be asleep for the evening - I was allowed to take  1 or 2 teaspoons of my pain meds at a time so during the day I would take only one level  teaspoon but at night I would take two "heaping spoonfuls" - the little bit extra made all the difference between a getting a night's sleep and spending the night awake and miserable

Well the mechanic says it looks as if my battery is kaput, and I have some leaking hosses as well - he also made some noises about the water pump -   he is going to take another look in the morning and then give me some ideas of prices

Sunday evening greetings!  We are back from Lima and this year's Middletown Civic Chorus performance of Handel's Messiah, in which my DH Richard was 20% of the bass section and didn't even get his name in the program.  Aside from the first violin, which was pretty bad, all the singers and musicians did an excellent job.

We were glad we'd driven to Lima last night and didn't have to get up at 5:30 this morning.  We were home from there in time for Richard to take a short nap before going to the warm-up before the performance.

Now that we're home for the evening, it feels like it should be about 10pm...

Tax work is under control for the weekend, although not by any means finished.

Looking forward to seeing RAGTIME today.

 I am very anxious to hear your thoughts of this production  - I have been thinking about taking the Vixter to see it (I missed it last time around )-- although I desperately want to go see South Pacific as well....

I heard singers today singing in the keys of Z flat, Q sharp and J... often simultaneously.  The musicians accompanying them played in P minor.

LOL

So Ginny - now that Richard is ordained does your home qualify as a parsonage?

Is there any hope of his getting a church to serve that is a bit closer to your home?

No football this afternoon so that AMAZING RACE FINALE should start on time tonight on the East Coast.

A story on the net says that a person saw two of the teams in NYC on Friday - so I am guessing they were the top two teams in NYC for the talk shows on Monday morning.

No, but it could probably be called a vicarage.  In this particular Anglican denomination, parishes have rectors (in which case, the house would be a rectory) and missions have vicars.  Because Holy Nativity only qualifies as a mission, Richard's the Vicar.

Probably not, because there aren't very many Anglican Province of America congregations.

Well, I bought the ready to bake cut out cookies and then frosted them.   The problem is I ate too many cookies and WAY too much frosting.  Bleh!

What is the difference betweena parish and a mission?  The size of the congregation?
