My ❤️ is at Notre Dame today. Go Irish ☘️

Sunset walks on campus have a different feel. Slower, but spectacular 🌅

Cleaning up for the big day ahead 😊 #birds

Thanks to Kelly Wahlquist and my friends at WINE: Women In the New Evangelization for the opportunity to write about Daddy today: catholicvineyard.com/index.php/20... I completely forgot I’d written this months ago. It brings back wonderful memories 😊❤️☘️

That terrifying moment when you say a quick prayer, take a deep breath, and hit “send” on the first draft of a new book project. You’d think it would get easier with experience. But I feel as though it’s even more emotionally charged with every new project I write.

New bird friends in and around Santa Barbara #birds

This #NotreDame game is stressful. #GoIrish ☘️

Just a reminder for friends who celebrate the Advent season, my devotional "5 Minute Prayers Around the Advent Wreath" (Ave Maria Press) is a quick and easy way to share time with your family. Find it online at amzn.to/4g8fDQh

My ER doc husband is working today, so plans for this Black Friday include: Editing my book manuscript Finishing a talk for a Tuesday speaking engagement Taking a long walk Backing up Evernote files so I can offload that subscription I’m being overly ambitious. What are you up to today?

Lovely Saturday morning walk with our community at the Balona Wetlands. Birds, marsh wildlife, and friends old and new. @paulistfathers.bsky.social

Ditto 😊

So the “bomb cyclone” is not a thing yet in LA. Hope everyone North of us is staying safe!

Happy to have had a sneak peek at Wicked. I’m sharing my thoughts at lisahendey.com/wicked/ Spoiler Alert: I LOVED it! #WickedMovie #wicked #teamelphaba

What it looks like when this Southern Californian dreams of a “❄️ White Christmas ❄️”

The “Little Man of Disneyland”—Patrick Begorra—has his house all decorated for Christmas 🎄 #Disney #Disneyland

Peace on Earth ✌️ #disneyland #disney #itsasmallworld

Some of my greatest dreams have come true this way. Great advice!

Thanks @jonmsweeney.bsky.social for the mini retreat! Lovely and needed 😊

For now, I’m trying to follow everyone who follows me here. (Except the Jesus profile. I follow the real one). I’m going need to start organizing it all somehow but for now it’s just a beautiful blend of voices!

Seen and heard along today’s walk. I’m so grateful to live close to UCLA, where every day is filled with sites and sounds that keep my walks interesting and fresh. Where is your favorite spot for walking or running? Bonus points if you know what’s in the box!!

I’m working on learning Spanish and would like to follow some Spanish language accounts here. Friends please give your suggestions if you have them 😊

I definitely recommend this must read article by @inspiredangela.bsky.social which offers beautiful insights on Nicholas Black Elk, Laudato Si’, and the connection between legacy and faith. Wonderful words, Angela!

Lucky me: here for a screening of #WickedMovie!!

Dear @begojohnson.bsky.social this made me think of you ✍️

My nephew plays in the @notredame.bsky.social band. Yesterday they performed with Chicago! I wish I could have been in the stadium in person. The show is on YouTube and well worth watching!! #GoIrish ☘️

People of Bluesky! Let's get to know each other better. What is your favorite movie? Quote share your answer only in GIF form.

I have this afternoon to myself (husband has ER shift). I will spend three hours at the library writing. How would you choose to spend the rest of the evening? Bonus points for #LosAngeles ideas!!

Not a boxing fan but watching #PaulTyson

I’m having serious #disneyland FOMO today

Be sure to follow @patgohn.bsky.social here for wisdom, insight, and fun 😊

Hey @franciscanmom.bsky.social I’m working on perfecting my oatmeal recipe and made a whole batch this week. Does this count as cooking? It tastes better than it looks!

Another awesome person to follow!!

Hey Disney friends. Does anyone hear solo regularly? Also interested in knowing your favorite places to do a bit of work in the middle of the fun. For me, sitting in front of the fireplace at Grand Californian is always a treat.

Agreed! @inspiredangela.bsky.social is the best!

I chose to share this image from #StorytellersCafe at #Disneyland for my profile picture. The quote from Chaucer has really stuck with me: “The life so short. The craft so long to learn.” What craft will you spend your life striving to learn? #writing

Thank you God for the gift of Trader Joe’s. Seriously. I’ve given up any hope of being a cook but I’m pretty ok at heating up things that TJs cooks for me.

Here 😊
