Two Little Handmade Rosaries

 

Today was one of those no-good, very bad, horrible days for both Travalon and me. While he was at work, a kid broke his phone and another one threw a metal object and hit him with it. I was supposed to be getting ready to take a week of vacation while Anna Banana II is in town, but there were all sorts of emergency travel requests for trips in two weeks overseas. Every time I looked up from one request, there was something else. And then my belt broke, which is terrible because the only pair of jeans and pair of shorts that fit me are too big, so I need the belt. Anna Banana II had a bad day too, but she caught the train and is now in Wisconsin. 

But I did find something wonderful today: these two little handmade rosaries!

I know, just what I need, right? More rosaries! But I can wear the bracelet one, and the one-decade one is a good size for praying while walking. So that made the day a bit better. That, and a fascinating discussion of the early church fathers and Biblical archaeology. I love that stuff!

Also, a very happy birthday to Cecil Markovitch. I hope his day was better than ours!
