I faced a pleasant dilemma yesterday. My son has purchased and set up a router, replacing the oddly-malfunctioning one. That gives me access to ‘Catholic Citizen’s’ website.<\/p>\n

I could go back to my ‘Friday and Sunday posts’ writing routine. I enjoy that process, but I also enjoy having more unstructured time.<\/p>\n

“American by Birth, Catholic by Choice” is the working title. My current intention is looking at why I thought becoming a Catholic made sense. I’ve already wandered into Macedonian, Roman and Byzantine history, so where I end up is anyone’s guess.<\/p>\n
