Happy Easter!


Today I ...

...am wishing you all a very Happy Easter by sharing this lovely video of the King's College Choir singing Morten Lauridsen's Magnum Mysterium with you. I was very privileged to be able to sing this beautiful piece at my choir's Spring concert last year and I can only say that to be able to sing it is an even more moving experience than listening to it is because you know that you are touching the people who are hearing it. I know, the clip is off the Kings' Christmas Eve service, but just ignore the last little bit after the song is done and you won't know the difference :o)

...went on a cleaning frenzy. I was pretty much unstoppable. I did the laundry, set up a bookcase that my mom gave me, dusted, threw a bunch of old stuff out and dusted some more.

...spoke with my Sweetheart for about three minutes. Not long, but better than nothing! He had just come out of mass with his mom and it was a long one, the Easter vigil. It's pretty much the longest mass of the year and lasts two hours and they hadn't had dinner yet so he was hungry and his mom was making dinner. He said he would call me back on Monday when he was back in Montreal and I'm hoping to see him then!

    The video is really lovely, thanks for sharing! I also got a big kick earlier in the week out of your 'wedding spoof' and passed it along myself!
