Dang it I missed it! let me know when you have more auctions.
Lastly, are you sure you want to get rid of all this stuff? Back when I first went eastward I sold all my old Roman stuff (including 2 Altar Missals as well as numerous other pieces) and now I regret it.
Many prayers for you and your journey to Holy Mother Church Michael.
I have been posting elsewhere but avoiding the blog as I tend to post personal things here, and that is the sort of thing that I have been avoiding talking about. Still, it can't all hurt. I've added a longer-than-usual post.
I didn't want to part with the Missal, Joe - it was more a case of, "I have little money, let's see what I can sell". Things are remedying themselves, though.
I am glad to hear that things are working out well! I have been in that situation myself in the past.
Fortunately, I know enough bartenders to get the hook up on drinks and being in middle management, I'm not exactly wealthy but have enough to afford a comfortable lifestyle as long I'm not overly concerned about eating solid foods, taking my allergy meds, or having gas in the car.....
Of course you know the Lord did turn the water into Wine at Cana (and good wine at that) so in a twisted sort of way, its all a tribute to the almighty (Irish style). ;)
three easy ingredients neededto make waterinto wine. Of course, when you take the flavored vodka martini mixers and freeze them, itsso awesome. a liqour smoothee! ;)
I am an Orthodox Christian and a Reader in the Diocese of Great Britain and Ireland, serving with the blessing of His Grace Archbishop Mark. I struggle along, much like most people, but I do what I can, by God's grace.
I have a love for the worship of the Orthodox Church - both eastern and western - and long for the day when we have a local Orthodox Church in Britain, giving a single voice and witness of the ancient Faith of these isles to the people of these isles, with their various backgrounds and walks of life.
This weblog is not an official site of the Russian Orthodox Church or any of its parishes or missions. The views expressed herein are solely my own except where otherwise stated, and are not necessarily representative of my diocese or parish. Any mistakes or misrepresentations are due to my own failings, for which I ask your patience and forgiveness.

You need to write more on your blog, I am bored and need cheering up. Hope your icons sold well.
Cheers,

Another clamour adding to those calling for more posts

Thanks for your encouragement, everyone!

Joe, good on you! It's always good to know people in the right places, and behind the bar would definitely count as one of the right places. :-D
Ian, you flatter me so. Yes, I'm still here and you're right, I should post more. I'll see if I can get the cogs turning. ;-)

Indeed it is Michael, indeed it is.

Well this is true. I'm rather good at turning wine into water, but I haven't quite managed the other way round yet.
Still working on it, though. More bergamot oil, methinks.
