I enjoyed what you wrote, it opened my eyes to insights I had not considered before. I hope there’s a sequel to this, or something similar that is interesting to read. It is been a pleasure discussing this topic. https://ru-tubes.blogspot.com

Coffee??? Never. Cringing along with you, Kat.

I think that simplifying and decluttering is a great practice…for any religion.

I just talked to someone today who cleans out a room every time her husband goes out of town. I like that idea, too.

More sleep AND a nightly cocktail? Awesome Lenten observance, Michelle!

We don’t observe Lent, but we did when I was growing up. I remember feeling mildly annoyed about not being able to have a burger, but other than that I was fine. I think I’d be most cringey about cutting out coffee for the month. That would be a hard one!

I was born and raised Catholic. When my child was about 4, I decided to change religions (for reasons I won’t get into here). Therefore, I do not need to celebrate Lent. But old habits die hard. Last year, I decided to give up wine for those 40 days. I almost made it. But about 3/4 of the way through it, I said, “wait, I’m not Catholic any more, I don’t need to do Lent” and went and poured myself a double!

This is such a good idea! I’m gonna have to give it a go…First up: decrapifying my bathroom. It’s only fitting, you know.

I’m still trying to stick to my New Year’s resolutions so there’s not much left to give up for Lent. I like the idea of decrapifying though – it’s always a good time to decrapify.
