Refrigerator Strewing

On the fridge this week, for perusal and discussion.

Information on

St Januarius. ( Thanks Fr!)

Amo, amas, amat, etc - Latin. Check out this cool Latin
book.

Poem, chosen by Anthony ~ Matilda by Hillaire Belloc.

The Kumon Honour Roll, with both Jonathon and Alexander on the list. Super!

A multiplication table for Anthony.

And, finally, something extra for me - my current Turbo Jam workout rotation.

This is great!

Love how clean your fridge looks, too!

We're off to soccer, but when we get home...I might be doing just this to my fridge!; 12:24 am
Cindy said...: Fun to see your fridge, Leonie!

I agree... it is so neat and clean! But I gave up fridge envy long ago... I may have to get a picture of mine so you can see. It just collects and collects, but then I finally have to remove some stuff.

Love that poem... I got a kick out of it.

Your workout looks tough. I just got home from a double-workout... a hour of strength traning and then 45 min of cardio. Boy my heart must look pretty! :)

Thanks for sharing..; 2:08 am
Leonie said...: Maria and Cindy - I hate a lot of clutter so went through long phases of NOTHING on the fridge. We had a bulletin board !

In this house we don't - so I am trying to be judicious about what goes on the front of the firge.

On the sides of the fridge ( where people can't see) is the running shopping list and misc notes! lol!

What a great workout Cindy - one hour and 45 minutes. I just can't find the time for workouts over an hour at this stage of my life. :-( Sometimes I can only do 30 or 45 minutes...; 8:57 am
Cindy said...: Hi Leonie--

Well that Saturday workout is the day I work up at the studio which gives me free tuition! I work the desk and sign people up.. so have to be there for 2 classes. Some days I don't get both classes in as I might have a busy desk, but today I did and boy am I tired! :); 1:14 pm

Prayer of Consecration of St. Maximilian Kolbe

O Immaculata, Queen of Heaven and earth, refuge of sinners and our most loving Mother, God has willed to entrust the entire order of mercy to thee. I, N___, a repentant sinner, cast myself at thy feet humbly imploring thee to take me with all that I am and have, wholly to thyself as thy possession and property. Please make of me, of all my powers of soul and body, of my whole life, death and eternity, whatever most pleases thee. If it pleases thee, use all that I am and have without reserve, wholly to accomplish what was said of thee: "She will crush your head," and, "Thou alone have destroyed all heresies in the whole world."

Let me be a fit instrument in thine Immaculate and merciful hands for introducing and increasing the maximum in all the many strayed and indifferent souls, and thus help extend as far as possible the blessed Kingdom of the most Sacred Heart of Jesus. For wherever thou enters, one obtains the grace of conversion and growth in holiness, since it is through thy hands that all graces come to us from the most Sacred Heart of Jesus.

V. Allow me to praise thee O Sacred Virgin.
R. Give me strength against thy enemies.

Prayer of St Bonaventure

Pierce, O most Sweet Lord Jesus, my inmost soul with the most joyous and healthful wound of Thy love, with true, serene, and most holy apostolic charity, that my soul may ever languish and melt with love and longing for Thee, that it may yearn for Thee and faint for Thy courts, and long to be dissolved and to be with Thee.Grant that my soul may hunger after Thee, the bread of angels, the refreshment of holy souls, our daily and supersubstantial bread, having all sweetness and savor and every delight of taste; let my heart ever hunger after and feed upon Thee, upon whom the angels desire to look, and may my inmost soul be filled with the sweetness of Thy savor; may it ever thirst after Thee, the fountain of life, the fountain of wisdom and knowledge, the fountain of eternal light, the torrent of pleasure, the richness of the house of God.May it ever compass Thee, seek Thee, find Thee, run to Thee, attain Thee, meditate upon Thee, speak of Thee, and do all things to the praise and glory of Thy name, with humility and discretion, with love and delight, with ease and affection, and with perseverance unto the end.May Thou alone be ever my hope, my entire assurance, my riches, my delight, my pleasure, my joy, my rest and tranquility, my peace, my sweetness, my fragrance, my sweet savor, my food, my refreshment, my refuge, my help, my wisdom, my portion, my possession and my treasure, in whom may my mind and my heart be fixed and firmly rooted immovably henceforth and for ever. Amen.
