Do you attend church? How often?Nope, never. Mom used to force me so as soon as I moved to NYC, I booted that tradition out the window.
Did you give up anything for Lent?Nope, because I am not catholic and I don't want to give up anything...I suck.
What's for dinner tonight?I think we're going out because one of DH's best friends is staying with us. We went to a BBQ place last night.....it was adorable seeing DH and his friend play video games together....

Do you attend church? How often? Not very often.  I need to get better about it.  When DH was out of work last year we both went more often.
Did you give up anything for Lent? No.  Ever since I graduated from Catholic school I never know when Lent starts.
What's for dinner tonight? Thai food w/ some friends.

Do you attend church? How often? No. I grew up pretty active in the church (more for the social life than anything else) but don't actually believe in god, so I stopped going once I hit college.

Did you give up anything for Lent? No.

What's for dinner tonight? Something yummy - we just picked my dad and his fiancée up from the airport (!!! excited to see them and excited that there here for our WEDDING), so we'll go out somewhere fun tonight depending on what they're up for.

Emily, I forgot that your wedding is THIS WEEK!?!?!?!?! OMG, I'm excited for you.

Do you attend church? How often? Yes, we try to go weekly

Did you give up anything for Lent? No

What's for dinner tonight? It's written down, I just forget....

Do you attend church? How often?

Not regularly anymore. We go to Mass on holidays with my mom and step dad to not piss them off. I would like to start going regularly again, probably to a Unitarian church, but FI is not into that. He doesn't begrudge my faith, he just doesn't share it.

Did you give up anything for Lent?

Tried to give up sugar, but it didn't last. I have cut back a lot, though.

What's for dinner tonight?

Cheese, crackers, and wine.. Its Girl's night!!

Next week, March 6. But as of today we're into single digits, and the first international guests (my dad) have arrived! MOH gets here Sunday!

And yes, I'm pretty excited for me too :)

Do you attend church? How often?

Occasionally--my mom is the choir director at our church, and I have a vocal music ed. degree, so she has me come and sing sometimes. 

Did you give up anything for Lent?

Nope.

What's for dinner tonight?
Probably pizza or Cracker Barrel, I think FI and I are going to dinner with my grandma. :-)

Emily, congrats on your wedding--single digits is exciting!

jenn.daniel

Do you attend church? How often? I went twice in December, but not since then.

Did you give up anything for Lent? not this year.

What's for dinner tonight? FI will actually get home before me this evening, so I hope he makes me dinner.

Do you attend church? How often? I haven't gone in forever ... I keep saying that I want to start going, but I'm lazy

Did you give up anything for Lent? I actually gave up Knotting at work (And it's been hard!). I'm only on right now because we had a snow day.

What's for dinner tonight? Since we're most likely going to be snowed in tonight, it's probably going to be frozen pizza or pizza rolls ... that's kind of "our thing" for snow.

So that's where you've been! I'd forgotten about this and just thought you were so busy with newlywed bliss that you'd forgotten all about us :)

megk8oz

Nope, I still love you guys, I'm just making an attempt at being a "good Catholic".

Honestly, it's been really hard, I've been so addicted to TK ... it wasn't affecting my performance at work, but honestly, it also wasn't the "best" use of my time, lol.

stina93446

Meg, I remember you saying that you gave up knotting at work for lent and I was really weirded out when I saw you posting on here this morning. It is snowing here too.

baystateapple

Do you attend church? How often? Yes.  I try to attend weekly.

Did you give up anything for Lent? Fast food. 

What's for dinner tonight? I'm going to a concert with FI, so I have no idea!

megk8oz

Yup, snow day!

My office is actually pretty awesome about closing for bad weather. It's not one of those places where they say "Ok, the weather is supposed to suck, so everybody come in, and then when it gets really bad, we're going to close early and make you drive home in the even worse weather". Which, they're pretty awesome in general about needing time off for things and whatnot ... so I really have been feeling like a jerk not giving 110% at work lately.

Do you attend church? How often?  Weddings and funerals.

Did you give up anything for Lent?  Nope.

What's for dinner tonight?   Leftovers...exciting. :-)

aerinpegadrak

Do you attend church? How often?  Nope, I'm a filthy heathen.

Did you give up anything for Lent?  See above.

What's for dinner tonight?  It's FI's day off, so I'm hoping he whips up some deliciousness.  Tomorrow is our date night, and I have selected Fuji Grill since we splurged on a nice steakhouse last week.  I'm really looking forward to my usual eel and spicy tuna bowl.

Do you attend church? How often? Not very often

Did you give up anything for Lent? No

What's for dinner tonight? Not sure yet for tonight, but last night FI made Thai peanut chicken with asparagus and brown rice, it was delicious and healthy! Yum!

Licia&Wayne

Do you attend church? How often?
Yep, I go every weekend. I also teach a faith formation class for 5th graders and one for special needs children with my fiance.

Did you give up anything for Lent?
I am trying my best to not eat out. At all. And to cut back on snacking and food that isn't so great for me...I could go for a doughnut right about now.

What's for dinner tonight?
Cranberry and pear chutney, chicken breast, rice and probably carrots. Yum yum!

[QUOTE]Do you attend church? How often? [/QUOTE] Nope. My parents didn't raise us with religion, but they didn't tell us there is no such thing as God or anything either. So, I guess, neutral? I have six siblings and all of us are non-religious. I go by the terms agnostic atheist to describe my stance.<div>agnostic= to not know</div><div>gnostic= to know</div><div>theist= belief in god or gods</div><div>atheist= lack of belief in god or gods</div><div>So therefore the two are not mutually exclusive as many people believe. Most people who say they are "agnostic" are actually agnostic atheists whether they know it or not (because just saying you are "agnostic" doesn't actually say anything about your religious beliefs).
