Holy Week. Semana Santa. A week beginning with the Palm Sunday Mass, a week spent in prayer and contemplation. Usually. 

 

This year we had to forgo Palm Sunday Mass - Paul is down with some kind of not nice virus (I'm thinking a spring cold combined with hay fever) and was reluctant to expose his vulnerable self to potential further yuck-spread crammed into a small church hall. Can't blame him so we watched a televised service then he retired to the study to drink LemSip concoctions in hope of knocking down some of his symptoms. 

Hopefully the Amazon delivery of bulk Extra Soft Kleenex will be here today.
