I think my husband is also, it should be real easy for him.
He thinks I should give up BOB, but why set myself up for failure.
I will think of something else.

Lent is about sacrificing like Jesus did for us I think. It ends on Easter Sunday when he rose from the dead. I'm not so sure about the ashes and last night, when my sister asked my grandfather (who recently had a stroke) about it, all he said was "Ashes to ashes, dust to dust, if it wasn't for your a$$hole, your belly would bust."Originally posted by RoseRed
Okay... here goes...
What is lent and why ashes on the forehead today? I know that is some sort of religious thing, but that's about it.
So I'm still clueless on the ashes thing.

That explains why I got all sorts of strange looks one year when I kept telling my co-coworkers that their faces were dirty.
I did that to an attorney, totally forgot it was Ash Wednesday and told him he had newspaper ink on his forehead. Ok, I was thinking since the hubby is giving up sex, I should give up washing his cloths.

At least I am not the only one!
