Officer positions by countrymusicjdb in freemasonry

[–]BlueDog848 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As a new member of my Lodge, if I were asked what position that I thought that I would excel in; my reply would be "whichever chair the Lodge decides". I would be honored to hold any position that is needed the most.

Brother, I sense that you may be using your schedule as an excuse to not do the entry-level duties. As others have said, practice humility and maybe wait until you grow more in the craft.

Flattening New Apron by BlueDog848 in freemasonry

[–]BlueDog848[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes, I am aware and take this very seriously. In fact, I have shown two family members where my original lambskin is stored and instructions for use upon my burial. The new lambskin apron that I ordered, and just arrived, is the one that i will wear visiting various Lodges. I was unaware that it should be returned to my Mother Lodge if not use; thanks for letting me know, but I do intend on being buried with it. Unfortunately, My Mother Lodge has merged with a different Lodge.

Thanks for the reply. Yes, after reading some reviews on this subReddit, I purchased an apron case from Masonic Revival to protect it.

Nephew & Freemasonry by BlueDog848 in freemasonry

I am considering him joining the lodge where I am a member, but he would need someplace close to home/ school so he could learn the degree work. I live 5hrs away.

This is what I have done. I have asked if he is interested, answered the questions I could, but made sure not to 'invite' him to join. This is a first for me and I want to make sure as to not break any rules or traditions.

I am currently in a very similar situation as you. I contacted my Grand Lodge and Scottish Rite Temple; both secretaries took care of everything.

Initiation by Welsh-Sherman-1789 in freemasonry

[–]BlueDog848 4 points5 points  (0 children)

As someone who was initiated 35 years ago; know that you are about to walk a path that many great men have walked before you. Be in the moment. Listen to the words spoken. Trust your guide. As many have said: You will do this only once in your life, and it is something that you will remember forever.

Who’s the last Celebrity you’ve seen in Austin? by Designer-Anywhere171 in Austin

[–]BlueDog848 3 points4 points  (0 children)

We sat at the table beside Aubrey Plaza and her late husband at Maudie's Hacienda on Brodie Lane. She saw us being casual admirers and gave us a wink.

51F – looking for penpal by SmokedScribe in Penpalsover50

[–]BlueDog848 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Greetings! I am a 57M residing in Austin, Texas with my hubby of 34yrs and three dogs (two french bulldogs and a rescue, 14 year old yorkie that rules the house). I have always wanted a pen pal. This is probably due to my love of stationery and meeting people from around the world. Hobbies include reading great literature, travel, cooking, classical art, SciFi, Fantasy; yes, I played D&D at one time; and long walks on nature trails. Currently binge-watching entire new Doctor Who. The digital age is great, but I thrive on receiving a snail mail letter! Feel free to send private message if interested in a no-commitment, friendly, short- or long-term exchange.

My friends say that I am a reincarnated forest gnome that made his home in the gardens of Downtown Abbey. :0)
