Paige and Sheila discuss Paige's wedding plans so far and decisions Paige has made to make her life easier. Plus Paige asks questions. While this episode doesn't follow are usual format of what Paige has learned about a specific topic, it is a typical conversation that we would have while Paige is trying to figure out what is her next step in a project.
We also go on a tangent about what a part of a Latin Mass is called. Sheila is a Byzantine Catholic (we will let you look that up if you want) and Paige is a Roman Catholic. We apologize for that part, but we would just not in sync. If we were better podcasters we would have edited it out but if editing was required no podcast from us would ever see the light on day.
