I pray in the evenings. I say the Our Father and Hail Mary. Sometimes I say the Hail, Holy Queen prayer which is a favorite of mine. Other times I might say a novena. I don't say the rosary very much. If I do I don't say it the correct way (say the Apostles Creed at the start and you pray the Hail, Holy Queen at the end).I don't pray the rosary by praying the Joyful,Sorrowful, Glorious Mysteries. When I do pray the rosary I just say the Our Father on the big beads and the Hail Mary on the tiny ones.

About 14 years ago I used to use meditative prayer a lot. While in meditation I would listen to religious music. Now don't laugh...but fourteen years ago I was seriously contemplating on being a nun. Much to the relief of my parents God had something else in mind for me to do.

Didn't want to confuse anyone when I spoke about the rosary. I know that on rosaries the beads are the same size for both the Our Father and Hail Mary. However,I just wanted to clarify that the rosary I use was given to me when I was a child. The Our Father beads are larger in size than the Hail Mary beads.
