Instead, Susan turned to something whe knew would never disappoint her and in 1959, after high school graduation, her parents proudly but reluctantly escorted her to her new home as a Postulant in the Ursuline Sisters' Motherhouse in Long Island, NY. As she donned her heavy black dress with cape, stiff white collar and cuffs, and attached the unfamiliar veil on her head (sans mirror- first lesson, a postulant must not be vain) for the first time, she could not imagine how her life would evolve over the next nine years. She imagined herself as striving towards purity in thought, mind and deed, in her eventual fate as a saint. But it was really, really hard.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Susan Bassler Pickford\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 188966412X\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781889664125\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e S B P Collaboration Works\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 06\/08\/2012\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 154\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.41lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.50h x 5.51w x 0.33d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eReview Citation(s): \u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eKirkus Reviews\u003c\/i\u003e 01\/01\/0001","brand":"Susan Bassler Pickford","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":44410778386687,"sku":"9781889664125","price":12.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_094bb533-f003-4ae5-a56a-754d4542837a.jpg?v=1697537696","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/removing-the-habit-of-god-susan-bassler-pickford-9781889664125","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
