Time For Time
Today I was a couple minutes late for the grief support group that I have been attending. It seems that I rush too much and we talked about it at the beginning of the session. At the end, the leader read the reflection for today. Once again, it really hit home. ‘When you become anxious […]
Learning English
Today I had a visit with one of our neighbors. She has a ministry of teaching English in foreign countries. We have heard about some of their trips in the past. She and a team are getting ready for another trip at the end of the month. During their time teaching English classes, they also […]
Tickling the Keys
My mom’s friend came over today and they played the two pianos as usual. But today, when they were finished, her friend played a couple solo pieces that she had memorized. I can’t even remember the last time I heard her play alone like that. There were several runs up and down the keyboard. I […]

New Haircut
I have loved the young woman who has been cutting my and my mom’s hair for a couple of years now. So, I was pretty sad when she told me she was moving. It is so hard to find a new hairdresser. A friend connected us with her person for my mother. We went there […]
