Extreme Fasting
I visited with a friend today and noticed that he was looking very slim. I commented to that fact and he said he had dieted for a while which worked, but like most diets, when he stopped being so particular, the weight came back on. For Lent this year, he is fasting on Wednesdays and […]
Affordable Housing
A friend in my prayer group had been on the waiting list for subsidized housing for the elderly for 2 years. A couple months ago she was notified there was an available apartment and she was able to move. Today the prayer group met at her new place. It was very cute and cozy. Her […]
Talking With My Aunt
Going through my parents memorabilia got me to thinking about and missing my mom’s sister. I feel a special bond with her as we share a birthday. I had not talked to her in quite some time, so I gave her a call today. We chatted for a while and reminisced. She will be turning […]

A Slow Start
I had a hard time waking up this morning. But, I had no commitments, so I didn’t worry too much about it. I would wake up, then go back to sleep. When I woke back up again it was an hour later. This actually happened a couple of times. I figured I must have needed […]
