Spell “World”
I was visiting a friend today when she received a phone call. She answered and put it on speaker. As she was talking with the woman, she asked her if she could tell me about their relationship. The woman agreed and could hear everything she said. My friend was a special education teacher for many […]
God Knows
I was going through my photos today and found a quote by C.S. Lewis that I thought was very fitting as we start the New Year. Maybe we’re making resolutions or trying to overcome something we’re struggling with. For me, it is comforting to know that God knows all about our humanity in the person […]
Great Neighbors
This afternoon one of my neighbors stopped over with her grandchildren. They had decorated some cookies and were sharing them. The woman and the 2 little girls came in while we visited for a bit. The girls were interested in the nativity set and we talked about how today is Epiphany. One of the girls […]
God’s Waiting Room
Today I heard from a faraway friend. She and her husband and I actually spoke to each other on the phone for about an hour and a half, which was really pretty easy to do. Of course, we caught up on what is happening with our kids and grandkids. Which brought us to the fact […]
Lake Powell
This morning at church, the priest started talking about a trip he and his family took to Lake Powell when he was 13 years old. They rented a houseboat to live and travel on during the vacation. I was immediately taken back about 35 or so years ago when me, my husband at the time, […]
Weekly Flowers
I went to lunch with some friends today and one of the older ladies talked about visiting her husband’s grave at the National Cemetery where my parents are also buried. We agreed that it was heartwarming to see all the Christmas wreaths laid on each site. She also talked about the camaraderie felt with others […]
Syrup
I am trying to get back to more healthy eating, so today I made some tuna salad with an apple cider vinegar “de-tox” dressing. While I was at it, I decided to make some granola. I had some pecans and some coconut flakes and found a recipe that sounded good. It called for maple syrup. […]
Relaxation
On New Year’s Day, my son’s tradition is to have a Lord of the Rings marathon. I love the movies, so this year I decided to join him. All of them take about 14 hours, so they have to start pretty early. When I arrived in the morning, my son and his wife had made […]
Craft Time
For Christmas, my granddaughter received some new craft kits. We decided we should have craft time, so we got together at my house today. My daughter in law brought a crocheted blanket she has been working on. My granddaughter brought a rainbow unicorn latch hook rug. I got out a diamond painting I have been […]
The Church Pew
Today I visited an elderly friend. While I was there, my 12:00 noon timer went off. Many years ago, my mother said she remembered when she was in school as a child, they would pray the Angelus when the church bells rang at noon. So, I set the alarm. My mom and I and whoever […]
