Retirement Day

Today was my sister’s last official day of work. She has been wrapping things up and passing along all her tasks and information to her co-workers. Today she gathered up all the equipment she had from the law firm and delivered it all to the CEO. She said they chatted over a cup of coffee […]

Better Surgery

My neighbor has had some medical issues and without getting into details – mostly because I won’t be able to explain it properly – she has been putting off surgery. Her doctor here explained that it would be major surgery in which they would hope for a good outcome. It didn’t sound promising to her. […]

Apologies

I was spending time with some friends today when suddenly the wife told her husband that she needed to apologize to him. I just grew silent and tried to fade into the background. She told him that she had said some things to the physical therapist who came over that may have made her husband […]

Día de Muertos

Today my sister and I went to a Día de Muertos celebration at the local Fine Arts Center. It was a free event with family activities, food, vendors, music, and a traditional Hispanic altar. The event was very well attended with lost of kids and families. You could make a sugar skull mask, tissue paper […]

Run To Jesus

Last year I was visiting an elderly home bound woman and bringing her Holy Communion. I was happy that I got to know her family during that time as she lived in their home. Several months ago, it appeared that she was not going to be on this earth much longer. The family contacted me […]

Working With Baby

My son’s company was very generous with the paternity leave that he was able to use. He took several weeks off and went back to work a couple weeks ago, continuing to work from home. He sent me a picture today of him working at his desk with the baby strapped on. She was sleeping […]

In NASCAR

I was thrilled to get a phone call from my oldest grandson today. He has been working as a tire guy for a race team for the past year. They race late model stock cars. His dream has always been to work in NASCAR. He has met a lot of people during this past year. […]

Time With Sons

My older son will be travelling back home tomorrow morning, so we got together for a family dinner tonight. We went to one of my favorite Mexican restaurants. My sister, and my younger son and his wife came also with the baby. They have been getting very adventurous taking her out. They even went to […]

Good and Faithful Servant

Today I received a notice from the church’s prayer line to pray for a gentleman who passed away this weekend. I was surprised at the name. Several years ago, I volunteered with an organization called Fostering Hope. The group supported and helped young people transition from foster homes to living independently. That is where I […]

Remember That You Will Die

I have been a fan of Jonathan Roumie since the first time I saw him portray Jesus in “The Chosen”. When I saw him doing interviews and such, I noticed he wears skull rings. I wondered what that was all about. He explained it in one of the interviews. The skulls are to remind him […]
