Fixed Flat
When I was getting ready to run some errands the other day, I walked into the garage and saw one of the cars had a flat tire. I was happy that my son and grandson came over and were able to take it off. They put it in the back of the other car. Mom […]
Fighting Temptations
I met with my prayer group tonight and we talked about the scripture reading from Matthew when Jesus was tempted. There is much to gleen from this passage. But one thing that we really discussed was the difference between temptation and sin. Jesus was tempted, but he didn’t sin. So, when I am tempted to […]
Blessed For Lent
Our new caregiver came over this morning and stayed with mom while I took my sister to a doctor’s appointment. We were gone for a short 3 hours. When we arrived back home, the caregiver had given my mom breakfast, gave her a shower and fixed her hair, did the dishes, washed and dried my […]
Empathetic Caregiver
We decided it was a good idea to hire a caregiver to come in for those times when we need a little extra help. She came for a few hours this morning. We had time to talk for a while before my mom got up. I told her my history of caring for my parents […]
Best Friend’s Birthday
Today was my mom’s friend’s birthday. She came over today as usual to play piano. My mom wanted to get her some balloons, so yesterday we stopped by the party store and picked some out. One had a giant note on it, so that was particularly fitting. It was a fun surprise. I asked my […]
Angels Always
I have been continuing to listen to the podcast of reading the Catechism of the Catholic Church in a year and trying to stay caught up. Today I listened to and read a couple paragraphs about angels. According to scripture, God created Heaven and Earth. Heaven is everything spiritual, including the angels who have will […]
Humor and Laughter
This morning, my mom found something funny in an article she was reading on her iPad. I made an inside joke about it and we started our day with laughter. Tonight before my mom went to bed, we watched some short videos from the Carol Burnett show. They were so funny and we just laughed. […]
Sister Talk
My mom and her sister keep in touch via email and my social media posts. It has been a very long time since they talked on the phone. The last time they did, both of them had a very hard time hearing the other. We had been thinking about giving my aunt a call and […]
Missed Her
My daughter in law and I planned on getting together last week, but it snowed and the roads were too bad. We rescheduled for today and it snowed again. However, she was already out taking the kids to school, which started late, so we did meet up. I was proud of her for driving on […]
Our Tech Guy
I had a memory pop up today on social media of a post and photo I shared 9 years ago. It was when my son was in college and was a thrower on the track team. It was difficult travelling to far away places to watch his meets. I was excited when I learned that […]
