Sam’s Club Outing
Since this crazy below zero cold snap, my mom and I have been stuck in the house alone for 4 days. Even though it was still below freezing today, we decided we needed to get out. I just recently joined Sam’s Club and had been wanting to do some product and price comparisons, so that’s […]
So Blessed
Today I talked with a friend whose father passed away a year ago. We shared stories, experiences, and emotions. As I thought about our conversation, I realized how many friends I have that have lost a parent just in the last year. It’s a lot. I mean there seems to be a lot of people […]
Many Voices
Today I was blessed to speak with several friends and text with others. I even joined up with my prayer group who I had not seen for months. It did my soul well to touch base with people, to talk, to be heard, to listen, to pray, to connect. I am very grateful. I Found […]
Taking It Easy
I had a very hard time getting up this morning, even though I went to bed on time and think I slept ok. It was below freezing outside all day long, so we didn’t have anywhere to go and that was fine with me. I barely got dressed and did a little exercising with my […]

I have been replaying the events of the last few weeks over and over in my head. I wonder if I could have and/or should have done something different to affect the outcome. I try to remember that I did the best I could and that God is God and I am not. Today I […]

Stress Relief
My sister came for the weekend, so I made an appointment to get a massage at the prompting of the family. I talked to the guy a little bit and told him I felt like my whole body was a big ball of tension. After only a few minutes, the massage felt so good I […]

The Great Exodus
The day after my dad’s funeral was the great exodus. I was grateful that my out of town family had stayed for 3 weeks, but it was time for everyone to make their way back home – except for one. I asked my brother if he would stay a few more days so we wouldn’t […]
At the Cemetery
The cold wind the day of the funeral blew in ice and snow for the next day. However, the following afternoon was mild and sunny with a clear blue sky, so we decided to make a trip out to the cemetery. After the military honors the other day, the military cemetery performed the burial in […]
