Owning Up
Tonight I had the privilege of sharing dinner with the group at the Newman Center. On Thursday evenings after Mass, a different group of people provide meals for the students to treat them to home cooked food. This was the 2nd event that was held since school started. There were about 30 young people in […]
Thinking Of Heaven
Today I saw a thought provoking quote by St. Teresa of Avila. “Life is to love in such a way, that we are not afraid to die.” The more I keep my eyes and thoughts on God, the more I want to be with Him. If that is true, then when it comes time for […]
Eyes On God
As I was praying about what to blog about tonight, I opened my phone and part of Psalm 27 popped up. When I turn on the news, the world around me seems to get more and more frightening. I know I probably shouldn’t turn it on at all. But the Psalm was a good reminder […]
Wedding Outfits
I was happy that my sister was here for a couple days. I put on my outfits for the upcoming wedding and showed her. She helped me figure out what jewelry would look nice. She forgot to bring her dress with her, but had a photo. Today we went to the shoe store and she […]
Beautiful Drive
This morning, I woke up early again at the cabin to an interesting sound. At first, I thought it was a siren. Then I heard yipping dogs. I concluded it was coyotes. I went out on the deck and listened to them. The sound seemed to be coming from the valley just across the road. […]
Bear Investigation
My brother and I have been doing a lot of cleaning at the cabin. Yesterday he loaded up his truck with a couple bags of stinky trash to take down to the community dumpster. Unfortunately, they had already closed. So, the trash stayed in his truck overnight. Before we went to bed, we discussed what […]
A Serene Moment
I am spending a couple days at the cabin with my brother. I got up pretty early this morning and walked with my brother and his dog. It was so peaceful and still. The air was crisp and fresh with the smell of rain on the trees. After our walk, I sat on the upstairs […]
Connected Through Prayer
I felt drawn to church today, especially as I thought about the horrific shooting at Annunciation Catholic School in Minneapolis. I can’t even imagine what those children and parents are going through. I also can’t imagine a person allowing evil to have such a grip upon them. I went to the noon Mass, which had […]
Little Boy, Big Heart
I was talking with my neighbor this morning and she told me about spending the day with her 7 year old grandson. They went up to the mountains and road a train. They also saw some mines which is the little boys new obsession. On the drive home, they passed a huge plot of land. […]
Humming
I spent some time volunteering at the Newman Center today. One of the young ladies was humming as she went from here to there. I loved hearing that. I told her I enjoyed her humming and it reminded me of my mother who always had a song playing. The young woman said that she felt […]
