Home From Honeymoon
This evening I made the drive to the airport and back to pick up my son and his new wife. They spent several days in Germany seeing the sights and attending Oktoberfest in Munich. They shared some photos in an online album during that time. They fit right in with their German attire and were […]
Race Team Dream
I printed some photos of the wedding and put them in a little book to show them to people. I figured it was easier than passing my phone around. As I was showing them to some friends today, we talked about my grandchildren and what they were doing. I shared that my older grandson had […]
Many in Church
The other day I saw an advertisement encouraging people to get back to church this Sunday. It included a map with several of the churches around the city and links to their websites. It was interesting, though, that when I look at that time I didn’t find any Catholic churches. I researched a little further, […]
Generous Neighbors
I snuck outside today to water my plants and flowers. With my black eye and stitches, I didn’t want to scare anyone. But, my neighbor across the sidewalk came out at the same time. She had dropped me off at the doctor’s office on the day of the surgery and had checked in via text, […]
Teamwork
I had to have a basal cell skin cancer spot removed from above my eyebrow yesterday. Actually, while the dermatologist was performing the outpatient surgery, he found that it had grown into my eyebrow as well. I was glad that my son picked me up after the procedure, so I didn’t have to try driving […]
Encouraging Words
Today I read an article that quoted Arnold Schwarzenegger. There was a line that reminded of what I was thinking yesterday. “If you find yourself falling for the anger, go out in the real world and make yourself human again.” Then I saw an encouraging post by TobyMac that speaks to our spirituality. “Focus on […]
True Kindness
Before taking my road trip back in May, I took my car in for an oil change and to check things over. At that time, they said I would need new brakes when I returned. But, for the past few months, I have just been busy doing things and didn’t make the time to take […]
The Wedding
It has been a whirlwind of excitement and joy during the past several days as we celebrated my younger son’s wedding. The day before the wedding, my daughter in law’s mother hosted an intimate shower and tea. I was grateful to meet many of the ladies in the family, including the grandmother who I heard […]
People Arriving
Today 3 out of 4 of my siblings plus my brother in law arrived safely at my house. We visited and laughed and reminisced as we get ready for a busy couple of days. Tomorrow my other sister and her son and his wife arrive. I’m looking forward to having a house full of people […]
Getting Real
My son called me today and gave me an update on his pre-wedding happenings. He said he picked up his suit that he will be wearing and had to find a place to hide it in his closet. He and his fiancee have been moving her things into the house and they were making one […]
