Better Than Social Media
Today I talked to a friend who I worked with about 30 years ago. She told me about some others that she had talked to and what they were doing. She is so good at keeping in touch with everyone, she amazes me. She said that she knows people have lives and are busy, but […]
Set Up Phone Call
Today I sent a text to a friend and inadvertently sent it to another as well. The latter one gave me a call and we chatted for quite a while. It had been a long time since I talked with her, though she pops into my mind often and then I bring her to prayer. […]
Super Patient Boy
My mom has been struggling to recover from diverticulitis and is still tired and weak. Today, she felt her heart rate was very low. I checked it and even though she has a pacemaker, it was very erratic. Needless to say, we ended up spending the afternoon in the Emergency Room. All the testing came […]
Across Borders
One of our neighbor’s has been hosting a couple of Chinese teachers in a program where they are learning to teach English. I got to meet and chat with them for a bit. They were very joyful, respectful, and grateful. Today there was a story on the news of our local Fire Department who has […]
Wedding Cookie Table Record
A couple weeks ago a friend told me she was making a trip to a small town in PA where some of her family lives. A lot of people in that area are from Italy and carry out the tradition of having a cookie table at their wedding where guests bring plates of cookies to […]
Mom’s Magnificent Music
My brother and my dad got his new TV set up including almost all of the old components. One that was left out was the old cassette tape deck. This prompted my dad to get out and sort all his cassette tapes and decided what was worth keeping. I interrupted him today with his earbuds […]
Encouraging Strangers
After we got the new TV set up and working properly, we were left with the giant box. Today was trash day, so my dad cut the box in half and put it outside with the garbage can. When he heard the truck coming, he went outside to meet the driver. My dad showed the […]
Fruits of My Labor
About 2 weeks ago, I went to the farmer’s market and bought some delicious fresh peaches. A few days after that, my mom received her monthly box of fruit that my brother signed her up for. It was a box of 10 large beautiful organic peaches. The other day, my dad brought home his large […]
Carrying the Box
At the complex where we live, the mailboxes are located all in one place. This just happens to be the furthest point from my parent’s home as you can get. It makes for a 1/2 mile total loop. Every evening my dad makes the walk after he feels the mail person has been there. Tonight […]
Missed at the Pool
A couple of weeks ago, I had a basal cell skin cancer spot removed. I was most upset about the fact that I couldn’t go into the swimming pool for a while. This morning, I headed back to the aqua aerobics class. It felt great to get back into the pool and exercise that way. […]
