Relaxing and Rejuvenating
I love being outside and I love taking pictures. Today I found and attended a photography workshop at one of the state parks. It was led by a man who was a volunteer ranger, photographer, and archaeologist. He was very informative as we hiked around looking at rock formations and trees. I took a few […]
Passing of Beloved Priest
Today I received an email from my church announcing the death of a priest who has been serving our parish. He was retired, but was present quite a bit recently as we are without a pastor right now. My parents and I were very surprised as he was there at Mass a couple of weeks […]
Get To Cleaning
I got up bright and early this morning to get ready for the carpet cleaner to come. I picked everything up off the floor that I could. The guy was running a little late, so I cleaned the bathroom. He showed up as we were finishing lunch and got to work. It was very mild […]
Forgiveness Wins
Today I read a beautiful story about a young man who wanted to start a singing career, so he moved to Tennessee. Right after that, he was hit by a car and left paralyzed. He thought his life was over along with the career he wanted so badly. However, he forgave the person who hit […]
Made Me Happy
Last night, my son and I went to see the movie, “The Greatest Showman” inspired by the life of P.T. Barnum. If you haven’t seen it yet and want to, spoiler alert – – you may not want to keep reading until later. I didn’t know much about the movie before I went, just that […]
Mom Found God
As I was thinking about what to write tonight, I asked my mom where she found God today. We chuckled a little, because she had a really difficult time at Mass this morning. She struggled to find the readings, couldn’t find the songs in the hymnal, and couldn’t hear the priest. There was also a […]
Yesterday’s Tomorrow
The other day when my mom went to the neurologist, he tested her cognition. One of the “brain teasers” he gave her was: If today is Thursday, what is the day before the day after tomorrow? And then the other way: What is the day after the day before yesterday? She really struggled with those […]
Funny Dad
Today I was out and about during a very busy time of day. As I was sitting at a stop light, I noticed the driver in the vehicle behind me shaking his head around like he was head banging to music. Then he turned around looking towards the back seat. I was curious as to […]
Finally Found Physician
Today we finally got my mom in to see a new neurologist. We had seen and heard him a couple of times at the Parkinson’s support group. He spent a good amount of time with her asking questions and doing tests. We came armed with some questions, but he answered almost all of them without […]
Neighbor’s Faithful News
Today in celebration of pi day, I made an apple pie and we had our neighbors over. They told us that they had been struggling the past week or so as the husband’s sister was in the hospital. She was found unresponsive in her room in the senior living building. The doctors had been working […]
