New Aerobic Instructor?
After joining the YMCA, the first thing I wanted to try was a water exercise class. It is very early so I figured could be back in the house probably before my parents awoke. Waking up was a shock to my system, but I was determined, so I made myself move and got myself there. […]
Honey Bees
Since we have received so much rain recently, some of the bushes around the house have flowers on them for the first time in years. The bright bluish-purplish flowers are attracting several different kinds of bees and butterflies. I have heard all about how the bees are declining in numbers, so it has been nice […]
Their Song
Today my mom sat down to play the piano which she has not done in a few days since she has not been feeling well. She wanted to find something to sing. I was glad she felt good enough to not only play, but sing too. She started a couple of songs part way, then […]
YMCA
During the past year, I have been going to physical therapy for problems with my hip. One of the places I went to had a swimming pool and it felt great doing the therapy in the water. Since then, I have been wanting to join the local YMCA that has exercise classes in their pool. […]
She Has the Answers
This evening, my parents and I watched the NFL pre-season football game. We follow our team to some extent, but not overly so. There were many new people who we did not recognize or know anything about. Each time my dad and I asked a question, my mom had some answers for us. It was […]
A New Car
My son has been having problems with his car recently – well, since we drove it across the country to move him here. It has almost 200,000 miles on it, so it wasn’t really surprising. He was hoping to make it last until he got his student loans paid off and then look at buying […]
Gracious Words
My son has been having serious problems with his car, so we decided to go car shopping today. As we talked with one salesperson, he mentioned that his mother was in another state caring for his grandmother who has Parkinson’s. I told him that I was caring for my parents and that my mother has […]
Little Sunshine
It was very rainy today – cloudy, gloomy, and cool all day which is highly unusual for the area. One of my friends on the other side of the country shared on social media some pictures of fields of sunflowers that she was visiting. Tonight she posted one from her own garden with the caption, […]
Disney Binge
Last night I was really in the mood to watch a movie, but it was too late to start. Today after church, it was a pretty quiet afternoon. Unfortunately, my mom wasn’t feeling well, so she has been taking it easy, resting and napping. Also, I was a little sore from horseback riding yesterday. So […]
The Big 60
Today is my older brother’s 60th birthday, so we planned a day of celebration. My son’s girlfriend was here for a visit, and it was great to have her join in the festivities. My brother requested homemade pizza for his birthday meal and a dessert of peach strudel. I had never made strudel before, but […]
