Remaining Joyful
I used to have the ability to go to Mass just about every day. While admittedly, I sometimes felt it as an obligation, I always felt more at peace if I kept it up. One of my “resolutions” this year in my quest for peace is to try to get to Mass more often than […]
First Job Offer
My son will be graduating from college this May. He will complete 5 years of classes, studying, testing, projects, working, and internships. He has been in the process of looking for a job and interviewing as he searches for the right place to begin his new career. He called today and eagerly told me about his […]
The Vision
My sister works at a natural foods distributor and always brings us some interesting and yummy treats. The other day we cracked into a “Chocolove” peppermint in dark chocolate bar. It was delicious. When we had finished the bar, my dad discovered a poem on the inside of the wrapper. It was called, “The Vision” […]
Reducing Meds
My mom had an appointment with her neurologist today. She had been seeing the PA for the past 3 years and we didn’t really feel we were being helped, so we were glad that she finally got to see the doctor himself. She has had so many medical issues since she last saw him and […]
Grateful for Honesty
The other day when we were heading up to the cabin, I was searching for my snow boots and gloves, but couldn’t find them anywhere. I remembered putting them in and taking them out of cars as I made several trips to the airport in cold and snowy weather, but eventually I lost track of […]
Finding Peace
A New Year has arrived! I spent the evening last night with my sisters and parents just hanging out and playing games. My mom made it until 9 pm. My sisters and I hustled her into the car so we could go see the “early fireworks”. They were less than spectacular, but it was fun […]
Plowed Driveway
We headed up to the cabin in the mountains today. It was the warmest day we will have for a while and it was absolutely gorgeous. The snow covered mountains and the crystal blue sky was such a beautiful sight. Since we had quite a frigid spell and snow, we didn’t know what to expect […]
Cheerful People
We had several errands to run today and I anticipated that there would be a lot of people out. There were. But people were very happy and helpful. My dad found an item that he had been looking for with the help of the sales clerk in the store and got some other questions answered […]
Brother Brought Joy
My brother who came for Christmas headed home today. After a couple weeks of festivities and company, it is a very quiet house now. My parents and I took care of some things that needed attention and just kind of hung out for a while. I had made some gingerbread cookies that we didn’t have […]
You’re Amazing
Last month for my birthday, I received a helium balloon with the words, “You’re Amazing” along with a bouquet of flowers and hearts. It is a mylar type, so it keeps the helium in it for a very long time. Recently, though, it has been hanging low from the string it is tied to. Today […]
