Rite of Spring
My parents have had season tickets to the Philharmonic Symphony for many years and attend about 8 concerts during the year. Today was the last performance of the season. They asked if I wanted to go too, which I did, so my dad purchased a ticket for me a few weeks ago. We got all […]
Joyful Connections
This morning my mom and I were talking about how she doesn’t get out as much as she used to and how she misses visiting with people. A little later we decided to take her walker outside and go for a short trip around the complex. As soon as we got to the end of […]
New Home
My son and his wife have been working very hard for the past 12 years since their marriage. Like us all, there have been times when they have abundance and times when they have struggled. As they are expecting their 3rd child, they knew the house they had been renting for many years would not […]
Quick Answer
My poor old dog is really having a hard time. It is difficult for her to go very far, so she stays home now for my daily walk to the mailbox, which is about 1/2 mile round trip. As I walked this evening, I enjoyed looking at the scenery and the interesting clouds in the sky. […]
All About Physics
Recently my dad received a video course about Higgs boson, which according to Wikipedia is an “elementary particle in the Standard Model of particle physics.” My dad taught college physics for years. He has been watching the video course and reading the accompanying book and said that he needed to go back and review it […]

Then we headed over to the high school where my nephew was playing in his last high school concert as he is graduating. There were several different instrumental groups – percussion, jazz band, orchestra, chamber orchestra, quartet, concert band… […]
Treated With Respect
My mom and I had a “big day out” today. First I took her to a doctor’s appointment only to find out that there was a scheduling error, so she could not be seen. But the girls there were nice and told us what needed to be done to get it corrected. We were close to […]
Mother’s Day Love
Happy Mother’s Day! One of my son’s called me first thing this morning and we talked for a long time. When he is in a chatty mood, we can go on and on! At church, all the women received a special blessing – whether they were mothers or not – and received a carnation. I […]
First Holy Communion
Today my grandson received his first Holy Communion. It was hard for me not to be there, but it was great to see the pictures. He looked so big and handsome, but still has his signature smile. There were serious pictures of him standing straight and tall, and of him with the priest who is […]
Cooked Oven
A few weeks ago, I pushed a button to select a burner on the stove and it made a loud POP. I was terrified. We tested it after it cooled down and it seemed to be OK, so I continued to use it. The other day I turned on one of the other burners and […]
