Up On Her Feet

My daughter in law had a follow up appointment yesterday with the doctor who did her ankle surgery. He unwrapped the bandages, took the stitches out, wrapped her ankle back up, and put on a removable boot. The doctor told my daughter in law that she could start putting some pressure on the foot and […]

Sister’s Company

My sister has been house sitting for a friend of hers. She came back home here last night and worked today on her computer. I was busy getting more photos ready for the upcoming craft fair. I would get one packaged up and go show it to her. She is very discerning and has a […]

Football Fun

I spent the day with my daughter in law, granddaughter, and younger grandson today. My 2 sons went to the football game with their dad who came from out of town to celebrate their birthdays. The older grandson went too. They shared some pictures of their tailgate setup and food. When they got home, they […]

Yelling For Jesus

I went to church this evening for a change. It was much quieter than Sunday mornings when many families and children attend. The Gospel reading was about a blind man who wanted to be healed. He followed Jesus, yelling the whole while until he was noticed. He knew who Jesus was and he knew what […]

Working on Photos

We have hundreds of printed photos that my dad took. Some are framed, some are matted, and some are just loose prints. We have given many away and everyone in the family took what they wanted. We have been wondering what to do with the rest of them. A couple of months ago, I learned […]

Ordinary Conversation

When I took my granddaughter to school this morning, we were a little early, so we waited in the car for a few minutes. As we did, we looked around for interesting things. We saw some airplanes in the sky and talked about contrails. Then we saw some birds and talked about the different kinds. […]

Sharing Her Childhood

My daughter in law has been getting very bored as she continues to recover from her ankle surgery. She is still non-weight bearing and has her foot elevated the majority of the day. Yesterday we looked through a list of things to do and one of the suggestions was to make a photo album. My […]

Friend’s Success

A friend of mine has been crocheting super cute hats and things and selling them at craft fairs. Recently, a store was interested in the hats, so she gave them some to sell. Not surprisingly, they have been selling very quickly and the store is ready for more. She texted me today to let me […]

Still Counting My Blessings

Today was my oldest son’s birthday. Per his request I made chicken enchiladas and a fruit pizza which I haven’t made in a very long time. I spent the afternoon at his house helping to make sure my daughter in law was doing ok. She gets a little better every day since the ankle surgery […]

Counting My Blessings

I have had a song going through my head all day today. It was “Counting My Blessings” by Seph Schlueter. As it ran through my head, I did in fact reflect on all the blessings God has given me – family, friends, faith, home, food. Then I started looking closer and being even more grateful. […]
