Heading Towards the Light
I was out today and as I was about to head home, there was a terrific storm. I didn’t want to get hail damage on the car, so took a couple seconds to think about what to do. Of course, my phone was blowing up with weather alerts. I looked at the radar and saw […]
No Shot Today
Along with several other issues, my mom has osteoporosis. Because of this and the fact that she is a high fall risk due to the Parkinson’s, her arthritis doctor recommended she receive a medication to help improve her bone density.

New Permit Driver
As I was out driving around today, I saw ahead of me a minivan that had something written on the back window. It reminded me of when the youth used to decorate our car windows before heading off to Workcamp. Being curious, I changed lanes and got behind the van to see what it was. […]

Starving Fear
The daily reflection from Dynamic Catholic that I read this morning really struck me and I tried to think of it often during the day: “Feed your faith and your fear will starve to death.” I Found God today in a great thought that struck my heart.
Sharing Winnings
When we are at the cabin on weekends, we go to church in the nearby town, which also happens to be a gaming town. Then we go to lunch and pull a few slots. My dad has told the priest in the past that whatever he wins, he will give 10% to the church. He […]
Not a Salesman
Today my mom and I stopped by the store after her exercise class. She was pretty tired and didn’t want to walk around too much, but there were a couple of things we needed to pick up. While we were there, we looked at the appliances to make smoothies. My mom has had a blender […]
Blessings Reminder
At church today there was a visiting priest from a mission called Cross Catholic Outreach. He talked about the plight of many different people in many different parts of the world and how the ministry helps them. His plea for support went right along with the Gospel of the day, which was the story of the […]
