Beating the Devil’s Tactics
I seem to get more notifications on my phone than I know what to do with. I usually go through them a couple times a day and delete, delete, delete. As I was swiping them away this evening, I stopped and watched a video that caught my eye called, “How to Beat the 3 Tactics […]
Breath of Air
It has been so hot here for the past few days, that we have pretty much stayed inside with the air conditioner running. Last night, however, a cold front came through and cooled things off. We stepped outside later in the morning and breathed in the cool air. We went for a nice walk, then […]
Soothing Weekend
My mom, sister, and I were happy that we were able to spend the 3-day weekend at the cabin. It had been almost 2 years since we had spent an overnight there. When we used to go on a regular basis, typically the first night was difficult perhaps due to the travel, the higher altitude, […]
A Little R&R
I have been a little overwhelmed the past couple days, just being particularly busy and trying to keep my priorities in check. I was very happy that our friend came to be with mom today so I could have some time to myself. And I made sure I did just that. I have learned that […]
Spectacular Sunset
Last night I saw the most amazing sunset. The rain directly in front of the mountains was directly lit by the orange glow of the sun that was low in the sky. There were assorted shapes and types of storm clouds with pieces of blue dotted in amongst them. One particularly fluffy cloud had pink […]
Taking Flight
We have so much enjoyed watching the pair of Red-Tailed Hawks over the past few months as they built their nest on the tall pine tree in our yard and raised a single chick. During the last few weeks, the fledgling has grown considerably and we can see the difference in it every day. It […]
Son’s Strength
My son participated in a weight lifting competition today. He truly has been gifted with physical strength. I was grateful that my brother was here to keep my mother company so I could go watch my son in person. I was amazed at how the competitors were able to lift near 3 times their own […]
Morning Walk
Last night 3 of my siblings spent the night. I woke up fairly early and decided to go out for a walk. One of my sister’s was awake too, so we both went. I used to walk my dog every morning. She died many years ago, and I can’t even remember the last time I […]
Sibling Hike
One brother and one sister were here today and our friend was coming to spend a couple hours with my mom. It was a gorgeous day, so my siblings and I went for a hike. My brother brought his dog as usual, but she’s been having problems with her hip, so we weren’t sure how […]
Baby Hawk
We have been keeping a close eye on the hawk’s nest in the tallest pine tree in our yard, but are unable to see directly into the nest. They have it tucked away and hidden pretty well. The other day, I talked with one of the neighbors who said she had a clear view of […]
