Move In Day

My sister and I have been working hard at getting the house ready for her to move in. We were able to sell many of the estate items and donate others. An estate dealer sold some things and took everything else out of the house that was not needed. Once the house was pretty empty, […]

Perfect Timing

After Mass this morning, I stopped by my son’s house. I thought I would visit for just a bit, then go about my day. However, when I arrived, my granddaughter was awake and aware. She is 2 months old now. My son was holding her and every now and then she would smile, which is […]

All Coming Together

A couple weeks ago, my sister and I talked about her moving in. I was pretty excited as I don’t really like being by myself. We always shared a bedroom when we were growing up and have shared a living space a couple times since then. I feel like we know each other pretty well […]

Sharing the Load

My sister and I are together this weekend. She got the Hallow app not too long ago and we have been sharing podcasts that we enjoy with each other. This morning we listened to the daily reflection together. Then we played the trivia game, which we weren’t great at. We played the categories game and […]

Helpful Family

My son and his wife have had a lot of work to do in their yard and their deck has been in very bad shape. Being first time parents, it has been difficult for them to focus on anything except the baby. My son’s dad flew in from out of town for a couple of […]

Baby Shopping

Every year, a certain organization holds a gigantic used children’s sale  at a local event center. This year, my daughter in law and I decided to go. When I arrived at my son’s house, my daughter in law was feeding the baby. My son said that his new daughter gets very unhappy if she’s not […]

Being Patient

After my brothers and I have been working through all my dad’s old camera equipment, there is still a lot left. I brought much of it into the used camera store today. The old gentleman who owns the store came out in his walker to look at the treasures. I did my best to help […]

Energetic Dog

Today I went over to my son’s house to watch their dog while they took the baby to her doctor’s appointment. The husky was crazy as soon as I got there. She was jumping all around and vocalizing. She knows when I come that we are going out on an adventure, or taking a walk. […]

New Adventures

After being together for a couple of months, my brother started off on his new adventure this morning. His dog was super excited to get on the road again. I had been worried about her as she is getting older and struggling to get around and had some stomach problems. When she has issues now, […]

Better Health

My brother has a great group of friends in the RV place that he stays in the winter. They even have Zoom get togethers when people are scattered for the summer. They are very close and supportive of one another. A couple of days ago, my brother told me about one of the ladies who […]
