To Love Them
The other day, my son and I were talking about his dogs. The first dog they got is calm and sweet and almost never gives them trouble. Then they got another puppy. She’s the opposite and is quite crazy. I told my son that I didn’t understand why they got another dog, when the first […]
Crew at the Zoo
My daughter-in-law has a friend visiting this weekend. I told her I would be happy to take them out and about somewhere. They chose to go to the zoo. So, we all went. There were 10 of us total, including my mom, my sister, both my sons, the grandkids, and my daughter-in-law and her friend. […]
Loving Actions
Today is the feast day of St. Therese of Lisieux. I received a bag in the mail today that had a picture of her and the words, “Do all with love”. My sister of the same name came this afternoon and I gave her the bag. In my opinion, everything she does is with love. […]
Blessed in Relationships
Last night I met with my prayer group online for the first time in over 2 months. I somewhat touched base with them during that time and it was great to be with them. I asked my son if someone would like to come sit with my mom so I could have this little bit […]
Our COVID Story
It all started a little over 2 weeks ago when we found out the facility that my dad is in had a couple cases of COVID-19. They were no longer allowing indoor visits, but we were happy to visit outside still masked, of course. We were also happy that we had all been vaccinated. After […]
Bonus Bishop
A couple of months ago, our Diocese ordained a new bishop. We watched the celebration online at that time. He seemed very kind and humble. He has been making his rounds of the parishes and was scheduled to celebrate the 9:30 Mass this morning at our church. We debated about going as we wanted to […]
In The House
It is hard to believe that my son and his family have been here for 3 weeks already. They were supposed to move into the house that they had set up to rent. However, there were tenants still living in the house who would not leave. The owner of house had started the eviction process […]
Thankful
I have much to be grateful for today. Most of all, I am thankful that my family is safe and ok and I spent another day able to be with or talk with them. I Found God today grateful for my family.
Among the Pines
Today I was grateful to have a little time to myself. I spent a couple hours with my family. Then I went to one of my favorite parks, sat under a tree, and read some of the Psalms. I would take a break every now and again, listen to the breeze blow through the branches, […]
Cooking Together
My son was told he would be able to move into the rental house today, but the previous tenants have not been cooperating and were still in the house. It’s a very frustrating situation. So my son and his family spent much of the day with us, which I didn’t mind at all. I had […]
