Living Vicariously
A friend of mine has been travelling recently. We are in a group text with several other friends. He went to Africa before Christmas and shared pictures from there, including wildlife he saw on safari, which was very exciting. Now he is in Guatemala for a friend’s wedding and is again keeping us in the […]
Sister’s Weekend
My sister came today for her birthday weekend. We had fun at the antique shop where she found a beautiful handmade purse with lots of pockets. It was just what she was looking for. Then we went out to lunch. After that we watched the football game. It was a nailbiter all the way through, […]
Stained Glass
As I was visiting a friend today, her daughter-in-law stopped over. She talked about an art class that she’s taking, learning to make stained glass. She told us all about the process, which is more complicated than I imagined. There is a pattern to make, an outline to follow, and sottering involved. I got lost […]
BINGO
I have a friend who loves to go and play BINGO. She and her sister and whoever else wants to will go maybe once a week or so. When I saw her at a get together, a couple of us decided to join them. It has been years since I have gone to play and […]
Lake Powell
This morning at church, the priest started talking about a trip he and his family took to Lake Powell when he was 13 years old. They rented a houseboat to live and travel on during the vacation. I was immediately taken back about 35 or so years ago when me, my husband at the time, […]
Craft Time
For Christmas, my granddaughter received some new craft kits. We decided we should have craft time, so we got together at my house today. My daughter in law brought a crocheted blanket she has been working on. My granddaughter brought a rainbow unicorn latch hook rug. I got out a diamond painting I have been […]
All the Lights
The weather was mild today, so I took advantage of the opportunity and put up some Christmas decorations and lights on the outside of my house. I didn’t do too much, but enough to look festive. Later in the afternoon, my sister and I bundled up and went to the Electric Safari at the Zoo. […]
Missed My Sis
My sister arrived last Saturday and stayed for the week. It had been quite a long time since we have shared the house for any length of time and I have missed her. She had to work a couple days, but I was happy that we spent a lot of time together. We cooked, played […]
Full Of Thanks
I felt so blessed on Thanksgiving this year and had so much to be grateful for. As soon as I awoke, friends and family started sharing messages of gratitude. I decided to go to Mass in the morning. It was such a beautiful way to start the day. There was a bell choir directed and […]
Continued Birthday
Today may be the last day of my week long birthday celebration and I felt like I received so many gifts. This morning I talked to my aunt who turned 90 on our mutual birthday. I thanked her for the card and beautiful blouse she sent me from her favorite QVC. She told me about […]
