Grateful
Close Friends, Lifted Spirits, Good Care
I started this morning by making cinnamon rolls with my grandson. Then I headed off to see some friends that I haven’t seen for a long time. I met my prayer group for breakfast. Of course, there were lots of hugs and tears all around as we shared our significant moments with each other. One […]
Surgery, Concern, and Prayers
I was so happy to talk with my sister today. It was good to hear her voice. She sounded more awake and aware and able to hold a little bit of a conversation. She told me the details of how the surgeon placed a rod in her lower leg from her knee to her ankle […]
Meeting the Granddaughter
I finally made it safe and sound to my son’s house to see my new granddaughter. There was no problem traveling and the weather was good all the way. When I got to their house, there were hugs and tears all around. First my son, then the baby, my daughter-in-law, the baby, the grandsons, the […]
Mom and Me Day
They have been doing some work on the road in the complex we live in. Today they were seal coating the side right next to our home. My mom had voice therapy, so we were trying to figure out how that was going to work. I had parked the car outside of the complex in […]
Letting It Out
By the time I ended my day yesterday, I had a headache, was exhausted, somewhat sad, and a little cranky. So I went out for a leisurely walk. I try not to put my problems on anyone, as I know everyone has struggles of their own. But I decided to call my sister. We chatted […]
Unselfish Actions
My brother came last week to stay with my parents as I had originally planned to take a trip to visit my children and grandchildren. When my dad fell, however, it was obvious that more care was needed at home, so I decided to postpone the trip. But my brother continued to stay at the […]
His Little Buddy
My dad is trying his best to recover from his fall and is improving a little at a time. He was feeling pretty bad today and having stomach issues – most likely due to the medication he has been taking. He has spent a lot of time lying down and resting. I was glad that […]
A Nasty Fall
So I have missed a couple of days blogging due to tending to my dad who took a nasty fall. This is what happened: Some friends of mine were in a nearby city at a convention, so I decided to go and meet them for dinner. We connected at the hotel and were just about […]
Love, Support, Prayers
Today I received an unexpected card and note from a far away friend. It was full of news and encouragement. I was touched most deeply by knowing that she prays for me often. It is heart warming and humbling. I Found God today in love, support, and prayers from far away.
Full of Goodness
My parents and I left the house early this morning and started with doctor appointments. First my mom saw the pacemaker clinician. A few weeks ago we connected the pacemaker monitor and transmitted the stored information about the device and how my mom’s heart was working with it. The clinician said that the information showed […]
