Climbing Rocks
My grandchildren are on school break this week and the weather has been amazing, so I wanted to take them out and about. Today we went to one of the nearby National parks. First we went into the visitor’s center and enjoyed the interactive displays that showed the history of the area and the wildlife […]
Disney on Ice
The other day my son asked if I wanted to go to Disney on Ice with him, his wife, and my granddaughter. It sounded like a pretty fun time, so I accepted his invitation. We went this afternoon. In the car was playing all Disney music and we sang along. I loved hearing my granddaughter […]
Doing Squats
I have been going to physical therapy for a couple of months now since I was experiencing so much lower back pain. I have been doing my best to take it slow and build up my stamina and strength, being kind to my joints. Today the therapist challenged me to do some squats. They have […]
Country Music
Today I brought Communion to the elderly woman who I have been seeing every week. I told her it was St. Patrick’s day. She said she went to St. Patrick’s church a long time ago. I told her I do too and that is where Communion came from. After she received, I showed her some […]
Unknown Pilgrimage
Today I went to Mass at the old church in the small town near the cabin. I had been there several times and would take my parents when we spent time at the cabin. As I looked around at the church, it appeared brighter to me. There were lights behind some of the statues that […]

I am spending this weekend at the cabin with my son and 2 grandsons. Today when we left the house to go into town, the gaggle of turkeys practically met us at the door. They didn’t have much fear and got very close to us. When we arrived in town our first stop was for […]
Finding Hope
A friend of mine is struggling as she goes through a divorce. I have been trying to help pack things up as they get ready to sell their house, which is very emotional as well. She invited me today to go look at a place that she is thinking of renting. She had a place […]
Dad Interviewed
I continue to sift through files, folders, and boxes of treasures. Today I found some more of my dad’s military information including housing, promotions, and awards. I also came across an airman’s magazine that included an article about him and the Air Weather Service. It highlighted their work watching the sun and doing their part […]
Finally Wellness
I spent some time with my son, daughter in law, and grandchildren today. My daughter in law has finally finished physical therapy since her ankle surgery in October. She is walking all around wonderfully now. After his 2 back surgeries, my son was finally walking upright and moving around without wincing. They struggled so much […]
Perfect Puppy
This morning I got together with my friend with the puppies. I asked if they were at their new homes yet. They are going this weekend. One was placed immediately. The other was supposed to go to a certain home, but it didn’t work out. My friend called the next person on the list and […]
