Helping Again
Before I started working my job with the CPA, I was helping an elderly couple that I know. While I was busy with my job, a friend who helped care for my mom was able to step in for me. I was glad that it worked out for everyone. Since I finished my job on […]
Finished Work
Today was the last day at my job working for the CPA. I enjoyed what I did, though it was more than I anticipated with longer days and a huge learning curve. But when all was said and done, I did learn the computer system, the filing system, and how to best work with my […]
Free Yardwork
I do occasionally waste time scrolling through Facebook videos and such. One set of videos that I have enjoyed is of a young man who has his own lawn care company and does work for free for people who are in need. He takes on yards that are extremely overgrown for one reason or another. […]
The True Cross
It is tradition to generate a crucifix at the Good Friday celebration. Tonight at church, they had 1 large cross for the congregation to touch, kiss, or respect in some way as we remembered that Jesus Christ died on that cross for us. It took a long time. As I was praying before and after […]
Gracious People
Yesterday I learned that there was a mistake made at work. I’m not even sure if I did it, but it was likely I had. I thought about it all night long and lost sleep over trying to figure out in my mind what might have happened. I prayed about it and tried to just […]
Beginning Holy Week Again
Each Palm Sunday offers something new. I’m sure part of it is due to the fact that I’m in a different place of life each year spiritually, mentally, and emotionally. Today at the beginning of Mass, we all went outside where the deacon read the Gospel, then gave the homily. Even though there were so […]
Feeding Time
Yesterday after work, a friend and I went to the zoo. It’s school break, so there were many families with children there too. But we saw many animals up and about. Since it was later, near feeding time, there was a lot of activity. My friend mentioned how amazing God is, creating all the different […]
Long Lost Cousin
My dad started his photography when he was still in high school, doing yearbooks and such. He even participated in camera clubs, submitting his best photos. We have a beautiful, large framed photo that he took of his “baby sister” in 1949, when she was 17 years old. My dad won an honorable mention for […]
Starting Phase 1
My older son and his family are beginning phase 1 of their grand adventure tomorrow. They have been wanting to move further east and my son got a job in the area they were looking at. Since my granddaughter is starting school break, this was a good time for them to all go out and […]
Having Guests
I really had a hankering for shepherds pie for St. Patrick’s Day and wanted to make some Irish soda bread to go with it. That makes so much food and I thought it would be fun to share it. I invited my sons and their families over. Most of them had other plans. So my […]
