Happiness
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, […]
Playing with Poodle Pups
A friend of mine breeds poodles. The last litter there were only 2 puppies, but I had fun playing with them. She has a new litter now with 9 puppies. They are 7 weeks old. I got to go for a visit today. Raising 9 puppies took up the whole main floor of her house. […]
Our Oktoberfest
Since I learned that my grandson will be moving soon, it seemed necessary to have my family over before he leaves. Not only that, both my son’s birthdays are coming up, so we had much to celebrate. After talking about what kind of food to have, we decided on German. It was somewhat surprising since […]
Gift of a Blanket
The other day I received a notice from my church that there were some handmade blankets available to give to the people who are homebound. They were knitted or crocheted by a ministry in the parish specifically for the purpose of sharing them with others. Since I visit a woman who has dementia weekly and […]
Sneak Peeks
Over the past couple of days, my son and his new wife have been sharing sneak peeks of their wedding photos and a super sweet video. I’m crying all over again, feeling so blessed and happy for them. I Found God today in the blessing of my son’s wedding.
Stitches Out
It has been 2 weeks since I had the cancer spot removed from above my eye, in my eyebrow area. I had a lovely multicolored black eye, which still lingers. This afternoon I went back to the doctor’s office and had the stitches taken out. I was pleasantly surprised at the outcome. Typically I am […]
Speed of God
This morning after breakfast, my brother hitched up his camper, fastened his dog in his truck, and left for the winter. He is heading to Arizona but will stop at beautiful sites on his way. After he left, I cleaned up the cabin a bit and enjoyed the fresh mountain air and scenery before I […]
Happy Dance
I was blessed to spend another beautiful day in nature at the cabin. It seemed like every time I went outside there were more and more aspen leaves turning from their summer green to their autumn yellow. My brother, his dog, and I took a long walk. He showed me a quiet little spot off […]
Home From Honeymoon
This evening I made the drive to the airport and back to pick up my son and his new wife. They spent several days in Germany seeing the sights and attending Oktoberfest in Munich. They shared some photos in an online album during that time. They fit right in with their German attire and were […]
Race Team Dream
I printed some photos of the wedding and put them in a little book to show them to people. I figured it was easier than passing my phone around. As I was showing them to some friends today, we talked about my grandchildren and what they were doing. I shared that my older grandson had […]
