Happiness
Close Family
Yesterday my mom wanted to take a walk as the weather was mild. I wanted to get out somewhere other than around the housing complex. Then I remembered my son and his family moved into a house that is directly across the street from a beautiful “Reflection Pond” owned by the neighboring church. We went […]
Strange Mail Mix-ups
This evening when we got home from being out, I checked the front door for any deliveries. There was a small package on the ground. I have made sure I have extra bottles of Lourdes water to take along with me, or to give to other people. I ordered some about a month ago and […]
Simple Compliment
My mom joined her online exercise class this morning. One of the ladies complimented my mom on her outfit and said how sharp she looked. This meant so much to my mom that she brought it up at dinner. She wasn’t really thinking that she looked particularly stunning, but she felt good that the woman […]
Catching Up Double
Today I was surprised and overjoyed to get a phone call from not one, but two long time far away friends. I was able to catch up with both. We listened to each others’ stories and promised to continue to pray for one another. I felt very blessed. I Found God today catching up with […]

Grammy Day
My granddaughter’s school had their Fall Carnival today. It was a good opportunity to spend the day with her. I took her over to the school where she played games, won prizes, ate popcorn and saw new friends. She even overcame her fear by going through an obstacle course and sliding down a big slide. […]
Back Inside
I made an appointment for my mom and I to visit with my dad this afternoon. They have been scheduling only outside visits as they make their way through this COVID breakout. When we arrived we were given the good news that the facility is COVID free and could resume indoor visits. That was great […]
Crew at the Zoo
My daughter-in-law has a friend visiting this weekend. I told her I would be happy to take them out and about somewhere. They chose to go to the zoo. So, we all went. There were 10 of us total, including my mom, my sister, both my sons, the grandkids, and my daughter-in-law and her friend. […]
In The House
It is hard to believe that my son and his family have been here for 3 weeks already. They were supposed to move into the house that they had set up to rent. However, there were tenants still living in the house who would not leave. The owner of house had started the eviction process […]
