Longest Uno

Last night my son’s went out to celebrate their birthdays together. So my grandchildren came over to our house for a game night. We tried to think of a game that we could all play from age 7 to 90. My mom suggested cards. I remembered we had Uno and the boys liked playing that. […]

Uplifting Weekend

About 35 years ago I started working a 5 year stent at Target. During that time, I became good friends with many of my coworkers. We would get together, celebrate milestones, camp, and even travel together. We had a lot of fun, but also had serious life conversations. From early on, we always called one […]

The Good Book

Since we are in a cleaning out mood, my mom has been going through her bookcase. Today she pulled out a funny illustrated paperback named, *The Good Book, by Matthew, Mark, Luke, and John as told to David Evans.” It’s just a short book with humorous captioned cartoon type drawings. The one she called me […]

Sleepover 1

Tonight 2 of my grandchildren are spending the night as their parents enjoy some time away. It is a busy blessed day. I’ll elaborate tomorrow. I Found God today in my grandchildren.

More Crazy Wildlife

In the dining room, there is a large window that faces the yard with the large pine tree that holds the hawk’s nest. The grassy area has a rod iron fence around it with a sidewalk and street on the other side. We like looking out at the squirrels, birds, bunnies, and people walking their […]

It’s a Big One

Yesterday was my birthday. Yes, it was a big one. I started the day by visiting my dad with my mom, brother, and my son. When they told him it was my birthday, he sang the happy birthday song to me. I wish I had my phone ready to record it, but I did not. […]

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. […]

The Race Around

We decided to go out for a walk after dinner tonight. My sister was here, so the 4 of us headed out. At the end of our sidewalk the familiar question arose – which way should we go? I suggested we start out going different directions and see who makes it around the circle first. […]

Funny Dog Sitter

This evening as we headed out for a walk, we were met by a little barking ball of white fluff. The neighbor was walking her daughter’s dog who she was sitting for. She had a retractable leash on the dog, but didn’t know how to use it and the leash was locked with a very […]

Energy and Laughter

I am so blessed to have siblings who came to stay at the house for a couple of days so I could take a trip to see my grandchildren. Travelling was somewhat different only in the fact that everyone wore masks. Other than that, the airports and flights were jam packed. I was glad my […]
