Living His Dream
My grandson texted me yesterday saying that I would never guess what he would be doing last night. I made a lot of random guesses that were pretty funny and saved the best for last. He moved almost a year ago to chase his dream of working with race cars. He got a job with […]
Winning Gold
I was talking with an elderly gentleman today in his 90’s. He has trouble with his eyes and they always look red and irritated. I always wonder how much it effects his vision. I was actually driving behind him for a little bit and he seemed to do just fine. He told me about a […]
Getting Bigger
My son and daughter in law have been going to the doctor twice a week to have ultrasound checks on their baby. She has been very tiny for a long time and the doctor doesn’t really know why. She was in the 1 percentile for size, which is why they started monitoring her so often. […]
Days God Gave
I had some weird dreams last night. One of them was about packing books. There were people at the house moving things out and they were waiting for me to get the books packed, which was never ending. I would wake up and remember that I didn’t need to pack anything right now. Then I […]
Friend’s Courage
I was talking with a friend of mine today who is nearing 80 years old. She is getting ready to move, which she is not looking forward to. She said she had hoped that her last move would have been her last one. That is what she had planned. Unfortunately, things took a turn for […]
Swapping Stories
Today I visited with a couple people and told them about the sale of the cabin and how hard it was. They were empathetic and had stories of their own. One talked about his mom having to sell the house he grew up in. Before the closing, everyone had an opportunity to go in to […]
The Closing
My realtor picked me up this morning and we headed over to the title company to close on the sale of the cabin. The buyer’s realtor came as well, even though the buyers had signed their part of the documents electronically yesterday. It was nice to have her there as we got a better picture […]
Years of Enjoyment
My brother and I finished emptying and cleaning the cabin today. As we were working, the buyer’s realtor stopped over to walk through. The buyers live in another state, so she was relaying the details to them. She said they are planning on the cabin being a vacation home and eventually their primary residence. She […]
Labor of Love
My family and I have spent the last few days working hard at clearing out the cabin. My brother has been staying at the house and working on it for a couple of months already. This weekend, my sister joined us as we had a big moving sale. Many of the people who came were […]
Following His Lead
I got a phone call from my realtor yesterday and we agreed to move up the date for closing the sale of the cabin. I arrived at the cabin today and saw our friend on the way who had just arrived. We hugged it out and cried a bit. It is bound to be an […]
