Successful Shopping
My son’s fiancee’s mother and I have been putting off buying a dress for the wedding. She has had surgeries, and my body has been changing for the past year. The wedding is 2 months away now, so we made a date to go shopping today. My son’s soon to be mother in law had […]
Picking Out the Suit
Today I had the amazing privilege to go with my son to pick out a suit for his wedding day. He had tried a couple of stores, but struggled to find something that fit him properly. He picked me up and while we were on our way to the shop, he told me about the […]
Shopping Online
There are several things that I have been wanting/needing to get to help make things a little easier for my mom. I shopped several stores here in the city with no luck. Finally, I gave in and shopped online. It was a long, tedious process, but I hopefully found what I was looking for. Even […]
An Outing
After another good night’s sleep, my mom had good energy this morning. It was a sunny, beautiful day so I thought it would be good to get my mom -and myself- out of the hotel room. Not too far away was Scheels sporting goods store. I got my mom bundled up so she wouldn’t get […]

Gifts For Elderly
Every year I choose 3 tags from the church’s giving tree at Christmas time. I have been choosing kids that are the same age as my grandchildren. Then my grandchildren come shopping with me to pick out the gifts. This weekend as I was perusing the tree, I learned that the parish chose to give […]
Bonus Shopping
I found myself with a little free time today, so decided to stop by the local thrift store. I wanted to find a couple pairs of pants for my mom as many that she has just aren’t fitting right and are uncomfortable. As I entered the store, I was greeted with a plethora of Fall […]
Wonderful Weekend
We had a wonderful weekend here. My out of state brother came for a few days. One day, my other brother, sister and her husband came to the house as well. We took advantage of the opportunity to celebrate my brother’s birthday, which is next week. While the siblings were together, we looked through some […]
Picking Up Groceries
I found myself at the end of the week without having made a trip to the grocery store. For several different reasons, each time I planned on going, it didn’t work out. So, early this morning I made my shopping list and ordered it online. This afternoon, my mom and I went to go pick […]
