Father with Us

Last night we had dinner with a group of friends, we all go to the same church. It was a beautiful evening, it’s always great to get together and catch up. Even though we all go to the same church, we’re usually at different services so we are all kind of passing each other on…

What’s in Store Wednesday

Ahh, the middle of the week, we made it. You know these days are going by so quickly, so many of my friends have commented the same. Where does the time go? Having said that have you noticed though that your weeks tend to flow with the same feelings. Here’s what I mean, we usually…

Coffee Time

I’ve shared with you all that we have a great little community where I live. Several neighbors have fur babies and I love to get my snuggles in with these pups each day. Well, recently there have been a few neighbors in the community that have met at the corner around the same time, just…

A Friday Prayer

Does anyone else feel like it’s been a long week? I haven’t had a bad week, nothing earth-shattering, no major “are you kidding me” moments, it just feels like ok, it’s finally Friday. If you’re having those same feelings, well, welcome to Friday 🙂 . I don’t know what it is, but things do seem…

Trimming the Palms

This week a company has been in our neighborhood trimming our palm trees. Little did I know before moving here that though it takes them a while to grow tall, the fronds and other debris grow pretty quickly. Depending on the palm tree, you might find fronds on the ground, (you don’t want to be…

Souls and Sun Rays

The photo that I used for today’s little blog was taken not far from where we used to live in IL. You could say that we lived kind of “out in the country”, and the roads near us were small, with two lanes and many not even marked with lines. Anyway, one evening I was…

Dear Younger Me

Last night I didn’t sleep well, I woke up in the middle of the night, and of course, my mind started going. I’m sure none of you have had that happen 🙂 . As you try to think about anything to doze back to sleep, I found myself thinking about my childhood, my teens, my…
