Downtime
The weather today here in SW Florida is going to be beautiful, sunny, and much cooler and no rain in the forecast. The sky the last few days has been a pretty amazing shade of blue. Not much planned today after church and that’s a good thing. Perfect day to spend some one/one time with…

The Bat Signal
Over the past weeks since Ian, I’ve mentioned how I’ve met some pretty incredible people through volunteer efforts. Well, last night I was blessed to attend a small gathering with some of those incredible people. You see, a month ago I didn’t know these special people, but today, I feel like there has never been…

Ya, I Was Mad
I bet I got your attention with the title of todays little blog… Well, I was indeed mad last night. You see we had dinner with some friends who are, like many here, cleaning out their place to make way for it to be gutted. They needed a break, so I encouraged them to join…

Almost Home
There are mornings when I start this little blog and a song hangs in my head. This would be one of those mornings. This song, again one of my favorites speaks to so much of what we’re going through in this life. It gives a simple message that we truly aren’t here that long, and…

Football
Yesterday was a day filled with continued clean-up efforts. I met some new friends and realized how easy it is to get to know people 🙂 . Yesterday was of course also college football game day!

Receiving
Over the past several weeks since Ian, you all know I’ve been lending a hand to coordinate volunteers. These volunteers have been simply amazing. People I don’t even know have gone out to the homes of people they don’t even know, to help them clean up and rebuild. What I’ve also learned though is that…

Even If
Yesterday afternoon I went to pick up some things from a friend who has been up north for the summer. She and her husband live just across the street from the beach and their 1st-floor condo, as you might expect was severely damaged by Ian. Actually, her entire complex looks like a war zone. The…

The Youth
Sometimes they get a bad wrap. I know I’ve done it myself, commented on how our youth don’t want to work, are too wrapped up in their technology, their way of communicating is by text, not an actual conversation, you get the idea. I can’t help but wonder if we as parents have done them…

New Life
Yesterday afternoon I stepped away from volunteering activities to try and disconnect a bit. I went to the local nursery and picked up a few mums and a replacement plant for a cactus that was on our lanai and had definitely seen better days. Many of you I’m sure can relate to this, working in…

Just Do
Over the past week we’ve been helping at our church as we continue to clean up and repair after Ian. There is a sign up sheet to log in when you arrive and when you leave and what tasks you are working on. Parishioners from all walks of life are coming together to sweep, powerwash,…
