Just Get Me Through

A friend and I were talking via text yesterday afternoon about the crazy schedules in our lives right now. It seems like we have just gotten up and before we know it the sun is setting, and the day has flown by. We’re juggling work, and home life, weekdays and weekends are filled, and the…

Home Sweet Home

Well, exactly three months later, we are finally back home in our place. As with all construction or remodeling, things took longer than planned, but I’m telling myself not to focus on the length of time but instead to enjoy being back in our home. It was late last night when we moved the last…

Father Forgive Them

Today is the second day of the Triduum, Good Friday. The day that Jesus fulfilled the scripture, having completed all that he was asked to do. Last year in this little blog I shared my thoughts about Good Friday, this most solemn day. I reshare that blog here as I truly don’t believe there is…

Weekend of Messages

I took some time off over the weekend from this little blog. I needed to let my mind rest a bit, and we had a busy few days at church. I mentioned on Friday that our Bishop was in town for his annual visit, so many events scheduled, including confirming many parishioners 🙂 . He…

Being Productive

I pretty much ask Father every day to guide me to do His work, as I work. There are those days when I look at the clock and wonder where they day went and wonder just what have I accomplished. Don’t get me wrong there is usually a list of things I’ve “done”, but did…

Opening and Closing Doors

I’ve shared here in previous little blogs that I have a close friend, a priest, who shares a scripture reading and morning reflection each day with me. I’ve come to start my day with these, even before I have my morning chat with Father. I time things so that I can read the message from the…

Equipped

One of the benefits of this fitness journey that I began at the start of the year is that I notice I’m sleeping better. I’ve always been a light sleeper. It drives my husband crazy. He’ll come just to give me a kiss goodnight, thinking I’m asleep, only to startle me out of my light…

Humbleness

I’ve found myself praying for this lately, the ability to be humble and to listen to how Father would like me to move through different situations. I guess I’ve grown in my relationship with Him because I sense my conversations with Him have changed. I find myself asking for Father to help me to have…

The Difference a Store Makes

Last week, I shared an experience my husband and I had at the grocery store in this little blog. It was about the service at the check-out line and the checker’s visible unhappiness. The title of that little blog was “It Made Me Sad.” It did make me sad, seeing how unhappy the young man…

A Little of This and That

I’m finding myself running a little behind as I sit down to write this little blog this morning. Time has gotten away from me. The weather outside is cold and rainy and I’ve spent too much time trying to determine where my winterish clothes are 🙂 . So this morning I’m going to fall back…
