The Final Touch

My husband and I are traveling this weekend, making our way to his 50th class reunion. When we travel I try my best to book us on direct flights, with less chance of getting stuck somewhere or delayed. Well, that didn’t work so well yesterday. Just as I was leaving work to head home and…

Every Day is an Anniversary

Yesterday my husband and I celebrated our 37th wedding anniversary. We’ve known each other more than 40 years and at one point yesterday I thought, wow, that’s a long time 🙂 . We had a very simple wedding, celebrated with friends afterwards, and the next night my mom hosted a lovely dinner for our families.…

We Got This

My boss, (our Rector), has been on sabbatical for the last several months. I believe, (I guess I should know this), that it’s the first time he’s been gone for this long since he started almost 15 years ago. It’s been an interesting time over the past three months, in a good way actually. You…

As I was thinking about this little blog post this morning, doing what I often do, asking Father for guidance, the word forgiveness popped into my head. So I asked, “Ok Father, I write about forgiveness quite a bit,…

Lost With Father

When we moved to Florida many years ago, one of the things we gave up was a large yard. It provided so many opportunities to work with my hands; planting flowers, trimming roses, growing veggies, you get the idea. I miss having that space and spending time with Father doing those things. We live in…

Simple Notes

My granddaughter has always been a note-leaver. What does that mean you ask? Well, whenever she would come to our house my husband and I would find these little notes that she would leave for us. Usually, we’d find them on the desks in our offices. Just short little notes that were so special. When…

The I in Forgiveness

This week has been filled with various emotions, and my goodness it’s only Wednesday. I’m not sure how many of you have the same feeling. As I mentioned yesterday, I am sad that our country has come to this point. Like many, I’m uneasy about the events of last weekend. This great nation needs love…

Simple Saturday Sing-Along

Yay hey…it’s Saturday 🙂 . Putting in a little time with the new hobby I picked up, I mentioned that in a previous little blog earlier this week. More news to come on that as I get a little more comfortable in what I’m doing. Anyway, I thought a simple, yet so powerful song was…

The Promise & a Light Bulb

Last month in this little blog I mentioned a picture that sits by our bed, it’s a picture of my mom. Last night as I looked at that picture, like I always do while turning down the bed, I was reminded of something she told us before she died. She said she would let us…

We All Start Somewhere

Recently I’ve taken on a new hobby. I’m not going to get into all the details at this point, at least until I know more about what I’m doing. I’ve found an online group of people who have much experience with this hobby and last night I made my first post about being a “newbie”.…
