Summer Staycation

Summer vacation, ahhh how I love thee. Actually, it’s been quite a while since my husband and I have taken a full week off. Even though it is a staycation of sorts, I’m excited for the downtime, oh and the beach, fishing, and pool time don’t hurt either 🙂 . Yes friends, I’m going to…

Different but Together

My brother and I have been having this humorous discussion recently via text. You see he tends to like cooler temperatures, and of course, I love hot weather, hence why I live in SW FL. Anyway, the conversation began a few weeks ago as we’re trying to find a time for him and my sister-in-law…

In the Old Days We Used a Pencil

I’ve recently noticed a push of sorts to move technology so far into our lives that we won’t be able to step away from it. We’ll be dependent on it. I’m guessing this post will not be popular with some folks, but alas, I will share my thoughts anyway 🙂 . Let me give a…

Look I Can Do These Cool Things

Yesterday in this little blog I mentioned the rains here in SW FL this time of year. I mentioned how beautiful the skies can be and how I couldn’t understand how anyone couldn’t believe in God when they see these sights. Well, last night I think Father was saying, “Well you think that was something,…

Friday, My Day

OK, so you all know that Saturdays are usually what I call my day. A little slower to rise, no set schedule, (usually), and just a relaxed day. Well, yesterday at work I found myself with pretty much the office to myself. Our part-time janitor was there in the morning and cleaned the office. We…

When You Don’t Know – Pray

I had a plan for today’s little blog, but I’m having second thoughts about it. Sometimes Father just nudges me that timing isn’t right for sharing certain thoughts. That’s kind of where I’ve found myself this morning. So having said that, I found myself looking at a blank blog page, 🙂 . Well, what do…

Summer Soiree

Last night we enjoyed one of our first summer gatherings. I think I’ve mentioned these little outings before. In the summer, our church organizes one monthly dinner with a local restaurant. Parishioners volunteer to work with the restaurant with a set menu and price and to host the evening. During the “off-season,” as we call…

Pssst…It Will Get Out

Last week a friend of mine sent me a text message. He said that my daily posts of this little blog were not showing up in his morning social media feed. He used to see them not long after I published the little blog. Now, he said, “It’s several days later before I see them”.…

The Dads No Longer Here

I have mixed emotions about Father’s Day. I love celebrating my husband and all that he is to our family. He is without a doubt the best dad, Opa, and Godfather to our family. He can have a conversation about anything, he loves to get in and play with our grandkids, well our kids too…

The Roots In the Window

My husband and I were chatting last night before dinner. I wandered over to the bay window in our kitchen to look at an aloe plant that sits on our kitchen table. It really does love where it’s positioned, it seems like every day there is a new leaf appearing. It has grown to be…
