Priceless

Some events over the last few days had me thinking this morning as I sat down to talk with Father. If you’ve followed this little blog very long you know that I start my day with a chat. I usually find myself asking what He wants me to share here, but there are some days…

Emotional – That’s Father

Yesterday our priest who gave the sermon began by sharing a prayer that he prayed for his children each night. As he began to say the prayer he paused, tears came to his eyes and he stopped to compose himself. He closed his sermon with this same prayer, and again he had to stop as…

Nana’s

Yesterday in this little blog I shared how I felt Father was telling me to step away from the craziness of the days and to relax a little with him. Many of you commented on how you felt the same. I even saw some beautiful pictures on social media of many of you relaxing and…

Step Away

Last night was not the most restful and this morning I’m kind of wishing I had just gotten up when I first opened my eyes. Granted it was still dark outside but I’m thinking it still would have been better. You see I fell back asleep and then had the weirdest dream, which of course…

A Fish and a Sign

One of the fun things about living in SW FL, well, living anywhere by the water, is being able to fish pretty much whenever you can muster the time. I’ve always loved this activity. Probably comes from growing up with two older brothers, and of course, my dad loved to fish as well. I’m not…

Best Friends

I can’t believe another year has ticked away and my husband and I are celebrating another year together. Thirty-six years ago we said our “I Do’s”, in…

Soon school will be starting, fall sports, for us in SW Florida, increased traffic, and the hustle and bustle all the seasonal changes bring. For now, though,…

If it Ain’t Broke…

Last night my husband and I were making dinner. Caesar salad was on as a side dish and as I was making my dad’s famous dressing, my husband was washing and readying the romaine. We have one of those “salad spinners” where you put the chopped lettuce that has been washed, into the bowl, toss…

Favorite Pictures

You all know that of course some of my favorite pictures to take are sunrises and sunsets. Admittedly, living in SW Florida it’s a little difficult to catch a sunrise. Sunsets on the other hand, we’ll ya, those are a daily blessing around here 🙂 . This morning I was looking at some pictures, but…

TV Times and the Locals

Over the past few days, there have been interesting conversations happening wherever we have been. Well that’s kind of open-ended isn’t it 🙂 . On Friday evening my husband and I were at a new restaurant that opened a few months ago. Many friends have recommended it so we stopped in just for a beverage…
