The Random Pile

You all know that there are days when my thoughts don’t quite come together for this little blog. Most of the time, I have an idea of what I want to share here, but there are times when I start to type and before I realize it, what I’m writing just doesn’t come together, and…

Emily Rea One Year Later

If you’ve been following this little blog for the past year, you know the story about Emily Rea. She is the niece of the dear friend of mind. Emily went missing one year ago today. She planned a short paddleboard outing at the Hungry Horse Reservoir in Flathead County, MT but she never came home.…

Make a Plan and Do

I have a new team member, and I’m so thankful. Yesterday was her first day and as you could expect it was a little hectic. That first week of training always is. Things came together nicely, though, and even though we were busy, we accomplished a great deal. I was thinking about the little training…

The Busy & The Littles

I have a busy day ahead, yes, yes, I know, I am not alone on that front. Today, my new team member starts. I shared a little about her a few weeks ago. Although I know the next few weeks will be even busier with training, by the end of the summer, I look forward…

Lessons from Mahjong

When you read the title of today’s little blog you might think I’ve taken up playing the game that is almost as popular as pickleball. I can assure you, I have not, although it is on my list of things to do upon retirement, learning how to play Mahjong that is. So what’s up with…

Just Call

Our relationship with Father isn’t rocket science. That’s an interesting way to start this little blog, isn’t it? What I mean is, that He is here with us, He’s right here waiting for us to call on Him. This morning as I sat down outside, I rubbed my little wooden cross in my fingers and…

His Words Comfort

My daily talks with Father are many times like conversations. I share my thoughts and ask for support with whatever may be happening at the time. I ask for guidance and forgiveness, and I even joke with Him. Yes, I pray for others each morning and evening, and I give thanks for the many blessings…
