Pizza Rolls in Heaven
Yesterday was an anniversary. It’s hard to believe that my mom has been gone for 28 years now. It’s interesting how your inner self knows when these types of anniversaries come. You may not actively be aware of the date, but inside you are. Then, when you say the date out loud, you instantly remember…

Odd, Sad, Human
Yesterday was an odd day. I’m sure you’ve had them too, days when you just feel out of sorts and you can’t put your finger on it. Admittedly, it started out on a bad note the minute I got to work and unfortunately I guess it just set the stage for me to be grumpy.…

A Little One
Over the past week or so, I’ve been sharing my experiences with some young adults in our community. Some experiences have been good, some not-so-good, with the good, I believe, outweighing the not-so-good. Well, Father keeps bringing youngsters into our path. Let me explain. As I’ve shared, my husband and I are staying in a…

Diner Chatter
My husband and I have a little habit when we travel. It’s become kind of fun, actually. I will get online and search for a local diner for breakfast before we leave the town/city where we’ve spent the night. We spent the night in Sarasota on Friday evening to have dinner with a good friend…

The Recipes & Memories
I’ve gotten into a little routine with our youngest daughter. We text each other pretty regularly around dinner time, sharing what we’re making for dinner. I’ll also ask her opinion on a particular spice she might use or how she would doctor up a certain dish. Last night my husband and I realized we hadn’t…

Christmas Memories
Something has struck me recently, just over the last few weeks. I have noticed on social media that people are playing a little remember when. It seems to me like this is occurring more this year than in past years, or maybe I’m just noticing it more. I see old pictures of past Christmas’, families…

Through the Ages
Yesterday we celebrated the birthday of our granddaughter. I mentioned in this little blog that it’s crazy how quickly time is moving these days. I guess it’s true that the older we get the faster it goes. Oh, thank you by the way, for wishing my granddaughter a Happy Birthday 🙂 . We had another…

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.…

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…

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…
