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…

Don’t Blink
I’ve mentioned in this little blog before how quickly time seems to be moving these days.  Like weren’t we just ringing in the new year, and here we are just weeks from Thanksgiving?  I don’t know about you but it seems like I’ve just walk into the office, then the next time I look up it’s 3:30…

Stop and Look Around
Over the past week or so I’ve been seeing some beautiful pictures on social media. Everyone is posting pictures of the change of the seasons. Now some of those changes, while beautiful, hmm, I’m ok with seeing from a distance, (the snow for instance). I’ve been seeing gorgeous pictures of the fall colors in the…

Sunday Thoughts
Yesterday my husband and I attended the funeral of a parishioner who had become a friend over the past few years. Admittedly I’m closer to his daughter as I see her more frequently. George was 97 and lived such a wonderful life of service and faith. Not long after meeting him years ago, we learned…

Bringing Peace
I’m not sure if you experience this, but sometimes I find myself getting into a rut when I talk with Father. What I mean is, I find that when I’m lifting prayers, I’m just repeating the same thing each day, if that makes sense. This morning I stopped myself to just converse with Him. Like…

A Humble Patriot

If you read this little blog regularly you know that I have the honor of working with a local disaster relief organization that formed…

Do You Know Me?
We had dinner with some friends last night. We’ve known them for several years and we’ve shared about our lives before moving to Florida. We know what they do for a living, we know about their children, that kind of thing. Last night though, we had wonderful conversation, sharing even more about our backgrounds, growing…

The Change Of The Family
I’m guessing I’m like most people in that as I’ve grown older my relationship with my parents and my siblings has changed. My parents have been gone for more than 20 years, but even in those few years before they passed away my relationship with them changed. I confided in them more, grew closer to…

Take The Detour
I’m not a fan of the days getting shorter. The whole drive to work in the dark, drive home in the dark thing, nah, not a fan. However, I have to admit, the sun setting a little earlier allows my husband and me to stop on the way home from work and catch a sunset…

Furfriends Community
We’re moving into fall and here in SW Florida that means the return of many “seasonal residents”. We lament the days when we see the “car trucks” returning. These are the trucks that are transporting the vehicles as their owners fly to their winter residences. The return of the “snowbirds” as we call them, well…
