Father in the Pool

Yesterday in this little blog I shared that a group of friends had put together a surprise for a mutual friend/mentor of ours. We all have gathered here in SW Florida, some coming from as far away as California to spend time with a wonderful woman who has touched our lives. I think it’s safe…

The Surprise

Sometimes you just have to plan a surprise 🙂 . A group of friends has been planning a gathering to surprise one of our mentors, (in my past career). We’ve all “grown up” under this wonderful woman. She helped many of us get started in a profession that became a career. She’s one of the…

Spring Storms

I had friends traveling all over yesterday. They were in Connecticut, South Carolina, Ohio, and everywhere in between. During our text conversation last night, they were all trying to make it home. The storms in the Midwest and Ohio Valley were awful. Flights were delayed at every turn. It was well after midnight before everyone…

In My Heart

It’s been a busy week at work, so much so that I am trying to figure out where the week went. When you combine that with settling back in at home, I guess you could say I’ve been a little out of sorts. This morning as I sat and spent time with Father I’m embarrassed…

Another Chicken

When our youngest was little, she and my husband used to run errands after work. They would stop by the bank, pick up a few things at the grocery store, or swing by Lowe’s to pick up something for the latest home project (the youngest really disliked that last stop). It almost became a game…

Seeing Differently

Over the weekend my husband and I did some spring cleaning, so to speak. We moved back into our home after having some remodeling done. It took longer than we expected, which admittedly was frustrating, but we are back home now and getting settled. We spent the weekend putting things away, wiping down pictures, putting…

Home Sweet Home

Well, exactly three months later, we are finally back home in our place. As with all construction or remodeling, things took longer than planned, but I’m telling myself not to focus on the length of time but instead to enjoy being back in our home. It was late last night when we moved the last…

Tidiness

This morning, as I sat down to write this little blog, I noticed a few files on the desktop of my laptop. I was doing some work last night for my senior golf group and realized I hadn’t saved the files in their folders. So, I did some quick clean-up work, putting them where they…

Respect in the Parking Lot

Yesterday afternoon my husband and I made our usual weekend trip to the grocery store. As we pulled into a parking space, my frustration set in as I noticed a cart just ahead of the space. It gets old that people can’t take the cart five feet further and put it in the cart coral…

Give the Week

On Sundays before heading to church, I like to take a little time to give thanks for the week ahead and a new beginning. Of course each day is a new day and filled with opportunities, but Sundays are kind of the reset I guess you could say. This morning I found a prayer that…
