Just Ask

I can’t believe how quickly this week has been flying by. It’s been silly busy, well I’m guessing you all are thinking, “Every week is busy”, these days. It just seems like the older we get, the faster time goes. I’ll leave that topic for another little blog. My week has been busy because one…

It’s Simple – Thank a Vet

A very simple little blog this morning friends. On this Veteran’s Day, I simply say Thank You to all of the men and women who selflessly dedicated or continue to dedicate their lives to protecting the freedoms of our country. The freedoms that we share, enjoy, and many times take for granted, are NOT free.…

Keep Going

This morning something rare happened, I actually had to wake up to my alarm going off. Most mornings, either my husband or I wake up way before and we are getting the morning started. Not so this morning. Now granted we got to bed later than usual so that had something to do with being…

We Still Surprise

I’ve mentioned our annual Christmas Market in this little blog over the last few months. It’s a big event at our church, taking place this weekend, and I’m head of our “Gourmet Canners”. If you had told me five years ago that I would be heading a canning committee at church I probably would have…

Imagining

For the first time in many months, my husband and I were able to catch a sunset from the beach last night. I know, those of you who don’t live near the water are thinking, “Oh how sad it’s been months since you saw a sunset from the beach”. However, when you live near a…

Staying Connected

Last night while my husband and I were cooking dinner my phone rang. It was our granddaughter and when I answered I put it on speakerphone so we could both chat with her. She was calling to let us know she had just found out she was selected for a new part-time job she had…

Finding, Healing, Praying

A few days ago in this little blog, I shared a story about a local elderly woman with dementia, she had wandered off and gone missing. The community has come together to search for her, and more importantly, has come together to pray and ask Father to guide the search. Well, I’m happy to report…

As We Grow

Once a month our little community holds a happy hour. Residents sign up to host it, which means decorating as you choose or don’t decorate, setting out the silverware and plates, and setting up the area for beverages. Everyone brings a dish to share and whatever they want to drink. Most people bring enough beverages…

When the Memory Fades

Lately, I’ve been thinking about my Father-in-Law. He passed away many years ago having battled Alzheimer’s for many, many years. The anniversary of his death is coming up in a few days and maybe that’s why he’s been on my mind. We also spent some time with family last weekend and to say his genes…
