It Takes Time

One of the things I miss the most about living in a condo is having a large yard with an area for a garden, and lots of flower beds and pots. I used to love the spring and summer months, when I could just dig in the dirt. Now granted, I was never a master…

When Two Become One

I had planned to write a short little blog this morning about our special day. You see, today is our wedding anniversary 🙂 . I’ve known my better half for over 40 years and can’t think of anyone else I would have rather spent those years with. Yes, we’ve had our challenges, all married couples…

Tending the Garden

We have a small area on the west side of our parish hall. It’s located in the children’s wing of our campus, and we call it the Children’s Garden. Within this garden are plants that were purposefully planted there. Plants and trees that have wonderful smells, feel soft to the touch, or, better yet, bear…

How ‘Bout Brunch

Later this morning, we’re going to treat ourselves to brunch with friends we haven’t seen in quite a while. Actually, that’s not entirely true. We see them almost every week. They are neighbors and we’ll chat briefly while their fur baby is walking them in the mornings 🙂 . However, we haven’t been able to…

Twenty Seven Later

Yesterday I was meeting with a group of people. We have a new group that is being made available at our church, and a few of us are beta testing it. It allows the facilitators to go through the curriculum and make sure the process flows the way they would like. I volunteered to participate,…

Goodness of God

Happy Saturday, everyone. You know me, a little later start, a little longer morning chat with Father, a little less routine to enjoy this beautiful morning. This morning, I did just a few little things around the house. Tended to some plants outside, listened to the birds as they went about their morning search for…

Trust to Heal

This morning, friends, I come to this little blog with a request. As I look back on this week, I’ve seen so many who are hurting. Some friends have health issues causing physical pain, some who are saying goodbye to loved ones and their hearts ache, others are dealing with uncertainty in their jobs. I…

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…
