Better Than Yesterday

My simple prayer this morning as I rode my bike with Father is the title of today’s little blog. I mentioned a few weeks ago that I had slightly changed my morning routine. Instead of just sitting on the lanai and spending a few moments each morning with Father, I spend a little more time…

Through the Haze

If you’ve followed this little blog for very long, you know that I have the pleasure of working with a 65+ senior golf group. They hold two outings a year, and I oversee the planning of those events and the general operations of the group. I’ve made some wonderful friends, many of whom have been…

R and R

It’s an abbreviation for “rest and recuperation”. I’m not sure if the military first coined the abbreviation or not, that I guess, is for another blog 🙂 . I know that we civilians have used it for as long as I can remember. I think back in the day, and probably still today, the military…

Her Presence

This day rolls around each year. That’s sort of funny to say, isn’t it? You could say that about every day of the year. The calendar has a way of repeating itself each year. Well, for the past 29 years, I’ve looked at March 10th through a different lens. You see, my mom went to…

Lessons in Odd Places

I’ve shared recently that I’m working on a rather large project at work. We’re revamping our website, and if you’ve worked on this type of project, you know that it requires being methodical in how you accomplish it. It’s so easy to go down rabbit holes, and before you know it, three hours have passed.…

Love…Every Day

Another Valentine’s Day rolls around. A day when we celebrate love. A day filled with hearts, cards, chocolate, flowers, and all the things associated with love. We share these little gifts to show those we love that we care. What would happen, though, if we approached every day the way we do Valentine’s Day? I…

Laugh at Yourself

I believe Father gave us the gift of laughter for many reasons. You’ve probably heard that it takes fewer facial muscles to laugh than to frown. Well, that alone should tell us we should be laughing more. I got home a little later than usual last night, to say it was a strange day, well,…

Going Back

I haven’t had the chance to capture a nice sunrise or sunset recently. It’s been cold and windy most nights when we’ve left the office, and stepping out on the beach only increases the cold and wind. Ya, I know, I’ve gotten pretty whimpy lately. So, I’ve been going back through my hundreds of sunrise…

I Gave You These

My husband “scheduled” a call with his younger brother last night. I know it sounds kind of formal, but really, it was just making the time for them to chat. With the time difference and work schedules, it’s been difficult for them to connect. So after dinner last night, he made his way to his…

Check In

Well, the crazy weather continues. Yesterday, while leaving work, my husband and I noticed all of the communities here in Naples covering their flower beds. I, too, checked in with our church landscaper to make sure he had a plan to protect ours. There is a cold snap, a pretty good one heading our way…
