Sunday Morning of the 21st
Once Mom left my room and she and Dad headed towards Sullivan, I tried to go back to sleep. I had at least 3 alarms to make sure I woke up to prepare the Lasagna. Yet I had a heavy heart… I prayed over the situation and that help would be presented and somehow things…

September 21st…
Such a busy day for our family emotionally as it was physically. There are so many facets to this day like there were on Saturday, March 15th, the day after my earlier surgery this spring.

A Couple of Days…
Since Friday things have been building up, although in all reality it’s been going on a while longer. Trying to figure out how to walk on egg shells is how this feels for me thinking about writing about the last few days. It’s easy for me to broadcast my emotions, write about my thoughts and…

Wicked… Women of the Bible
There are some days when things seem off. Wednesday was that day for me. It was a week later after the assassination so I just imagine what his family feels like. I didn’t even meet him and he made such an effect, but that wasn’t solely my dysfunction. A couple of days later I realized…
