• A Bad Night and Rocky Morning

  Who would have thought one phone conversation could create such discontent? Yesterday was a long day after an exhausting emotional weekend. Plus we keep hearing about more deaths. I had a couple back and forth messages between my cousin about 4 deaths within the past 3 weeks. Then yesterday after we got to Aunt Helen’s…

• My Monday

  For a few seconds I didn’t think we would get our walk in. I got up and didn’t want to physically leave the bed. I had to take my pill though, so I forced myself to take it. Then went back to bed for a couple minutes more. Somehow I found the strength to get…

• Craft Shop

  This weekend has been a whirlwind. My Etsy shop is finally online. However, only two items are on it due to various reasons from this week. I am excited and anxious about this whole thing. This has been my project since at least April. I am finally live. It has taken months to get over…

• My Thoughts This Very Sad Sunday

  This past week had been a good week. Monday and Tuesday we said our earthly goodbye to my Great-Great Uncle Dick who had already been reunited with loved ones and who finally got to meet Christ. It was sad only because we are left behind, he no longer deals with pain or tears. We even…

• 1776

  The name William Daniels didn’t mean as much to me until yesterday. After I realized no other Independence type movie was to be on within this guide I turned to the Movie channel and was pleasantly surprised to find one specific show. It was called 1776 but it was a movie adaptation of the Broadway…

• Chinese Food and Memories

  Yesterday after the funeral we were hungry. As of Sunday morning our refrigerator decided to halfway die on us. Thank goodness for the extra fridge downstairs. We would not have survived the past few days without it and would have lost a lot of food in the process. In order to cook though it has…

• Cemeteries… A Peaceful Solitude

  Heading back to the Cemetery this morning almost always feels good. It means exercise time and about half of the time we can say it is actually peaceful. I guess we have to have a reason to pay the mowers right! There are times they beat us and vice versa. Today once again they beat…

• Saying Goodbye For Now

  This morning I have to admit I was a bit irritated. I got up early and was ready to walk by 7 am. Mom had taken off with my brother to get milk so I got a little flustered by this when we have been trying to get up early to walk and today was…

• Fleeing For Our Lives…

  Mom and I enjoy walking. Thankfully we have gotten back up to a half an hour routine. Of course we do walk in the local cemetery. I have mentioned before it is where a lot of family and friends stones are standing tall. The reason we walk there is because it’s really just a nice…

• Tornado Alley

  A few days of not having more than one child and we are still recuperating. Last night Dad couldn’t even use the printer because of some girls printing and printing Lilo and Stitch pictures. It took me and Dad nearly 10 minutes to figure out how many times they had forced this to print over…
