• Lines of Enforcement

  Do you remember not so long ago colleges were requiring shots for students to even go back to online learning on top of being back in Campus for classes? Now a group is mad for another reason. Nothing about this situation was mandatory. Auburn University has a student group that recently saw an interest in…

• Parading Through Town

  My niece was in a dancing group in the Homecoming Parade. She is a Laker and my brothers and I went to Dugger and were Bulldogs so it felt weird to be there in a way. I have never been to their Homecoming Parade before and most importantly last year I was working and missed…

• Frustration

  Over twenty-four hours since our last message. Why does this make such an impact on me. We had exchanges early yesterday. So why today, have I heard absolutely nothing again? Sometimes I hate knowing him so well that I can picture him working late as I know he has done so repeatedly. I know what…

• Blowing Us Away

  Monday morning Mom and I walked as usual. Then the rest of the day was blown to the wind. Out of the blue I decided this time I would go with my parents to Grandma’s I hadn’t felt good for a few weeks staying away for a while. Also thinking I personally didn’t need to…

• Wildlife Moments: Monday

  Again Monday morning, I went outside to see how the temperature felt at the front door. If I go to the back door it’s always colder than it really is outside. So I go to the front, usually. I don’t usually see snails on the house first thing in the morning. So when I saw…

• Surreal

  Out of the entire last 24 to 48 hours I have been selfishly seeking prayers for Grandma. For some reason, I knew this would be so difficult for her to grasp. Aunt Carol was her right hand for so many things. Then this morning hearing how she took the news last night made me feel…

• A Prayer… Softly Answered

  My Aunt has had a difficult year and has been physically, emotionally and spiritually tested. Today has been emotional even not being at the hospital with the others in the family. I have to admit I feel a bit fried and have cried sporadically today. I have a chunk of Grandma’s family photo stash and…

• Evidence

  When my Grandpa Leo died I had no idea how much that would turn me upside down in a way. Music was my childhood I lived and breathed music. I sang while cleaning and washing dishes my grandparents, parents and uncles were always scaring me in the middle of singing high the notes. They seemed…

• Saying Goodbye… A House of Memories

  Now that a dumpster is on the premises makes this phase even more stark. No one knows what will happen and who will get the house yet. Before we get to that step we need to clean up the house and find the little treasures of our grandparents that have trinkled down through the family…

• Time to Relax

  This weekend I knew my parents had plans and my brother went with them. I had two motivations having the house to myself and enjoying it and secondly time to ponder and write. It turns out I got a little bit of both done Saturday. For a while I was beginning to wonder; I felt…
