My Intuition
Sunday I was able to post a few articles. I don’t know what it was in the air that day, though it was a different kind of day for me. I am not trying to quote Elizabeth from ‘When Calls The Heart’, but a Sunday was a big milestone for me and my boyfriend. When…

The Cruise Ship… Sinking
I find it fascinating that the year I was born some intriguing historical events happened. Including when I was about 5 months old Robert Ballard had used some amazing technology and found actual wreckage of the Titanic.

Our 3rd Anniversary
Yesterday was a day of poignant thoughts and memories. Grandma Rosie died in March of 2020, but her words follow me even now. She told me I would fall and fall hard for my Mr. Right. She was absolutely on the mark; I was the one who was skeptical. Three years ago on the 13th…

The Eclipse That Brought A Country Solidarity
Have you noticed something today? The news was almost entirely at least for the first half of the day if not most of the day about the Eclipse.

The Conclusion of Experiences and Reality
Thankfully the nurse made sure to ask for my phone number especially since I was the designated driver. Later in the lobby, I heard a lady say that the nurse had forgotten to get her phone number and it made things a little complicated, but the receptionist was able to help her out in a…

This Weekend
The news told us a month or so ago to be prepared for this weekend as if it would be a holiday weekend. Even the area churches are making a big deal of this. I know one specifically down in Vincennes and even my parents church will be letting people view this auspicious time in…

Experience Versus Reality
Have you had an experience where it was pretty much nothing like the way you thought it should be? That was this morning for us! I know that things happen and we can’t always anticipate what will happen and each scenario with every patient. I have lived through this in Dialysis Clinics. We prepare as…
