A Surreal 48 Hours
Sunday was such a blessing and much more slow paced than today was for certain. I got to revel in my expanded church family for the morning service with Grandma and the evening service at another church with family and friends who are also very much like family. It was a soul-soothing day for me.…

A Prayer of Gratefulness
Heavenly Gracious Father, sometimes I forget how big You are day to day. I let the daily grind gnaw me down. Stress has been intrusive as well as physically with my allergies. Just in the last couple of days I have been sneezing more although I am pretty certain why and it has to do…

Remembering
Last night I had to came to a decision. After posting my one article of the day I thought I would have another one. Still I promised I would get to bed earlier than the previous two nights. I wanted to post my thoughts for these big anniversaries today. For 84 years Rosemary Alsman was…

The Day Before
Today was a nice day. It was good for our walk this morning and then this afternoon it turned. A front came in and it has been raining since, whether lightly or somewhat harder. I know it’s not completely the same, but I think about 1944 and what that day was like. It was a…

In both good ways and somewhat treacherous ways my Mom and I have felt the differences in moods and thoughts. Boy… it…

Timing! Isn’t It Amazing Sometimes!!
My parents and I didn’t get much time with Selena on Saturday the only time we got with her for the Holiday Weekend. All we had to look forward to was that this was our weekend coming up. The Timing really comes together so it seems God’s Timing is always best you know. After not…

Sewing Time
Getting to this point today has taken quite a while. Really too much time because of my battle with the allergies the last couple of months. I did what I could, but there were nights I shouldn’t have even had a needle in my hand because my head just wasn’t working right. Unfortunately I did…

A Time To Remember
Growing up in my family we got together and celebrated this holiday in true form. We also had three birthdays to add to this celebration most years. My parents birthdays and my Uncle Mike were usually together. Then Papaw Freddy would take us to the cemeteries we needed to see and know about who was…
