Update

Thank you so much for all of your prayers! My aunt is still in the hospital – she’s doing 100% better, though, and they have planned to do the mitral valve replacement surgery on Tuesday morning. My cousin said that her color is good, she’s been resting for most of the last couple [...]

Please Pray

Just a word – my aunt (my mom’s sister) is back in the hospital. She has congestive heart failure (CHF), and this is the third hospitalization in as many months. The doctors are looking at the results of a recent trans-esophageal echocardiogram to see if she is a candidate for a balloon procedure [...]

Cleaning House – Again

A post last week, I believe, came from this inner track my mind has been running on for the last few days. I jotted some notes during the sermon on Sunday that had nothing to do with the sermon topic, and they showed up. I sat in the pew playing Solitaire on the [...]

The report as far as the ease of doing it:  it’s pretty easy to get into the routine.  In a way, it’s been a good thing, because it has forced me [...]

Morning Chuckle

This little guy was in the parking lot this morning, so I couldn’t help but take his picture:
I’m not sure what he is – he looks like a little cartoon ant with a helmet – but it was just so unexpected and cute that I had to share it!

DIY – Sewing

I have a tired old lunch bag that is in need of repair.   I’m trying to think of something clever and cute (and more durable) that will replace it, and all I’ve come up with so far is a denim version of the same thing, which wouldn’t be too bad, but it would require actual sewing.

It was a good weekend on one hand – I got two loads of laundry done, I stayed in “the Zone” all weekend without incident, and I got some rest (not a lot, but some).  I’m still tired, but I think I could possibly catch up this week….  Or not. 
On the other hand, I didn’t [...]
