I know I have been talking about the doctors’ visits and such a lot lately. Hopefully, that is where our daily lives have taken us the most in the last couple of months. It seems like every single time one sees a doctor, they have another test or specialist that they need to see. I…
At Home
I Saw That Movie
There is just something about that line for me that reminds me that Moses was raised by the very people God would send him to rally against. The same people who would suffer the seven plagues. That is something that I think Hollywood got right for us. No, that doesn’t happen in the bible. In…
My Little Garden — Okay Flower Pots!
I have been trying for a few years to get a garden to grow. I haven’t had much luck, but this year I decided to do something a little different. I don’t have a garden in the traditional sense, but I do have a little garden here and there in my yard. I thought I…
A New Planner or Two
Recently, I bought a new planner, thinking it would be a good thing. I had some custom stickers made and began using them. What I quickly discovered was that it was okay but not what I needed. It was too big and bulky to carry in my purse, and I really needed to carry one…
Good Friday
I originally posted this back in 2017, but I thought it would be a great refresher on how and why we celebrate Good Friday. Today is Good Friday, which for me means a meatless night. Normally we have fish every Friday, but since tonight is a special one, we are having a big fish fry….
Why Catholics Have Confession

Confession (you may hear it called the Sacrament of Reconciliation or something similar) is when you go inside the confessional (that…
Struggling with Body Image
I passed by the mirror in my bedroom recently and saw myself. I have put back on a few pounds and am struggling a bit with the diet the doctor has me on. It is something we are working on together. Anyway, I looked in the mirror and all I thought was, “What a fat…
My Favorite Workout Shoe
Not so long ago, I had to get new workout shoes. I walked so much that I had holes in the bottom of my old ones. I had never had to say that before and was so proud of myself. I loved the shoes I had because they were comfortable. I tried to get something…
About Dying
When they told me I had chf (congestive heart failure), my doctor said that the best outcome we could hope for was five years. At the moment, they simply couldn’t give me more than that. The hope was for longer, and there are plenty of people who live longer than that, but he didn’t want…
An Updated About Me.. Sort Of
Last week, I realized I needed to update my bio not only on the blog, but also across all of my social media platforms.That got me to thinking about how odd this whole world of blogging and social media can be. I mean, we all spend so much time scrolling through someone’s feed or reading…
