Do This In Remembrance…..
This command in the bible is about taking communion and remembering what Jesus did for us. Luke 22:19 Are you still counting, the days, the months, the years since your loved one left? I am, and I always cannot believe how time really does fly, whether you are having fun or not. Keeping track of…

Slow Down Construction Ahead
Monday was Memorial Day. We used to call it decoration day and the whole family went to the cemetery to put flowers on the loved ones graves. Now its looked at as a three day weekend and with cremations the thing its not a special day anymore. I came across the journal that I was…

Please Don’t Call Me Honey
I am settling in to settling in. I am finally figuring out who I am as an individual. I like having my own space, yet last week, I cried sorrowfully just wanting him back. I am thankful to come home at the end of a busy day and am glad I had a busy day.…

HOME ALONE
I am finally back home and not without an additional asset. I have a brand new hip. Body parts, being scarce for people my age, make me feel so entitled. My surgeon said the cap is pink…ok, thats exciting, I said and like who will ever know. Oh well I cannot tell you how wonderful…

The DAY Super Woman Died
Our facade dictates our behavior and the way we perceive ourselves. Most of us live our lives in one of two modes…serve or be served, wait till later or do it now. In my era, women always worked, some in the home, some outside the home and the latter had two jobs because she still…

A New Year A New View
Three years ago, on January 3, My husband of 50 years had a stroke. 56 days later, he left me to be with Jesus. This is a tale of my journey, one I would never recommend to anyone. Nobody is prepared for the aftermath of hurt, no matter who you are. There is no way…
