Please put a penny in the old mans hat. Tonight at HFG (Home Fellowship Group) we talked about Jesus the Servant. But I’ll get back to that in a minute. This sentence should hold my thought spot. November 29. Hatcher finally finished his last drive for his Segment 1 Drivers permit. He was signed up to start May 9th but …
6 months
November 13th 2022 Today is my longest friends birthday. She isn’t my tallest friend but the friend I have had for the longest time. :). Our moms were friends so we were destined to be together. I was born 6 days before her. We have done all of like together and I hope we continue to do so no matter …
Entering November
Nov 1st What a way to start November..it was beautiful weather. I cooked some of ourdinner outside and we plopped down on the deck with the leaves among us while we ate. It was too nice to go inside. I even left the doors open while I went from the kitchen to the grill. Is this a precursor to what …
Trick or Treat, Smell my Feet, Give Me Something Good to Eat.
Or don’t. I actually don’t like Halloween..or hardly any of the “holidays” 10-31-22 One thing I really love about Facebook right now is that everyday, almost, I have a “memory” regarding Mark. Its fun to swipe over or up or where ever… and see him smiling or jumping something or standing proudly next to one of his kids…or in a …
26.2 and Kissing in the Rain.
October 17th 2022 Someone said to me yesterday that they hate October. I replied that is the best fall month, hands down. It’s the only month that holds fall colors deep and true and it can still be warm, but also brisk and cool, like fall should be. It’s deep into fall sports season (which means, almost done. That’s good …
5 months.
October 12th 2022 I went to bed last night…after turning off my mid-century lamp. Right behind the lamp is a vintage style photo of our family a couple summers ago..in the park on Labor Day weekend. ( A tinplate) I looked at Mark in the photo and then looked at other photos and a paintings I have of him….and then …
Marathon Weekend!
I’m sitting in Cora’s dorm on Mark’s old ipad. The caps lock buttons are missing and the keyboard is entirely too small. I thought I wanted to just throw out a quick update but its proving to be difficult. I left home earlier than expected to catch one of Cora’s cross country meets. I got there early and had lots …
Twenty Miles
September 21, 2022 Its been a long stinking journey…that is far from over. You know that term people use. “It’s not a sprint, its a marathon”? Now if you actually have run a marathon, it will resonate with you more, I think. Like, your body is done and your mind is done but you aren’t done yet. You can see …
The TBC part….
September 12th 2022 I’m not going to jump right in quite yet because I want to just say….I have really great people in my life. I am very very well aware of that and just when you start to feel a little lost and maybe slightly forgotten…they swoop in and love on you and it feels good. Dinner with friends, …
Stick Season
September 8th 2022 It’s the Vermont saying for the season between fall and winter. After the leaves have fallen but before it snows. The beauty of the fall is gone…the trees stand naked waiting for it’s next wardrobe to wear. Light snow coat and sometimes icicles to adorn its branches like fine jewelry…but until then. Cold and naked with no …
