Have you ever invited someone to your house for a meal, to a party, or to do something special with you, and they said no? Or maybe they said yes, but then didn’t show up? How did you feel? I know I accidentally did not show up once, years ago, and our poor friend must… Read More Day 153- Thankful that God invites us all
Friday I found out that I have swimmers ear; who knew? The doctor was a little puzzled (yes, I was actually seen in clinic!) because this is not the usual season for swimmers ear, and also, there was no apparent oozing that should accompany the condition. But, if you’ve been following me for a while,… Read More Day 150- Thankful for medical workers, humorous moments 🙂 , and order
Do you ever get discouraged because it seems like you are not important? Truth be told, most people probably feel that way at some time in their life.

The eye doctor there talked me into getting progressive lenses instead of the trifocals that I requested. He said… Read More Distorted Vision – Clear Vision
This morning I played a piano solo at church. With God’s help it turned out pretty well, although I made a few mistakes. But I kept on going. I couldn’t just stop playing because I made a mistake. I mean how crumby would that be, to get everyone’s hopes up to hear some music by… Read More Don’t Give Up
