Today is my mother's birthday. It started off like any other Sunday morning. We got up, got dressed, and headed to church with my parents. We carpool to save on parking space since it is limited. But one street over my mom gasps, "There's a man in the ditch," and my dad slams on the breaks. He… Continue reading Sunday Sundaes

Foggy morning as the earth began to warm from underneath the ice, remnant of yesterday's ice storm. Pieces of ice fell from tree limbs and telephone lines. Water dripped off of icicles as they melted. By noon the temperature had reached above freezing and was in the 40s. The sun was shining giving a false warmth… Continue reading Play Date Saturday

Snow that lingered from last Thursday melted a little more, but in some areas it is still lingering. I… Continue reading A dry and Sunny, but cold Monday

Squire Parsons came to our church today. He has been ill and is recovering from a heart attack that happened last October. It was good to see him again and to hear his inspiring music for the Lord. He even had two or three new songs which he'd written. His son Samuel came with him.… Continue reading Sunday Sundaes

Still no power today. Electric company has come out, but no results yet. Camping out at my parents and writing. At least I'm making progress on my manuscript if nothing else is getting done today.
