The A,B,C’s of Thankfulness
Like many people, but probably not enough, I go to church most Sundays. I say “most” because I am guilty of sleeping in occasionally, especially if the weather is bad, the roads are icy or I got a horrible night’s sleep. This past Sunday I was determined to be there even though the weather made…

I Love Hearing Stories
I had a great day earlier this week. It wasn’t without it’s ups-and-downs: I hit every red light on my way there; had trouble connecting with the party I was supposed to see; but once I got all that out of the way it was really a fun day. Earlier this week I was filming…

Getting Yourself Ready For Winter – Sunday Column
Yesterday we spent some time prepping the yard for winter. Priscilla emptied out her flower pots and washed them out before stowing them away and I dug up the remains of my garden and left the dirt to weather the winter. It was a beautiful day to work outside and we even had a chance…

Victory was mine! Until they went on Amazon. Hi guys! It’s me, Oscar the Beagle. Remember that new bowl they got me? Uncle Matt bought me this stupid thing because they all said I ate my food too fast. This thing made me eat slower because I had to keep walking around the stupid thing…

It’s a Pretty Nice Place
I realized the other day that I love my city. I love my town. I love this area. I was driving home from St. Luke’s Hospital. Everyone’s fine. I volunteer there once a week. I’m going through a lot of their old pictures from the past and I’m seeing some faces that I recognize and…
