I am doing well (some days), but on the days I am not, I spend them thanking God for my life and the life I still enjoy, and I thank Him for my children.

This part of the journey has not been without its lessons, as we know God wraps every situation in a blessing box and offers it to us even amid our grief. 

My eldest daughter went to pick up her little … [Read more...] about I Am Doing Well

I recently needed to change my healthcare provider from a PPO to an HMO. I had been used to seeing a naturopath for in-depth blood work. So much information can be learned from blood work.

My recent trip to a "regular" MD made me feel I knew more than she did regarding nutrition and how food affects the body. The one issue I can't seem to hack is better sleep. I … [Read more...] about Are You an Empowered Patient?

Recently, I've seen  articles about "touch deprivation." With young people constantly all over each other with displays of public affection, I thought we had become a "touchy-feely" culture, but maybe I'm wrong.   Perhaps young people hug and touch each other without thinking about it, but the "old folks"? Not so much.

I was aware of the "touch deprivation thing" … [Read more...] about Touch Deprivation

First, you won’t believe how brief I’m going to be this month. Here goes...

These days, we’re inundated with reminders of what’s wrong with the world rather than being reminded of what’s right with the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit. We need to remind ourselves that God is evermore with those who are His sons and daughters called by His Name and that we are to … [Read more...] about We Need A Miracle

For those in the USA, I hope you enjoyed your Thanksgiving. For the most part, the traditional Thanksgiving meal is full of refined carbohydrates. Just about everything we consume in our holiday meals has added sugar. My Thanksgiving meal was no exception. I roasted the obligatory turkey with all the sides you'd expect from the stuffing, cranberry sauce, my mother's famous … [Read more...] about Blood Sugar Regulation Emergency!  

Some people sense impending snow, rain, or a storm brewing. Add visual evidence or a change in temperature or wind velocity, and it’s a safe bet that some measure of precaution and heed should be taken. My hope here is to provide factual information to and for those with ears to hear for the time we’re in. Some of what you learn may be like nothing you’ve heard before and … [Read more...] about What’s Really In Your Heart?

A few years back, while doing laundry in one of our building's communal laundry rooms, I was unprepared for one of our washers getting stuck in the spin cycle. There are only six washers and six dryers in a 90-unit Senior setting with three floors—two per floor. Our first floor is the only one with a front and top loader. I will not get into the prices … [Read more...] about Regaining Our Balance

Let's begin with this. I was one of those children who clicked on a flashlight and read under the covers long after my mother called for "lights out." There was too much going on in my childhood books for me to give them over to something as needless as sleep.

 My mother was confident that I would burn my eyes out if I continued that voracious reading, but I … [Read more...] about Midnight Meanderings With My Friends

Many people, including some of the early supporters of the COVID "vaccine," are beginning to realize they were lied to by the government. Worse, some early supporters lost long-term relationships with friends who cautioned against getting a shot. Remember "the good old days" when you were scorned as a  "vaccine denier" or "spreader of the virus if you didn't get vaccinated" … [Read more...] about Are You Vaccine Hesitant?
