Here it is after 10:30 p.m. Saturday night and I’m just now getting this posted. That probably tells you what this week has been like. David had a health scare Sunday night and then my daughter ended up in the E.R. with a gallbladder attack early Monday morning. Her husband had a doctor’s appointment and…
Simplicity, Work, and Enjoyment
Sometimes the “world is too much with us” and I long for simpler times. And yet I also love modern technology. How does one embrace a simple life in these modern times? How do we achieve balance? I have been blessed with several women in my family to whom I look for guidance in various…
Timely Tunes ~ 11/5/15
