every little thing
Back in May 2021 I wrote a blog post titled “An Unusual Mother’s Day Weekend“, well, now it’s a fitting title for this season as well! However, thankfully, this time we don’t have any tragedies. For me, what makes it unusual is basically, we don’t have a house! This unique...
Dale and I are back in Texas! We had a good drive home from North Carolina. The halfway mark was Meridian, Mississippi, where we stopped and had dinner with my oldest brother and his wife. He has worked at the Naval Air Station there for many years. The next morning...
Dale’s sister, and our son and his wife, arrived on Wednesday to visit with us and see the sights. I had been given a list of everything they wanted to visit, so I developed a grueling, four-day itinerary. I didn’t realize how jampacked it was until we did it! But,...
Earlier this week some friends who are living in Georgia came up for a quick 24-hour visit. We have known Judith for quite a while. She is one of the Harris Family kids, of the Round Rock Harrises. Ha Ha! She and Josh, and the baby, are missionaries! How cool...
We had one week where Dale, J and I would be together before leaving on our trip. I hoped, and prayed, that God would provide two things: a dress and a venue. He gave us both. All glory to Him for these gifts. If it had not happened, we would...

While the music is playing, participants go around and around and around, preparing to take a seat as soon as the music stops. This “musical chairs” analogy comes to mind as I consider that every one in my immediate family is in the process of moving, or preparing to move....
It was a beautiful weekend and so enjoyable. It’s good to spend time with friends and family, even though we missed having the Rusks with us. The weekend started off with a community-wide Good Friday service at Old Settlers Park. It was a beautiful evening a good turnout. J had...
So it really did only take one weekend to sell our home. We listed our house on a Thursday, signed a contract on the following Monday. The inspector came on Tuesday, and today, one week later, the appraiser is coming. I can’t imagine our house will appraise for the actual...
It’s been just over two months since D and A’s wedding. I can’t imagine a more beautiful day or location for such a special event. It was cool and sunny. A’s planning made everything go so smoothly. We were surrounded by family and friends. It was really perfect. The morning...
