Will you be my valentine?

Sunday, February 14th, 2010

Mombo and I started the day together at Sacred Heart Church where Fr. Pat Dolan said one of his instructional Masses. Afterward James and Susan took Mombo home so that I could go to Danville and meet Jerry at the breakfast bar at Shoney’s. We caught up with conversation and then went to the Peddler’s […]

Christmas Post #11 2009

Monday, December 28th, 2009

I was up early to go to the eye doctor in Versailles. Then back to KR to clean up, get decorations for reception together, etc. Brendan and Kara took me into Richmond to meet Jerry for dinner at Outback, and we caught up on the past few months while BCA and KN returned the shoes […]

Fire and Ice

Wednesday, February 11th, 2009

The thing about being without electricity at Kelley Ridge was that I was thankful–thankful that I was trapped there and not somewhere else. Being there, I could burn wood and keep the house warm.

It’s MLK Day Eve

We have decided to read Scott Hahn’s THE LAMB’S SUPPER which is about the Mass and the Book of Revelation. Patti had a chicken cacciatore sort of dish over pasta, salad, bread, and […]

Wood

Saturday, January 19th, 2008

Heh, that’s me. What is it about dragging seasoned old logs with bugs under the bark into your house that is so satisfying? It’s gotten cold, and it is going to get colder, and I have three days to spend in my very own house (I’m not always here), and I’ve just got to burn […]

Gratitude

Monday, January 14th, 2008

I am so fortunate. On Friday I got to spend time with my mother. I got fed winter squash chili, broccoli salad, home-made whole wheat rolls, and banana pudding with my groupies at Beth and Jim’s house, and Mombo came along. My sweet friend Jerry joined us, and then we all went to Hayley’s game […]
