August Ramblings

Sitting on the front porch with my coffee this morning, just enjoying the sunshine and silence. It’s 70° on the porch, luckily, the porch post is blocking the sun from my eyes. I love the silence, nature sounds, the hum of the ac unit, the backup beeps of the bus- Bubbys first day of first grade! He was enthusiastic last night and woke early. When it was time to go to school, he was a bit less enthusiastic! Bless. 
With several recent deaths around the community, please keep those families and friends in your prayers! 
Happy Birthday to my cousin, Debbie Smith. 
I love all y’all ❤️
Have a blessed day!

Ma

Today was the best day since 5/31/25. That Saturday morning, I was at work, my cell rang. I looked at it, it was Ma. She asked if I was home. I could tell by her response that I was at work that something was wrong. I asked her, she said suddenly she didn’t feel right. Her right arm and leg hurt and were “heavy” and she couldn’t pour herself a cup of coffee. I asked her if she was alone. She was. I told her to sit and I’d call her right back. I called my brother and he was working. I told him I’d call him right back. Get where he could talk to me. I called her, she said nothing had changed. I told her to hang up and call 911, which she did. I updated my brothers. The rest of the story is: she had a stroke, it was small, and only time would tell what her level of recovery would be. She was discharged 6/2 with home health.  Fast forward to today. Everything is pretty much back to normal. Dr Igbokwe was very, very pleased with her progress. He said he doesn’t need to see her again, ex...

I’m back

It’s June 26, 2025 It’s been a while since I posted. I had a difficult time posting after blogger changed a format. It’s a very, very muggy 87° on the porch this afternoon. We’ve had a little thundershower go through, making it super muggy now. I’m going to try to get back to posting here at least once a week. I have good intentions.  I hope if you’re reading this, you have a blessed day!

Cloudy, rainy and slightly cool! 🌧

It’s a cloudy 57° on my porch at 8:45 am. The air is crisp, you could “feel” the rain. I’ve been out here watching my hummingbirds about an hour. Now, the rain has started.  Rainy fall days bring back wonderful memories!  That was a quick rain shower!  I’ve worked overtime 3 weeks of this month.  Covid will end my career. I don’t believe I have the stamina to keep up this pace! Never, ever in my 43 year career has it been this difficult. Never - even in three different states! Please pray for an end to this dreadful thing!  Please remember to pray for those who are in need! Please pray for our community, county, state and country!  Next Sunday, October 3, will be Homecoming at Miller Hill. Service starts at 11. Brother Keith Lindsey will preach, following service, we will have dinner. Message me on Facebook if you need directions!  Have a wonderful weekend! Have a blessed day! I 🧡 all y’all!
