Dixie Slater is remembered today; she was my biological father’s wife. Had she lived, she would have been 82. Yes, just 12 years older than I am. Something I didn’t realize at the time. She was old in her soul. She was raised on Rosebud.

St. John Eudes reveals that we need not travel outside our own borders to be missionaries if we follow God.

Today we remember Mary Cummings (1914-1994) daughter of Thomas R Cummings and Hanah Agatha Behan. Who married John Bernard in 1966. May she rest in peace.

Yesterday wound up being longer than planned. Got home around 2300 after running someone to Portage to catch a ride with someone headed in her direction since her original person didn’t show up. Today I deliver someone to the hospital in La Crosse for surgery and pick them up when they are ready to come home. In between I have reflexology and chiro appointments. I’m looking forward to the weekend where there are at present no plans to do anything but be home. Hmmm is that even possible?

Hibiscus finally blooming.

I’m tired. Nights are too short, days are too long. Too many deer have run into my path, too many vehicle repair issues happening. To do list is too long and this old body in no shape to pare it down.

Nuff of the whine. Time to get off the butt cushion and get shopping done.

Meditations for Each Day pg.323: Work & Worry

If I didn’t have bad luck, I’d have no luck at all comes to mind this morning. The SUV went to the shop, I got a loaner. The tires that were put on in May were replaced, due to a bulge, that was creating driving issues. Then low and behold another coil was found broken. The Walker coil company still refuses to respond to my emails so I made a separate post regarding them and tagged it. Meanwhile, I hit a deer with the loaner. I swear I’ve had enough of this. I find out the damages today.

Early off for me today.

Know you are prayed for.
