  • Have Mercy!

    Have Mercy! In my mind today, I’m trying to center myself and plot out how I want to serve others in the new year. Believe it or not, I’m still here with ALS/PMA dipe and all. I’ve found the cure to melancholy and depression. I’ve shared it before and I’ll continue until the “back row”…

  • ‘Till Death Do Us Part

    ‘Till Death Do Us Part In my mind today, I’m thinking about true partnerships and commitments. Yesterday was a dear friend’s birthday. We’ve know each other for years, but as of late we’ve become “soul sisters.” Our lives have eerily paralleled. We married young to older men who had children. We love being a mother.…

  • Snow Days

    Snow Days In my mind, I’m thinking about snow days. In my healthy, ambulatory life as a teacher, I lived for snow days! Last night as our little burg buzzed about the cancellation of school, a part of Sal the Snow Day Gal was giddy. When the alert dinged my phone informing us about the…

  • For Heaven’s Sake

    For Heaven’s Sake In my mind today, I’m thinking of Heaven. You know the polar opposite is Hell. Quit snorting and giggling back row. Yes, I said Hell. When I found out my timeline was going to be drastically shorter than what I expected, I started reading and researching Death and Heaven. I read several…

  • Adversity

    Adversity In my mind today I’m thinking of adversity. If you’re human, you will have times of adversity. Let’s define adversity: difficulties, misfortune, sorrow, suffering, hardship, woe, and pain. Wow! So many synonyms for one word. I could go on and on. Adversity has no discretion. It can ruin the best of days. It will…

  • Happy New Year!

    Happy New Year! In my mind today I’m thinking of all of the blessings of 2017 and how things have changed from my childhood. Remember as a child how the 2000’s seemed otherworldly? They seemed so distant as we envisioned a world like The Jetsons. We’ve yet to have flying cars, but we have rumbas,…

  • Death

    Death In my mind today, I’m thinking of death. On the Catholic calendar, the day after Christmas is a day of remembrance for the first Christian martyr, Saint Stephen. As I read I was thinking, why would this be placed in such a celebratory time of year? Death. It does come for each of us.…

  • Faith, Hope, Love, & Radicava

    Faith, Hope, Love, & Radicava   In my mind today, I’m thinking of rejoicing. This is the third week of advent. We are called to rejoice remembering our savior entered the world. Behold! Emmanuel is here within each of us. He is. Ironically, I’m also rejoicing because with faith, hope, and love God has granted…

  • Creating Your Bedford Falls

    Creating Your Bedford Falls In my mind today, I’m thinking of my favorite Christmas movie, It’s a Wonderful Life. This is saying something because boy, I have so many favorite Christmas movies from classics to modern. The movie was originally a flop but over time it became a blockbuster. There are so many lessons in…

  • Tis the Season

    ”Tis the Season In my mind today, I’m reflecting on the blessings in my life. When your blessings are so, so numerous that you have a hard time listing them then you are living right. When you are able to see them instead of your woes, you are truly fortunate. Your assignment students is to…
