Five Days of Snow

December 17, 2022 Susan

As of this morning, Saturday, December 17th, we have had snow every day for five days. The bulk of it arrived on Wednesday and Thursday giving the Fargo/Moorhead area two snow days! Well, honestly, nearly the whole state had snow days. This isn't taken lightly around here. But also, I will add, one downside to… Continue reading Five Days of Snow

Day One of a Move

May 21, 2022 Susan

We’ve come to the end of a long challenging day! We left on our trip to move my mom back to MN today. When we drove out of the driveway at 815 am I thought we’d be at our first night’s rest before dinner. Drive time should have been eight and a half hours plus… Continue reading Day One of a Move

A Thank You Year

February 24, 2021 Susan

Have you ever read Reader’s Digest? I grew up reading it and would mostly read the very short and funny real-life stories in the monthly columns titled All in a Day’s Work, Life in These United States, Laugh Lines, Laughter, the Best Medicine, and Humor in Uniform. As a kid I love it. I haven’t… Continue reading A Thank You Year

Tiny Perfect Things

February 20, 2021 Susan

James and I watched a movie recently titled “The Map of Tiny Perfect Things”. It is a incredibly cute “Ground Hog Day”-esque movie with a couple of teenagers stuck in the time loop. It is, overall, a family friendly movie that can be enjoyed by just about everyone. The reason why I am posting about… Continue reading Tiny Perfect Things

How are you feeling, my fine friends, about 2020 coming to a close? Are you excited to see it go and to start a new year full of hope and light, to welcome new beginnings? Or are you sad to see it go, feeling you didn’t quite make of it what you had hoped? I… Continue reading 2020 Comes to a Close

Akathist of Thanksgiving Day 5

November 29, 2019 Susan

Music, indeed, is one thing that almost always can draw me out and up, towards Him. Towards grace and peace and light. I love music. I love to sing. All kinds of music. Whether it be church music, classical, or even Disney music. Music makes joy! And also, music can be felt in beauty. In… Continue reading Akathist of Thanksgiving Day 5

Thanksgiving Day is Here

November 28, 2019November 27, 2019 Susan

O give thanks unto to the Lord, for He is good; His mercy endures forever! This phrase, found 6 times in scripture, fills me. We sing it nearly weekly in Matins. It makes me filled with joy and happiness in the Lord. It fills me with thankfulness. O give thanks unto the Lord, for He… Continue reading Thanksgiving Day is Here

Joy is Thankfulness

June 21, 2019June 21, 2019 Susan

One year ago today (and I didn't do that on purpose), I wrote a post about the book “Our Thoughts Determine Our Lives: The Life and Teachings of Elder Thaddeus of Vitovnica”. It is the sort of book that you will read on and off for the rest of your life because there is so… Continue reading Joy is Thankfulness
