Devotion

After I retired and now that was 13 years ago come May, I read a devotion each day.  My friend Jonell sent this one to me last year.  I don’t really like the author but the devotional was good.  Each day it held a reminder to be thankful.  Laura read the one below in 2024.  Perhaps it was also a gift from a friend.  We swapped and now I’m reading hers and she can be reminded each day to be thankful.  I going to have my eye out for one for 2026.  I like to be prepared and I plan to be here.

Cold Coming

By Monday, it is to be much colder.  It was really windy here New Year’s Eve as the front passed.  I’ll be glad when the cold passes too.  
For Christmas Astrid made me a little solar light from one of the old fixtures in the Galla house.  She changed the lights but saved the light covers.  We moved to that house in 1989.  The little light carries memories.

In Her Genes

Sigrid is on a break from College.  She’s trying crocheting. Her first attempt at a bigger project is moving along.  She sorted through left over yarn for colors.  She designed her project on her iPad. Now, she off and hooking.  She has several blocks finished.

I’m thrilled she’s trying this pastime.  I find it a pleasant distraction from whatever is going on in my life.  A creative hobby is a good thing to master.
