The Business

The Business How we came about- Spring 2020. COVID-19 hit and after a few weeks of “the world is ending!!!” Decided it was time to take action. Opportunity lives in down times. Going on my own had been a plan for a while but pulling the trigger is always the hardest; especially when you are […]

The Storm

The Storm Have you ever stood outside during a tornado? NOTHING LIKE IT- I LIVE for these moments.Growing up in the Midwest we appreciate and fear tornadoes. While they aren’t often; they can be very destructive. I recall many a childhood nights spent in my parents’ musky basement after a storm warning. That huddling together […]

Travel Light

Travel Light STUFF. We ALL have way too much of it. Our houses are packed full of it. At the end, we can’t take it with us. WHY do we all hang on to these tangible memories? WHAT is holding us back from the FAITH of what is next? Let’s face it. As many “options” as you […]

Baptism by FIRE

Baptism by FIRE Nearly every Sunday at 11am Mass (we call this the Childrens’ Mass here at All Saints Parish because the constant chatter of youngsters permeates the room) an infant is baptized into the Catholic Faith.

Commencement

Commencement Many have confused the definition of this word. So many of us obscure it with the end of something. When we graduated high school we saw it as the end of days with many friends and close teachers. The time for a young adult to spread their wings and take on the world but […]

Survivors

Survivors Life has a way of keeping you (and the universe) in balance. Lately life has forced me to slow down and smell the roses. Those who know me – should know this is a struggle. I have a natural anxiety that drives me to feel the need to be constantly busy, please everyone, succeed, […]

True Grit

True Grit I collect John Wayne memorabilia. My fascination with the DUKE started from a young age and when I first watched the movie “McKlintock!” it was even more solidified. That is a good one. I knew he was my role model for life. What does the word GRIT mean anyways? Thoughts I have while I vacuum the […]
