I am musing about


How my phone went berserk today and I almost did too:)


My phone went berserk! Literally.

It did not help that this was one of several frustrating technological debacles from the last couple weeks. It seemed it was one thing after another. It was almost funny the other night, for example, when I went to open up my laptop to get on a Zoom meeting and the content on the windows screen was...upside down!! What? Why of course:)) (a reboot helped that situation). Anyway back to my phone.

It was buzzing at me, would not respond to touch, was robotic-ally talking (incessantly) and flashing green squares around the various icons. It almost drove me crazy. Both by what it was doing as well as what it was not doing.

I could hardly deal with it's lack of functionality, but it's behavior on top of that....let's just say, it was annoying..berserkingly so!

So, of course.... I took it to the Phone Dr. (at the Verizon Store).

The first gal, was not quite sure what to do. Then her coworker took it in her hand. "I know what is going on" she said. With a click, a swipe, another click or two and maybe another swipe...she handed it back to me. Ready to go. Fixed. Back into a functional state.

I looked at her and with great appreciation said "Thank you. Bless your heart!"

I walked out to the car with a happy bounce to my step.

As I drove away I thought about what just happened.

Is your life driving you crazy? Do you feel like you are maybe a little berserk?

Take it to the Life Dr.. Our God knows what is going on. He will touch you as you trust Him and place your life in His hands. He can fix it. And bring you back your joy!

What I Saw Today

 I am musing...                                                                                                            ~11/2020 about what I saw today I stepped into the med room this morning. It is a little room off of the west side nurse's station.  It was quiet back there. And what I saw made my heart sing with a sense of grateful comfort. There on the counter, someone had left an open Bible. It was sitting there, a testimony that someone had likely taken a moment to grab a deep breath  and glean some divine words of encouragement. It was still open, inviting others to also partake from the comfort of it's living pages. Like for so many, this has been a really tough season for all of us. Nurses, aides, administration, housekeeping, dietary, activities....we all have found ourselves caught up in a reality we did not realize we had signed up for. The extra logistics, anxieties, regulations. uncertainties, fogged up glasses, claustrophobic masks, staffing challenges, reside

The Gift of Art and Creative Contributions

I am marveling at                                                                                                           the Gift of Art and Creative Contributions! Wow. What a lovely day. My legs are tired, but my heart if full. Hubby and I biked another portion of the Hennepin Trail today. Beautiful and historic! So of course, our love affair with God's beautiful creation was stoked. But surprisingly, so was my appreciation for Art. We enjoyed biking past one lock after another, those old engineering marvels from the early days of the 20th century. The trail we biked along was a link to days gone by. For it was the same old pathway utilized by mules as they hauled the barges laden with grain and supplies along the canal joining the Mississippi and Illinois rivers. How I appreciated the old steel rusty structures, the bridges and the locks, with their levers, gears, arches and spokes. They spoke to me of the past. As did the old path itself.   There were relatively few people o

God Stories. What's yours?

    I am marveling at God stories. What's yours?? Our daughter has a good friend. Her name is Stephanie. She is creative, talented, bubbly, sensitive and loves Jesus! And she wrote a book. For kids. About God. Called Always Remember . It is different then most kid's books. It has a poetic lilt which is beautiful, but atypical in its cadence. It's wording is unique; yet lovely. It is simple and it is deep.  It's premise is pivotal, declaring Truth! It is almost layered in that each reading of this basically simple book helps peel back another level of understanding and appreciation. It is a book that is actually instructional. It should be read often as a way to reflect and then to live. The main theme is teaching kids (and adults alike) to... Stop. Ponder. Remember God. To see Him every day in everything. To align daily with who He is. It is beautifully illustrated, with large colorful pictures that engage, teach, enlighten and intrigue. She shared how the book was firs
