Someone today told me I looked familiar.  I was somewhere where I was Aug ‘21 in the same pants, same shirt, same hat, same hairstyle with the same friend with a group of very same people at a same event. The woman was a mother of a daughter winning her victory from breast cancer.  Jeremiah 29:11 was written on another’s daughter’s hands in stage IV.  I have been asking, “What is hope?” And I heard the answer finally come in tonight’s Rosary episode…

(10/30/22 “Hope is the certainty of God’s promises.” The priest gave an example of the law of physics, and he dropped a pen.  Did the pen drop? The pen dropped.  If the pen didn’t drop we’d be in trouble.  I asked myself what would the trouble be? Doubt.  Why are we certain of God’s promises he asks, because the guarantor is more than gravity or the law of physics, the guarantor is God. I liked the Rosary’s title…Prayer is an Adventure with Jesus.”

What I liked about the Rosary last night was its timing.  The event was a fundraiser, and your contribution was a ticket to skydive.  And everyone who went up came down.  

God came down, too, to give us a living hope. 

And Jesus went up.

Who then came down? The Holy Spirt 

Hebrews 10:39-11:1 And may we all support each other in love 1 Corinthians 13: 4… for 1 Corinthians 13:13

Walk. Wag. Repeat.

Fit check!  My Nitto Nomad Grapplers arrived!  I waited years for these tires to arrive on the market to fit my vision and another year to fit the budget.  I am still creating my very own bumper sticker 🎣 and my vision will be complete.  My bumper sticker inspiration courtesy of “Beau”: I never stuck it on my dogwalking vehicles, though.   Thank you, Guardian Angel, for turning the wheel just right. I wanted to keep Beau’s gift of encouragement to me in a bumper sticker in keepsake condition.  Once upon a time…  But I would walk “500” miles  And I would walk “500” more  Just to be the girl who walked “1000” miles To up- lift her car. Thanks Chris for making my Barbie Jeep dreams come true.  #yourdreamsdontworkunlessyoudo they say. (One day I calculated I dog walked 52 miles/week.  Beau The Dogo Argentina’s mom raised my attention to the reality I had been walking on her watch rain or shine and on rare occasion snow for 2+ years. ...

Completion.

Thank you Matt for taking my picture.  There’s looking at you! I thought some things driving to the grocery store behind a truck and trailer.  First, Yes; that must be some good help in that cab.  Second, that's some well used scaffolding #mindofateacher Third, gratitude for the life of Jesus Christ and Him wanting to share it with me in Him  https ://youtube.com/clip/UgkxzXJyENvvL2pYAws7N3iWv_0Ebl5MCi--?si=mQefTiag4raNoHqP Third, Fourth,  (7/28/24 Thank you Lord God for Your gifts of prayer and promise and wonder of the extraordinary in the ordinary. 🐕‍🦺I am ending my final entry with the beginning of a 54 day Novena for two people I’ve never met, but by powerful mystery beyond my understanding, I feel strangely connected by prayer to pray for. For Elliot and Grace and in Thanksgiving for all holy friendship.  My favorite meditation so far…  I’ll begin the first nine days with a Friendship Novena, too, and try those 54 rosaries for the first time on...

Hashtags

Hashtags are fun. My mom, two sisters, and I can have a conversation, almost, in hashtags. We even punctuate our hashtags with an "exclamation point" emphasized by the thump of our four fingers enumerating the syllables in /hashtag/.  We know it's going to be a good one because the punctuation comes before the actual clips of "phrases".  There's something in a good hashtag, I feel.  Talking in hashtags is saying everything you need to say about something in witty code.   Wit is something special.  In my opinion, wit is mastered by going through an experience and coming out on the good side of it.  Wit is like a language, but there has to be a spark between the sender and receiver so it doesn't get lost in the encoding and decoding process of communication.   So wit is kind of like a love language.  It's the humor in the language between two kindred hearts.  Because, yes, I do believe, laughter is the best medicine.  BEGIN SIDENOTE: When ...
