Enjoy The Moment! | Grandma's Ramblings

Growing up I often heard my mother say that as you age time flies faster.  I always thought that was silly.  Time is time.  It does not move slower or faster.  A minute is 60 seconds, an hour is 60 minutes.  Same for everyone. Now that my mother is gone and I am the old […]

Eileen Collins | Grandma's Ramblings

Dr. Randy Lovelace did the physical testing for NASA to help with the selection of the Mercury astronauts. His vision went much beyond just getting a man into orbit around the earth. He thought someday we would have space stations orbiting the earth where science research could be done. If that should happen, women would […]

Why Sunday Morning Worship Speaks to Me | Grandma's Ramblings

In Christian circles we use the word “worship” to often refer to the twenty or so minutes we spend on Sunday morning singing songs. Depending on the church you attend the music may be very formal with hymn books, organ and perhaps a choir.  It may consist of words projected overhead on a screen with […]

Gunsmoke, Joe Namath and Medicare Supplements | Grandma's Ramblings

I wrote a few years ago about a favorite show from my childhood – Gunsmoke. You can check out that post here: Anyone Remember Gunsmoke? My husband and I found a TV channel that has Gunsmoke reruns every day at noon. Several days a week we watch the show while eating lunch. By now most […]

Get Out of Dodge | Grandma's Ramblings

With recent health issues, I have been spending way too much time at home.  Experiencing a lot of severe pain, I am faced with two choices. Take pain medications and then feel too sleepy or zombie-like to do anything. Don’t take pain medications and hurt too bad to do anything. I have missed church, given […]

For All the Beauty All Around Me | Grandma's Ramblings

Today is the third week I have not been able to make it to church.  Two weeks ago I was in too much pain to go.  Last week we were all snowed in and church was cancelled. Today I am suffering again from pain. Feeling a little down – I miss my church family, I […]

Thank God for the Birds | Grandma's Ramblings

Outside our patio window we have bird feeders. I love to watch all the beautiful birds and think of what a creator our God is. He could have made one kind of bird. Checking National Geographic and various other sites, I found that it is estimated there are between 10,000 to 18,000 different species of […]

I Got My German Food Fix! | Grandma's Ramblings

After moving to Michigan in October we have tried to do some sightseeing.  However, cold weather is limiting that right now.  Last weekend we had a beautiful sunshiny day so we took off on another adventure.  We had no definite destination – just heading east and seeing what the day brought. Our first stop was […]

Can We Make It to 1000? | Grandma's Ramblings

Those of you who have followed my blog for awhile know that my husband and I are avid Scrabble players. We are very competitive and have kept a record of our scores since 2008. I tell my story in: Confessions of a Scrabble Addict! We have been known to wake up at 4 am and, not […]

Not Following the Guidelines | Grandma's Ramblings

I love to write.  For years I have kept a journal.  My entries range from routine, boring comments about the weather to reflections of my feelings during a battle with cancer. A few years ago I entered the world of blogging.  Really having no idea how to have a successful blog, I have read other […]

Where is the Evidence? | Grandma's Ramblings

This past Sunday I missed the service at my own church filling in at another local church for the organist that was out of town.  The pastor’s sermon really spoke to me and reminded me of a song I heard years ago. Since that time I have seen one line from that song on church’s […]
