Today’s Feel Good Moment was similar to yesterday’s, but instead of driving my car, I was piloting a grocery cart. When I was done with my shopping and ready to check-out, I came barreling down the cereal aisle, and there directly in front of me was a check-out with no one in line. I thought […]

Have you ever driven into a ramp garage and found that the very first spot past the ticket machine was available to park in? I hadn’t either – at least not until today. I was downtown, parking in the South Ave. garage, and there it was – the prime parking spot just waiting for me. […]

I seem to be on a roll, so I’m going to see if I can find a feel good moment every day this week. Today I was having lunch at La Bella Vita restaurant on Empire Blvd. with some friends when I ran into two old friends that I hadn’t seen in a long time. […]

I had another feel good moment this morning totally unrelated to my grandson. I’m talking about the feeling you get when you walk out the door of the gym, especially if it’s early in the morning. A total 360 degree turn around from the way you feel when you enter the gym. Now admit it. […]

Given the spring storm and the heavy, wet snow, you might be having a hard time coming up with a feel good moment today. That wasn’t a problem for me because Monday is my day with Evan. My favorite part of watching Evan is giving him his bottle. I always hold him on my lap […]

I got a workout today taking Evan for a walk in the stroller. Besides the steps, pushing that stroller up some of the hills in Gananda has to build up muscles. I found myself being really grateful for the new sloped curbs. When I walk alone, I usually I find my walks relaxing. I think […]

Last year we had a nest of robins under our second-level deck. In fact, there were two sets of babies that hatched there, and every day I checked on them, watching them grow and finally leaving the nest. Gary thinks that birds’ nests belong in trees and not on houses, so this year he decided […]

Have you ever been in the right place at the right time? I felt that way yesterday. After attending that memorial service, I needed to take a walk. The day was sunny and cool – perfect for walking – so I treated myself to a stroll down nearby Oxford St. The magnolia blossoms were just past their […]

Today my steps took me to a memorial service at Third Presbyterian Church (I don’t know what they did with the first and second churchs) on East Ave. This, along with St. Paul Episcopal, Incarnate Word Lutheran, and Asbury First Methodist, is one of those mainline Protestant cathedralish looking churchs that you would expect to find […]
