    It was nice to wake up this morning to gray skies blanketed over a strong flurry of falling snows outside. It was another true winter day, which I find a really enjoy as an alternative to our prevalent good weather in Albuquerque. Before I awoke to see the snowy skies, though, I was sitting...

    Ever since I got up this morning, I have been cold in the house today. I went out at lunch and took a walk, and I was warmer under a winter sun. But by afternoon, gray clouds started collecting over the city. The Weather app on my phone said it has a good chance...

    Snow

    The last two days, there was some buildup online and on local TV about a big storm that was coming though today. I got up as usual and worked from home in an overcast day. Around ten, a light flurry arrived and tiny snow swirled out my back door. At 1:40, when I needed...

    This afternoon, my brother texted my immediate family with some good news, and my mom replied to him that it called for a fat celebration for he and his wife. She gave him an encouraging word, and then in an immediate followup text to just me and my dad, she said “I’ll fix supper...

    The year 2022 here in Albuquerque started off with rain and overcast skies today, which later turned briefly into snow showers in the afternoon. But despite the thermometer registering temps in the twenties as the evening wrapped up, it was a very warm day today for myself and my family, because it was my...

    Last Harvest 2017

    by  • November 29, 2017 • LifeStuff • 0 Comments

    I did a last harvest of the chile plants tonight. It seemed like the right time. I imagine the plants could have kept going and growing their green little fruits for a little while yet, but a few of them have looked stressed the last few days, and the plant closest to the back...

    A Cool Night

    Since I am a board game junkie, I have from time to time tried to enlist each of my family members and friends to try a game with me at some point. For my parents, the enlistment time was probably about four months ago, and the game was Ticket to Ride. Ticket to Ride,...

    How to Read a Book

    by  • February 9, 2017 • FlashBacks • 0 Comments

    Strangely enough, I have to say that when I attended seminary, my favorite class may have had nothing to do with doing the Lord’s work. It’s not that I did not like my other classes at Golden Gate (now Gateway) Seminary. The truth is, I loved my three years at that little school, living...

    The White Winter Sky

    by  • December 12, 2015 • LifeStuff • 0 Comments

    Whenever winter occasionally visits Albuquerque and dulls and bleaches the sky, I am regularly transported back to a few specific memories from my Chicago days. You know- those stills that get burned into our heads of particular moments, particular images. When I lived in the city, after my brief attempt at marriage failed, I...
