I'll be at the hospital. Religious holidays tend to be extraordinarily special when caring for patients that are hoping for miracles to help them live a little longer. I feel blessed to be a part of their day helping them and their families feel better and more hopeful. The spiritual aspect of healing is central in many patient's recovery.

I work the EMS side of it and I've come to realize that some of the nursing homes call the days before holiday weekends "dump day" because they are understaffed and they can dump pts into the ER. So good luck this weekend.

Brunch at Topaz Lake Lodge overlooking the Sierra Nevada, admiring the 100 ten pound trout on the wall and communing in my outdoor church.

We're going to my sister's this year after church for lunch. I always do Christmas eve, a couple of February, March and April family birthdays, and she does Thanksgiving and Easter. Up until this year I've always had a huge Easter egg hunt for the kids. I think they were looking forward to it again this year, but time got away from me, and the kids are getting a little old.

I usually don't trek very far,
when all around black bear are.

Hi...

Will be spending the day with Daughter, SIL, and grown Grandsprouts.

Only seven miles away, but in the local heart of black bear country.

Will try to post a pic of a black bear leaving a nose print on their patio doors...!!

My plans changed. Daughters upstairs bathtub faucet broke, SIL used too big a wrench, no shut off valves, so they had to turn the well pump off, resulting in no water in the house. Grandpa to the rescue. Easier to install shutoff in the lines to the shower/tub so they have water in the rest of the house. I'll go back Monday to help him replace the faucet.

I'm planning to take my kids to their Grandma's and to their Uncle's for lunch/dinner and egg hunts. Of course I also have baskets prepared for them to find in the morning. I think they will have tons of fun. They're a bit too young for dying eggs though, so that may have to wait until next year.

We are doing an Easter egg hunt with the grandkids. Brunch after the Easter egg hunt with the family. It should be nice tomorrow to spend some time outside.

Hi..

Okay...the black bear post...(Black Bear leaving noseprint on daughter's patio door)...can now be seen on post #15...!!

The irony of this scenario is that what the bear is looking at is a BLACK BEAR RUG on the interior floor...!!

ENJOY...!!

You made me homesick!

My sister and I traded holidays and all family events for decades until I moved after she said she could stay near our parents who are in their 80s. In hindsight my career happiness cost me so very much for those few hours that happened almost monthly and watching my neice and nephew in all of their after school activities. "Sniff, sniff"
