Home Again

Home Again

This is a short post to let you know that I’m home from my sister’s where we were going through photos and paperwork. We siblings got together via Zoom to make final decisions, but at the end of our conversation, we shared how lucky we were to have the parents we had. They were loving, supportive, open, and were not afraid to tell us when they made mistakes. They challenged us in profound ways that helped us grow as individuals. We were each also grateful that our friends felt good about spending time at our house.

Not everyone is blessed with parents who are involved with and interested in what they are doing. Our parents came to our school activities, even though they had two jobs outside the home, and with the church. 

In my first novel, The Space Between Time, Jenna in the present loses her mother and after she’d gone finds out things about her that her mother never shared. In a way, that happened to me with my mother. My sister found a book of remembrances from my Mother’s co-workers on the event of her retirement. What they wrote were lovely things they appreciated about her personality and working with her, and though what they wrote didn’t exactly surprise us, it was nice to know that she was generally appreciated by non family members just as much as she was by us.

We’re still settling in back at home. I’ll post something longer next week. Have a lovely weekend and week to come.

Blessings,

Rita Gau’s review: Recently, I finished reading a book titled, The Space Between Time, by my friend, Lucinda Sage-Midgorden. It was the best book I’ve read in a long time. It kept me captivated, which I have not experienced from any other book for the past couple of years. I loved all the little gems of meaningful and what I call spiritual statements throughout the book. You know, those words that make you pause and think, and sometimes have an “aha” from or a deeper awareness about something. And it was entertaining and informational about some of the history in the 1800’s and yet, contemporary. It also reminded me of the importance of “living in community” and how important it is to help one another and be engaged in your community. Thank you Lucinda for a wonderful, entertaining and captivating book!
