Thankful Thursdays

Posted on August 29, 2019 by Connie Perez

For time to prepare. I think those of us living in hurricane-prone areas can be thankful for advances in predicting the course of these storms.  New technology in satellite imagery and computer modeling is making it possible for meteorologists to alert us with ample time, so we can secure our homes and go out and…

Posted on August 22, 2019 by Connie Perez

For that intoxicating scent. Please find me perfume that smells like café! We know smells can trigger all sorts of feelings and conjure up sharp recollection. The scent of Cuban coffee does that for me. Especially in the morning. My hubby is the cafecito maker at home. And a darn good one at that. When…

Posted on August 15, 2019 by Connie Perez

For shots of positivity. Have recent events made it difficult for you to be positive and stay hopeful about the future? That is a YES for me. Some days I feel like I need a positivity injection (make that an IV) to make it through the day. But my local drug store doesn’t sell any….

For that one room. For us, that one room is our kitchen. It is the hub of our family. It is not particularly the largest space for entertaining at home but, despite its modest size and closed-plan design, it is where most of our social interaction happens. It’s not my cooking, trust me. It is…

Posted on August 1, 2019 by Connie Perez

For words that matter. “Can I have a mommy hug?”  – Best words ever said to a mother. Especially by an adult child. Some words are just good for my soul. We utter so many words throughout the day. Shouldn’t some of them be good for someone’s soul? For words that matter, today and always,…

Thankful Thursdays

Posted on July 25, 2019 by Connie Perez

For a/c, desk fans, and cold water. Ironically, three things not very high on my priority list last month. But, ever since my biological clock chose the hottest month of the year to kick start my own climate change, those three things have been bumped up the list. And wow, ladies! None of your stories…

For life-changing flights. This week marks the 50th anniversary of Apollo 11’s mission and Neil Armstrong and Buzz Aldrin taking humanity’s first steps on the moon. Those astronauts…man, talk about courage. The entire Apollo program, forever remarkable. That summer of ’69 in Havana, I watched the moon landing thanks to a neighbor armed with a super…

For the Perez household engine. There are days when I keep crossing things off my to-do list like I’m on a mission or something. Those days are super amazing. It feels great to get things done. Of course, there are days when I just want to relax and, well, maybe do nothing. If you’re like…

For the red, white and blue. Today, in this country, we celebrate Independence Day. As I take a moment to reflect on the many freedoms we are fortunate enough to have, I give thanks for all of those who gave their lives so that you and I can enjoy this great land. Although it is…

Thankful Thursdays

Posted on June 27, 2019 by Connie Perez

For sticky prayers…and our interceders. Some time ago, I began placing on a St. Jude prayer card sticky notes with the names of people for whom I invoke a blessing or special intention. People who are ill, who are going through some type of adversity, or who are trying to achieve something seemingly impossible. You…
