Hello World
Posted by: richfieldblogger on: November 20, 2009
I back for a little posting today. It’s great to have a Friday that’s truly off. It’s a beautiful Minnesota fall day in an unseasonably warm month of November.
Maybe this year’s Thanksgiving will call for a game of baseball or football in the great outdoors free of snow, rain, cold and yucky weather.
Here’s hoping your Thanksgiving holiday will be a great one for you.
God’s blessings always!

Ok, it’s been ages since I’ve made a post here. Lots has happened since my post in June. I finished the class I was taking and I’ve started another class this Fall semester.
I continue to work at TRA in the same position I’ve held for ages. I’m still contemplating retirement, but don’t feel I can pull the trigger on that at this time. Stay tuned on that.
On September 19th Penny and I and 200+ other participants did the Liz Logelin Foundation walk around Lake Calhoun in memory of Liz and in support of Matt and Madeline. Then on Sunday the 20th we attended the foundation’s gala at the Calhoun Beach Club in Minneapolis.
Last weekend Penny and I joined Jeff at a Biggest Loser taping for Jeff’s friend’s father and sister. Look for us when this family segment gets started in January.
Meanwhile the class I’m in is beckoning me now because I have an assignment to complete for Wednesday evening’s class.
Guess that’s all for now folks. God’s blessing always!

Some time in May is now some time in June

Life is busy indeed and the time for blogging has not really presented itself very well. Blogging time seems to be in the same place as exercise time. Well, maybe it’s ahead of exercise, but it’s a long ways behind everyday things.
Maybe you’d like to leave me a note of encouragement as a comment to this post. Pretty please!
Thanks for visiting. Till a little later,
God’s blessings to you always!
On inviting and being welcoming

I welcome you and invite you to return as I develop this site to one you’ll want to revisit. I’ll need to dedicate more time to this than I have in the past. I think I’ll be able to do that beginning some time in May.
Meanwhile I thank you for stopping by today!
I love Lake Louise
God’s peace be with you

Again it’s been a while since I’ve been here to post.
I just visited Matt’s site and was inspired to write again. There’s a video of him and Madeline doing a photo shoot with Gina, a professional photographer who came to know Matt and Madeline and now does occasional photo shoots of them. Madeline is such a darling and Matt interacts with her so beautifully. I think you’ll enjoy this video link, if I can figure out how to insert it.
Ok, I tried to insert it and it worked, but differently than I had hoped. You can now see this cute little video, so check it out.
Any helpful comments you have to help educate me on this hyperlinking or other blogging tips would be appreciated.
Easter 2009 is fast approaching. Truly the high point of the Christian’s year. Christ’s sacrificial death brings us eternal life. It makes no sense to us, but God’s wisdom is so much greater than our combined wisdom. Palm Sunday is tomorrow, attending a Christian Palm Sunday service is a great way to begin this Holy Week!
God bless you always!
Way overdue!

I’ve been away for a long time. Lots has happened during the past five months.
My oldest brother, Dwain, passed away on August 12th after an illness that had worsened over the months since February. Dwain would have been 87 in September. Dwain’s wife continues to live in their Bismarck home. We were able to visit Dwain during the July 4th weekend. Then we attended his funeral on August 16th. Our children Renee and Jeff and Renee’s husband Rob also attended the funeral and the memorial service the evening prior to the funeral.
Our son Jeff began his senior year at Marquette University in late August. Jeff came home during a four-day break period in October and then returned to college. On October 28th we received a phone call from a Marquette contact that indicated that Jeff was having difficulties at school. Early on the 29th we drove to Milwaukee. We completed the round trip that evening when we brought Jeff home with us. I’m sparing you many details here, but the result is that Jeff had an accident on October 30th that caused a traumatic brain injury (TBI). Jeff was rushed to surgery which ultimately has proven to be very successful. Jeff spent two weeks in the HCMC intensive care unit, then transferred to another level of care at HCMC and finally transferred again to Knapp Rehabilitation Center, which is located within Hennepin County Medical Center.
If you wish to do so you can read our Caring Bridge journal of Jeff’s recovery at www.CaringBridge.org/visit/jefffick
There’s way more to tell, but time for blogging has expired for today.
A healthy Jeff having fun
