I am a 76 year old who just retired from 20 years as a Parish Nurse. Faith has been an important part of my life but health issues come in second.

Worrylessjourney is about my struggles and my journey to tackle this affliction head on instead of letting it rule me. My other blog “heargodinothervoices” shows how I find inspiration and growth from everything around me. I have gained much from my 76 years and it is time to share.

If there is one thing I have learned in the last week it is that a 79 year old does not bounce back. My husband has had several surgeries in the last few years…mostly from jumping out of airplanes in the army. I have had none. I have always been supportive of him during his … Continue reading Keep going

My husband loves Christmas. He can’t wait until the tree is up and the decorations out. He bought the tree while I was in the hospital but had it delivered after I came home. It is now up and decorated. (which he did) I am good but still some tired. I managed to get enough … Continue reading Lasting Memories
