Those who follow “Notes” regularly know that Brenda, Amanda and I are living in our ancestral home while caring for our Mother, Nancy (Amanda’s grandmother), who struggles with dementia.

In many ways this disease ( at least the stage we are in) reminds me of raising teen-agers. Mom has gotten very cheeky, and that leads to some very funny conversations.

One of the things we are working on with Mom is her diet. She does not eat very well, partly because of her teeth (the repairs to which are put on hold for the moment due to Covid) and partly because she has a sweet tooth that never quits. the 3P.M.-5P.M. hour is reminiscent of when my kids were teens. They would come in from the day and start snacking, to which this parent would say, “Don’t eat too many snacks. You will ruin your dinner.”

I don’t know if…

Here is Amanda making cupcakish things. Her show airs live every Monday at 3 P.M. on our Cornerstone Facebook Page.

Here is Cornerstone’s Mother’s Day message preached by our Pastor’s wife, Rev. Jen Lewiston.

Here is our prayer meeting for last Wednesday, May 6th. Join us this Wednesday at 7 P.M. for the next meeting.
