Harvesting Organs

Posted on May 4, 2024February 25, 2026 by Linda

No, not those kinds of organs. Not fully intact organs either.

Gerry was in Regina all day yesterday, and is heading back again today, with a few folks from our church to salvage pieces of a pipe organ which is the same type as the one at St. Aidan, the church we attend here in Moose Jaw.

That means I’ve got more than a handful of solitude here at home. Win-win!

Yesterday, in between laundry and giving Molly a bath, I got lost in reading and researching something that’s captured my attention these days. Today, more of the same seasoned with a bit more quiet contemplation and, perhaps, some writing.

Sounds like a practically perfect way to spend a couple of quiet days to me.

    Reading, writing, and contemplation sounds wonderful! Bathing the dog? Not so much. My Sheltie has such a thick, double coat that I pawn him off on the groomer when he gets gamey!

      We love our groomer too!

Hi, I’m Linda Hoye. Welcome! I live in Saskatchewan, Canada with my husband and our Yorkie, Molly. Retired from my corporate career, I appreciate having time and opportunity to fill my days with things that nourish my soul and spirit like writing. watercolour painting, reading, gardening, and blogging about the simple joys of every day. I’ve been blogging since 2008, starting fresh here in 2022 when we moved home to Saskatchewan. May this space be a sanctuary in a very noisy world. 😊
