NATIONAL JUNK FOOD DAY

July 21 dedicates a giant menu of items to National Junk Food Day. This day permits us to chow down on the foods we usually don’t include in our daily diet.

Junk foods, by definition, typically contain high fats, sugars, salt, and calories and very little nutritional value. With the advent of packaged foods during the late 1800s, junk food made its way into American life. However, home-cooked meals remained the standard for several more decades. Eventually, after World War II, the artery-clogging industry took off. Since the population ate out more and traveled more, the industry was primed to produce products at an increased rate.

From the frozen food aisle to fast food chains, a myriad of choices for consumers flooded the market. Potato chips, baked goods and so much more filled supermarket shelves, prepackaged and ready to go.

NATIONAL BE SOMEONE DAY

On July 21, National Be Someone Day challenges each of us to take ten seconds to make a difference in a child’s life.

What can you do in ten seconds? We can shift gears, water a plant or tell a bad joke. In ten seconds, we can change our minds and say a prayer of thanks. When we walk into a room, in that time, we can register the pain in someone’s eyes and begin to provide comfort. In child advocacy, it takes one stable, caring adult to completely alter a child’s trajectory and build resilience against trauma.

Studies in child development consistently show that the presence of just one supportive, reliable adult can act as a powerful buffer against the long-term effects of adversity and abuse.

We can also commit to reporting child abuse. On July 21st, take the pledge to be the person to make a difference in a child’s life. Most importantly, be someone prepared to report when a child trusts you enough and tells you they are experiencing abuse. Ten seconds can change a child’s life.

Good Morning Peeps and enjoy the HSN Community. 😎🎈

Man in the Mirror
Song by Michael Jackson

I’m gonna make a change
For once in my life
It’s gonna feel real good
Gonna make a difference, gonna make it right
As I turn up the collar on my favorite winter coat
This wind is blowin’ my mind
I see the kids in the street with not enough to eat
Who am I to be blind, pretending not to see their needs?
A summer’s disregard, a broken bottle top
And a one man’s soul
They follow each other on the wind, ya know
‘Cause they got nowhere to go
That’s why I want you to know
I’m starting with the man in the mirror
I’m asking him to change his ways
And no message could have been any clearer
If you wanna make the world a better place
Take a look at yourself and then make a change
Na-na-na, na-na-na, na-na-na-na
Uh-huh
I’ve been a victim of a selfish kinda love
It’s time that I realize
There are some with no home, not a nickel to loan
Could it be really me pretending that they’re not alone?
A willow deeply scarred, somebody’s broken heart
And a washed-out dream (a washed-out dream)
They follow the pattern of the wind, ya see
‘Cause they got no place to be
That’s why I’m starting with me
I’m starting with the man in the mirror (who?)
I’m asking him to change his ways (who?)
And no message could have been any clearer
If you wanna make the world a better place
Take a look at yourself and then make a change
I’m starting with the man in the mirror (who?)
I’m asking him to change his ways (who?)
And no message could have been any clearer
If you wanna make the world a better place
Take a look at yourself and then make that change
I’m starting with the man in the mirror (oh, yeah)
I’m asking him to change his ways (oh, you better change)
No message could have been any clearer
If you wanna make the world a better place
Take a look at yourself and then make the change
You gotta get it right while you got the time
‘Cause when you close your heart (you can’t)
Then you close your (your) mind (that man, that man)
With the man in the mirror, oh, yeah (that man, that man)
I’m asking him to change his ways (that man, that man, that man)
Oh, you better change (you know, that man)
And no message could have been any clearer
If you wanna make the world a better place
Take a look at yourself and then make that change
Na-na-na, na-na-na, na-na-na-na
(Ooh) gonna feel real good, yeah (oh, yeah)
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah (na-na-na), yeah, yeah (na-na-na, na-na-na-na)
Oh-oh, oh, no
I’m gonna make a change
It’s gonna feel real good, shamone (change)
Just lift yourself, you know
You’ve got to start with yourself (yeah)
I gotta make that change today
(Man in the mirror) you’ve got to
You got to start with yourself, brother
(Yeah) you know
I’ve got to be that man, that man
(Man in the mirror) you’ve got to
You got to move, shamone, shamone
You got to stand up (yeah), stand up (make that change), stand up
Stand up and lift yourself now (man in the mirror)
Go make that change, shamone (man in the mirror)
You know it, you know it, you know it, you know (change)
Make that change

NATIONAL PENNSYLVANIA DAY

National Pennsylvania Day on July 20 recognizes the second state to join the Union. Once the home of the temporary capital of the United States in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania is also known as the Keystone State. While the source of the nickname has been forgotten, the meaning is not lost. Bridge builders know leaving the vital keystone out of their structure would be folly, leading to collapse.

Known as the Keystone State, Pennsylvania played many roles that could be considered keystones. To begin with, its vote for independence split between eight delegates. Because of this, the split played a vital role in deciding to move toward independence and cementing the union of the newly formed country. As we know, the Declaration of Independence and the U.S. Constitution were signed in Philadelphia during its tenure as the temporary capital. It was geographically centered among the 13 original colonies.

NATIONAL FORTUNE COOKIE DAY

We see a time when you will enjoy a crunchy, sweet treat on National Fortune Cookie Day! Each year on July 20, Americans celebrate the cookie that is a traditional part of Chinese take-out.

These crisp, folded cookies have a hint of buttery sweetness. Break them open, and you will find a slip of paper tucked inside with a message on it. The phrase will range from profound words of wisdom or tricky riddles to simple bits of common sense. Some fortunes include quotes from famous philosophers.

NATIONAL GET OUT OF THE DOGHOUSE DAY

Occasionally, we all need a free pass. National Get Out of the Doghouse Day on the third Monday in July offers the fast track home we all need once in a while.

Generally, when you are “in the doghouse,” you have fallen out of favor with someone, usually your spouse or significant other. However, you can also be “in the doghouse” with a friend or your boss at work. This day uses all those good cliches to get you back in the big house where you belong.

NATIONAL LOLLIPOP DAY

July 20 recognizes National Lollipop Day as a way to celebrate this enduring and ever-popular treat. Pick up your favorite flavor to savor!

Ever delightful and sweet, lollipops have satisfied generations of sweet tooths. And it’s possible they’ve been doing that for centuries. However, no one is sure how old the lollipop is. During prehistoric times, a form of lollipop may have preserved nuts and berries in honey. As sugar became plentiful, lollipops appeared much later in 16th century Europe.

In the United States, confectionaries and medicine shops as early as the 1860s sold lollipops in various forms. However, George Smith gave this sweet treat an official 20th-century story in 1908. Smith earns credit for inventing the modern style lollipop. In 1931, Smith trademarked the name which he claims came from his favorite racing horse, Lolly Pops.

Lollipops range in size. For variety, the smaller candies can be purchased by the bagful. Banks, barbershops, and vendors at parades give the sweet treat away to customers, too! Specialty candy shops make giant lollipops in a variety of bright colors, shapes, and sizes. While they are attractive, these lollipops can be cumbersome and often are more than we can handle!

NATIONAL MOON DAY

National Moon Day on July 20 commemorates the day man first walked on the moon in 1969. NASA reported the moon landing as being “…the single greatest technological achievement of all time.”

On July 20, 1969, Apollo 11 carried the first humans to the moon. Six hours after landing on the moon, American Neil Armstrong stepped onto the lunar surface. He spent two and a half hours outside the spacecraft. Buzz Aldrin soon followed, stepping onto the lunar surface. After joining Armstrong, the two men collected 47.5 pounds of lunar material. Their specimens would make the journey back to Earth to be analyzed. In the command module, a third astronaut waited. Pilot, Michael Collins, remained alone in orbit until Armstrong and Aldrin returned.

“One small step for man, one giant leap for mankind.”
Neil Armstrong, Astronaut, Apollo 11

Caught up in the thrill of the adventure, millions of Americans watched the mission from Earth. Televisions around the world tuned in to the live broadcasts. The astronauts had a worldwide audience. National Moon Day doesn’t just celebrate the landmark mission. It also celebrates future missions. Private expeditions are taking humans further into space. Armstrong’s “one small step for man” inspired imaginations and sparked innovation, too, for generations to come. Even future moon missions are planned including manned landings.

Unquestionably, putting men on the moon became a tangible achievement in the space race. It placed the United States in a role to go forth and explore into the deeper reaches of the universe, too. In the months and decades that followed, NASA and the Soviets stepped up their missions.

Every July 20, the world celebrates International Moon Day, an official United Nations observance dedicated to lunar exploration and humanity’s enduring fascination with the Moon.
The date commemorates the historic Apollo 11 mission. On July 20, 1969, Neil Armstrong and Buzz Aldrin landed on the lunar surface while Michael Collins remained in orbit. It was the first time humans reached another world.
For centuries, the Moon has inspired myths, rituals, poetry, scientific discoveries, and countless creatures of the night. It has watched over witches, wolves, dreamers, and lonely souls—and tonight, it shines for all of us.

@oodiebom,

Good day on the Gulf Coast of Florida. 🎈😎Oodie I hope the weather is alright. Hopefully
no heavy rain.

Oz is blazing right now I am eating very light. I think it’s too bad their is so much recall
on fruits and veggies. Oh well it is what it is. Shizzle!

Be careful driving and walking in this weather. 😎We are in the dog days of summer here
in Oz.

@sheba2011

Enjoying the flowrs especially the ones on the door in the basket. I may try to replicate that one.

I just returned home from a nice visit with hubs. He was in his room. Though the prediction was for rain and wind,l it was sunny with temps in the 80s. Humidity was high. Rain on the return home, but nothing much to write about. However, tomorrow may be a different story. Tropical storm #2 in the Gulf just was named Bertha. Tomorrow is rain and loads of wind. Should be an inter4sting day since I really need to purchase veggies and fruit. Not sure which place I will head to first. Aldi’s or the Farmer’s Market.

I ordered out tonight once I was at the rehab. Though hubs ate every morsal on his plate, he had a yen for a meatball grinder. Hubs asked for a side order of fries. Hubs ate half of the grinder. No problem in swallowing since Iportioned each piece out. The fries were a double portion which I didn’t ask for. They were delicious. I surmise the owners and manager had gone on a vacation. The food and portion size were back to normal and then some. After yesterday’s torrential rain, this dinner came in handy. I also order a philly steak grinder for the receptionist.

My head is starting to pound. Time for meds. Evidently the barometer is now heading downward. Have a wonderful evening. Stay cool.

@oodiebom,

Good Evening I am so sorry a headache may be on the horizon. Yikes! I had the worse
a couple weeks ago i had to close every window and just lay still. I have never had that
happen to me. I am in tip top shape so i think it may have been weather related because
we had more rain that week than i have ever seen. All good i have not had one since and i
get them twice a year. I have special meds for them to knock them out. 😎 I let my Doctor
know everything.

Glad your husband was able to eat some good solid food. I would have went to town on
that grinder too. Florida seems to have good food and good fruits and veggies. 💕

Oz is alright if you go to the right open Market and I love to buy fresh fruits and veggies
from the Amish and local farmers which we have a lot in OZ. 💕😎 No worries i am not
eating everything due to the food issues we are having. I am making sure everything is clean
and I always wash anything I eat. I prefer cooking my veggies.

Enjoy some ice cold tea with your Manuka Honey and take your meds and just relax. 🎈
Rest well Oodie.

@taci,

Good morning in S. California and may this little post find you doing well. 🎈😎

Enjoy the trails. 😎🎈

@shoelady60,

Good day in the ‘burgh. 😎🎈The heat is on in OZ my goodness. I hope the animals
are alright they go through so much.

What a Game with the World Cup yesterday. I am going to my neighbors out back
they own Poppy’s Girlfriend Nora. Poppy tail just shakes when he is around her.
The neighbor owns a Condo in Seville and I am having them bring back something
from Spain. 😎💕

I am going to try and keep cool I am wishing for a fall day. 😎

Sending cool vibes to you and jake. 💕🎈😎

@sheba2011

Very nice day in the ‘burgh. Sunny and no humidity. Tomorrow we will have some showers.

Feel sluggish today, probably because I haven’t eaten much yesterday and today.😟 Going to make a rice dish for dinner, easy and easy leftovers.🍚

I hope Miss Kitty is behaving. I saw two baby bunnies chasing each other around my yard. Not sure how many I have right now.🐇

Sending cool hugs to you and Poppy.🤗💖

@shoelady60,

Good Evening I don’t feel like eating too darn hot. 😎 I am drinking water and very light
food. Oz will be 105 degrees tomorrow and the rest of the week.

We may get some light rain which will be wonderful for everything including the animals. 💕

Here is to a nice cool down. 💕😎🎈

Lady remember when I had lots of bunnies in my yard I now see them on another block.
Every day hubby would feed them baby carrots before leaving for work. Try that if you
like doing feeding and no I did not get more bunnies. I so enjoyed looking at them eating.

I am going to jump in the shower and watch the day off I want to feel cool and calm. 😎

Wishing you sweet dreams my friend. 😘💕

😎🎈Viva Spain.

Flowers
Song by Miley Cyrus

We were good, we were gold
Kinda dream that can’t be sold
We were right ’til we weren’t
Built a home and watched it burn
Mm, I didn’t wanna leave you
I didn’t wanna lie
Started to cry, but then remembered I
I can buy myself flowers
Write my name in the sand
Talk to myself for hours
Say things you don’t understand
I can take myself dancing
And I can hold my own hand
Yeah, I can love me better than you can
Can love me better
I can love me better, baby
Can love me better
I can love me better, baby
Paint my nails cherry red
Match the roses that you left
No remorse, no regret
I forgive every word you said
Ooh, I didn’t wanna leave you, baby
I didn’t wanna fight
Started to cry, but then remembered I
I can buy myself flowers
Write my name in the sand
Talk to myself for hours, yeah
Say things you don’t understand
I can take myself dancing, yeah
I can hold my own hand
Yeah, I can love me better than you can
Can love me better
I can love me better, baby
Can love me better
I can love me better, baby
Can love me better
I can love me better, baby
Can love me better
Oh, I
I didn’t wanna leave you
I didn’t wanna fight
Started to cry, but then remembered I
I can buy myself flowers (oh)
Write my name in the sand (mm)
Talk to myself for hours (yeah)
Say things you don’t understand (you never will)
I can take myself dancing, yeah
I can hold my own hand
Yeah, I can love me better than
Yeah, I can love me better than you can

@oodiebom,

Good day on the Gulf Coast of Florida. 😎Oz is blazing hot and I am not in a hurry to do
anything. I am keeping an eye on the animals if I see them. 💕

I hope you have gentle rain please be careful visiting or shopping today.

When you have the time let me know how you are doing. 😎🎈

@sheba2011

I was rudely awakened around 3 am. Lighning and loud thunder claps. It lasted at least 2 hours. I was able to get a shower in and start the washer around noon. Then as it started up another thunder storm that was more intense than the one earlier. Torrential rainfall. This went on for three or more hours. Tomorrow we will have the same thing and it will go on for the rest of the week. This rain, as you know, is sorely needed. Still not sure if our drought will be over. If not, then a huge dent. Temp is in the 80s and the humidity is high. We will be in the mid 70s tonight. We have a rip current statement that started early am and will end tomorrow night. Wind will pick up tomorrow. Not sure if this tropical depression will get a name. It will be close.

I did not venture out to see hubs. Most of the roads leading to the rehab have huge puddles. Many streets are flooded. More of the same tomorrow. The garbage and recycle are all set to be put out. Just not sure if there will be a pickup tomorrow. The wind velocity could be the deciding factor. Yes, I am hurting. Every muscle and lower back is feeling the impact of the weather. So far the headache has been minimal. Not sure if this weather will be going up the East coast. Right now it seems to be hitting Texas, Louisana, Alabama, etc.. The panhandle and Jacksonville thus far has been spared.

@oodiebom,

Good Evening very wise of you to stay home I would not chance it you know your area
better than anyone. 😎 Stay safe is the rule.

i would not worry about trash as it’s only you and you have two pick up days in one week.
I wish Oz had that I would be a happy camper and yeah some days my recycle and trash
bins are out in the street due to heavy and strong winds. I feel well at least they got the
trash. 😎

Glad you are feeling better and thankful for some rain. 💕

Enjoy something cool to drink and I hope you are able to sleep tonight.
Sweet Dreams. 💕🎈

@taci,

Good day in S. California I am wishing you and yours a wonderful Sunday. 🎈

Enjoy the trails and stay cool. 🎈😎

@shoelady60,

Good day in the ‘burgh. 😎🎈Hot as Hades here in OZ. There are no words.

Well it’s half time at the world cup. I will see ya later.

Stay cool and comfy today.

Sending cool vibes to you and Jake. 🎈😎💕

@sheba2011

Wow, what a final game!⚽ I didn’t even take the time to cook dinner. Hubs had soup and crackers and I had watermelon, lol!🤣 I didn’t care who won but Spain definitely played better. Congrats to them!!🏆

Much cooler today, around 80, and I think I will be able to open some windows tonight. Something I haven’t done in weeks. But it will be up and down all week so the a/c will be on and off.

Pour yourself a cool one this evening with me.🧊 Sending winning hugs to you and Poppy.🤗💖

@shoelady60,

Good evening and what a game. I was watching and posting so when they were
at half time I needed to focus more.

Lady you know my backyard neighbors brought a three bedroom condo there in
Seville, Spain I am sure they are having a ball. 🎈💕😎Also my area hosted
Argentina for their Games here in OZ. The City felt alive and busy.

I was two steps ahead of the Games I had get Asian Take Out. We were in the triple digits
and I knew I was not cooking. I love you and hubby meal. The Watermelon would have suited
me fine good for you too. I love soup so it would have been all good.

Triple digits tomorrow and all week pray for us. 😎 I am going to jump in the shower
and take a Perlier nice cool shower with all the cremes and powder that goes with it. 💕

I have been running across the street to make sure the cat is eating. Miss Kitty is so bossy.

I am teaching her to let others eat and rest too.

Hey here is to a calm and relaxing night. 💕😎

This is how Miss Kitty acts lol. 😎💕

Enjoy what you do. 😎

Boyz II Men Lyrics
“End Of The Road”

We belong together
And you know that I’m right
Why do you play with my heart?
Why do you play with my mind?

Said we’d be forever
Said it’d never die
How could you love me and leave me
And never say goodbye?

When I can’t sleep at night
Without holding you tight
Girl, each time I try
I just break down and cry
Pain in my head
Oh, I’d rather be dead
Spinnin’ around and around

Although we’ve come to the end of the road
Still I can’t let go
It’s unnatural, you belong to me, I belong to you
Come to the end of the road
Still I can’t let go
It’s unnatural, you belong to me, I belong to you

Girl, I know you really love me,
You just don’t realize
You’ve never been there before
It’s only your first time

Maybe I’ll forgive you
Maybe you’ll try
We should be happy together
Forever, you and I

Will you love me again like you loved me before
This time I want you to love me much more
This time instead just come to my bed
And, baby, just don’t let me down

Although we’ve come to the end of the road (End of the road)
Still I can’t let go (The end of the road and I know I can’t let go, baby)
It’s unnatural, you belong to me, I belong to you
Come to the end of the road
Still I can’t let go
It’s unnatural, you belong to me, I belong to you

Maybe I’ll forgive you
Maybe you’ll try
We should be happy together
Forever, you and I

I’m so lonely (lonely)
So lonely (lonely)
So lonely (lonely)
Lonely

This time instead
Just come to my bed
And, baby, don’t let me down

Although we’ve come to the end of the road (end of the road)
Still I can’t let go (and I don’t know what can I do)
It’s unnatural (I can’t let you go), you belong to me, I belong to you
Although we’ve come to the end of the road
(Oh, my God)
Still I can’t let go
(Oh, my God, help me out a little bit, baby, baby)
It’s unnatural, you belong to me, I belong to you

We’ve come to the end of the road
Still I can’t let go
It’s unnatural, you belong to me, I belong to you
Come to the end of the road
Still I can’t let go
It’s unnatural, you belong to me, I belong to you

TOSS AWAY THE “COULD HAVES” AND “SHOULD HAVES” DAY

Across the United States, the third Saturday in July recognizes Toss Away the “Could Haves” and “Should Haves” Day. This day is a dedicated reminder not to go through life weighed down by regrets.

NATIONAL CAVIAR DAY

On July 18, National Caviar Day recognizes a seafood delicacy with roe on toast. The day also raises awareness about the survival of the sturgeon.

In simple terms, caviar is Sturgeon fish eggs. There are several species of Sturgeon fish. As a result, the caviar produced varies in colors depending on the species. Caviar is full of protein and vitamins making the delicacy a healthy meal.

True caviar only comes from fish belonging to the Acipenseridae (sturgeon) family, which includes 27 different species. Caviar coming from any other fish is not true caviar.

NATIONAL TROPICAL FRUIT DAY

Today is July 18 on the National Day Calendar and we are celebrating the delicious food holiday National Tropical Fruit Day. This fruity celebrates the variety of exotic tropical fruit from around the world and gives us the opportunity to get a taste of some sweet facts, too.

Tropical fruits grow in regions where the weather is hot and humid in regions we call the Tropic of Cancer and Tropic of Capricorn. Asia, Africa, Central and South Americas, and the Caribbean produce some of the most delicious tropical fruits in the world. National Tropical Fruit Day presents an opportunity to snack, cook, and sample tropical fruit all day long!

NATIONAL SOUR CANDY DAY

July 18 is National Sour Candy Day! Adults and children alike will enjoy lip-puckering, eye-watering flavors. Choose your favorite sour candy and celebrate!

In the world of candy, sour candy is the young, energetic, and fun member of the candy family. It awakens the taste buds and adds a punch of youthful energy. Every flavor combination out there creates a dazzling taste sensation. Surprisingly, sometimes a sweet candy delivers a walloping tear-jerking zap in a bite-sized lozenge or sucker that lasts for several minutes. Other times, it delivers the punch in a chewy form. These fun sour candies come in a variety of entertaining shapes and sizes. From chewy twists and ropes to sweet bite-sized pieces and straws, each one creates a unique juicy tang.

NATIONAL WOODIE WAGON DAY

National Woodie Wagon Day on the third Saturday in July celebrates the classic automotive icon that defined an era of craftsmanship, family road trips, and surf culture. These wood-paneled vehicles transitioned from utilitarian workhorses to highly collectible symbols of Americana. Today, we honor the history, the owners, and the restoration enthusiasts who keep these rolling pieces of art on the road.

Good Day Peeps and have fun in the HSN Community. 🎈😎

This is a good day for some Ice Cold Tea. 😎🎈💕

@oodiebom,

Good day on the Gulf Coast of Florida. 🎈😎I am hoping you have gentle rain.
OZ is steaming today as is a lot of States.

I hope you are feeling well and not too hot. Hey welcome to the new Conversation
Thread I felt it was time to change to a new one. All these years I can’t believe I am
still doing this on the daily. 😎🎈💕I can remember when our community was full
and vibrant with people doing all kinds of threads this is not my only thread I have many
more out there more than I can count. 💕😎

Oodie if it is too hot or too much rain stay home and stay safe. Let me know how things
goes for you when youu can. I try not to intrude on people’s time. I just want you to know
someone is concern because I have been on this journey with you for years. Please take
care. 😎🎈

Had a note to you yesterday and as I approached the recaptcha, it went into oblivion. I was typing a second note just a few seconds ago. It, too, went the same route. Here I go again.

I ordered and received Samantha Brown’s freezer bag. It is huge and bulky. Used it for the first time yesterday. I have to admit that it holds everything and then some. I used the top portion for items I usually carry in a large tote bag. It held everything and then some. The pocket area held a huge salad with utensils, 6 cans of sugar free soda (warm when they went in) and two large cherry cheese cakes with fresh cherries on top), two freezer paks and still had room for more stuff. Oh, forgot. I also added purified water and one Smart water just in case. Instead of using two separate bags, this one holds everything. Could not believe it. And when I finally wheeled hubs to his room an hour or so later, the cans of soda and my water were iced cold. Totally impressed. Hubs enjoyed one can of Cream sugar free soda and I opened the purified water. I was totally impressed. Used the trolley so I wouldn’t need to carry the freezer bag. The dining room is a long hallway from the front door. It actually goes to the next level (upward climb).

We have had rain on and off. Friday morning around 3 am we had a thunderstorm that lasted until 5am. Not good for sleeping. It’s been raining on and off since then. Luckily I was able to drive when it was just cloudy. Last night I saw the moon. Not bright. Beautiful sunset. I thought for sure that the rain had ended. An hour later, light rain. Thankfully, no real downpours. But that will change on Sunday. We will have rain the rest of the week. I am dancing for joy. So happy..

@oodiebom,

I am going to wish you a good night of rest. I am glad you and hubby had a nice visit.
Glad you had some rain i just hope it does not go awry. Just enough to water the earth.

If you can get some watermelons are good this time of year. I like it nice and cold. 😎💕
Hey Clean Boss is on free shipping and a lower price I already made my order.

@taci,

Good day in S. California. 😎 Taci I hope all is going well for you and your family. 🎈

Enjoy the trails.

@shoelady60,

Good day in the ‘burgh and welcome to the new Conversation Thread. 😎💕🎈I enjoy
our banter on this thread. 💕😎 Lady you are so much fun and funny as all get out.

Here is a little something to keep you cool. 😎🎈Lady I am not rushing anything
today OZ is super hot. I meant to tell you yesterday while I was at the hospital I had
to walk a mile to get to the other side for my Doctor’s appointment. The walk was
not bad and my bp was low when they took it I also climb up some stairs. LOL!

I have to say I was doing this also and that and I slept like a baby. 😎

Sending cool vibes to you and Jake. 😎💕

@sheba2011

Thank you for being so dedicated every single day. I always look forward to your posts and pictures. It has become a normal part of my day.☺️

Glad to hear you are in tip-top shape. Sometimes where you park and where you have to be in the hospital is very inconvenient. There have been times where I’ve had to stop and sit down for a minute or two because of the long trek. My knees are not happy.☹️

We are still under a storm warning. A lot of the smoke has left but more is supposed to slide back in tomorrow, sigh.

Thanks for the delicious drink, my favorite!🍸 Sending super big hugs to you and Poppy.🤗💖

@shoelady60,

Good Evening i like the way you post and you notice everything I appreciate that. 😎
I do work hard on this thread sometimes it’s easy sometimes it can be a challenge
either way I like what I do. 💕

Here is something refreshing to make your night.

Hey tomorrow good game with the World Cup and I will be watching. 😎🎈I like both
teams so we shall see.

OZ is warm and will be warmer with every passing day. 😎I think this is time I wish for
a nice cool 50 degree with rain. 💕This would be good for the animals and the plants.

Here is to sweet dreams. 💕😎
