My fireplace is on tonight. This one is in my bedroom. Yeah you need them in this

You have to stay warm. ♥ I tend to catch colds when the weather changes fast.

I will be cyber shopping tomorrow and I hope it’s something that I could really use
or something someone else int he family can use. ♥

Peace Out Peeps! See you tomorrow. Cherie and Mcpoopoo, Taci I hope you ladies had a good

Let It Snow! Let It Snow! Let It Snow! – Dean Martin

Oh, the weather outside is frightful
But the fire is so delightful
And since we’ve no place to go
Let it snow, let it snow, let it snow
Man it doesn’t show signs of stoppin’
And I brought some corn for poppin’
The lights are turned way down low
Let it snow, let it snow, let it snow
When we finally kiss good-night
How I’ll hate going out in the storm
But if you really hold me tight
All the way home I’ll be warm
And the fire is slowly dying
And, my dear, we’re still good-bye-ing
But as long as you love me so
Let it snow, let it snow, and snow
When we finally kiss good-night
How I’ll hate going out in the storm
But if you really grab me tight
All the way home I’ll be warm
Oh the fire is slowly dying
And, my dear, we’re still good-bye-ing
But as long as you love me so
Let it snow, let it snow, let it snow

Winter Wonderland – The Andrew Sisters and various artists

Sleigh bells ring are you listening?
In the lane snow is glistening
A beautiful sight; oh, we’re happy tonight
Walking in a winter wonderland
Gone away is the bluebird
Here to stay is a new bird
He’s singing a song as we go along
Walking in a winter wonderland
Well, in the meadow we can build a snowman
And pretend that he is Parson Brown
He’ll say, are you married? We’ll say no man
But you can do the job when you’re in town
Later on we’ll conspire
As we dream by the fire
To face unafraid of the plans that we made
Walking in a winter wonderland
In the meadow we can build a snowman
We’ll pretend that he is Parson Brown
He’ll say, “are you married?”, we’ll say, no, man
But you can do the job when you’re in town”
Later on, we’ll conspire
As we groove by the fire
To face unafraid, plans that we’ve made
Walkin’ in a winter wonderland
Walkin’ in a winter wonderland

The earrings to the Master Clasp by Heidi Daus are not at a bad price point. ♥

I think my set is Queen of the Jungle something like that. I still have my eye on
something. ♥

I may do a little shopping but I did do some today the store was a neighborhood store
and it was not too crowed. Oh god I did eat turkey that is most all I wanted and I am
paying for it by just having not enough energy. Tomorrow I kick it in gear and move.

I am glad you had a great Thanksgiving please let me know how you like the necklace.

Hope you had a great Thanksgiving!
We sang the Sound of Silence when I was in a choir in Middle School. Love that song too.
But, I don’t want to mislead you, there is no way I am any kind of singer. It was fun though.

Will report back in a day or two on the necklace.
It arrived but I haven’t had time to check it out. I didn’t buy the set but can see why you did. I keep thinking about what earrings to wear with it and added the earrings that match your lioness necklace ( sorry forgot it’s name). To my favorites.

Will you be participating cyber sale? I took a look only.

Good luck in the arcade ladies!

So true! Over the weekend, there was a conversation about someone else like this and my thoughts – life’s too short, always be nice and move on.

Sheba, sorry for you loss.

I’ll toast to that! And back at you Sheba!

Mcpoopoo, so happy to hear you had a wonderful time!
Sounds like your ready for the season!

Here’s looking at you Taci I have this in the natural and the hemitite. ♥
I have all the matching pieces and I hope you like yours. 🙂

Combating Emotional Vampires

Relationships are always an energy exchange. To stay feeling our best, we must ask ourselves: Who gives us energy? Who saps it? It’s important to be surrounded by supportive, heart-centered people who make us feel safe and secure. It’s equally important to pinpoint the emotional vampires, who, whether they intend to or not, leech our energy.

To protect your sensitivity, it’s imperative to name and combat these emotional vampires. They’re everywhere: coworkers, neighbors, family, and friends. In Energy Psychiatry I’ve treated a revolving door of patients who’ve been hard-hit by drainers–truly a mental health epidemic that conventional medicine doesn’t see. I’m horrified by how many of these “emotionally walking wounded” (ordinarily perceptive, intelligent individuals) have become resigned to chronic anxiety or depression. Why the blind spot? Most of us haven’t been educated about draining people or how to emancipate ourselves from their clutches, requisite social skills for everyone desiring freedom. Emotional draining is a touchy subject. We don’t know how to tactfully address our needs without alienating others. The result: We get tongue-tied, or destructively passive. We ignore the SOS from our gut that screams, “Beware!” Or, quaking in our boots, we’re so afraid of the faux pas of appearing “impolite” that we become martyrs in lieu of being respectfully assertive. We don’t speak out because we don’t want to be seen as “difficult” or uncaring.

Vampires do more than drain our physical energy. The super-malignant ones can make you believe you’re an unworthy, unlovable wretch who doesn’t deserve better. The subtler species inflict damage that’s more of a slow burn. Smaller digs here and there can make you feel bad about yourself such as, “Dear, I see you’ve put on a few pounds” or “It’s not lady-like to interrupt.” In a flash, they’ve zapped you by prodding areas of shaky self-worth.

This is my credo for vampires: Their antics are unacceptable; you must develop a successful plan for coping with them. I deeply believe in the merciful message of The Lord’s Prayer to “forgive people their trespasses,” but I’m also a proponent of preventing the unconscious or mean-spirited from trespassing against us. Taking a stand against draining people is a form of self-care and canny communication that you must practice to give your freedom legs.

Have some hot Apple Cider. ♥

Be back later peeps! Enjoy your day and have fun in the Arcade. ♥
This is the time of year I lost my beloved dog Sheba. ♥
I loved that dog so much. 🙂 Not a day go by that I don’t miss her.

RIP Sheba.♥
