very sad news.

@kittengirl,

I am going to name you BraveHeart. ♥ I don’t think I would have lasted that long.
I feel your fear as you were going through that procedure. I wish you could have
seen Cuddles picture. Thank god for the music. Kitten if I ever get something like that
I want to go quick. I mean it. I did not know you had AFib too. Please take it easy.

I hope this will help you. I will say a prayer for you tonight I promise. I don’t like to see
anyone suffer. Keep those kitties around you I know they bring you comfort. Please
get some rest BraveHeart. ♥

@Sheba,
I just got home. I did not like that but I got through it. I kept wishing I just had someone to hold my hand. It was scary when they first put me in the tunnel tube thing but my head didn’t go in so I got to see part of the ceiling which helped big time. It was very deceiving when you first get on the table because you have no idea how little space there is until they push you in. I freaked out a little until they reassured me my head would not be inside, but maybe up to my chin. Then they hooked me up and got my IV ready and put me in to check for proper placement for the camera and then it began. 40 minutes of lying still with my arms back above my head. I couldn’t see Cuddles picture but they put her in my pocket and covered me with the blanket. It was very cold in that room! The techs were really nice and I had speakers by my ear so I could listen to music. They said to breathe through my nose and out my mouth because it would get oxygen to my brain and help to keep me from panicking. Boy did that help once they injected me with the drug that made my heart race. I felt like I was going to pass out but I kept breathing and soon the tech told me that I had reached the peak and my heart rate would start slowing down. That helped immensely knowing that. I do not like to feel my heart racing and pounding and being out of breath because that is what happens when I go into A-Fib. I can’t even talk sometimes and it is very scary. Anyway, it was over finally after my heart calmed down. They told me I would have a headache and might have to go to the bathroom. I did feel both of those things and was dizzy for a while. My body felt like jello. When I got to my car I burst into tears and just sobbed. I think it was the medicine and all that adrenaline. Also, there was an owl perched on the building roof by my car. I know that was sent by my mom (she loved owls). She had gone through the same test and I know she was with me. I could feel the prayers Girls, so thank you! 😀 Next time it won’t be so scary because I know what to expect. I am not looking forward to it again but at least I know I will get through it. I imagined God holding my hands.
After that, we went to Urgent Care because my sutures sight has become infected. Now I am on antibiotics. Always hard on me because of the UC. I am taking Keflex which I have never taken before so I hope I can handle it well especially since I have my dental appointment tomorrow. It has been a long day but it is behind me now, Thank God!
Sheba, I hope you are staying warm and your cold is better! Hugs to Poppy!

@loaf, I hope you are doing ok and your family too. i know it is very hard for you right now.
I had to laugh at your comment about telling yourself to not shop! I do that too! I love those Iman sweaters you mentioned. I have the grey and the oatmeal in my shopping bag. I might also get the black or sangria. Cherie bought the sangria when Iman first brought them.

@bichon18,
I hope you take some time to rest. You have been very busy lately. Give Ari hugs for me! 😀

@taci,
So I guess we will at some point hear of your flying adventures? Take it easy and enjoy those walks.

@Cherie,
Thank you for thinking of me today and for the prayers. Like I said, I could feel them. 😀 I listened to Joel Osteen this morning and felt I would get through it. Some people sail right through these things. And then there is me. But God helps me where I am. 😀

Hope everyone has had a good day! Hugs to everyone! 😀

@loaf,

You and Cherie’s Mom use this. What should I get? The TS looks interesting.
I want to see his presentations that is how I buy things. Arpel was the first to start
skin education on TV and HSN I still use her today. ♥

Hi Sheba;

Luke Perry. Who could have though of that. What a shame.

Jerry’s friend who we are visiting in Belgium looks very much like Luke Perry. The handsomeness of that beautiful young man. Such a shame.

I see different times for Heidi. This rose pendant necklace and the cords. I don’t know. Gosh, I am addicted. Help, SOS. I ordered the Tulliere necklace for myself. It is beautiful. I showed it to Jerry since we are thinking of gifts to bring to our friends in Belgium. I asked if he thougt it would be appropriate for his friends wife he said perfect so one is on the way.

I wish I could find something in red. I want to do some fill ins with a black bracelet and some red something or other. It will happen. In the meantime the TS will come.

Give a Poppy a big hug from Ari.

Only good thoughts for you my virtual pal.

Auntie Aim

@loaf,

Loaf I would love to see some of her recipes. ♥ This is what will keep her food alive never
forgetting her. Loaf talk about her as much as you want to I loved her too. ♥

Coy Luther Perry III was an American actor. He became a teen idol for playing Dylan McKay on the TV series Beverly Hills, 90210 from 1990 to 1995, and again from 1998 to 2000.
Born: October 11, 1966, Mansfield, OH

RIP Luke Perry. ♥ Loaf I have dreamed about him many times. 🙂

OMG! I am so sorry to hear this! I am so sad. That’s it… No more putting off my surgery. I don’t want to end up like him. How sad for his family and friends. Too young. I am so glad that I’m am one who has symptoms because it has saved my life! So many people with my heart issues don’t know it and just drop dead or have a stroke. I have to not be scared today. Today’s test will just give the Dr a better look at my heart for proceeding with the surgery. That’s how I am going to look at it so I won’t be scared. I’m about to leave in a minute. Sheba, saw your post below and will post when I get home. Cuddles picture is always with me in my wallet. Wish me well! 😀 Hugs and love…

OMG! Luke Perry has passed. I cannot believe this. RIP Luke Perry.
I had a huge crush on him like everyone else. Prayers to his family.

MEOW! ♥♥

@kittengirl,

Top of the morning to you and I know you are a little nervous. Everything will be alright.
Hugs to the kitties. Will you have your grandson this week on Wednesday? Take your
time today and have a good one. 🙂 Don’t forget Cuddles picture.

@bichon18,

Morning to you and Jerry I know you have a busy day today. Hugs to little Ari.
Amy those big dogs in the fenced yard the people who own the house is new.
I have walked for years with Poppy and I have never seen or heard those dogs.

I may let the owner know what happened. Poppy was not scared one bit neither was I.
Simply put I don’t want to see anyone’s pet get hurt and there are others who walk at
different times then me and they may not be so nice. 🙂

Hey enjoy the day Heidi Daus will not be far behind coming soon. Do we even know or
guess the TS?

Here is a great afternoon drink for you and Jerry this is from Chef Ming. ♥

Finding Our Life’s Work

Your most important work in this lifetime may not be your job – it’s a conviction within your soul, recognizable if you allow it to shine.

Sometimes it takes us the better part of a lifetime to discover our life’s work, even though we may have been doing it our whole lives without necessarily realizing it. Our life’s work is not always what we do to make money, although we often think it should be, and sometimes this way of thinking prevents us from seeing clearly what it is. It may be the work of having children, caring for them, and running a household. The way we know our life’s work is by how we feel when we are doing it.

When we are doing our life’s work, we feel an uncanny sense of ease and alignment. This doesn’t mean that the work is always easy, and it doesn’t mean that it’s the only work we have to do; it just means that there is a conviction deep inside us that tells us we are in tune with our innermost self. When we are engaged in our life’s work, our bodies feel more alive, because our energy is devoted to a cause that, in turn, feeds us. We may be tired after engaging in our life’s work, but we are almost never depleted. We feel grounded in the world, knowing that we belong here and have something important to offer.

When we are deeply unhappy, depressed, or subject to one illness after another, this may be due to a sense of disconnection from our life’s work. At times like these, finding the work we are meant to do is an essential act of healing. Most of us remember a time when we felt fully engaged in some act of work, service or creativity, and it is here that we may rediscover the work we are meant to do now. On the other hand, it may be time to explore what inspires us through volunteering, taking a class, going back to school, or just doing whatever it is we long to try. We all have callings, and when we find them, we owe it to ourselves to nurture and protect them, because while they may or may not be our livelihood, they are the keys to our wellbeing.

Cherie,

Good Morning in sunny Cali. Yes I enjoy listening to Joel Osteen and don’t forget when you
get your new car he is on SiriusXM as well. 🙂 I think it is great that you and Mom are
going to Bible Studies. ♥ You go Cherie. ♥

Cherie you had me so concerned I call my doctor’s office and they are mailing me the
lab report. GFR is 76.8 and 93.0 there are two. I know my organ is in great shape. ♥
I try to pay close attention because anything can pop up in this world. I am good so far.
Doctor still wants to run new labs to make sure.

I will try to cover Skinn there are many Threads on his products and people seems to like
his products I want to see the PRESENTATIONS and learn. I have not used his products but
I have heard of them. ♥ I use a little bit of everything. I am a skin fanatic I take very good care
of my skin. I hope your mom can catch a show or two.
