Hi Kittengirl;

My friend is in pain, lonely, depressed and a whole bunch of things. She was always a go getter, someone who arranged and did. This should not have happened. The medicine was one relating to her stTe of being at a pivotal point in her life. I sat on her balcony overlooking the golf course and this lake and it broke my heart. She is in 55 and over community with 5,000 condos which has tons of activity and a great location close to the turnpike and a ten-minute drive to the ocean. She would have had a great time. My heart is broken for her.

Now, gather yourself. Heidi is coming. Today, we head over to get our global entry privileges, my tote bag leaves the closet shelf and the check list begins.

Enjoy the good things;

Amy

Lyrics; the poetry of our time. I love this song. Whenever I watch Tootsie; this song stays with me and resonates.

Sheba, thank you for posting it.

Yes Sheba … any kind of illness is a tragedy, Wishing anyone (and there are soo many) with illness a speedy recovery. Sounds like you’re hunkering down for this in coming storm. The reason I posted citrus is, on our way home from the Indio Date Festival, we stopped by a landmark place called “Shields Date Garden”. We bought fresh honey, grapefruit, lemons, tangerines, and of course we got some date shakes …. Yum! Cherie has always wondered what it would be like to “attend” Mass on T.V.. I would LOVE to know what you’re hubby has Mastered using the Ming Air Fryer. So Darling Sheba, RBC’s are a “little” low. Cherie is just curious … what was you’re GFR level ( it would show up on you’re BMP (Basic Metabolic Profile) test). If it is above 60 … You probably just need to increase your vitamin C … Easy fix…. Just my Humble opinion. Kisses back at ya Sheba♥ Darling …. Take Care All!

@kittengirl … Love Joel, he is so inspirational. Yes, I Love Aria’s. That place called “Shields” reminded me of you and your citrus trees, sounds like they made it through the frost. Glad to read you’re holding you own, get some rest and God Bless you on your tests.

@bichon18,

Yes like can be funny. I am in a little pain but I did do a long walk with Poppy.
I have something to tell you two large dogs in a fenced yard wanted to fight Poppy
I almost went over the fence and knock them out. I said a few choice words that were
not going to hurt my dog. I picked Poppy up and kept walking. The nerve of those bullies
ah they don’t want to mess with Mama Bear I would hurt them very badly had they try to
attack me or my dog. 🙂 It was a great walk other then that and the Sun was out. Now comes
the weather. Shizzle!

@kittengirl,

You had a very hectic week. A lot went on in the Community too. I have things going on
in my life but nothing that I am upset about. I hope you take it easy.

Follow your doctor’s orders. I would go get some oranges and make some delish
Orange Juice and just rest.

How is your grandson? I am very concerned about Faire and her husband. Prayers are
being said for them. ♥ Kiss the Kitties. ♥

Good Night Peeps! Enjoy your evening I have two fireplaces on and I will need them.
Stay very safe and very warm. 🙂

It Might Be You
Stephen Bishop

Time, I’ve been passing time
Watching trains go by.
All of my life,
Lying on the sand watching seabirds fly.
Wishing there would be
Someone waiting home for me.
Something’s telling me it might be you
It’s telling me it might be you
All of my life…
Looking back as lovers go walking past
All of my life,
Wondering how they met and what makes it last.
If I found the place,
Would I recognize the face?
Something’s telling me it might be you.
Yeah, it’s telling me it might be you.
So many quiet walks to take
So many dreams to wake
And we’ve so much love to make
I think we’re gonna need some time
Maybe all we need is time
And it’s telling me it might be you
All of my life
I’ve been saving love songs and lullabies
And there’s so much more
No one’s ever heard before
Something’s telling me it might be you
Yeah, it’s telling me it must be you
And I’m feeling it’ll just be you
All of my life
It’s you
It’s you
I’ve been waiting for all of my life
I’ve been waiting for all of my life
I’ve been waiting for all of my life
I’ve been waiting for all of my life

Killer Queen
Queen

She keeps her Moet et Chandon
In her pretty cabinet
“Let them eat cake”, she says
Just like Marie Antoinette
A built-in remedy
For Kruschev and Kennedy
At anytime an invitation
You can’t decline
Caviar and cigarettes
Well versed in etiquette
Extraordinarily nice
She’s a Killer Queen
Gunpowder, gelatin
Dynamite with a laser beam
Guaranteed to blow your mind
Anytime
Recommended at the price
Insatiable an appetite
Wanna try?
To avoid complications
She never kept the same address
In conversation
She spoke just like a baroness
Met a man from China
Went down to Geisha Minah
Then again incidentally
If you’re that way inclined
Perfume came naturally from Paris (naturally)
For cars she couldn’t care less
Fastidious and precise
She’s a Killer Queen
Gunpowder, gelatin
Dynamite with a laser beam
Guaranteed to blow your mind
Anytime
Drop of a hat she’s as willing as
Playful as a cat
Then momentarily out of action
Temporarily out of gas
To absolutely drive you wild, wild
She’s all out to get you
She’s a Killer Queen
Gunpowder, gelatin
Dynamite with a laser beam
Guaranteed to blow your mind
Anytime

Insatiable an appetite
Wanna try?
You wanna try

Crazy Little Thing Called Love
Queen

This thing called love, I just can’t handle it
This thing called love, I must get round to it
I ain’t ready
Crazy little thing called love
This thing (this thing)
Called love (called love)
It cries (like a baby)
In a cradle all night
It swings (woo woo)
It jives (woo woo)
It shakes all over like a jelly fish
I kinda like it
Crazy little thing called love
There goes my baby
She knows how to rock ‘n’ roll
She drives me crazy
She gives me hot and cold fever
Then she leaves me in a cool cool sweat
I gotta be cool, relax, get hip
And get on my track’s
Take a back seat, hitch-hike
And take a long ride on my motorbike
Until I’m ready
Crazy little thing called love
I gotta be cool, relax, get hip
And get on my track’s
Take a back seat (ah hum), hitch-hike (ah hum)
And take a long ride on my motorbike
Until I’m ready (ready Freddie)
Crazy little thing called love
This thing called love, I just can’t handle it
This thing called love, I must get round to it
I ain’t ready
Ooh ooh ooh ooh
Crazy little thing called love
Crazy little thing called love, yeah, yeah
Crazy little thing called love, yeah, yeah
Crazy little thing called love, yeah, yeah
Crazy little thing called love, yeah, yeah
Crazy little thing called love, yeah, yeah

“We Are The Champions”

I’ve paid my dues
Time after time.
I’ve done my sentence
But committed no crime.

And bad mistakes‒
I’ve made a few.
I’ve had my share of sand kicked in my face
But I’ve come through.

And I need to go on and on, and on, and on.

We are the champions, my friends.
And we’ll keep on fighting ’til the end.
We are the champions.
We are the champions.
No time for losers
‘Cause we are the champions of the world.

I’ve taken my bows,
And my curtain calls.
You brought me fame and fortune, and everything that goes with it.
I thank you all.

But it’s been no bed of roses,
No pleasure cruise.
I consider it a challenge before the whole human race,
And I ain’t gonna lose.

And I need just go on and on, and on, and on.

We are the champions, my friends.
And we’ll keep on fighting ’til the end.
We are the champions.
We are the champions.
No time for losers
‘Cause we are the champions of the world.

We are the champions, my friends,
And we’ll keep on fighting ’til the end.
We are the champions.
We are the champions.
No time for losers
‘Cause we are the champions.

Bohemian Rhapsody
Queen

Is this the real life?
Is this just fantasy?
Caught in a landslide
No escape from reality
Open your eyes
Look up to the skies and see
I’m just a poor boy, I need no sympathy
Because I’m easy come, easy go
A little high, little low
Anyway the wind blows, doesn’t really matter to me, to me
Mama, just killed a man
Put a gun against his head
Pulled my trigger, now he’s dead
Mama, life had just begun
But now I’ve gone and thrown it all away
Mama, oh oh
Didn’t mean to make you cry
If I’m not back again this time tomorrow
Carry on, carry on, as if nothing really matters
Too late, my time has come
Sends shivers down my spine
Body’s aching all the time
Goodbye everybody I’ve got to go
Gotta leave you all behind and face the truth
Mama, oh oh (anyway the wind blows)
I don’t want to die
Sometimes wish I’d never been born at all
I see a little silhouetto of a man
Scaramouch, Scaramouch will you do the Fandango
Thunderbolt and lightning very very frightening me
Gallileo, Gallileo, Gallileo, Gallileo, Gallileo, figaro, magnifico
I’m just a poor boy and nobody loves me
He’s just a poor boy from a poor family
Spare him his life from this monstrosity
Easy come easy go will you let me go
Bismillah, no we will not let you go, let him go
Bismillah, we will not let you go, let him go
Bismillah, we will not let you go, let me go
(Will not let you go) let me go (never, never let you go) let me go (never let me go)
Oh oh no, no, no, no, no, no, no
Oh mama mia, mama mia, mama mia let me go
Beelzebub has a devil put aside for me for me for me
So you think you can stop me and spit in my eye
So you think you can love me and leave me to die
Oh baby can’t do this to me baby
Just gotta get out just gotta get right outta here
Oh oh oh yeah, oh oh yeah
Nothing really matters
Anyone can see
Nothing really matters
Nothing really matters to me
Anyway the wind blows

Welcome to Club Sheba ♥

That time of the evening when things are winding down getting ready for a bone cold
night.

Amy and Taci you were right about Bohemian Rhapsody I did get a chance to see the
Movie and it lived up to the legend. Freddie Mercury was before his time and mine.
I heard his music from my parents and when I first heard it I swore I never heard anything
like this. ♥ What would have been like to attend a Queen Concert with Freddie? Loaf you
were right this was a great Movie.

What a Movie ♥ I have also seen other films about his life and his talent. ♥ If this is not
your thing see ya. If you like Queen then relax and turn the music up in your Ipods. 🙂

Hi again Sheba and Ladies!

Sheba, saw your post about Luke Perry! How awful! Did they say what the cause of his stroke was? I know for me, I won’t get a massage or have the massage put on the chair when getting a pedicure because Kevin Sorbo had his stroke after going in for a massage. I don’t take chances with my heart. Surgery is looking better all the time.

@loaf,
I am so sorry to read of your MIL’s passing. I am sure you miss her greatly. She lived a full long life and got to know her great-grandchildren! That is amazing! I hope your family is doing ok and that you are feeling peace. Please don’t take what I said as dismissive, it is just how I feel about my MIL. She is going to be 90 in a couple of weeks and I am always dreading that day that will come. She has longevity in her genes so I am hoping for another decade with her even though she says she is more than ready because she misses my FIL and BIL. We keep telling her that her great grandchildren are blessed to have their great grandma! How are all the kids and grand kids doing?
I read you like your new haul and you bought G’s jacket for your daughter. I bought Iman’s leather jacket in burgundy for my daughter. I am saving it for her birthday. She is going to love it! 😀
I love hearing how Bella got her name! I am glad she has a new home and is well loved (as all fur-babies should be). 😀
Hugs and prayers to you and your family.

@Cherie,
I am sorry for worrying you. Every time I sat down to post i just was too exhausted. I am sad to read Deek is shutting down her thread. I hope she and the girls will stop over here and let us know how they are doing.
Glad to hear you have been out having fun with your family. Glad to hear you got your new car! Have you listened to that aria yet (the one from the magic flute)?

@bichon,
I am sorry about your friend with the Tardive Dyskinesia. That must be very difficult for her. I have heard of it before and seen people suffering from it. I have heard sometimes it can get better with proper treatment however it does not go away. I hope she sees an improvement.
Don’t you just love Sheba’s biker doggie picture? Can’t you just see the little man out with Jerry for a Sunday ride? Lol! I read you can’t look at a cat and not think of me. That is so sweet! I now think of you whenever I see a Bichon doggie or have a mango smoothie (which is all the time)! 😀

@taci,
Don’t you just love Sheba’s airplane flying over the coffee cup clouds? I hope all is well and the hikes are going well. How is your son doing? healing fine? I read where you said it was quiet around here without me! LOL! That’s so funny! I can be very chatty! I used to be very shy and so forced myself to act like I wasn’t and start up conversations with people! Now you can’t shut me up! Lol! Funny thing is that my sister did the same thing! I remember talking with her a few years ago and I said that I wish I was more fearless like her. She about fell over and shared that she forces herself to pretend she is not shy! I never knew! Lol! 😀

Shout outs to Southernlights, Velvet, Deek, pookie, Bassetbabe, mightymouse! Hope all are well! 😀

Hi Sheba! Hi ladies!

It has been a long weird week. Dr appointments, dentist appointment, stitches removed, heart test, mammogram… lost part of my filling so saw dentist and set up appointment for filling on Tuesday but now I may have lost part of my tooth (it could be part of the same filling too) so I’m not sure now if I will be getting a filling or crown. Living on soup right now. Got my stitches removed Monday. The week before I had a weird thing removed from my arm and it went deep. It wouldn’t stop bleeding so Dr had to put in stitches. I guess I am a bleeder. i do not want to be on blood thinners. I take 325 mg aspirin as my blood thinner and after the surgery I probably won’t have to take it. Anyway, I digress… After the dentist, I fell, or rather caught myself from falling when pinned between the car and a tree. I was virtually hanging like a monkey! I am still sore from that and it didn’t help me any during my stress echo. I was very sore and she started me out brisk walking uphill. At least I had a female tech so I was happy about that. I have a follow up for results in a few weeks. If any of you have had that, you know how hard they have to press to see a good picture so I am pretty sore still from that and so the mammogram this morning wasn’t a whole lot of fun. At least it is over. I get to relax today. Monday I have another heart test at the specialist cardiologist’s office. I am nervous about that one because they will speed up my heart. I will be hooked up to an EKG and have to lie down in some tube tunnel thing and stay still while the camera takes pics of my heart. I don’t do well with really confined spaces so I am nervous. I will be taking Cuddles’ picture with me because she always helps me. I still have to have my sleep study done. All this going on and stuff with daughter too. Her ex has been making life difficult. Anyway, I have been exhausted. Such is life.

Well, last night I had trouble sleeping so I got caught up on things around here. Sheba, I wish I could send you some Valencia oranges! The tree is drooping full of them! Love it! Almost ready to start picking and enjoying fresh squeezed oj in the morning. The orange and lemon trees are starting to get their flower buds and soon it will smell like heaven here. I have a HUGE climbing Cecile Brunner rose on the side of the house that grows up the side of the house and over an arbor. It blooms the tiniest little soft pink roses at the same time and it is so fragrant. I wish I could bottle it! The arbor marks the “entry” into my “secret garden”. It’s a nice little secluded spot in my yard where i love to sit under the naval orange tree and have morning tea in the spring and fall when mornings are cool but the sun is warm.

Sheba, I saw you mention your mother’s name is Lily. That is a very special name to me. It was my baby niece’s name. Very special name. Her twin brother was Casey. Dear sweet angels. Your mother shares her name with a baby angel! 😀

I am glad you are enjoying your air-fryer! I would like to get one. You asked me if I am enjoying my haul but it has been so long i’m not sure what it was! lol. I think you might have been referring to my peach embroidered CL jacket? I love it! I sent the black one back.

I’m worried about “poofing” so I will continue this below in another post…
