Conversation – 15

Good Morning Sheba;

Even with the snow there is yard work. Always yard work. It is like Newman with the mail on Seinfeld. It is like me with the dishwasher.

Today Jerry’s oldest son turns 52. Yes, Jerry was a teenager of nineteen when he was born. And speaking of our sons……

Ari is now officially chipped with us. All the little things and Holidays. Yesterday I went with a friend to Homegoods/Marshall’s. Now I am convinced that cyber shopping is for me. The line was so long. Plus, so much looks like what I need to clean out of my house. I ended with with four Christmas cards and a crazy pair of Betsy Johnson Sunglasses which I will keep in Jerry’s car.

My mystery gift bag from Heidi arrives today. It turned out that the least expensive had items for me. All my earrings Heidi or not are Omega backs which this had along with an M/L bracelet. My size is more medium. As a matter of fact the ones that are more are too large and need adjustments. The ones with clasps are better. Need I tell you I tend to get multiples of certain bracelets. We shall see. I will either send it back or…….presents for others.

Anyway, Chloe and Ari will be friends. If it gets more serious than that❤️🐶❤️ We are going to build them up to where they can be alone together. Starting next week I will have her over most days for different periods of time. I will then leave the house and go for a short walk. Jerry brings them up on his phone. I can do the same on mine.

Exploring Our Readiness

Those in-between times that happen in our lives can be viewed as being rich with possibility for what is coming next.

It could be argued that life is more about the time spent waiting for something to happen than it is about something happening. What this means is that the big events in our lives are preceded by many days and nights of dreaming, planning, organizing, and waiting. The times of waiting in between the big events actually constitute the majority of our lives. These in-between times are anything but uneventful. In fact, they are rich with possibility and filled with opportunities for reflection and preparation. Like a pregnant woman awaiting the birth of her child, we have a finite period of time in which to prepare internally and externally for the upcoming event that will define a new chapter in our lives.

When we find ourselves in an in-between time, we often can’t help but feel impatient for the impending event. We just want to get to the future and have the new baby, the new job, or the new house. And yet, there is a reason a pregnancy takes nine months to fulfill itself. Nature provides the expectant parents with this time so that they can prepare the nest. This preparation plays out on many levels. Materially, a space must be created in the home and resources must be set aside for the baby’s future; psychologically, a shift must occur in which the psyches of both parents agree to be responsible for a new life in the world; and emotionally, the heart must open wider to embrace and fulfill a new love.

Whenever you find yourself in such a time of waiting, you might want to spend time exploring your material, psychological, and emotional readiness. For example, if you are preparing to move to a new city, you could make a list of things you’d like to do in the city you will be leaving behind, and go to your favorite places and spend time with old friends. This way, you will remain fully engaged in the present as you await your future, savoring the in-between time as a vital experience in itself.

Cherie,

Good Morning to you and your family. I love doing the stories for Christmas. I will do
another for them tonight. I hope everyone enjoys them.

I know the kids are looking forward to the Holidays. Have Le Chef decided what you
all will have for the Holidays? I am so glad you liked everything. I hope you have a
wonderful day. 🙂 I am trying to lighten my mood by staying busy and doing things for others.
I am feeling somewhat better in the Sinus area. 🙂

Where is Loaf? I want to play with Loaf. MEOW!

@kittengirl,

Good Morning to you in Cali. I am praying for you and your family. I hope your grandson

@taci,

It was so much fun having you here yesterday. No worries on Heidi Daus there will be
new items and things all the time. I need to give my hubby’s wallet a break. 🙂 I hope
you have a great hike today. ♥

@loaf,

Good Morning Loaf,

I have been very busy this morning we had leaf and lawn debris picked up this morning.
I was making sure every leaf was gone. Hubby had to go to work. I got everything done and
gave away some furniture pieces to a charity that picked it up. 🙂 I am on a roll. ♥
Kiss MIL for me.

OH Sheba …. Thank You … Thank You for All your hard work on posting our Favorite Christmas Story! Cherie and All will read that one … nearly every day of the kids vacation. Great Words and Christmas Model Gallery is Cool. I’m with You Sheba … Cherie doesn’t do any other Social Medias, not that I think their all bad, they’re just Not for me … BUT this Community I have to say has been one of the Best risks I’ve taken. Such a Nice thought of how we do cookies BUT Most times I feel it’s like THIS!! Waving back Sheba♥ … Hey @loaf … Hi ALL!

@kittengirl … I take nearly Everything Andrew makes. I have to say I don’t always feel the difference with everything I take. Cherie can say, I have such a sense of well being, I rarely get sick, I’m Not on any RX’s, and neither is my Mom … Call it good genes, Good attitude, But I suspect taking Andrew has a Lot to do with it…. Just my humble opinion.

@taci … So TRUE about taxes! We kind of “luck” out right now with the “deductions” … TeeHee. 2033 … we shall see … LOL.

@bichon18 …. Cherie wanted to mention how Sweet and Thoughtful of you to submit @KITTENGIRLS challenges to your Synagogue. How nice to have access to someone with expertise in nutrition. Wow, Holland & Belgium …. Mmmm I’ll take All the chocolate you can bring back … LOL.

Cherie’s Kitchen making cookies … LOL

Peace Out Peeps! This story was a lot to do. This my annual Christmas Story Time.
Cherie I hope the kids enjoy it when you have time to read to them. 🙂

Goodnight Bichon18, Taci, Kittengirl, Loaf, Cherie and all who post and read this Thread.
