I Could Have Danced All Night – My Fair Lady

Bed, bed I couldn’t go to bed
My head’s too light to try to set it down
Sleep, sleep I couldn’t sleep tonight
Not for all the jewels in the crown
I could have danced all night
I could have danced all night
And still have begged for more
I could have spread my wings and done a thousand things
I’ve never done before
I’ll never know what made it so exciting
Why all at once my heart took flight
I only know when he began to dance with me
I could have danced, danced, danced all night
It’s after three now
Don’t you agree now?
She ought to be in bed!
I could have danced all night, I could have danced all night
And still have begged for more
I could have spread my wings and done a thousand things
I’ve never done before
I’ll never know what made it so exciting
Why all at once my heart took flight
I only know when he began to dance with me
I could have danced, danced, danced all night
I understand, dear
It’s all been grand, dear
But now it’s time to sleep
I could have danced all night, I could have danced all night
And still have begged for more
I could have spread my wings and done a thousand things
I’ve never done before
I’ll never know what made it so exciting
Why all at once my heart took flight
I only know when he began to dance with me
I could have danced, danced, danced all night

On the Street Where You Live
Song by John Michael King

When she mentioned how her aunt
Bit off the spoon, she completely done me in
And my heart went on a journey to the moon
When she told about her father and the gin
And I never saw a more enchanting farce
Than the moment when she shouted, “Move your bloomin'”
I have often walked down this street before
But the pavement always stayed beneath my feet before
All at once am I several stories high
Knowing I’m on the street where you live
Are there lilac trees in the heart of town?
Can you hear a lark in any other part of town?
Does enchantment pour out of every door?
No it’s just on the street where you live
And oh the towering feeling
Just to know somehow you are near
The overpowering feeling
That any second you may suddenly appear
People stop and stare, they don’t bother me
For there’s nowhere else on earth that I would rather be
Let the time go by, I won’t care
If I can be here on the street where you live

Club Sheba

@toberkins,

No harm done I am known by many names in the HSN Community all given to me by
Community members. 🤣I am known as shebaDaus, Shebs, Sheeba and Queen Sheba
for having a vast amount of jewelry. 😎

Fun fact my name Sheba is my beloved dog Sheba she passed in 2011 that is how I got
my log on name. I miss my dog more than I can say.

I do think your thread was removed by HSN. The only way anyone can answer is for you
to contact them in Customer Service. 🌹

Sheba2011, Once again I want to apologize to you for using the incorrect spelling (Sheeba2011) in my post four hours ago asking for your help again. You must really think I’m a ditz. Sincere apologies.

@toberkins,

I am sorry watching Heidi Daus. I just looked at your post. I have not seen the thread
since I posted on it yesterday.

I have a feeling HSN may have removed it for some of the links.

I would contact Customer Service and find out from them what you can and cannot
post.

I hope this is helpful. 🌹

“Ive grown accustomed to this place. The ups and downs, the merry go rounds , that makes the day begin.” “I’ve grown accustomed to this place.” Oh well….At first I was in a real hurry to head North. Today, not so much. I can wait to sit in the car for 6-7 hours each day, to stop at rest areas that may not be so clean, to stay at motels/hotels which we aren’t sure of, and then after driving so long, to get back into the car and look for somewhere to eat. I think a three hour+ plane ride may now be in the works on the return and anything I do not want to carry can be sent ahead through UPS.

Today I finally decided to put together a dish drainer rack. It’s a double decker. Cute. I could not find directions for putting it together, so went to the web store and found a video. It wasn’t until I pulled out the drip trays that I found directions. The drip trays are attached to each level.
Now there is no excuse for the water to go everywhere. Plus, it takes up less room giving us more counter space which is surely needed.

Hubby had another nightmare last night. He also was speaking in another language and claimed there were images in the room. Scary for me as well. But, at least, he did not fall out of bed. I wish I had an explanation for this because it is not the first time for the occurrence. He has no memory. The only question he asked was if he was speaking in a foreign language.

Well, it is almost time for Heidi. I have a few things in favorites that I’m watching very closely. Credit card needs to rest, but not sure how long I can hold out. 😂😂😂😂

I need to phone my physician as well since I just had the Covid vaccine and need to make a Mam appointment as well. Looks like if you have to wait at least two months my appointment will have to be in July/August. It will be a nice break for a return trip to spend a week or two. I can live with that. 😍😍😍😍

Hi Sheeba2011, I sure hope you are having a wonderful day. It’s bright & sunny here in California. Seems more like summer is starting already. Well, just as I thought, I have another posting question for you. Is there a reason why I can not find the thread that I setup the other day? I thought I could do a search for it, but it only takes me to the post that I had put in your thread. Thank you.

Denying Your Feelings

Denying your feelings is not only unhealthy for the mind and body — it may also rob you of valuable information you could be learning about yourself.

Dealing with powerful emotions can be challenging, especially when we are going through chaotic, sad, or cruel experiences in our lives. Often, it can seem like we have only two options for dealing with our feelings so they don’t become too overwhelming. We may let our feelings out in an immediate and visceral way, or we may bottle them up by suppressing our emotions inside our bodies. Most people make the second choice, repressing their feelings in an attempt to deny them. The truth is that there are many positive ways to deal with emotions, and experiencing your negative feelings doesn’t have to constitute a negative experience. Denying your feelings is not only unhealthy for the mind and the body, but it may also rob you of valuable information you could be learning about yourself and your life. Suppressing your emotions can even impede your short-term memory. Acknowledging your feelings can help you better understand them and help you recover naturally from change, stress, and grief.

If you find that facing your feelings head on is proving too difficult during times of emotional distress, you may want to explore alternative ways of expressing them. Otherwise, the emotions you deny could morph into unconscious anger or self-hatred. Expressing your thoughts to friends or family can be helpful. If you don’t feel ready to share them, try giving them words by writing down what you are feeling. Give whatever you are feeling simple words like “livid” or “angry” or “excited” You can also funnel your feelings into a creative outlet, physical exercise, or chores. Even just accepting and speaking your feelings out loud to yourself can be a healing release. In releasing intense emotions, it is most beneficial to acknowledge the feelings, allow yourself to feel them, and let the feelings go. Those who are willing to experience and release their feelings without judgment also find that their lives become less stressful. Breathing deeply, going for a long walk, or doing a constructive task can help you respond to your feelings in a healthy way.

While burying negative or uncomfortable feelings can numb the pain, it also may inevitably dull your ability to experience your more positive and pleasurable feelings. You may find yourself afraid to open up in the future for fear of getting hurt. The feelings we deny aren’t limited to anger and sadness. Suppressing our happiness or excitement can be just as unhealthy. In learning how to express your intense emotions in a healthy way, you are giving yourself the freedom to fully experience the more joyful emotions that come with being alive

AMEN! 😎
