Hi Sheba;

Love my flowers. Thank you. I hope you are warm, safe and well with Cool Hand Luke and Poppy
I thought of you during the Super Bowl. Is Tom Brady the most envied man in America? What a talent!

As for our shots. I felt little or nothing but slight soreness on my arm on Sunday. BUT MONDAY; I felt like a Zombie with fatigue. I walked the doggies at noon, came in and climbed into bed. My temperature was slightly elevated. Stayed in bed from noon to Tuesday morning. Jerry did not have a reaction except a sore arm. Will I be footloose and fancy free now that i have had my vaccine? Heck no. I have my Patricia Nash mask collection, disposable masks, copper fabric masks, shields and a couple of N95s. I have two shields.

The vaccine protects somewhat. I also feel compelled to protect others. We all need to protect ourselves and others.

Used my Instant Pot last night. First time I have used it Not a bad item but another gadget. Do you have one?

Ari and Chloe are getting ready to Zoom with Poppy

Love you

amy

Good afternoon Sheba. Here we go again, more snow starting late afternoon.❄🌨 With the snow we have on the ground, I always wipe Jake’s paws because they are so big and chunks of snow get between the pads. He knows when he comes in to stop and let me do them. Of course, he gets a treat after. He’s definitely not dumb, I think that’s why he wants to go out more often in the snow and cold.🤣

Did one of my least favorite jobs today, hemmed two pair of sweatpants for my husband.😝 I told him that’s my limit for the next six months. Anything nicer than sweatpants goes to the tailor. Also made some chicken salad for dinner.

Husband’s test was good and he is feeling good. Doc said still traces of covid pneumonia but it should go away with time. Told him to keep doing what he’s doing and she will order another test in about a month. Every day makes me happy seeing him do all his normal things – especially clearing snow!!!💗😅

Honoring Everyday Life

Use the good china everyday, as today is all that matters.

We all know someone who keeps plastic covers on his or her couch in order to protect it. The irony is that many of these people may live their lives without ever having actually made contact with their own furniture! This is a poignant and somewhat humorous example of the human tendency to try to save things for special occasions, as if everyday life weren’t special enough to warrant the use of nice things. Many of us have had the experience of never wearing a particular piece of clothing in order to keep it nice, only to have it go out of style in the meanwhile.

It’s interesting to think of what it would mean to us if we let ourselves wear our nicest clothes and eat off the good china on a daily basis. We might be sending ourselves the message that every day we are alive is a special day and a cause for celebration, and that we are worth it. There is something uplifting about treating ourselves to the finest of what we have. It is as if we rise to the occasion when we wear our best clothes and set the table beautifully, as if for a very special guest. We are more mindful of where we place things, what we are eating, and who is with us. Using the good china, eating in the dining room, and taking the plastic off the sofa might be an invitation to be more conscious of the beauty and grace inherent in our everyday lives.

If there are things you’ve stashed away for a special occasion — a bottle of special wine, a gorgeous pair of shoes, an antique lace tablecloth — consider taking them out of their hiding places and putting them to use tonight, just because you are alive now to enjoy them, and that’s a great cause for a celebration.

@defg,

Happy Hump Day to you too. 😎

@shoelady60,

Good afternoon in the burgh’😘💕😎I am snapping out of it. I hope 2021 gets a lot
better than this. It’s all in God’s hands. 😘💕

How did your husband appt. go with his doctor? Hoping all went well. 😎

I love hearing about your mother she is so funny. I do hope both of you and your
sister get to Hawaii. 😎💕😘 We are frozen here in OZ so what is new? I let Poppy
just run and have fun in the backyard. I brought my baby in after a while. No salt back there.
I have to wipe his paws out if he goes in the front yards.

I am doing so much better today. 😎

@71flowerchild,

Be well dear friend in Texas. Missing the fur babies too. 💕

@taci,

Good Morning in S. California. 😎I know you are busy with your mother’s Estate.
It can be daunting trying to make sure everything is right.

Taci I will find out who the greater is as you mention is yesterday’s post. I had a good
dream about my beloved dad. I feel better today because of it. Yes my friend had
a son her only child. Tess lost her mother and sister just a few years ago and I was
at both services. I think because of Covid-19 I don’t know how they are going to do her
service. So sad. My dad came to me and I am calmer. 😎😘 Taci I posted more Arm Candy. 😘

If you can get out and clear your head enjoy the view. 😘

I hope you see this on your trails. 💕😘

Good early afternoon! I loved seeing all the jade, especially all the purple shades of jade.
We are expecting snow here tonight and into Thursday.☹ Do Not Want..🙁
So sorry you lost another friend. Life can be so hard at times. It just doesn’t seem fair.😢
I hope you have a great day, no matter the weather or the daily fight we all go thru to keep kicking!
Happy Hump Day to all reading this!!🎇✨🎆🎊🎉

@oodiebom,

Good Afternoon in Florida. 😘😎🌹Take your time today if you don’t feel like going
out don’t do it. How ever if you need fresh fruit and veggies well off you go. 🤣

I hope Florida is beautiful today I am getting caught up with my reading. I have a lot
on my mind and I just need to set if free for a moment. I dreamed of my dad last night.

I know he is alright. 😎😘 I am wearing my Uggs Boots I went outside and played with
Poppy playmates on the other side of the fence. Those fur babies looked cold. I always
play with the rain or shine. 😎Did you find the beach bedding for your MB? Macy’s is having
a good sale.

@defg,

Good day in Maryland. 😘😎Your dinner for the Birthday sounds delish. 😘
May this day be a safe and good day for you and hubby. 🌹 We are frozen here in
