Tonight
Song by Leonard Bernstein

Only you
You’re the only thing I’ll see
Forever
In my eyes
In my words
And in everything I do
Nothing else but you
Ever
And there’s nothing for me but Maria
Every sight that I see is Maria
Tony
Tony
Only you
Every thought I’ll ever know
Everywhere I go you’ll be
All the world is only you and me
Tonight
Tonight
It all began tonight
I saw you and the world went away
Tonight
Tonight
There’s only you tonight
What you are
What you do
What you say
Today
All day I had the feeling a miracle would happen
I know now I was right
For here you are
And what was just a world is a star
Tonight
Tonight
Tonight
The world is full of light
With suns and moons all over the place
Tonight
Tonight
The world is wild and bright going mad shooting sparks into space
Today the world was just an address
A place for me to live in
No better than alright
But here you are
And what was just a world is a star
Tonight

Happy Holidays. ✨✨😎

Hello Sheba, I too was missing family members that are no longer with us here. You are right, it’s the Holidays that makes us miss them even more. But I am sure we both treasure those who are still here with us all. How was your Thanksgiving? Did Poppy get some Turkey?
Ours turned out just right, I made chicken since we don’t like Turkey or Ham.
Today is a quiet day, a little clean up and thinking about the decorations of Autumn to be taken
down. And the ones for Christmas that I want to put up. Not sure how much I want to do, because I am the one to put up and take down.
Some of the Milkweed still have a few Caterpillars, and some are having seed pods opening with seeds. I am saving all of the seeds I can get for next year.
Take care Sheba. 😊

I cannot believe tonight is Trivia. It’s always a time I look forward to whether we have a game or not. Nice group of people. I really am missing Velveteen Rabbit. I sure hope she is OK. Have not seen her post anywhere on the web. At least I see Faire out there from time to time.

Today was Black Friday. Normally, the ads get me into the store on -line. Walmart’s ads used to intrigue me. There was always something I needed like a coffee maker for $10/$15. This year nothing. And that’s the way it was with most of the retail establishment. However, I did purchase the Ninja blender from HSN. I looked at the dual airf ryer, but felt that though the idea was good, the food areas for air frying were too small. Four quarts on each side just didn’t look large enough. I also realize that there is a new 10 qt on sale at Amazon. It’s so new in fact that delivery will take two months. But at 10 qts. not much larger than the 8. So I didn’t purchase. What I did buy was a new router since the one we have has served us over 10 years.
And since my new 10″ Amazon tablet never worked, I ordered a new one. The replacement turned out to be refurbished when it was supposed to be brand new in the box. The box that it came in was not their usual orange/red one rather a corrugated one. The tablet had no covering . It was like in a clear, plastic pouch. Oh yes, the writing on the box stated refurbished. I have a feeling that the Customer Service Reps had no idea this was happening since their computer spouted out brand new. I ended up ordering a new one from their website. Customer Service gave me a coupon to use whenever.

Oops. Just noticed the time. Got to make dinner. Have just about an hour and a half before Trivia. Hope to be on time.

Good afternoon and thanks for the tea, I have been drinking it all day. It is cold and blustery in the ‘burgh, around 33.🥶 Not going anywhere today, staying warm in the house and ordered a couple things online. I don’t have a lot to buy this year. A couple kids off the list, I buy until they turn 18, and I promised mom no surprise gifts, only money.🤑 Gave the nieces their gifts when we went to visit last Sunday. I always get candles for the hairdresser, mail lady, etc., and a large Harry & David or Hickory Farms basket that is delivered to our best friends. So not a lot of running around this year.

Unlike you, I ate a lot yesterday, my body is in carb heaven!🤭 Easy leftovers today for dinner. Have a relaxing evening and stay warm by the fire.🔥 A little something to help.🍷

Balance

A balanced lifestyle is simply a state of being, in which one has time and energy for obligations and pleasures.

Like pieces of a puzzle, the many different aspects of your being come together to form the person that you are. You work and play, rest and expend energy, commune with your body and soul, exalt in joy, and feel sorrow. Balance is the state that you achieve when all of the aspects of your life and self are in harmony. Your life force flows in a state of equilibrium because nothing feels out of sync. While balance is necessary to have a satisfying, energetic, and joyful life, only you can determine what balance means to you.

Achieving balance requires that you assess what is important to you. The many demands of modern life can push us to make choices that can put us off balance and have a detrimental effect on our habits, relationships, health, and career. In creating a balanced lifestyle, you must ascertain how much time and energy you are willing to devote to the different areas of your life. To do so, imagine that your life is a house made up of many rooms. Draw this house, give each part of your life its own room, and size each room according to the amount of importance you assign to that aspect of your life. You can include family, solitude, activities that benefit others, healthy eating, indulgences, exercise and working on self. You may discover that certain elements of your life take up an inordinate amount of time, energy, or effort and leave you with few resources to nurture the other aspects of your life. You may want to spend less time on these activities and the ones that fulfill you.

A balanced lifestyle is simply a state of being in which one has time and energy for obligations and pleasures, as well as time to live well and in a gratifying way. With its many nuances, balance can be a difficult concept to integrate into your life. Living a balanced existence, however, can help you attain a greater sense of happiness, health, and fulfillment. Amen! ✨✨
