Oh my, I feel like I was in a movie. It was the strangest and most beautiful evening. Sky got darker and the wind kicked up a little – then nothing. Not a drop of rain. It was like something shielded our area and we were in a bubble. All around were storms, tornado warnings, lightning and tennis ball size hail. Around 8:30 I went out on my deck and never saw a sky like this. To the east were many round, cotton ball clouds, small circles and not connected. Above me were the same round balls but connected which made them look like white caterpillars. To the west were blue, white and orange streaks that reminded me of the northern lights. Within minutes it looked like hundreds of lightning bugs among the trees sparkling away. A night I will never forget. Nature at its finest.🙌

Hi in Oz. Another scorcher, 92 and holding.🔥 We are getting severe storms late afternoon and early evening with wind, hail and tornado warnings.⛈🌪 I am positive we will lose power and it will be widespread. I will be shutting down early, just hope it cools down after the storm so we can open some windows with the a/c out. If we happen to luck out, I will check in later. Thanks for the drink, I will need it!!!

Thanks, Mrs. Sheba. Pretty warm here as well & probably will have another thunderstorm tonight. We are getting ready for dental appointments, & then we always eat somewhere nice – maybe in Gambrills today.
Have a great day, HSN peeps!😊🙂☺
@oodiebom – Glad you & hubby seem to be doing well after the Monday you both had.💕💞

Seven Quick Fixes to Feel Better

Anxiety and fear dissipate quickly when countered with conscious breathing.

The signals our bodies use to tell us we need to cleanse ourselves physically, mentally, and emotionally are multifaceted and often mirror symptoms we associate with illness. If we heed these signs, we not only feel better quickly but also stave off poor health before it can start. These quick fixes for common ailments can get you started.

1. Applying pressure to the acupressure point between the thumb and forefinger can release blockages causing pain, tension, and fatigue. You can relieve a headache naturally by squeezing for 20 seconds and releasing for 10 seconds, without letting go, four times.

2. To breathe freely, irrigate your nasal passages with a neti pot and warm salt water. As you clear and soothe the sinuses, congestion associated with allergies or infection will gradually disappear.

3. Apple cider vinegar is a powerful purifying and detoxifying agent. Soaking for 20 minutes in a warm bath infused with two cups of apple cider vinegar pulls toxins from the body and can clear blocked energy.

4. The foods you eat can have a profound impact on your outlook and mood. Eating a small yet satisfying meal rich in complex carbohydrates can lift your spirit and help you let go of feelings of anger, irritability, and depression.

5. Anxiety and fear dissipate quickly when countered with conscious breathing because concentrating on the breath enables you to refocus your attention inward. You can ground yourself and regain your usual calm by taking a series of deep belly breaths as you visualize your feet growing roots that stretch miles down into the earth.

6. Though tuning out can seem counterproductive, a few minutes spent lost in daydreams or listening to soothing music can help you see your circumstances from a new angle when you feel frustrated.

7. If you feel ill health coming on, brew a wellness elixir. Simmer three sliced lemons, one teaspoon freshly grated ginger, one clove freshly minced garlic, and one quarter teaspoon cayenne pepper in five cups water until the lemons are soft and pale. Strain a portion into a mug and add honey by tablespoons until you can tolerate the taste. Drinking this potent mixture of antibacterial, antiviral, and antifungal ingredients three times each day can ensure your symptoms never progress into a full-blown illness. AMEN! ✨✨

@oodiebom,

Good afternoon on the Gulf Coast. ✨😎Oz is warm today and the A/C is on.
I never know when I will lose power one day I was in the middle of typing and the
power went out due to a tree falling on power lines in my area.

I am hoping nothing happens today. How are you and hubby doing?

Keep that A/C on and do as little as possible. Hubby took out the recyclables before
leaving for work and I added more to it. 😜

I did DVR Heidi Daus last night I did put the complete schedule on the Heidi Daus Thread. ✨
There are a lot of deals on Heidi pieces. I do hope you like your new necklace. 😎😘
