Dreams Of The Everyday Housewife
Song by Glen Campbell

She looks in the mirror and stares at the wrinkles
That weren’t there yesterday
And thinks of the young man that she almost married
What would he think if he saw her this way?
She picks up her apron in little girl-fashion
As something comes into her mind
Slowly starts dancing remembering her girlhood
And all of the boys she had waiting in line
Oh, such are the dreams of the everyday housewife
You see everywhere any time of the day
An everyday housewife who gave up the good life for me
The photograph album she takes from the closet
And slowly turns the page
And carefully picks up the crumbling flower
The first one he gave her now withered with age
She closes her eyes and
Touches the house dress that suddenly disappears
And just for the moment she’s wearing the gown
That broke all their minds back so many years
Oh, such are the dreams of the everyday housewife
You see everywhere any time of the day
An everyday housewife who gave up the good life for me
Oh, such are the dreams of the everyday housewife
You see everywhere any time of the day
An everyday housewife who gave up the good life for me
Oh, such are the dreams of the everyday housewife
You see everywhere any time of the day

Love Boat Theme
Song by Jack Jones

Love boat
Love, exciting and new
Come aboard. we’re expecting you.
Love, life’s sweetest reward.
Let it flow, it floats back to you.
The love boat soon will be making another run
The love boat promises something for everyone
Set a course for adventure,
Your mind on a new romance.
Love won’t hurt anymore
It’s an open smile on a friendly shore.
The love boat soon will be making another run
The love boat promises something for everyone
Set a course for adventure,
Your mind on a new romance. (1st time end)
Love won’t hurt anymore
It’s an open smile on a friendly shore.
It’s love! it’s love! it’s love!
It’s the love boat-ah! it’s the love boat-ah!

We Are Family
Song by Sister Sledge

We are family
I got all my sisters with me
We are family
Get up everybody and sing
We are family
I got all my sisters with me
We are family
Get up everybody and sing
Everyone can see we’re together
As we walk on by
(And) and we fly just like birds of a feather
I won’t tell no lie
all of the people around us they say
Can they be that close
Just let me state for the record
We’re giving love in a family dose
We are family (hey, y’all)
I got all my sisters with me
We are family
Get up everybody and sing (sing it to me)
We are family
I got all my sisters with me
We are family
Get up everybody and sing
Living life is fun and we’ve just begun
To get our share of this world’s delights
(High) high hopes we have for the future
And our goal’s in sight
no, we don’t get depressed
Here’s what we call our golden rule
Have faith in you and the things you do
You won’t go wrong, oh no
This is our family jewel
We are family (hey, sing it to me)
I got all my sisters with me
We are family (oh, I can hear you now)
Get up everybody and sing
We are family
I got all my sisters with me
We are family (get up, get up y’all)
Get up everybody and sing
We are family (I got my sisters with me)
I got all my sisters with me
We are family
Get up everybody and sing (get up and sing it to me)
We are family

Club Sheba ✨✨

@sheba2011

Well, look who the Chiefs are playing next Sunday.🏈 As I said before, I am with you all the way. I hope it goes the same as the game a few weeks ago.

Very cold here today, wind chill in the single digits.🥶 Did some cleaning and baking today, made the favorite brownies which, unfortunately, may be gone by tomorrow!😲 Zero willpower with those but I don’t make them often.

You, hubby and Poppy stay warm by the fire this evening.🔥 Will probably check out the college football final tonight. I know who your kids will be rooting for!!🤭✨

@Sheba
Good Afternoon Sheba, I hope you are staying warm and the weather isn’t to cold. We are in the high seventies.
Made a big pot of soup yesterday, place about half in the freezer and small containers so I can do one or two servings when I feel having soup.
As I write this, thunder outside my window to my surprise. I hope it rains and not just makes noise and blows over.
Well it didn’t take long, I got my wish. Its raining and providing everything with a good drink of water.
Take care Sheba.

Life Packaging

We’re spiritual beings living in a human body, even though our packaging seems different, we’re very much the same.

We have all had the experience of encountering someone whose life seems so completely different from ours that we can almost imagine we have nothing in common. However, if we go deeper into observing, we will see that we all have the same things going on in our lives. It is as if our different lives are in essence the same gift, wrapped in an infinite variety of containers, wrapping paper, ribbons, and bows. Everybody experiences loss, grief, happiness, excitement, anger, and fear. Everyone can have money issues of one kind or another, and everyone struggles with difficult choices.

Our lives show up differently for each one of us because we each learn in different ways. One person may need to learn the value of money by having too little of it, while another may need to learn by having more than enough. We each learn about work and love, with experiences that are tailored to our particular perspective. Even as it appears that some people have it easy while others are in a continual state of struggle, the truth is that we are all learning, and it is very difficult to tell, when looking only at the exterior of a person, what’s going on inside.

This is one of the many things that can be so valuable about cultivating relationships with people from all walks of life. As we get to know those who seem so different from us, we get to really see how much of life’s challenges and joys are universal. We begin to look beyond the packaging of skin color, clothing preferences, and socioeconomic differences, hairstyles, and the cars we drive to the heart of the human experience. It is important to honor and value the differences in our packaging, but it is just as important to honor the gift of life inside each one of us, and the fact that, no matter how different the packaging, the gift inside is the same. ✨✨
