@Sheba⚘️🌷🌷⚘️⚘️

Good evening Sheba, I hope you had a good Wednesday. We had another nice and warm day.
I changed all beds today and washed loads of laundry. I also made a starter dough for Ciabatta bread. It’s a new one for me because this has a fermentation period of 48 hours. And hopefully it will turn out good.😋

That’s so sweet, your new nephew is one week old , they are so cute when just born.
My grand nephew is growing more and more. He is a good eater, eats just about everything 😄. He wants to move around all over the place, makes sounds and movement with his face and will be walking in no time.

I couldn’t see the sky last night, it was so cloudy nothing go through. I am hoping to see stars tonight.

Take care Sheba ❤️❤️🌹🌹🌷🌷⚘️⚘️

What a day – we had six schools in the area with active shooter hoaxes. More across the state. No one has said yet where the calls came from. Why, oh why?😫 I read somewhere that there were 130 mass shootings in the United States in 87 days. This MUST stop!🛑

Started taping in the bathroom. I will do this a little at a time each day so I don’t stress out. But it is the easiest room since no furniture needs moved and only doing ceiling and half walls since the lower half is a different color that I’m not re-painting. One day at a time….🙄

Have a lovely evening, stay safe. Hugs to you and Poppy.🤗🙌💖

Decided to stop by and say hello. I am getting ready for a trip to Lowes to check out florring for the bathroom which has to be waterproofed, along with a vanity and linen closet. Hopefully, I will not have to go to the other stores. At the same time will check out the butterfly plant which is similar to the one that HSB is selling and that is the multicolored one. It is $7.95 in a gallon container. If they do not have it in stock I will check out the Astilbe which looks similar to pampas grasss and brings in some birds as well as butterflies. I have one in a container at the Cape and not sure at this point if it survived the three years without my care.

From there I will go on to Costco to check out the food for Passover. I was there just about 10 days ago and the Easter candy was up but nothing for Passover which includes Matzoh and Gefilte fish and of course macaroons. The matzoh I no longer can eat because of the sulfites and the macs are questionable. Need to read the labels. Since Costco is on the way to the Rehab will surprise hubby with a hotdog and soda. By the way I use an emptied water bottle so there are no spills. Also the plastic cover does not always fit the top. He has no idea that I will be making a stop.

Tomorrow is garbage and recycles. Gosh where has this week gone to. I am still working on the taxes and I have two things missing. One should be in the mail and the other came and I need to find which box it went into. We have an accountant up North and he is waiting for the items. I’m hoping I can send everything out by the end of the week.

Well, I will write later if I’m still awake to let you know how I did in shopping. Oh, by the way, I have checked everything on line and wrote the model numbers down so I know what I’m looking at. I will take samples of the flooring to see how it will look in the bathroom and if it clashes with the floor in the hallway.

Take care of yourself and have a great day. Don’t do anything I wouldn’t think of (LOL):

Why We Are Not Shown the Big Picture

Often, we want to be shown the big picture but it is not always in our best interest as we can easily become overwhelmed.

Sometimes, we may find ourselves wishing we knew what our lives are going to look like or what gifts and challenges are going to be presented to us in the coming months or years. We may want to know if the relationship we’re in now will go the distance or if our goals will be realized. Perhaps we feel like we need help making a decision and we want to know which choice will work out best. We may consult psychics, tarot cards, our dreams, and many other sources in the hopes of finding out what the future holds. Usually, at most, we may catch glimpses. And even though we think we would like to know the whole story in all its details, the truth is that we would probably be overwhelmed and exhausted if we knew everything that is going to happen to us.

Just think of your life as you’ve lived it up to this point. If you are like most of us, you have probably done more and faced more than you could have ever imagined. If someone had told you as a child of all the jobs and relationships you would experience, along with each one’s inherent ups and downs, you would have become overwhelmed. With your head full of information about the future, you would have had a very hard time experiencing your life in the present moment, which is where everything actually happens.

In many ways, not knowing what the future has in store brings out in us the qualities we need to grow. For example, it would have been difficult to commit yourself to certain people or projects if you knew they wouldn’t ultimately work out. Yet, it was through your commitment to see them through that you experienced the lessons you needed to grow. Looking back on your life, you would likely be hard pressed to say that anything in your past should not have happened. In fact, your most challenging experiences with their inevitable lessons may have ultimately brought you the greatest rewards. Not knowing the future keeps us just where we need to be—fully committed and in the present moment. AMEN! ✨✨
