Conversation – 18
Hello Peeps time for a new Conversation Thread. This is
number 18 out of the series. I created and started this thread 9 years ago.
I will change it often from now on. This is just a knock around
thread about things in life. My life and others. I am an avid Heidi
Daus Collector, former singer, model and so on. I do this thread because
I enjoy what I do. I love fashion and music and HSN is a little of both.
I cover a lot of music and fashion on this thread. ✨😎
I am going to wish Happy Holidays to all the Peeps out there and please
stay safe.

I met a person who does interior work and he will repair our lanai area and then some. He will also renovate the guest bathroom and the flooring that we used is a no no because it isn’t waterproofed. So, after he left I did some looking online to get an idea of price and found some ideas that I will need to see in person. Everything is at Lowes and the best part, the price is right. Will take a ride either Saturday or Sunday.
I did manage to find some time to visit our Farmer’s Market. I found some wonderful food items for hubby. One was a fruit bowl that was enough for four people. The fruit included strawberries, pineapple, honeydew, blueberries, cantaloupe, red and green grapes. It was awesome to look at. But my allergy to strawberries prohibited me from trying it. I also purchased chicken salad, my favorite. I will probably stuff an orange pepper with the chicken salad and include native tomatoes. I forgot to mention that this market is owned by the Amish and there are no preservatives in their food items. Most of their deli items are homemade. Best part, very little salt, but they do get you on the sugar, so I’m very careful on that one. There was a lady wearing an apron that reminded me of the Dragon Fruit. They were the same colors of pink and green with some yellow thrown in. She was cooking up a storm. Fresh tilapia in a sauce to beat the band. She was handing out samples. I need to get that recipe. I also bought two mini pies (blueberry and Dutch apple). They had fresh salmon on sale and they were not farm fed. Also pinwheel salmon stuffed with sour cream and fresh dill. I absolutely forgot that that is one of my favorite things to do with salmon. I have to admit that this was better than mine. I only wanted to shop for an hour , but ended up being there for t wo. Ran home and put some items in the frig and freezer. Made a care package for hubby and brought an Italian grinder for his roommate. I arrived at the rehab after 6pm and stayed over two hours watching those two enjoy their packages. I was exhausted when I returned home and just woke up.
I will see you in Trivia tonight. It’s early Friday morning. However, not sure if I will be back in time to start it. There are no set rules to leave the rehab. I probably could have slept in the chair and no one would have noticed (LOL). Oh yes, we are having problems getting an Urology appointment. I spoke to the head nurse last week and he had left messages on our first choice with no response. He could not believe that the office may have been closed. But last week some of the kids had a winter break for a week and many parents do make plans . I surmise that many in the health field use that week for a mini awaycation. But yesterday I tried. No answer machine, but the phone kept ringing incessantly. I gave up. This is not what is done in New England. I will leave it to the rehab to find someone.

Good afternoon in Oz. Happy birthday to your niece🎂🎈 and congrats on the new addition to your family.👶 Nice to hear good news.
It must be raining everywhere but Florida. We have rain, you have rain, Taci and my sis have rain. It is hanging around here for the next couple days.
Can’t even imagine you cleaning up tree debris in a winter coat.😮 We have had some windy days and my husband needs to clean up some branches/twigs. Like I said before, next house I want one bush.
Here’s to a relaxing evening and a toast to you for all the hard work.🥂 Hang in there!!!

Hello and wonderful news 😀.. Congratulations to you, your nephew and his wife. A healthy baby boy 👶.
It’s not fun to pick up tree debris in a winter coat and raining. I hope you warmed up and can relax a bit.Happy Birthday to your niece, it’s always nice to celebrate your day. I hope she gets her wish and lots of presents 🎁.
I just finished watering my plants in the front. I couldn’t believe how dry they were. We had that one day of rain, but it rained all day, then the wind started and of course it drys everything.
My nephew’s wife sent a picture of my grand nephew munching on a piece of pear 🍐
Hilarious, she said she scrapes some on a spoon and he loves it. But wants to have a piece in his hands and bites it, he is at 8 months, till he gets tired then just stops.Take care Sheba ❤️❤️🌷🌷🌷

Becoming a Better Person
We understand that we want to be better, but have no clear definition of what better means and that is part of the process.
At some point in our lives, many of us find ourselves overcome with the desire to become better people. While we are all uniquely capable of navigating this world, we may nonetheless feel driven to grow, expand, and change. This innate need for personal expansion can lead us down many paths as we develop within the context of our individual lives. Yet the initial steps that can put us on the road to evolution are not always clear. We understand that we want to be better but have no clear definition of “better.” To ease this often frustrating uncertainty, we can take small steps, keeping our own concept of growth in mind rather than allowing others to direct the course of our journey. And we should accept that change won’t happen overnight—we may not recognize the transformations taking place within us at first.
Becoming a better person in your own eyes is a whole-life project, and thus you should focus your step-by-step efforts on multiple areas of your existence. Since you likely know innately which qualities you consider good, growing as an individual is simply a matter of making an effort to do good whenever possible. Respect should be a key element of your efforts. When you acknowledge that all people are deserving of compassion, consideration, and dignity, you are naturally more apt to treat them in the manner you yourself wish to be treated. You will intuitively become a more active listener, universally helpful, and truthful. Going the extra mile in all you do can also facilitate evolution. Approaching your everyday duties with an upbeat attitude and positive expectations can help you make the world a brighter, more cheerful place. Finally, coming to terms with your values and then abiding by them will enable you to introduce a new degree of integrity and dignity into your life.
As you endeavor to develop yourself further, you can take pride not only in your successes, but also in the fact that you are cultivating consciousness within yourself through your choices, actions, and behaviors. While you may never feel you have reached the pinnacles of awareness you hope to achieve, you can make the most of this creative process of transformation. Becoming a better person is your choice and is a natural progression in your journey of self-awareness. AMEN! ✨😎

Good day in the ‘burgh I know I am late posting. I have had a day.
I see why you are not crazy about a lot of trees. Lady I have been in the yards
picking and putting tree debris together to be picked up soon. The wind was blowing
and it is chilly here in OZ I had a heavy coat on. Can you picture me doing that? Poppy
was at my side. 😎We had a cold snap and I had no idea so much tree debris was in
the back well no more everything is done as far as trees goes.I had some good news out of Colorado a birthday for a niece and a nephew whose wife
gave birth today on the same day. 😘😎✨Wishing you a nice day and I hope you are resting for Mom Friday. 😘😘
