My Way
Song by Frank Sinatra

And now the end is here
And so I face that final curtain
My friend I’ll make it clear
I’ll state my case, of which I’m certain
I’ve lived a life that’s full
I traveled each and every highway
And more, much more
I did it, I did it my way
Regrets, I’ve had a few
But then again too few to mention
I did what I had to do
I saw it through without exemption
I planned each charted course
Each careful step along the byway
And more, much, much more
I did it, I did it my way
Yes, there were times I’m sure you knew
When I bit off more than I could chew
But through it all, when there was doubt
I ate it up and spit it out
I faced it all and I stood tall and did it my way
For what is a man, what has he got?
If not himself then he has naught
Not to say the things that he truly feels
And not the words of someone who kneels
Let the record shows I took all the blows and did it my way

It Was a Very Good Year
Frank Sinatra

When I was 17, it was a very good year
It was a very good year for small town girls
And soft summer nights
We’d hide from the lights
On the village green
When I was 17
When I was 21, it was a very good year
It was a very good year for city girls
Who lived up the stairs
With all that perfumed hair
And it came undone
When I was 21
When I was 35, it was a very good year
It was a very good year for blue-blooded girls
Of independent means
We’d ride in limousines
Their chauffeurs would drive
When I was 35
But now the days are short, I’m in the autumn of my years
And now I think of my life as vintage wine
From fine old kegs
From the brim to the dregs
It poured sweet and clear
It was a very good year

At Last
Song by Etta James

At last, my love has come along
My lonely days are over
And life is like a song
Ooh yeah, yeah
At last, the skies above are blue
My heart was wrapped up in clover
The night I looked at you
I found a dream, that I could speak to
A dream that I can call my own
I found a thrill to rest my cheek to
A thrill that I have never known
Ohh yeah yeah
You smile
You smile
Oh and then the spell was cast
And here we are in heaven
For you are mine
At last

Music from my parents. 💕😘Miss you Daddy love you Mom. 💕😘🌹

Chances Are
Johnny Mathis

Chances are, ’cause I wear a silly grin the moment you come into view
Chances are, you think that I’m in love with you
Just because my composure sort of slips the moment that your lips meet mine
Chances are you think my heart’s your Valentine
In the magic of moonlight
When I sigh, “Hold me close, dear”
Chances are you believe the stars that fill the skies are in my eyes
Guess you feel you’ll always be the one and only one for me
And if you think you could
Well, chances are your chances are awfully good
Chances are you believe the stars that fill the skies are in my eyes
Guess you feel you’ll always be the one and only one for me
And if you think you could
Well, chances are your chances are awfully good
The chances are, your chances are awfully good

Peace Out Peeps enjoy this beautiful Winter’s Evening and stay warm. 💕🌹😎

@oodiebom

Good Evening to you. I am glad your health is getting better and you were able to visit your husband. I sounds like your hubby is making progress, getting the physical therapy he needs.
Becoming stronger and being able to stand and walk some that’s great.

It’s good that your husband has another person in the room with him, that way he is not alone and have a person to talk with.
My hubby too looked better after he had a shave and a hair cut after coming home from the hospital.
That pizza sounds good, I am sure his taste buds will enjoy.

A little gift for you for Valentine’s. I hope you can see it, it cute.

I ordered out for dinner and hubby picked it up on his way home from work.

Enjoy the rest of your evening.
Take care Sheba. ❤❤❤❤❤

Happy Valentine’s Day to you and yours!!💖 Hope you had a lovely day. We didn’t go out so I just cooked some steaks for dinner.

A warm, sunny day in the ‘burgh, tomorrow the same.🌞 Another late game so I may only see the first period. That’s a good thing since the way they’ve been playing.☹

Have a warm, cozy evening. Valentine hugs and kisses to you and Poppy.🤗💕🥰

I would like to apologize for being thick headed. You were absolutely right that the rehab is near or on Rte. 64 and 20th. The Rehab Center sign is close enough to the street to be seen just prior to the two entrances. The outside is pretty run down which shocked me after viewing the video and getting some additional info from the Case Managers at the hospital. The interior could use a face lift as well and maybe some new paint on the walls. I was disheartened, yet, I must admit that hubby is getting rehab twice or more per day including the weekends. He was able to get out of the wheelchair and stand a couple of times while his friend and I were there. The only thing I didn’t like was that he had a catheter because he was having problems that way which I now wonder if the virus he had also attacked the kidneys. I know I had some problems also. Spoke to the head nurse on the floor and she noticed that he was able to get out of bed on his own today for the first time since he arrived a week ago. So we are making progress. I also mentioned that I brought some sneakers and clothing and where to locate them. I also saw that hubby was wearing a sweatshirt, so will bring a couple with me tomorrow.
Noticed also that he had no toothbrush and I did bring one along with floss and a brush for in between the teeth and his posts. I already packed a couple of small tubes of toothpaste. There was no washstand or bathroom. I surmise they have to go outside of the room to do most things. I expected more from the rehab. Though I was able to watch several videos the place still needed an uplift. The plus is that he is only 15 minutes from home and maybe more minutes with traffic. His beard is gone and his hair has been cut. He looked fantastic. The other side of the coin is that he is getting the much needed therapy two or more times per da y that includes the weekends. He is sharing the room with another gentleman. Not sure if he gets visitors. Tomorrow I will be ordering a pizza and hope they can deliver it. Again, thanks for being here for me. At least you knew where I was going.

Happy Valentine’s Day to you, hubby and your family. Hope you have a great day and many more where this came from.

Just getting over a sinus migraine. Will not be going to the rehab today, but will tomorrow. Hubby wants a pizza and I just have to see if one can be delivered to the rehab. If I do it myself, it will be cold by the time I get there. Though the drive is no more than 15 minutes from home, the traffic makes it longer. The pizza I rodered was chicken cordon bleu and it was delicious. Well, it still is. I just wish I could get my energy back. This is not at all like me. I usually can bounce back in no time. Thank goodness for Andrew’s Energy & Metabolism vitamins. It helps with the thyroid.

I just spoke to the nurse on the floor at the rehab. Hubby is using a catheter and I wanted to know why. Seems he couldn’t go and now I wonder if the virus he had attacked the kidney. The nurse said they are monitoring him very carefully. Today she noticed he was able to get out of bed on his own and to walk a bit. I noticed last night that he was able to stand without a problem. He did that twice while I was with him. His memory was awesome and he did his Nixon imitation while his friend was there. I hope he will be home in time to celebrate our anniversary next month. If not, so we will celebrate later. No big deal. As long as he is healthy that is all that matters.

Happy Valentine’s Day to you and yours. It’s not the gifts that count, but being together on this day as well as the others that are important. On one hand I enjoy this day, on the other, dread looking at the prices that supposedly makes this day special. For me, everyday is Valentine’s Day. Everyday is a celebration to life. .

@iamashortdiva,

Happy Valentine’s Day I hope you see this post. Enjoy your day in NC. 😘😎🌹

Letting People Know You Love Them

Love exists to be expressed, not withheld.

It’s easy to take our feelings for granted and to assume that the people we care about know how we feel about them. But while those we love are often quite cognizant of our feelings, saying “I love you” is a gift we should give to our loved ones whenever we can. Letting people know you love them is an important part of nurturing any kind of loving relationship. Few people tire of being told they are loved, and saying “I love you” can make a world of difference in someone’s life, take a relationship to a new level, or reaffirm and strengthen a steady bond. Everyone needs to hear the words “I love you.” Three simple words – I – Love – You. When you declare your love for someone you admit to them that you care for them in the most significant way.

It can be difficult to express your love using words, particularly if you grew up around people that never expressed their affection verbally. But you should never be afraid to say “I love you” or worry that doing so will thrust you into a position of excessive vulnerability. It is important to share your feelings with those that matter to you. Part of the fulfillment that comes with loving someone is telling them that you love them. Besides, love exists to be expressed, not withheld.

If you love someone, let them know. Don’t be afraid of the strength of your emotions or worry that your loved one won’t feel the same way. Besides, the words “I love you” are often best said to another without expectation of a return investment. As each one of us is filled with an abundance of love, there is never any worry that you’ll run out of love if your expression of love isn’t said back to you. Saying “I love you” is a gift of the heart sent directly via words to the heart of a recipient. Even though it may not always look that way, love from the heart is an offering that is always unconditional and given without strings attached. That is the true essence of the gift of “I love you.” AMEN! 😘💕🌹
