@Sheba

Hello Sheba, how was your day? And how are your projects coming along?

It was a warm 82 degrees today. Reminded me of a California day, warm and no humidity.
With groceries from both Kroger and Walmart we are stocked. I just need eggs and a few little items they didn’t have.
Cooked some Oxtails today, this time the packages were a bit larger with more inside.
Separated the large ones from the small and cooked them in separate pots. Freezing one large Oxtail per container.

How is your cousin doing? Wishing her a speedy recovery.

Take care Sheba and stay warm.

OMG is all I can say!😲 It was meant to be and sure was not a stress-free game. Had to watch until the last second. PM now has two weeks to, hopefully, heal that ankle. As the saying goes, it’s never over ’til it’s over! Thought of you the whole time having fits.😫

Another dreary day, we will be getting colder and maybe a little snow.🥶❄ Haven’t heard from the family so I am assuming they got back and all is well.

Thanks for the beautiful roses and treats.🥰 That is the perfect table setting. Hope it warms up some in Oz and the ‘burgh. I think the groundhog will see his shadow, especially with all those cameras and lights on him, lol!😂🦔 Blowing kisses your way.😘

The Secret of Surrender

Surrender should be seen as a great strength and comes when we let go of trying to attain the impossible.

Most of us were raised and live in a culture that emphasizes the ideals of independence and control. The general idea is that we are on our own and we don’t need any help from anyone else, and if we are really successful it’s because we are in complete control. However, true lasting success comes only with surrender, which is the opposite of control. We cannot accomplish anything truly great on our own, without any help, and the idea that we can is an illusion that causes most of us a great deal of suffering. Surrender comes when we see that illusion and let go of trying to attain the impossible. Surrender can then be seen as a great strength rather than a weakness.

Even small moments of surrender are powerful indicators of how different our lives could be if we would only let go. We’ve all had the experience of extending huge amounts of effort and energy to reach a particular goal only to realize that we can’t make it happen after all. At the moment of letting go, realizing that we need to ask for help or simply release our agenda entirely, a profound feeling of relief may rush over us. This warm, open sensation is the essence of surrender, and if we didn’t feel that we didn’t really let go. But it is never too late to let go, even of things in the past that didn’t work out the way we wanted them to, because surrender is always an option in every moment of our lives.

When we finally do surrender, our goals actually become possible, because the act of surrender is, in essence, asking for the help we need. This help may come in the form of other human beings or unseen helpers such as angels or inner guides. It may also come in the form of shifting circumstances, the small miracles that we call grace. Amen! 🌹✨✨

@oodiebom,

Good day on the Gulf Coast of Florida. How are you feeling today? I hope things are
going alright at the Hospital for your husband. I pray he starts eating and drinking good
and water again.

I can’t believe the Hospital had the A/C on we are freezing in OZ and Florida still have the
A/C on.

Take your time today and drive very safe. I hope you can bring some of your home treats
to the Hospital for your husband especially the Manuka Honey and Ginger. ✨✨

Please let us know how you both are doing when you have the time. I know you have a lot
going on. One step at a time.

@xango,

Good afternoon in Florida and may this day finds you doing well. OZ is very cold today. ✨✨

I hope Oodiebom gets some results for her husband and he is on the road to recovery.
