No workmen yet. Did hear some hammering and hubby thought someone was working on our roof. It got me to look outside through the kitchen window. No one here. No ladders up either. False alarm. Actually, I am starting to reclean again. Since we may be on the road soon, decided to start the spring cleaning process and to start putting things aside that will go North. Earlier today I was thinking of doing some research on people who transport the vehicle from your location to another one North. But then I realized there are quite a few things that go back and forth. And these are items that I do not want to leave behind. So, it looks like we drive. However, in thinking things through, we could leave a vehicle at the Cape and either rent a car from the airport on Cape and drive to Boston or we can bus it to Boston at the commuter lot. Something to think about when we are North.

Tomorrow is a rain event for us and then some cooler air will approach. From what I’ve been hearing it will be cooler through the end of next week. At least we get them in spurts.

Ok, now for some other news. On Wednesday following the doctor’s appointment we drove to Costco. Hubby took what he thought was a short cut. It was around a curb area in which he steps up and then walks on grass and steps down. I was ahead of him thinking he was right behind. I happened to turn to check and saw him do a misstep and fell. I dropped my purse next to him and tried to pull him up. He was dead weight. A gentleman walked by and with his help, we brought him to his feet. Thankfully, it was a soft landing since the lawn was raised a bit and was looking like a pillow. However, when we arrived home, he wanted to help me unload the car. I didn’t buy much and it was something I could have done. Anyway, his right leg gave way, and if it weren’t for wicker stuff that needed washing he would have landed on a cement floor of our carport. This is what frightens me about the trip home. Thank goodness I have a wheelchair and a walker. But the situation on the drive still frightens me. We have a doctor’s appointment next month and we will discuss this .

Well, I see it’s time for the next question. Time to get back to Trivia. By the way, are you taking any vitamins for your immune system. I think your sinuses may be the culprit. Hate the thought that you have another cold. Try also a teaspoon of Manuka. It may hit the spot.

Have some Wine with your cheese. ✨

Hi Sheba, chilly with snow flurries in the ‘burgh. Cleaned some floors this morning and taking it easy this afternoon. Not much planned for this weekend except for visiting mom and sis tomorrow and the playoff games.🏈 Feel free to message me during your game if it gets tense and your brain is razzled!🧠

Getting our nails done on Tuesday and lunch probably at Olive Garden🍝 since it is close. I think mom wants to also go to DSW to look for shoes.🥿👟

Stay warm, blowing kisses in the wind to you and Poppy.🥰

Leaving the Earth a Better Place

It is a great act of love to leave the earth a better place when we leave, than which we found her.

We inherit this great planet from our parents and from the generations that came before. Then, in concert with the surrounding culture, our elders teach us how to care for the land and the sea, ourselves and each other. They model ways of being in relationship with every other expression of life on earth. But whether they act with care or carelessness, compassion or cruelty, generosity or greed, we have the ability to choose our own individual way of relating with the planet and her inhabitants. From our first breath here to our very last, we will find infinite opportunities to influence our environment for the better. We can decide now to act with intention in order to leave this amazing planet brighter and more beautiful than when we arrived.

If we enjoy environmental activism, we might feel moved to clean up beaches or to plant trees. But, we need not feel limited in our ability to contribute positively. There are many ways to leave a legacy of love. We might begin by radiating affirmative thoughts and feelings about how magnificent the earth truly is. We might create and tend a special garden, one that provides an abundance of food and herbs for ourselves and our loved ones. Or we might create a garden filled with sweet smelling flowers to uplift our hearts. We might even honor the earth simply by trying to be the best person we can be while we are here. Such good will can have a domino effect, inspiring others to contribute in their own way as well.

We spend our lifetimes being nourished and enlivened by the rain, sun, soil and wind. Our experience is blessed by other living beings, from plants to insects to birds and humans. We receive so much; giving back just naturally feels good. When we live our lives with intention of leaving this temporary home a better place for generations to come, we are perhaps leaving behind the best gift of all. AMEN! ✨✨💕

Cheese Lovers Day. ✨💕This is how we do it. ✨😎

@kittengirl,

Good morning in California just sending you a Friday Shout Out. Kitten take care. ✨✨

Well it’s National Cheese Lovers Day. 💕😎

@shoelady60,

How are things in the ‘burgh? Good luck with your Hockey Team tonight. ✨💕😎

Did you get your manicure with your sis and mom? I got my eyebrows threaded
I love the look. 💕😎I just add a little brow makeup and the eyes really pop.

I plan on getting a manicure and pedicure maybe this weekend. This year I am going to
do me. 😎 Lady after my fight with cancer and then some I am so ready to just get back
to normal. I want to feel like myself again.

Hubby’s new reading glasses are ready today. I have had mine for two weeks.

Enjoy the day and I am sending a hug to you and Jake’s Canvas. ✨✨

😎✨

@taci,

Good morning in S. California I hope all is well in your neighborhood. ✨✨

I would so get out of the way of those Coyotes. Very smart to go in a different directions.
We have Coyotes out here but I rarely see them and that’s a good thing. I do take something
with me to protect Poppy just a little pellet piece. No one had better lay a hand on my dog.💕

I never take my real piece I don’t think it is a good idea.

Happy Trails To You. ✨✨

@oodiebom,

Good afternoon on the Gulf Coast of Florida. I hope you are taking some time to rest
your back and body from all the work you have been doing. Hey all my trash and bins
have been picked up they are gone ✨✨✨

How is your husband feeling today? I know your day is busy so I will see you in Trivia
later this evening be sure to rest up. 😎🌹 Let me know if all the workmen are all
lined up to get your house in shape. Oodie it can’t come soon enough. ✨

@xango,

Good afternoon in beautiful sunny Florida. 😎✨🌹Hey OZ is in the 30’s and I am
fine with that. I put on an Adrian Apfel Jacket and I was so warm. I went for a great
walk with Poppy just to clear my head from all the emotions my family and I are going
through. 🌹

I think everyone is fighting some kind of battle. ✨✨

Thank you for sharing the beautiful love story of your friend. ✨🌹I am glad somewhere
in the world people are not selfish or all about me. I hope he remains happy for the
rest of his days. ✨

Hey see ya in Trivia this evening. 😘🌹

Here’s looking at you sweetie. 😎✨

Loaf,

Good day in your neck of the woods may this be a good Friday for you. 🌹✨😎
