Sheba, Glad you are ok with my post. I was concerned but had to say something.
For someone who doesn’t like jewelry style, that poster certainly watched it a lot. haha
Just makes me think why not move on and watch something else?
Sounds like Heidi Daus has had some difficult personal things happen, yet she shines on HSN, and brings unique jewelry.
With only 2 pages of jewelry left though I have to wonder what is going on. Adam said in the presentation that Heidi is only here a few times per year. We always know where to find her as will her many happy customers.

“Freedom” – Wham

Everyday I hear a different story
People saying that you’re no good for me
“Saw your lover with another, and she’s making a fool of you.”

If you loved me baby, you’d deny it
But you laugh and tell me I should try it
Tell me I’m a baby and I don’t understand

But you know that I’ll forgive you
Just this once, twice, forever
‘Cause, baby, you could drag me to and back
Just as long as we’re together
And you do

I don’t want your freedom
I don’t want to play around
I don’t want nobody, baby
Part-time love just brings me down
I don’t need your freedom
Girl, all I want right now is you

Like a prisoner who has his own key
But I can’t escape until you love me
I just go from day to day
Knowing all about the other boys

You take my hand and tell me I’m a fool
To give you all that I do
I bet you: someday, baby
Someone says the same to you

But you know that I’ll forgive you
Just this once, twice, forever
‘Cause, baby, you could drag me to and back
Just as long as we’re together
And you do

Oh oh

I don’t want your freedom
I don’t want to play around
I don’t want nobody, baby
Part-time love just brings me down
I don’t want your freedom
Girl, all I want right now is you

Do do do do do
Can’t you see you’re hurting me?
Do do do do do

You’re hurting me, baby
Hurting me, baby

Oh oh

Do do doo doo

You’re hurting me baby
Hurting me baby

But you know that I’ll forgive you
Just this once, twice, forever
‘Cause, baby, you could drag me to and back
Just as long as we’re together
And you do oh

I don’t want your freedom
I don’t need to play around
I don’t want nobody, baby
Part-time love just brings me down
I don’t want your freedom
I don’t want to play around
I don’t want nobody, baby
Part-time love just brings me down

I don’t want your
I don’t want your
I don’t want your
I don’t want your
I don’t want your
I don’t want your
I don’t want your

Careless Whisper
Song by George Michael

I feel so unsure
As I take your hand and lead you to the dance floor
As the music dies, something in your eyes
Calls to mind a silver screen
And all its sad good-byes
I’m never gonna dance again
Guilty feet have got no rhythm
Though it’s easy to pretend
I know you’re not a fool
I should’ve known better than to cheat a friend
And waste the chance that I’d been given
So I’m never gonna dance again
The way I danced with you, oh
Time can never mend
The careless whispers of a good friend
To the heart and mind
Ignorance is kind
There’s no comfort in the truth
Pain is all you’ll find
I’m never gonna dance again
Guilty feet have got no rhythm
Though it’s easy to pretend
I know you’re not a fool
I should’ve known better than to cheat a friend (should’ve known better, yeah)
And waste the chance that I’d been given
So I’m never gonna dance again
The way I danced with you, oh
Never without your love
Tonight the music seems so loud
I wish that we could lose this crowd
Maybe it’s better this way
We’d hurt each other with the things we’d want to say
We could have been so good together
We could have lived this dance forever
But now, who’s gonna dance with me?
Please stay
And I’m never gonna dance again
Guilty feet have got no rhythm
Though it’s easy to pretend
I know you’re not a fool
I should’ve known better than to cheat a friend
And waste the chance that I’d been given
So I’m never gonna dance again
The way I danced with you, oh
now that you’re gone
(Now that you’re gone) was what I did so wrong, so wrong
That you had to leave me alone?

Last Christmas
Song by Wham!

Last Christmas I gave you my heart
But the very next day you gave it away
This year, to save me from tears
I’ll give it to someone special
Last Christmas I gave you my heart
But the very next day you gave it away
This year, to save me from tears
I’ll give it to someone special
Once bitten and twice shy
I keep my distance, but you still catch my eye
Tell me baby, do you recognize me?
Well, it’s been a year, it doesn’t surprise me
Happy Christmas, I wrapped it up and sent it
With a note saying “I love you”, I meant it
Now I know what a fool I’ve been
But if you kissed me now, I know you’d fool me again
Last Christmas I gave you my heart
But the very next day you gave it away
This year, to save me from tears
I’ll give it to someone special
Last Christmas I gave you my heart
But the very next day you gave it away
This year, to save me from tears
I’ll give it to someone special
Ooh
Oh, oh, baby
A crowded room, friends with tired eyes
I’m hiding from you and your soul of ice
My God, I thought you were someone to rely on
Me? I guess I was a shoulder to cry on
A face on a lover with a fire in his heart
A man under cover, but you tore me apart
Oh, oh now I’ve found a real love
You’ll never fool me again
Last Christmas I gave you my heart
But the very next day you gave it away
This year, to save me from tears
I’ll give it to someone special, special
Last Christmas I gave you my heart
But the very next day you gave it away
This year, to save me from tears
I’ll give it to someone special
Special
A face on a lover with a fire in his heart (I gave you mine)
A man under cover but you tore him apart
Maybe next year I’ll give it to someone
I’ll give it to someone special
Special
So long

“Wham Rap! (Enjoy What You Do?)”

You got soul on the dole?
You’re gonna have a good time
Down on the line
You got soul on the dole?
You’re gonna have a good time
Down on the line

I said get
Get
Get on down
I said get
Get
Get on down
I said get
Get get on down
I said get
Get
Get on down

Hey everybody take a look at me,
I’ve got street credibility,
I may not have a job,
But I have a good time,
With the boys that I meet “down on the line”

I said D. H. S. S.
Man the rhythm that they’re givin’
Is the very best

I said b one b two
Make the claims
On your name
All you have to do

Well…
Folks can be a drag
If work ain’t your bag
And when you let them know
You’re more dead then alive
In a nine to five
Then they say you’d got to go

And…
Get yourselves a job
Or get out of this house
Get yourself a job
Are you a man or a mouse
A finger in each ear
You pretend not to hear
Gotta get some space
Get out of this place

[Chorus:]
Wham!
Bam!
I am!
A man!
Job or no job
You can’t tell me that I’m not
Do!
You!
Enjoy what you do?
If not
Just stop!
Don’t stay there and rot!

In the streets
In the cars
On the underground
If you listen real hard
You can hear the sound
Of a million people
Switching off for work
Well listen Mr. Average
You’re a jerk

Not me
You can’t hold me down
Not me
I’m gonna fool around
Gonna have some fun
Look out for number one
You can dig your grave
I’m staying young!

[Chorus]

If you’re a pub man
Or a club man
Maybe a jet black guy
With a hip hi-fi
A white cool cat
With a trilby hat
Maybe leather and studs
Is where you’re at
Make the most of everyday
Don’t let hard times
Stand in your way
Give a wham
Give a bam
But don’t give a
‘Cos the benefit gang
Are gonna pay

Now reach up high and touch your soul
The boys from Wham! will help you reach that goal
It’s gonna break your mama’s heart (so sad)
It’s gonna break your daddy’s heart (too bad)
Just throw the dice and take my advice
‘Cos I know that you’re smart
Can you dig this thing? (Yeah!)
Are you gonna get down? (Yeah!)
Say Wham! WHAM!
Say Bam! BAM!

I did not go to the rehab today. During the afternoon I felt awful and could not understand why. I was sweating and just felt icky. Decided to take a look at the A/C and found that the temp was 92 in the house and climbing. So, I turned it off completely for a half hour. I then noticed some things were against the area and moved them out of the way. After about a half hour turned everything on and it seemed to be working OK. The temp was 88 and I didn’t hear the noise coming from the filter area. So did another shutoff and now I can feel the cool breeze from the fan. I will wait until Monday to make any phone calls if things don’t change, though I think everything could be fine now. The filter looks clean, but will wash it in daylight and I will sweep the area. Not to worry. Everything will be off including the electrical in the panel. I would make a phone call, but they still wouldn’t be here before Monday. I also have overhead fans if needed.

I did contact the rehab and found that my hubby’s roommate had passed sometime this morning. I was initially told that he had a blood disease, but wonder if it may have been something with his breathing. I did bring this up to the head nurse/unit mgr. I also mentioned that the episode seemed to pass. His wife visited for an hour on Thursday. For some reason she didn’t come that often.

Tomorrow I will pick up dinner for both of us. I have a yen for pizza and will bring a sub to hubby. I also need gas and right now I seem to be driving on fumes. Sam’s is close by and I checked for the price and it seems they are in line with Costco at $3.18/gal.

Today I received a small bookcase in seafoam. Absolutely beautiful and will go nicely in the reading area of the MB. I purchased a garden seat for the Master as well and the two go together really well. So excited. Both pieces are in the second bathroom, so they are out of harms way. Now I need to find someone to take our bed completely a part and put it back together again using the right hardware. Right now the mattress fits on one side only.

I am hoping to get an early start tomorrow. The house can wait another day Just very concerned with hubby and his roommate passing. I hope to be with him all day and into the evening.

Sheba, Hello. Poppy is just adorable! Oz sounds very hot.
Today I changed locations to break things up and went early in the afternoon. There was a nice breeze even though it was a warm one. I only saw 2 people the entire time. Makes for a low key hike. I liked it. Going to try it again tomorrow.
Interesting post about Audrey Hepburn. Very impressive to speak all those languages.
Are you planning to see any of the movies out currently? Hubs wants to see Oppenheimer next week. The Sound of Freedom is hugely popular and so is Barbie apparently.
Agree with you, your thread is positive, encouraging, insightful, and visually beautiful. It reflects your lovely self.
Have a great evening.

@taci,

Thank you for posting on the Heidi Daus Thread. 😘💕✨Taci you are one cool lady. 😎

OZ is very warm even the crescent moon looks orange like still beautiful.

Heidi has had a very rough two years and no one knows except a few yet she has grace
and charm and I love her and her jewelry pieces. ✨

Club Sheba Enjoy What You Do Edition. 😎✨

Oodie, only 2 pages of Heidi Daus jewelry is left. I looked for the Frog Prince Ring, and it’s not even in the sold out area, just gone. I am happy you were able to purchase a nice new necklace!
Nice post on the Heidi thread.
We shop Aldi so I will look out for the preservatives and salt.
Usually I buy just the veggies there but hubs likes everything else.

Best to you and hubby.

@sheba2011

I enjoyed Heidi yesterday, but, in my opinion, she was not her joyful, energetic self. During the second hour I thought she was a bit sad and I could have sworn she was trying to hold back tears. I think I missed why. I did purchase her “Dazzling Demoiselle” necklace. And now I see there are 15 or 16 left.

We have an air quality alert and it could be the reason that I feel down and out. I think today will be a pizza day and will stop at the new deli for the meat lover’s. The house is too hot for me to cook or use the airfryer. Also too hot to make hubby’s winter melon soup.

Instead of Costco, will be stopping at Sam’s for gas. There were quite a few articles on line going into the difference between Sam’s and Costco. Though there is a huge difference in membership price, and also a difference in food quality. Most of Sam’s ready made meals and veggies look good in the case. That is, until you read the label. Most contain preservatives and lots of salt. Their meats also contain preservatives and one needs to read the labels. Same goes for Aldi’s.

Last night’s get together for Trivia was good. I was able to play the game and say hi to everyone. Hubby was in bed by 7:30 pm. I brought him a bagel with cream cheese, onion and lox. He ate half and I left the other half to go into the frig at the nurse’s station. Going home I missed all 7 lights. One was quite long and not part of a highway. It was good to be home. It took over a half hour to travel 8 miles.

Hope you are nice and cool.

Speaking With Purpose

Our best chance of getting what we need is to communicate by converting our inner voice to our outside voice.

Each of us has developed an internal filtering process that helps us choose which parts of our constant inner monologues get voiced outside of our heads. Sometimes the choice is based on what we consider to be polite or appropriate, using subtlety instead of directness to try to get our point across. Other times, the choice is made based on our expectations of the other person and what we feel they should know about us, our feelings, and our needs. But our best chance of getting what we need is to communicate specifically by converting our inner voice to our outside voice.

This may seem unnecessary sometimes, especially when we think the other person has the same information we ourselves are working with, but we have to remember they also have their own inner voice, evaluating what they hear in light of their own issues and needs. With so much to consider and sift through, we are truly better off if we communicate precisely. Not only does doing this minimize the chance for misinterpretation, but voicing our thoughts is an act of creation. We convert thought and imagination to sound, releasing it from the chamber of our minds into the outside world. This carries energy and intention with it, making our thoughts, wishes, and even dreams come true.

When we have the courage to speak our minds and use our voice to send the desires of our hearts from our inner world to the world outside, we take a bold step in making them happen. By removing fear of what others may think and expectation of what others should understand, we free ourselves and let loose our desires onto the canvas of the world. Next time we become aware that we have a choice about how to communicate, we can choose to use our outside voice and watch its creative power at work. AMEN! ✨✨
