Peace Out Peeps enjoy your evening and keep safe and cool. ✨✨

@oodiebom,

I love the Board Walk Necklace and this would be a treat for you if you so desired it. 😘✨

I will be watching Heidi Daus tomorrow can’t wait. ✨✨

I hope your husband is eating and getting stronger so he can have his treatment and come
home to you. 🌹

I am going to watch the presentation I love how Heidi Daus presents her pieces.
I think if you miss it there is a way to watch it I will check into that.

Oodie please get some rest as tomorrow is Trivia and a rather long day.

@taci,

Good evening this Boardwalk Necklace by Heidi Daus is gorgeous. 😘💕🌹😎

Heidi Daus Boardwalk Bling Crystal Beaded Collar Necklace

I love this color way and it is one of my favorites. This can go back to other pieces in this
color way.

Taci I hope you get to hike tonight OZ is cool for now Poppy and I just got back from a nice
walk. 🌹Hey I will never feel the same as we go under large trees I will always listen
and watch Poppy in case I have to grab him and run and believe me I can run. ✨✨

Are you wearing those beautiful Rarities Earrings? Taci you and Oodie have excellent taste
in jewels. 💕

Sheba, another adorable picture, Yes, I would definitely crack up.
With all the cutting of the fallen trees, some should have lots of firewood for winter.
It is sad though as the trees were so old and survived so long.

It’s about 85 outside and we had some neighbors over to catch up and were outside.
Too hot for hiking or walking outside, I’ll have to wait it out.
Tomorrow’s the big day when Ms. Heidi returns. Hope she has a successful airing and what a lovely bright light she is! I hope to watch too.
Oodie is eyeing the Boardwalk Necklace, wowza! Such a cool creative piece.

Hi and a good afternoon to you. I am getting ready for a trip to Costco and for their gas. I will pick up some hotdogs and not sure about anything else, though pizza sounds OK. Just wish they had more to choose from in that area. Will also bring ice cream for hubby. I picked up one package of plain/original bagels from the Farmer’s Market. Not bad, though they are packaged and made in NY. It’s the closest I’ve found to a real water bagel since being in Florida. Costco makes their own and the flavor just isn’t there. They had used an outsider who was really good, but guess they went under during the pandemic. So many businesses lost during that time and now.

Tomorrow is Heidi and I will bring my Kindle, though, I don’t think I will be able to watch. Hubby is trying desperately to get home. I told him he needs to be able to get into the van on his own and I also mentioned that we could get a ramp so he can have an entry into the house. He also has to be able to get into and out of bed by himself. I cannot say he isn’t trying. He is weak all over and so sad to watch. But, most of the problem is not eating. I’m going to check some of the drinks at Costco and see if I can find something. Since he has lost so much weight, I am not concerned with the sugar content at this time. I think tomorrow I will make him lox with cream cheese and onion as an appetizer.

By the way, speaking of Heidi, what do you think about her “Boardwalk Necklace.” My parents used to vacation for a few days during the winter at Atlantic Beach and would always take me. Never went on any of the rides at the Amusement area, but enjoyed stopping at the various stores on the Boardwalk. Most were closed, but still a fun spot. Also dad won a Polaroid Camera one year that we were there. He had so much fun using it. Could not get over the pictures that he could see immediately. And, yes, we did go a few times during the summer when there were just a few tourists like us. But, we enjoyed the Cape more. Too bad the “Tree” will no longer be part of the landscape.

Have a wonderful day. I know I don’t have to tell you to stay hydrated.

Healthy, Wealthy, and Wise

It is in the act of giving without the expectation of anything in return that we find joy.

Since giving and receiving are so intimately intertwined in our lives, we often expect that we can attract abundance by simply conducting ourselves in an openhanded fashion. Yet we find ourselves wallowing in disappointment when our ample generosity is not met with the expected results. The answer to this quandary lies in the expectations that, in part, initially prompted us to give. Though our intention is likely pure, we can unintentionally mar the beautiful experience of giving by focusing on what we will eventually receive in return. When we let go of the notion that we deserve to receive gifts based on giving gifts, bounty can once again flow freely in and out of our lives.

When the gifts you give are laden with expectations, they cease to be gifts and become units of exchange; the reciprocal laws of the universe err on the side of the giver who shares for the sake of sharing. You may have seen this simple truth at work in your own experience, perhaps when life’s busyness prevented you from spending too much time contemplating the results your charitable actions would ultimately have on the lives of others. It was likely then that you received the greatest gifts in return for your kindness.

If you have trouble divesting yourself of your expectations, you may need to reflect upon the root of your inability to act in the true spirit of giving. Each time you make a gift, whether spiritual or tangible, ask yourself if there is something you hope to receive in return. You may be surprised to discover that you expect to be repaid with an easy life, financial windfalls, or opportunities.

To integrate this most selfless form of generosity into your life, you will have to let go of your need to be in control. Giving eventually becomes a profound joy that stands alone, separate from any and all conditions, and you will learn to appreciate the flow of reciprocal abundance as a gift in and of itself. AMEN! ✨✨

@oodiebom,

Good afternoon on the Gulf Coast of Florida. 💕😎🌹✨Oodie how are you doing today?

I hope you got some good rain let me tell you OZ had a bit of rain just not enough. ✨

Triple digits all week long and you guess it recycle and trash day I am thankful the crew
came very early hubby and I put it out around 6:00 a.m. because they can come as early
as 7:00 a.m. which is fine with me.

Oodie what is on schedule for hubby today? I hope he is eating and trying to move the
best of his ability. Oodie Florida sounds wonderful for shopping for fresh in season fruit.
Where you were yesterday I would love to shop there seems like all the fruits and food
had it’s own area sounds like it’s a rather large place too with a lot of selections. 💕💕😎

I am glad to hear you are getting back to normal keep your meds with you at all times.

Hey don’t get too much sun and just slow down a bit. ✨✨ Wishing you a nice cool and calm
day. Let me know how things are going there is always something going on. 🌹

chicken croquette just curious it sounds very good. ✨😎
