@oodiebom,

Thinking of you tonight and hoping your home on Cape Cod is not in the line
of the storm..

Oodie take care wishing you and your husband a nice evening.

Peace Out Peeps have a great evening. ✨✨

Good evening to you. Spent the day with mom, took her to the hair salon and pretty much hung at her house talking about this and that. Then we had a chip, dip, cheese and coke party!🥤 Lots of healthy eating.🤣

Weather is great, not much planned for the weekend. A friend of mine’s daughter had her first baby so may stop to say hi.🤰 Coincidentally like your being happy for friends post.❤ I’ll take it hour by hour.

BTW, it only took me 10 tries the other day instead of 30 with the recaptcha, woo hoo!😝

Sheba, Hope it was a good day. Going to Colorado will be lots of fun. Are you driving or flying? That may depend what time of year you plan to go. Excited for you.
Have a great time in the arcade tonight.

I am getting ready to make a stop at Costco and then from there to visit hubby. I have started Trivia and hope all goes well. Hubby is in good spirits. Last night I decided to make a stop at Sprouts. I was very disappointed that around 5 pm, there were only five people in the market besides myself. Their prices are high and I think that is the main reason. The Market is not for everyone. However, Hubby needed fruit and this place was just a stones throw from home. A very small detour to the Rehab.

Thank you for covering Rosh Hashanah. I did the same in Trivia. If services are over before the game comes to an end, I will say hello.

No A/C as yet and no phone call. It is very dishearteningly. I am now thinking of staying in a hotel next week to give my body a chance to recover from the humidity and heat in the house. I assume we will be in the same circumstances next week as rain is predicted which means another water issue under the house. But, at least, if I am curled up in a hotel room, they cannot say it is coming from a leak inside.

The Rehab is going downhill in that the front door buzzer isn’t working, the ladies room faucet is out of order, and hubby was given a bell to use when he needs help rather than a buzzer,. Seems that the Electricians and A/C people are shutting down areas that are being worked or or will be worked on shortly. I have no idea how the nurses or aides will know who is using the bells since no light will be on over their doorway.

Again, I am running late. Hope you three enjoy the evening.

Being Happy for Friends

It is important to be there for our friends during the good times, not just the difficult times.

When we are close friends with someone, we intuitively know when they need a hug, a helping hand, or a sympathetic ear. Likewise, when we are going through bleak periods in our lives, we count on friends to support us through loss, illness, and other setbacks, both big and small. And while part of being a good friend means being there when the other person needs us, it is just as important to be there for our friends so we can share in their joyous celebrations and triumphs.

After all, who else would our friends want to celebrate their promotions, graduations, marriages, and good news with than their loved ones and good friends. Yet depending on what is happening in our lives, it can sometimes be difficult to be there for our friends during the good times. We can become so busy with our own lives that we forget to make time. Or we may be so focused on our own problems that we may not feel like celebrating with our friends. We may even take their joyful moments for granted, assuming that as long as we’re there for our friends during the bad times that we are doing our jobs. Yet part of being a true friend means also being there during the good times. Success and happiness can feel empty without someone to share them with, and who better to join in our victory dances than our good friends.

Taking time from our busy lives to honor our friends’ happy moments is a wonderful way to show them that they matter. And in many ways, by wanting you around during their happy occasions, your friends are also honoring you. After all, it is the people we cherish that we want to sing at our birthdays, visit our newborn babies, and pop open that bottle of champagne when we reach a milestone moment. The next time a friend wants you to be there to celebrate with them, remember to feel honored that they thought of asking you. Together, you can celebrate their happiness and your rich friendship. AMEN! 😎😘
