I cannot believe today is Easter Sunday. I had assumed that Passover was this weekend also. Seems the “Last Supper” and Easter were always (or seemed so) celebrated together. For some reason I kept thinking that the Holiday started the Saturday prior. I was in for quite an awakening when one of our relatives mentioned it was in April this year. No wonder I didn’t see any Passover items in March.

Forgot to mention that I adored the dancers and the dresses with the huge petals. The flowers are absolutely beautiful and an indication of things to come in the spring through the fall. If only my sinus headaches would go away. I was supposed to be weeding the front of the house, but will put it off one more day.

I do recall xango saying she would post when she had something to tell us and not to worry if she didn’t chime in. I think that was stated in February around the time of her anniversary. I had assumed she and her husband had gone away for a few days to celebrate and we would hear from her soon thereafter. I am hoping she is OK and I know we all are on the same page.

My parents home had an Oriental theme and I followed in her footsteps. I have a room divider that separates our laundry room from the kitchen. This contains three panels with what they called soapstone figurines. In Florida, I have two foo dogs on either side of our front steps. It took years to find these and are reminiscent of the ones we saw in China and Hong Kong on either side of a doorway or a retail shop (mainly their Arts & Crafts Store). While in Bangkok I purchased two dolls of Thai dancers and of course I have the Princess and Prince Porcelain Dolls from HSN. These are just a few of our many items, not including furniture. I love the Oriental artwork as well.

I love your animals and how you watch over them. I miss our Mensch, Ziggy (Zigzag) and Felix. All gone, but never forgotten. I am trying to obtain a service dog that will let me know when someone is at the door or the phone is ringing in another room. I also will need him/her to let me know when hubby isn’t feeling well. I need permission from our physician for this to happen. Where we live there are no pets permitted in our section. There are designated areas.
This includes fish, birds, hamsters, dogs, cats, etc… I am currently waiting for the prices of real estate to come down in order to find a new home. For hubby, this house has to have a walk-in shower, and an entry without steps. I am not sure if hubby will ever be able to walk again, so want to make life a bit simpler for him if in a wheelchair or an electric cart. Also not sure if we will remain in Florida due to the high cost of insurance for both auto and home. However, this could become the norm everywhere because of climate change.

Have a great day. I will type again later if home earlier enough. Today’s movie will probably be “Easter Parade.” I will need to check the stations and see if hubby’s TV carries it. Unfortunately, it is Satellite TV and they only are able to get a few channels. Stay safe and enjoy the moonlight with Poppy.

So sorry I think it is time to change the thread and I will do it later.

I wish I had a heads up when this happens. Oh well see you all later. 😎🎈

Happy Easter All.

@oodiebom,

I love your post Hong Kong and Bangkok that is true Orient. 😎💕Glad you were able
to shop til you dropped. The Guards may have been there if there was a VIP in the Hotel.

What great memories I wish you had brought the Sapphire they would match your eyes.

Everything is back to normal with all the critters no one was harmed I got scared for a
moment with the Racoon racing toward the cat as he ate. I am so thankful he saw him
in a split second.

I love all things Asian. 💕

Hong Kong is truly an amazing City so is Bangkok. 😎

@xango,

Good morning sweet friend in Florida. I am sending Happy Easter wishes to you and your
family. We all miss you and if you are taking a break and trying to mend after your fall then
take your time. All we want to know is everything is alright. 😘😎💕Oodie is right you have
skills with your wonderful cooking and prep I love reading about how you do that. 💕

I had early morning Mass today and a nice breakfast we are going out again later on.

Please take care and enjoy this special day. 💕

@oodiebom,

Good morning on this beautiful Sunday Morning. I did see your post and I will respond
to it. I saw it late last night. 😎

I will show you why I was late posting and I wanted it to actually be Easter. 💕

We were watching The Ten Commandments it’s a tradition in my family.
This movie was made before I was born and I love it. 😎💕 This is a very long
movie but time really flies if you are into it. I decided that if I am already up
I may as well post for part of the day. 🎈I was also watching and feeding the cats
as they came and went. The other Critter wanted until the cats ate and then he came.
That is the way I want it. 💕🎈Food is expensive even our food is expensive as you
noted in your post.

Oodie I bet you look gorgeous in anything blue with your blue eyes. 😘

I love your trips to the Orient I think I mention years ago I have an Asian themed house.
I mean those large screens and vases the works. I have been into the Asian homes for
decades. My dad had his store and connections in the Orient and he would order things
for me. Mother of Pearl is one of my favorites in some of the screens and plaques I own.

I am so glad you and your husband got to experience that beautiful country. I have a neighbor
that was born and raised in China she is married to an American and they have a little girl.
Oodie she is so cute and I go across the street and visit with them often as they are the
ones who took both of the cats my nextdoor neighbor did not want. The tabby cat still
comes to my porch and lay on her back so I can rub her belly. 🎈😎😘The cat likes to eat
too. I still look out for her as they let her out.

I am about to make a new post for you be careful outdoors. I also had a sinus problem yesterday and I was taking my time with everything. 😎

@loaf,

Good morning in Ohio and I hope your Easter Sunday with your family is a great one. 🎈😎😘

Good Morning Peeps and Happy Easter in our wonderful Community. 🎈
Please enjoy this special day and stay safe.
