Peace Out Peeps enjoy your evening. ✨✨

I forgot to mention that I thought Passover started the weekend of March 29th. I was shocked when a family member mentioned it was towards the end of April. Always thought that the last supper was during that period. What a shocker!!!!!

I just had a bite to eat and now back to what I started. I did receive a package today from HSN, but I do not think it contains SB’s TS. And speaking of that, I wonder what happened to the TS. There are no pictures and nothing that states it sold out.

Like you, it felt good to get the recycle out along with the regular stuff. For some reason the house seems larger. I even have a few boxes to donate and still adding. By the way, I came across Wolfgang’s pots that was purchased a while ago. I couldn’t get over how well made they are and so similar to All Clad without the added expense. I think the next time he has the set, I just may purchase and bring the other ones North when we go.

Well, back to you know where……

@Sheba

I didn’t visit hubby today. Expect delivery of the dishwasher early AM and thus back to KP.

I happened to be checking on a few things in Amazon and found something interesting for someone who has a knee problem. It’s a thing that enables the person to rest their knee on and it has wheels, thus enabling the person to do many things on the good leg. Kind of cute watching someone wash their kitchen floor as well as able to do other tasks as well. Not sure if hubby will be able to utilize something like this, but, again will bring it up to the Head Nurse. Oh, it also lets the person climb stairs on one leg by holding onto the banister. Once I check with the head nurse on some of these ideas will contact our insurance to see what they can cover.

I still have tons of work in the kitchen, but as of now, I can see the floor. One side of the counters are almost done. Now to move the stuff from the other side so the people will have no problem installing the new dishwasher.

I posted to Taci as well. Received the water bottle holder and the wallet. Both items are made very well. There are quite a few pockets and all enable you to put y our entire hand into the area. Plenty of room for passports, car keys , etc.. Speaking of car keys, I have the OK to take hubby out for a few hours. He won’t be able to get out of the car or van on his own, so it will be just a ride and maybe a stop for lunch where we can eat in the car by the beach or in our driveway. It will be wonderful to have this time together and I mentioned this to him yesterday He is so excited. I just hope and pray that my sinuses will be ok. I need to be at the Rehab around 10 AM and must have him back by 4 PM.. The time slot is to help me get him into and out of the vehicle with help from an aid or a physical therapist. This will be Step 1.. I would do it sooner, but the van is now ready and I will be picking it up on Monday. Tuesday I have the exterminator, which is necessary every three months to keep spiders, ants palmetto bugs, and others away. He also sprays outside for the fire ants.

Well, back to KP. Enjoy your evening and stay warm. Florida will now be in the low 70s during the day and between 55 and 60 at night.

Oodie, Hello. Like Sheba, I am hoping your hubs can get home soon.
Your wallet and water bottle arrived quickly and glad you like them both. I like the idea of the water carrier but prefer back packs to shoulder carriers. I will think about it for a future purchase. Great idea to have it enclosed. Did you get the flowers color-way for all your items?
Much to my shock, the ts backpack arrived today. I think it will work well and I like the type of black, color and material. It’s the one no longer on the website.
The belt bag also arrived. It will work for traveling and the outer pocket will hopefully work for those train tickets/passes. It’s not too big or bulky. Yay! We both like our purchases.

Sheba, hello. Hope your curb day went well. It’s much colder in Oz than here. What is JM?
Glad you enjoyed your luggage purchase and it has held up well. We transitioned to smaller, much smaller and much less for luggage. I use a backpack type pack with wheels for the carry on and will use the new ts backpack as my under the seat. No sets of luggage as it is too difficult with airlines, travels, flights changing, things getting lost etc..
The ts backpack arrived today. I am surprised since it was still in packaging a day ago.
It has completely disappeared off the website. Very odd.
I really like it and will post more under Oodie’s area since she also asked.

Thanks for the AL choco nuvo tip.
We are expecting some rain today still.
Not sure yet if I will watch the eclipse. Did see some glasses in the market for it.

@taci

I received two SB purchases. One was the wallet and the other a bottle carrier. The two pieces are beautifully made. Love the compartments. I was concerned that the compartments would be tight and not easy to use. I was wrong on both counts. My whole hand can get inside each area with ease. Not only that, but they are roomy. Cannot wait to hear how yours are. The TS is on it’s way.

Forgot to mention. The bottle holder is great, but does need something at the top so things don’t slide out. My other suggestion would be to add a way to keep the water cool while out and about. When able, I will write a review on both.

Beyond Counting Blessings

Our gratitude deepens when we begin to be thankful for being alive and living the life we are living.

Often when we practice being thankful, we go through the process of counting our blessings, acknowledging the wonderful people, things, and places that make up our reality. While it is fine to be grateful for the good fortune we have accumulated, true thankfulness stems from a powerful comprehension of the gift of simply being alive regardless of our circumstances. In this deep state of gratitude, we recognize the purity of the experience of being, in and of itself, and our thankfulness is part of our awareness that we are one with this great mystery that is life.

It is difficult for most of us to access this level of consciousness as we are very caught up in the ups and downs of our individual experiences in the world. But the thing to remember about the world is, it ebbs and flows, expands and contracts, gives and takes, and is by its very nature somewhat unreliable. If we only feel gratitude when it serves our desires, this is not true thankfulness. No one is exempt from the twists and turns of fate, which may, at any time, take the possessions, situations, and people we love away from us. Ironically, it is sometimes this kind of loss that awakens us to a thankfulness that goes deeper than just being grateful when things go our way. Illness and near-miss accidents also can serve as wake-up calls to the deeper realization that we are truly lucky to be alive.

We do not have to wait to be shaken to experience this state of being truly thankful for our lives. Tuning into our breath and making an effort to be fully present for a set period of time each day can do wonders for our ability to connect with true gratitude. We also can awaken ourselves with the intention to be more aware of the unconditional generosity of the life force that flows through us regardless of our circumstances. AMEN!
