NATIONAL MAKING LIFE BEAUTIFUL DAY

National Making Life Beautiful Day on June 11 dedicates a celebration to those who make life beautiful. Whether you’re creating beauty by building relationships or helping others achieve personal success, your actions create a ripple effect. You are making life beautiful not just for yourself, but for those around you, too.

Beauty comes in many forms. From a kind word to a gentle soul, those who lift up others and find strength in the sparest strands of hope bring beauty into this world. Some send messages in the form of bold art while others roll up their sleeves in times of need. Those beautiful people heal the wounded, ease the hearts of the weary, and empower others to be the best person they can be to make life so very beautiful.

Making life beautiful begins within. When you find appreciation for the gifts you have in your life it’s easy to reciprocate those feelings to others. For example, being optimistic and intentional about your thoughts and actions emits positivity. That positivity can easily encourage other to aspire to keep a positive mind. Smile, be thankful, and always be kind.

I am now home. Had to pop in to let you know that we are now getting a gentle rain with a thunder storm. I hope xango is also getting some. Evidently, there was a lightning strike near us. Walked in and no electricity. It came on about 10 minutes ago. I will need to reset some of the clocks. No big deal. I guess we will not see 2″ of rain. Seems the weather people are predicting 1o” to 12″ in our area. Sounds good. However, when this is over and the sun brings the temp to 95 we will be back to the drought problem once again. Oh well. Such is life. Time to roll with the tide.

@shoelady60,

Good evening I am so sorry about that cough and it’s lasting for a bit. YIKES!
I hope you both get well soon. I think coughing is the worse of all the cold issues.

I am so sorry about your BIL being in the hospital I hope he recovers well.
What is going on in the world everyone is fighting some kind of battle.

Enjoy a glass with your husband and enjoy the Game. 🎈💕
Hubby and I are watching off and on.

@oodiebom,

Good evening the headache part is what I have been dealing with the sinus issue.
That is why I had a video visit and thank god I have been with her for over 20 years
she knows my medical history very well. The antibiotic are doing a number on my stomach
just a little woozy that’s all. I am snapping out of it. 😎

I hope you see your Physician soon and get some real relief. Sorry you could not see
hubby but if you are under the weather in that heat it is not a good idea to be out.

Oodie our meals were very similar and I had mine all plan and one this morning. I made
Spaghetti and meat sauce with salad and Garlic Bread. Hubby loved it and took a shower
and is now resting. 😘😎💕

I have been feeding the animals a poor possum came on the porch and spilled the water
trying to get away. I was not going after him I always leave water for the Possums. I know
they take care of the little things we don’t like but they drink a lot of water.

I certainly did call animal control today and they got back with me late but at least a
entrapment will be put out for the other critter. I have no mice or rats. I am thankful for that
and I have a service contract for pest control to make sure I don’t have them. 😎 I have
seen some little ants as this is the season for them here and they get rid of those too.

I hope you don’t lift too much the plants can wait a bit at this point. I would wait until it
cools down and then do all the planting. I ordered from Sam’s today but I have free shipping
and delivery and I brought a bit from them that will be delivered this week. Xango taught me
that move. 😎 There are times when I like going into the store I especially like to pick out
my own bread and meats and special treats. Hey for all the heavy stuff I have them leave
it at the front door. 🎈

Enjoy your evening Oodie I am going to take a shower it helps with the headaches.

One more thing we are changing our A/C Filters I want clean filters so the air flows out
clean and pure. I also have a air humidifier that goes all over the house. OZ will be very warm
in another day or so. I am getting ready for it and that means taking Poppy out early morning
well I do that anyway but I need to get my steps in so it’s good for both of us than we walk
again in the late evening. 🎈

Oodie I hope your day is going well. 😎I hope your husband has a very good appt. this week.

George Michael Lyrics
“Careless Whisper”

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 goodbyes

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

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 have 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

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 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

Now that you’re gone
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?

Peace Out Peeps enjoy your warm evening.

Gorgeous pics today.💗 It is actually a little chilly with temps in the 60’s. In a couple days it will be near 90.🔥

Hubs and I still coughing, someday this will be gone. BIL in the hospital with bronchial pneumonia, mom and sis okay. Haven’t seen them for about 10 days since this cough/cold started.😕 Glad your sinuses are finally easing up.

Sure hope all your bad weather is done for a while. I think I’ll redo National Rose’ Day while I watch the game tonight, why not?🙄 Cool hugs to you and Poppy.🤗💖

It is very cloudy here, but thus far no rain. Temp is in the high 80s and the humidity is 95%. The temp will soar to over 95 which means when you factor in the humidity, over 100.

I will be making spaghetti and meatballs today.. Had a migraine yesterday and thus did not see hubby. I have a phone call into our physician. I’m getting too many headaches which are sinus related. I’m hoping to make a stop at Sam’s C;ub for potting soil. Finally found the large planters in the color I wanted. Hopefully, I will be able to plant either today or tomorrow. It is supposed to rain from tomorrow on with over 2″ expected. This will not end the drought, but is a good start.

Hubby has a virtual doctor’s appointment on Wednesday with the Urologist. He is doing OK, but forgets to drink liquids. He forgets he no longer has the prostrate problem since the surgeons were able to make a pathway around that area.

Guess I better get a move on. Have a wonderful afternoon and evening. If you are still seeing the raccoon, you should contact Wildlife Animal Control in your area. They will probably set a trap and remove the raccoon and bring it to a different location that is away from people. They are a no kill organization. However, dealing with mice or rats are a different story.
