Within the heart of life, a hidden fire awakens; and when courage embraces stillness, the soul rises like a dancer in bloom—revealing that true beauty is not in what we possess, but in what we dare to become.

@xango,

Happy Holiday’s 🎈

@oodiebom,

Good day on the Gulf Coast of Florida. 🎈😎Oodie I hope things are going well for you
and hubby. Keeping you in my prayers.

Let me know how things go today when you have time. 😎

@sheba2011

Looks like our bathroom may be getting a few changes on Friday. The person scheduled to do the work phoned yesterday morning and apologized for Friday. He actually had no idea that he was supposed to start Friday afternoon. His explanation showed me that the owners did not share anything with the staff and those who would participate in the demolition and rebuild. The contractor said he was never told that my hubs is confined to a wheelchair. He now understood why I said a glass partition of sorts to prevent water on the tiled floor was important. A shower curtain could in fact be a disaster. He also mentioned that the vanity would be here in a couple of weeks at which time I told him how much I detested it. It looked like pieces of wood thrown together. No structure. Not even close to a style. There are four drawers. All are close to the floor which makes it a difficult situation for hubby when he is in a wheelchair. I can just imagine him tipping over getting to the bottom drawer. Not a good picture. Yes, I am happy about getting the work done, however, I will still get an attorney in case I need extra help and other things later.

Today I had my hair done. I feel like a renewed person. I didn’t see hubs today, but did yesterday. He must have heard my voice because as I walked to the hallway leading to his room, there he was coming out of the TV room all smiles. I had to look twice. I saw, for the first time in months, hubs looking so radiant and happy. There was no sign of dementia anywhere and so far this week, it is nice having him back. I still say that most of this is due to not getting the vitamins and minerals he needs. Guess my making the necessary phone calls has helped. Now, back to moving things around.

Weather here is a bit cooler. Temps tonight will be in the low 50s. At the moment it is 63 as I ty;pe. We will be enjoying a cool down the rest of the week. No precipitation in sight. Temps will be in the mid 60s to low 70s with 50s nightly. I am prepared to layer.

Sorry about the Chiefs. At least the next few games will be just that. Games. At least it will be less stressful. We sometimes have to feel like the underdog in order to kick up our heels and go on.to do our best. Have a wonderful evening. Hope the kitties are OK.

@taci,

Good morning in S. California and I hope you and the family are all alright. 😎🎈

Here is to the Holiday Season.

Happy Trails. 🎈

Sheba, Dec 9th already. December is moving along.
Those Prestige Jewelry boxes always call to me because I love seeing the items in the box and organizing everything. The cream colored 3 drawer style is my favorite. I bought it about a year ago.
Happy Tuesday to you. Hope you and Poppy had a great walk today (weather permitting).

@taci,

Good Evening I did get a good walk for me and Poppy. 😎We have a change in
weather and it will be very cold tomorrow.

Taci still doing a bit of this and that almost done. 😎🎈

I hope you are enjoying the season. 💕

@shoelady60,

Good Day in the ‘burgh. 🎈😎 Oz has some sun today and I am happy about that.
I know we are all busy this time of year.

I am multi-tasking again today well that’s life. 😎🎈

Enjoy the day the cats are doing fine and eating up everything. LOL!

Sending warm vibes to you and Jake. 🎈😎

@sheba2011

Good afternoon to you. Sun this morning, dreary this afternoon. Mix of rain/snow all day tomorrow. Just hope I can get out of my driveway to meet mom at the doc’s.

Kind of a slow day, stayed in and did a few things around the house. Leftovers for dinner.

Sending holiday hugs to you, Poppy and the cats.🤗💖

@shoelady60,

Good Evening OZ is getting cold tonight. I have extra blankets on the bed.

I was cheering for your Hockey Team I feel they are still doing great. 😎🎈

I hope your mom will do well tomorrow and her wrist has healed.

Please time permitting let me know how she is doing. The weather is so
craycray too early for all of this cold and snow.

Sweet Dreams.

@kittengirl,

Good Morning in California wishing you and all a Happy Holiday Kitten. 🎈😎

Paranoid
Song by Mr. Hudson

She really thought that? (Yeah)
Yeah, she’s so paranoid (yeah, that’s good, paranoid)
Girls gonna love this song, ahaha
Why are you so paranoid? (Aha-ha-ha-ha-ha)
Don’t be so paranoid, don’t be so
Baby, don’t worry ’bout it
Hey there, don’t even think about it
You worry ’bout the wrong things, the wrong things
You worry ’bout the wrong things, the wrong things
You worry ’bout the wrong things, the wrong things
You worry ’bout the wrong things, the wrong things
Tell me right now
You really wanna spend your whole life alone?
A little time out might do you good
Might do us good ‘fore we be done for good
‘Cause I could make it good, I could make it hood
I could make you come, I could make you go
I could make you high, I can make you fly
Make you touch the sky, hey, maybe so
All of the time
You be up in mine checkin’ through my cell phone, baby, no
You wanna kill the vibe on another night
Here’s another fight, oh, here we go (oh, here we go)
Baby, don’t worry ’bout it
Lady, we’ll go out to the floor
Anyway, they don’t know you (they don’t know) like I do
They’ll never know you (never know)
Anyway, they don’t know you (never know) like I do
They’ll never know you
All of the time
You wanna complain about the nights alone
So now you’re here with me, show some gratitude
Leave the attitude way back at home
Yeah, you see ’em look
Baby, let ’em look, give ya cold looks ’cause we look cold
Yeah, you heard about all the word of mouth
Don’t worry ’bout what we can’t control
All the talk in the world lost in the world
‘Til you finally let that thing go
You wanna check into the heartbreak hotel
But sorry, we’re closed
Baby, don’t worry about it
Baby, we’ll go out to the floor
Anyway (hey) they don’t know you (to the floor) like I do (hey)
They’ll never know you (never know)
Anyway, they don’t know you (they don’t know) like I do
They’ll never know you
Baby, don’t worry ’bout it
Baby, don’t even think about it
You worry ’bout the wrong things, the wrong things
You worry ’bout the wrong things, the wrong things
You worry ’bout the wrong things, the wrong things
You worry ’bout the wrong things
Anyway, they don’t know you like I do
They’ll never know you
Anyway, they don’t know you like I do
They’ll never know you
Anyway, they don’t know you like I do
They’ll never know you
Anyway, they don’t know you like I do
They’ll never know you

Love Lockdown
Song by Kanye West

I’m not loving you, way I wanted to
What I had to do, had to run from you
I’m in love with you, but the vibe is wrong
And that haunted me all the way home
So you never know, never-never know
Never know enough, ’til it’s over love
‘Til we lose control, system overload
Screaming, “No! No! No! N-No!”
I’m not loving you, the way I wanted to
See, I wanna move, but can’t escape from you
So I keep it low, keep a secret code
So everybody else don’t have to know
So keep your love locked down
Your love locked down
Keeping your love locked down
Your love locked down
Now keep your love locked down
Your love locked down
Now keep your love locked down
You lose
I’m not loving you way I wanted to
I can’t keep my cool, so I keep it true
I got something to lose, so I gotta move
I can’t keep myself, and still keep you too
So I keep in mind, when I’m on my own
Somewhere far from home, in the danger zone
How many times did I tell ya ‘fore it finally got through?
You lose, you lose
I’m not loving you, the way I wanted to
See, I had to go, see, I had to move
No more wasting time, you can’t wait for life
We’re just racing time, where’s the finish line?
So keep your love locked down
Your love locked down
Keeping your love locked down
Your love locked down
Now keep your love locked down
Your love locked down
Now keep your love locked down
You lose
I’m not loving you way I wanted to
I bet no one knew, I got no one new
I know I said I’m through, but got love for you
But I’m not loving you, the way I wanted to
Gotta keep it going, keep the loving going
Keep it on a roll, only God knows
If I be with you, baby, I’m confused
You choose, you choose
I’m not loving you, the way I wanted to
Where I wanna go, I don’t need you
I’ve been down this road, too many times before
I’m not loving you, way I wanted to
So keep your love locked down
Your love locked down
Keeping your love locked down
Your love locked down
Now keep your love locked down
Your love locked down
Now keep your love locked down
You lose, you lose
You lose, you lose
You lose

The Bangles Lyrics
“Manic Monday”

Six o’clock already
I was just in the middle of a dream
I was kissin’ Valentino
By a crystal blue Italian stream
But I can’t be late
‘Cause then I guess I just won’t get paid
These are the days
When you wish your bed was already made

It’s just another manic Monday
I wish it was Sunday
‘Cause that’s my fun day
My “I don’t have to run” day
It’s just another manic Monday

Have to catch an early train
Got to be to work by nine
And if I had an airplane
I still couldn’t make it on time
‘Cause it takes me so long just to figure out
What I’m gonna wear
Blame it on the train
But the boss is already there

It’s just another manic Monday
Wish it was Sunday
‘Cause that’s my fun day
My “I don’t have to run” day
It’s just another manic Monday

All of my nights
Why did my lover have to pick last night
To get down?
(Last night, last night)
Doesn’t it matter
That I have to feed the both of us
Employment’s down
He tells me in his bedroom voice
“C’mon honey, let’s go make some noise”
Time it goes so fast
(When you’re having fun)

It’s just another manic Monday
I wish it was Sunday
‘Cause that’s my fun day
“I don’t have to run” day

It’s just another manic Monday
I wish it was Sunday
‘Cause that’s my fun day
It’s just a manic Monday

We exist, because we feel.

A celebration of movement and energy, ‘Golden Dance’ is about finding joy in every step.

Bette Davis never shied away from honesty, and when she spoke about All About Eve, she did so with the kind of raw gratitude that only comes from surviving a career slump. Before the film, she had faced several box-office disappointments, and Hollywood had begun whispering that her era was ending. But when Joseph L. Mankiewicz cast her as Margo Channing, everything changed. Bette later said that he brought her back to life, not just as an actress, but as a force audiences couldn’t ignore.
On set, Bette thrived in a way she hadn’t in years. The sharp dialogue, the dramatic tension and the emotional complexity of Margo Channing fit her like a glove. She delivered her lines with a confidence and fire that reminded everyone why she had become a legend in the first place. Cast and crew often recalled how she lit up the room whenever she stepped into character, turning every scene into a masterclass in timing and presence.
What made the experience even more meaningful was how deeply personal the role felt to her. Margo’s struggle with aging, insecurity and fame mirrored Davis’s own fears at the time. She poured those emotions into the performance, creating something timeless. All About Eve didn’t just revive her career. It reintroduced Bette Davis to the world with a performance so commanding that it secured her legacy for generations to come.

@xango,

@sheba2011

Those are the exact pictures I saw, so lovely. Nice that the teenager had the money to splurge and explains why there were no drinks. Love it!😄

I did see the whole game last night. Something is off this year but I learned never say never until the regular season is over. Crazy things have happened.😲

Cold here, high of 29, maybe.🥶 Cold all week again.

Thanks for the refreshment, I think that’s The Alchemy. Sending warm hugs to you and Poppy.🤗💖

NATIONAL PEARL HARBOR REMEMBRANCE DAY

Each year in the United States, National Pearl Harbor Remembrance Day honors all those who lost their lives when Japan attacked Pearl Harbor on December 7, 1941. More than 3,500 Americans lost their lives or were wounded on that solemn day.

NATIONAL SLIME DAY

December 7 is National Slime Day at National Day Calendar and things are about to get slippery for the rest of the day. Today’s National Day celebrates the slimy, slippery, and squishy pop culture goo that has been engaging kids (and adults) in play since the 1970s.

NATIONAL COTTON CANDY DAY

National Cotton Candy Day celebrates the spun sugar treat that delights candy fans of all ages. On December 7th get your favorite flavor of this sweet delight that dates back to the 1400s.

NATIONAL ILLINOIS DAY

On December 7th, National Illinois Day recognizes the Land of Lincoln, home to the Windy City, and fertile prairies.

A very heart-wrenching aerial view of Pearl Harbor, captured in the doomed minutes as torpedoes tore through Battleship Row on December 7, 1941. In that inferno of steel and smoke, 2,403 Americans were lost and 1,178 more were wounded, lives forever altered in a single, shattering morning. Yet amid the devastation rose extraordinary courage: sailors fighting through fire, shipmates refusing to abandon one another, bravery shining against overwhelming darkness. Today, we remember their sacrifice with reverence, sorrow, and unending gratitude. Their legacy endures in every breath of freedom that followed.🕊️🇺🇸⚓

Good Morning Peeps and Happy Holidays enjoy your shopping. 🎈

It’s the Most Wonderful Time of the Year
Song by Andy Williams

It’s the most wonderful time of the year
With the kids jingle belling
And everyone telling you be of good cheer
It’s the most wonderful time of the year
It’s the hap-happiest season of all
With those holiday greetings and happy meetings
When friends come to call
It’s the hap-happiest season of all
There’ll be parties for hosting
Marshmallows for toasting
And caroling out in the snow
There’ll be scary ghost stories
And tales of the glories of
Christmases long, long ago
It’s the most wonderful time of the year
There’ll be much mistltoeing
And hearts will be glowing
When loved ones are near
It’s the most wonderful time of the year
There’ll be parties for hosting
Marshmallows for toasting
And caroling out in the snow
There’ll be scary ghost stories
And tales of the glories of
Christmases long, long ago
It’s the most wonderful time of the year
There’ll be much mistltoeing
And hearts will be glowing
When loved ones are near
It’s the most wonderful time
Yes the most wonderful time
Oh the most wonderful time
Of the year

@xango,

@oodiebom,

Good day on the Gulf Coast of Florida. 🎈😎Oodie I read your post from last night.
Trust your instincts this contractor is rinse and repeat always no call someone first.
All they seem to want is your check I would have done the same thing. Oodie something
is off here go with your gut feelings.

Here is to better days ahead. 🎈😎

@Sheba

Cloudy today with some light rain. Temps in the mid 70s with 100% humidity. Heavy rain this evening. The plants will be very happy.

I spent part of the day clearing the desk. Papers were piled rather high on the left side. Need to do the other. I have plastic bins in the trunk of my car and will be sorting things so that I have a better filing system. I purchased a few origami pieces sometime ago and they will be perfect for these bins. Guess the second bedroom will become an office. At least there will be some semblance of order, especially when tax season begins. .

I know tonight is game night. They will be playing on home turf in real cold temps. You know whom I will be routing for.

Tomorrow I will be contacting an attorney. This thing has gone way beyond me. Asking for $$ when all you’ve done is to deliver the accessories for the shower only. By the way, those accessories he brought has bare;u a 3 pit pf 5 stars. It’s all plastic and not cheap. I do have someone else in mind if I do not use these people.

Tomorrow is garbage and recycle. I will be putting things out this afternoon. Not sure if anyone will show tomorrow. No phone call on time and if there is no phone call I will not be opening the door,

@oodiebom,

Good Evening wishing you a peaceful and restful night. 😎💕
Things will look different in the morning light.

I would love you with a nice office. 🎈😎

@taci,

Good Morning in S. California we are all busy this time of year. I hope you and your
family are having some fun doing all this festive. 😎🎈

Here is to the Season. 🎈

Happy and safe trails. 😎

@shoelady60,

Good day in the ‘burgh. Thank you for the shout out on Game Day. 😎🎈
This is a must win game and this is where skills and talent comes into play.

Your comment on 1587 was interesting so I will show what I found online. 🎈😎

Lady I spend more money on make-up this is a piece cake. LOL! 😎

When the family goes I am taking pictures of everything with permission. 🎈😎

I have never been to that building but it’s only a 20 minute drive from home. 😎
I am in Kansas and it’s in MO. We are part of Chiefs Kingdom. 😎🎈

Lady that was fun to look at all the pics and there are a lot online.

Cold day in OZ but the animals are fine. 🎈😎

Happy Sunday to you. The pics I saw of 1587 had it all decked out for Christmas.🎄 Lots of pine, garland and red roses inside and outside. Whoever decorated did a great job! I did enlarge the bill you posted – no wine/drinks which is another $40-50, no appetizers and a long wait credit for two people.😲 All that would have easily been at least another $100. When you go, have it all!!!

I think the Chiefs will be all pumped up for this game.👍 I hope they start quick and keep on going.🏈

Enjoy the game tonight, I will be cheering with you. Hugs to you and Poppy.🤗💖

@shoelady60,

Good evening and thanks for the Team shout out not feeling it tonight. Still not over yet. 😎

I will see if I can get some pics of the Christmas Decor of 1587 I know it is beautiful. 🎈

Enjoy your evening we are cold so I am just going to keep busy. 😎💕

Good morning in California and Happy Holidays Kitten to you and your family. 😎🎈

Have Yourself a Merry Little Christmas
Song by Carpenters

Christmas future is far away
Christmas past is past
Christmas present is here today
Bringing joy that will last
Have yourself a Merry Little Christmas
Let your heart be light
From now on our troubles
Will be out of sight
Have yourself a Merry Little Christmas
Make the yuletide
From now on our troubles
Will be miles away
Here we are as in olden days
Happy golden days of yore
Faithful friends who are dear to us
Gather near to us once more
Through the years we all will be together
If the fates allow
Hang a shining star upon the highest bough
And have yourself a Merry Little Christmas now
Here we are as in olden days
Happy golden days of yore
Faithful friends who are dear to us
Gather near to us once more
Through the years we all will be together
If the fates allow
Hang a shining star upon the highest bough
And have yourself a Merry Little Christmas now

Good Morning Peeps and welcome to the HSN Community. 😎🎈

NATIONAL GAZPACHO DAY

NATIONAL PAWNBROKERS DAY

Each year on December 6th, National Pawnbrokers Day pays tribute to a profession that provides a valuable service to their clientele. Those who are in need of cash funds and also those looking for a reasonably good deal seek the services of pawnbrokers.

NATIONAL MINER’S DAY

SAINT NICHOLAS DAY

On December 6th, Saint Nicholas Day recognizes the third-century saint who became an inspiration for the modern-day Santa Claus.

MITTEN TREE DAY

On December 6th, Mitten Tree Day celebrates the gift of warmth. It’s a day to collect mittens, hang them on a Christmas tree, and then hand them out to those in need.

Those who live in cold climates understand the necessity of mittens. This winter clothing item is essential for keeping the hands warm while outdoors. Unfortunately, however, there are many children around the world who are without adequate winter clothing, which includes mittens.

NATIONAL PLAY OUTSIDE DAY

The first Saturday of every month is National Play Outside Day. This National Day presents opportunity to remind everyone to get outside and enjoy the fresh air through play.

Skywarn Recognition Day

The observance recognizes the vital public service contributions that Amateur Radio operators make during National Weather Service severe weather warning operations. It also strengthens the bond between Amateur Radio operators and the local National Weather Service.

Around the country, nearly 290,000 Skywarn® weather spotters volunteer their time. They identify severe weather that could potentially affect life and property. Spotters warn the National Weather Service of the threat of thunderstorms, tornados, and floods.

Skywarn® spotters complete training through a variety of formats and communicate through amateur radio. As members of their community, they’re vital resources both locally and on a national basis.

NATIONAL MICROWAVE OVEN DAY

On December 6th, National Microwave Oven Day honors one appliance that changed how we use the kitchen.

Quite by accident, self-taught American engineer Percy Spencer discovered a way to heat food safely with microwaves. While working with an active radar in 1945, he noticed a melting chocolate bar in his pocket. The high-powered microwave beams created a heating effect ideal for cooking. Spencer deliberately attempted cooking popcorn with the microwaves. Next, he tried cooking an egg. Both the popcorn and the egg created dramatic results. However, the popcorn resulted in success, unlike the egg. The egg exploded in his fellow engineer’s face! However, we can cook eggs in microwave ovens. Try poaching one.

Yesterday was a day I wouldn’t wish on my worse enemy. First of all the contractor was sitting in his vehicle near our home and I thought it was someone visiting our neighbor. I had no idea it belonged to the contractor. I was all set to go out to tell him to move his vehicle to make room for the workers. When he left the vehicle it was to tell me that the men were running late and would be at our home early afternoon. He then left to get the accessories for the shower. Why he sat in his car for over a half hour and not bring the items with him is a good question. But he did return within an hour. Before he left, he asked for a check and the amount he quoted brought the total to above the original agreement with the owner. There has been no work on the bathroom except for me moving things out and cleaning. I did not give him a check, nor was I about to. What I did discover is that the owner never told him that the thermostat could be moved as well as an intake valve for the A/C that was in another location. Thus the bathroom could have been enlarged. The tile for the shower looked altogether different on a computer and cell than it did in a picture that was sent to me later. I am not in love with the tile but am willing to work around it. However, the owner also included a picture of the vanity and I told him it was not my taste. Actually, I hate it. I never made it to a showroom because the business was over 50 miles one way. The other reason is that I was told they were looking for a place in our area and just a month ago I was told that they will be in Sarasota. That showroom is still coming together and all of a sudden I see a picture of a vanity that is horrid.. The mirror going over the vanity is small and is just a mirror without a frame. I also mentioned to the owner that I did not like the vanity. I suppose it went in one ear and out the other like everything else.
