NATIONAL WATER A FLOWER DAY

National Water A Flower Day is recognized each year on May 30 to remind us the importance of caring for our garden plants.

National Water a Flower Day also offers an opportunity to care for the gardens of those who may be homebound or in the hospital. Take the time to visit a friend who may need some cheering up by bringing them some freshly watered flowers. Flowers and plants always brighten any mood, so share your hard work with family and friends!

NATIONAL MINT JULEP DAY

Mint julep is often served in traditional style using silver or pewter cups. Traditional mint julep requires frost to form on the outside of the cup, which means the drinker must hold the cup at the bottom or top edges of the glass. Today, mint juleps are most commonly served in a tall old-fashioned glass, Collins glass, or highball glass with a straw.

Once in a blue moon.
We say it all the time without thinking… once in a blue moon something rare happens, something unlikely, something worth waiting for.
This May 31st, the Blue Moon rises. The second full moon of May, and the next one won’t come until December 2028. Genuinely, actually rare.
And here’s the bit not everyone’s talking about: it’s also a micromoon. The most distant full moon of 2026. Farther away than usual, slightly smaller, slightly dimmer.
You probably won’t be able to tell just by looking.
Like the most significant moments in life often don’t announce themselves with noise. You feel them before you see them. You know before you can explain how you know.
⋅⋅⋅──────⋅✤⋅──────⋅⋅⋅
So, the Blue Moon.
A once-in-years opportunity to ask for what you wouldn’t ask of an ordinary moon.
The real intention. The one you’ve been carrying quietly, not quite daring to put into words because it felt like too much… The unlikely thing. The deep thing.
Once in a blue moon… you ask for exactly what you actually want.
⋅⋅⋅──────⋅✤⋅──────⋅⋅⋅
So between now and May 31st, I want you to think about what that is for you.
Write it down if you need to. Sit with it. And, when the Blue Moon rises… offer it up. Mean it completely. Let the rarity of the moment hold the weight of the asking.
The moon has been keeping secrets and holding wishes since long before any of us arrived. She knows what to do with yours.
Blessed Blue Moon, loves. May she bring you exactly what you’re ready to receive.
🌕💙

Jesus to a Child
Song by George Michael

Kindness
In your eyes, I guess
You heard me cry
You smiled at me
Like Jesus to a child
I’m blessed
I know
Heaven sent
And Heaven stole
You smiled at me
Like Jesus to a child
And what have I learned
From all this pain
I thought I’d never feel the same
About anyone
Or anything again
But now I know
When you find your love
When you know that it exists
Then the lover that you miss
Will come to you on those cold, cold nights
When you’ve been loved
When you know it holds such bliss
Then the lover that you kissed
Will comfort you when there’s no hope in sight
Sadness
In my eyes
No one guessed
Or no one tried
You smiled at me
Like Jesus to a child
Loveless and cold
With your last breath
You saved my soul
You smiled at me
Like Jesus to a child
And what have I learned
From all these tears
I’ve waited for you all those years
And just when it began
He took your love away
But I still say
When you find love
When you know that it exists
Then the lover that you miss
Will come to you on those cold, cold nights
When you’ve been loved
When you know it holds such bliss
Then the lover that you kissed
Will comfort you when there’s no hope in sight
So the words you could not say
I’ll sing them for you
And the love we would have made
I’ll make it for two
For every single memory
Has become a part of me
You will always be
My love
Well, I’ve been loved
So I know just what love is
And the lover that I kissed
Is always by my side
Oh, the lover I still miss
Was Jesus to a child

Peace Out Peeps have a safe evening. 😎💕

Freedom! ’90
Song by George Michael

I won’t let you down, I will not give you up
Gotta have some faith in the sound
It’s the one good thing that I’ve got
I won’t let you down, so please don’t give me up
Because I would really, really love to stick around
Oh, yeah
Heaven knows I was just a young boy
Didn’t know what I wanted to be (didn’t know what I wanted to be)
I was every little hungry schoolgirl’s pride and joy
And I guess it was enough for me (and I guess it was enough for me)
To win the race, a prettier face
Brand-new clothes and a big fat place
On your rock ‘n’ roll TV (rock ‘n’ roll TV)
But today the way I play the game is not the same, no way
Think I’m gonna get me some happy
I think there’s something you should know
(I think it’s time I told you so)
There’s something deep inside of me
(There’s someone else I’ve got to be)
Take back your picture in a frame
(Take back your singing in the rain)
I just hope you understand
Sometimes the clothes do not make the man
All we have to do now
Is to take these lies and make them true somehow
All we have to see
Is that I don’t belong to you, and you don’t belong to me, yeah-yeah
Freedom (I won’t let you down)
Freedom (I will not give you up)
Freedom (gotta have some faith in the sound)
You’ve got to give what you take (it’s the one good thing that I’ve got)
Freedom (I won’t let you down)
Freedom (so please don’t give me up)
Freedom (’cause I would really)
You’ve got to give what you take (really love to stick around)
Heaven knows we sure had some fun, boy
What a kick just a buddy and me (what a kick just a buddy and me)
We had every big-shot Goodtime Band on the run, boy
We were living in a fantasy (we were living in a fantasy)
We won the race, got out of the place
Went back home, got a brand-new face for the boys on MTV (boys on MTV)
But today the way I play the game has got to change, oh yeah (oh yeah)
Now I’m gonna get myself happy
I think there’s something you should know
(I think it’s time I stopped the show)
There’s something deep inside of me
(There’s someone I forgot to be)
Take back your picture in a frame
(Don’t think that I’ll be back again)
I just hope you understand
Sometimes the clothes do not make the man
All we have to do now
Is to take these lies and make them true somehow
All we have to see
Is that I don’t belong to you, and you don’t belong to me, yeah-yeah
Freedom (I won’t let you down)
Freedom (I will not give you up)
Freedom (gotta have some faith in the sound)
You got to give what you take (it’s the one good thing that I’ve got)
Freedom (I won’t let you down)
Freedom (so please don’t give me up)
Freedom (’cause I would really)
You got to give what you take (really love to stick around, to stick around)
Well, it looks like the road to Heaven
But it feels like the road to
Well, I know which side my bread was buttered
I took the knife as well
Posing for another picture
Everybody’s got to sell
But when you shake your , they notice fast
And some mistakes were build to last
That’s what you get (that’s what you get)
That’s what you get (I say that’s what you get)
I say that’s what you get (for changing your mind)
That’s what you get for changing your mind
That’s what you get
That’s what you get (and after all this time)
I just hope you understand
Sometimes the clothes do not make the man
All we have to do now (oh, and)
Is to take these lies and make them true somehow
All we have to see
Is that I don’t belong to you
And you don’t belong to me, yea-yeah
Freedom (oh)
Freedom
(My) freedom
You’ve gotta give for what you take
Freedom (I’ll hold on to my freedom)
Freedom
(My) freedom
You got to give what, to give what, give what you take
Yeah!
You got to give what, give to what to give
May not be what you want from me
Just the way it’s got to be
Lose the face now
I’ve got to live, got to live, got to live
