Hi y'all ๐Ÿค ๐Ÿค ๐Ÿ‘‹๐Ÿ’œ๐ŸŽถ๐Ÿค—๐Ÿ˜ป!
I'm fried like an egg ๐Ÿณ! But wanted to thank y'all for your prayers and encouragement ๐Ÿ˜Š๐Ÿ™!
Y'all rock yah!

So this is my week's goal from the Official WDC ๐Ÿ˜‰ weekly goals!
I will make it back to being more in touch and involved with peeps and groups.

So far I've been well for four days and no morning sickness!

Has anyone watched Analyze this! With Robert De Niro, Billy Crystal and Lisa Kudrow?
About a Mafia Boss with an anxiety problem!
We watched it tonight ( my choice ๐Ÿ˜).
And it had a great cast and lots of laughs.
Richard C Castellani, Bill Macy and one more favorite Tony Bennett ๐ŸŽถ๐Ÿ˜Ž!

So here's my goals! Wish me luck ๐Ÿคž!

9:06 PM Tuesday, just ๐Ÿซง cleaned kitchen and made sure kitties ๐Ÿ˜ป have enuf food and water ๐Ÿ’ฆ ๐ŸŒŠ!
Bedtime but wanted to check in.
I got up 4 AM yesterday to be with my sis to get her 3rd eye injection. It hurt a bit this time.
She has to go till next April.
(I'm adding this part in my blog later, after reading this over! Last month I meant to tell you,we met a nice lady around our age and she was waiting for the bathroom too,at the Retinal clinic.
She wasn't wearing glasses and said she had been coming and getting eye injections there for a year. She was able to see better and drive.
This was really encouraging for us to hear. Sis had to give up reading books, painting and Sewing things.
I'm praying she will be able to do these things again.)

I worked on my entry for the Beatles contest and commented/emojis to my WDC friends and even got a get well c ๐ŸŽต note. Warmed my heart โค๏ธ ๐Ÿ’œ๐Ÿค— and the ๐Ÿ™ prayers and well wishes from my sweet peeps too!
I only have a couple days to enter and hopefully can write โœ๏ธ a couple more to enter.
I was so bummed I was sick for most of the month ( and past year) ... Getting back in the writing riding saddle and staying on the horse ๐ŸŽ ( I pray ๐Ÿ™)
I did post a blog and got much-needed kudos as I wrote above.
Blessings ๐Ÿชป and thankful we are here together!

Good night ๐ŸŒ‰

Hi y'all ๐Ÿ‘‹๐Ÿค  the ride to the Eye injection appointment will be here at 6:30 AM tomorrow!
I'm getting up at four to make sure I have time for meds, clean litter box and everything else!

I may have figured out more ๐Ÿ˜‰ to get myself well this morning.
I've been sleeping on a wedge pillow since January and I think it's making me nauseous when I wake up . Also it puts more pressure on my spine and not good.

I finished my contest entry and going to enter after all .
Glad to be connected but also feel lonely today.

I haven't been able to reach out as much. Glad for those that say hey ๐Ÿ‘‹ to me in their own way with what they have going on.

I miss my buddy and thankful he helped me find my faith again. Praying he and everyone ๐Ÿ™ who needs prayers feel mine today.
Speak ๐Ÿ™Š soon y'all โ˜ฏ๏ธ๐Ÿ“ป๐ŸŽถ๐Ÿ’œ๐Ÿ˜ป๐Ÿฅณ๐Ÿ˜Ž

This was from my weekly goals y'all. Hope you have a blessed weekend!

Mon and today had medical appointments,did laundry yesterday and Walmart today.
Health better but some rough patches through the week.

My NP proud of me for figuring out what med made me sick, when Digestive staff didn't.
My BP is normal and may not have to take med for that!

I didn't get much done on Sea or blog. Going to write in it today.
I wrote something for the BEATles contest but not sure if I'm going to enter it.
Every writer has doubts but mine is a war I fight every day.
I've gone through this most of the 20 years here.
It's irrational but is an obstacle that won't leave!
Today at Walmart,we saw an 80-year-old man sitting in the heat , holding his little dog in his lap. Sweat running down his face.

As we found a parking spot and were talking about how sad it was and we had also been homeless with our grandkids a few years ago.
We felt bad too for his dog .

We found her a ride cart and I said I was going to bring him a five-dollar bill. It was a walk to get back to him, but I got a bottle of Coca-Cola for him and said I'll be back.

It was hot outside and I found him and said " Hi Mister, here's something to get your dog some food. We are poor and have been homeless and know what it's like. What's your dog's name?"
" Rebel" and thank you for your help!" He said with a grateful smile,as I petted the cute brown and white Rebel!
I said God bless you.๐Ÿ™

As I walked back to Walmart, I noticed a van and an older lady. They were living in the van , I could tell. My leg hurt but made it back a little slow. Thankful to be able to help.
Sis said that was awesome what I did.
We we got done shopping,we used our food stamps and spend card from Humana and some cash. For food and kitty litter and food. We had a few dollars on each and thankful we did and could help someone in need.

Have a blessed weekend ๐ŸŒน ๐Ÿชป

Praying for y'all to be safe and have progress with whatever you're working on ๐Ÿค .
Praying ๐Ÿ™ to be able to share more and trust.
Gotta feed kitties ๐Ÿ˜ป!
Any feedback welcomed.๐Ÿ˜Š

I started praying ๐Ÿ™ to more than I have been.
Blessed Carlos A who will be a Saint on Sept 7 th.
Figure it couldn't hurt!
This week found out I didn't have to wait another 3 weeks to be seen by digestive clinic.
We went last Tuesday and after seeing someone else who had no answers to our questions, but agreed " It was a good thing I stopped taking one of the ulcers meds because it made me sicker."

I've been fine since the day after taking it!
To me that's a miracle after being so sick and weak for the past year.


I've been praying for our friend Mike and others also. And for others around the world.

Our granddaughter Kat celebrated her 21 birthday ๐ŸŽ‚ and happy she is doing good!

I'm hoping to have more energy for writing and things.
Sending hugs ๐Ÿค— and prayers to y'all.

As I feel better will write more! And be in touch more with comments and reviews.
I'm slowly working on Sea of good karma item and thinking about the BEATles contest.

Great entries there!
Sometimes I just expect to hop up and feel good most of the time!

There's so much catching up to do.

Thankful for good souls in our paths.๐Ÿ“ฟ๐ŸŽถโ˜ฏ๏ธ๐Ÿ ๐ŸŒ›๐Ÿค—

I was hoping to start the BEATles contest today. I'm 2 weeks behind ( just seeing it yesterday on WDC)

"Are you resting, crying or writing?" I'm asked.

"I don't know what I am right now..."


" Why don't you ever know?" ( Like that's an absolute and happened every time I was asked that.)


Everyday is an argument or disagreement but called " a simple conversation"
That I'm " making more of it than it really is"
That " I'm too sensitive about everything" so she doesn't seem to be able to talk about anything that might upset me ".


She's the victim she thinks.
But in reality I am but don't enjoy the role at all.

Two different people with two different outlooks.



I offered to help find her glasses and was snapped at with" I can do it myself "

I said " I didn't know if was a bad thing to want to help".


So I'm sitting upstairs and not writing what I planned on or not playing my guitar either.

( You said "I shouldn't have bothered you and went to Mississippi and let you stay there. "
Yeah I made an error leaving Washington and coming here. I thought I was helping you and making a good choice. I also felt bad that you were homeless and nothing was working out for you to get a place, and I was trying to do the same.
I didn't want to burden my good friends with having me stay a year or more, trying to get on a list for housing.

Our incomes don't allow us to get our own place without it.
The extended stay studio was running $1600 a month.
Hard to save for deposits etc.
The good Lord Lordess led me to find a close public housing place and 2 months later we had a duplex. This is the third time our rent has gone up but still less than other places and we are thankful ๐Ÿ˜€.
What's your income?
A lifelong reality no matter how hard we worked and trying to make things different.

I battle depression and anxiety daily and at 70 it's gotten harder to " snap out of it".

She looks out for me as far as being careful about what she makes for dinner ( because of my ulcers that are getting better but awful to see in Jan.)

Part of my problem is I'm sensitive to the tone of voice or certain words that trigger me.

I've done 40 years of figuring out how people tick, and my own situations.

Why they do what they do and so on

Many people came to me over the years for advice and support.

Funny thing is I can't always get my tricks to work on me!

I'm concerned about some dear members going through their own stuff and praying ๐Ÿ™ for them.

I'm used to pulling away from people when I'm going through it. I don't like to show that part of my life too often.


I used to think " Everything that happened had a reason!"

Now not sure if that's true or things are random.

Being sick for so long didn't help and dropping to 106 lbs. Tomorrow will find out what it is now.

I started reworking Sea of Good Karma.

Not done yet.

Got an awesome review on this very spot. Hoping to thank her ๐Ÿ˜Š.

I'm stuck in a gear โš™๏ธ that's negative and praying to get out of it.
I can't bring light ๐Ÿ•ฏ๏ธ or good things to anyone,if my candle is dark ๐ŸŒ‘.

I have always believed we are in a spiritual war.
Faith along with action that benefits others and ourselves is the right path to take. It's not the easiest one.


The devil ๐Ÿ‘ฟ๐Ÿ˜ˆ wants us to give up and not even bother doing anything good.

The devil wants us alone and to think we don't matter and no one cares about us.

Some people are more susceptible than others.


There's so much wrong in the world and it's frustrating not to be able to fix at least some of it

I need to find a way out of my own limbo.
To as the Door's sang:
" Break on through to the other side!๐ŸŽถ๐Ÿฅ๐ŸŽธ"

Last week I started another list of members/pals and user names, so can start tagging them with thanks ๐Ÿ‘๐Ÿ˜Š!

Getting more things organized to redo my port here!
I made 3 videos this week.
To see if I was jamming in tune with em!
I was but didn't like how serious and sick I looked in them. Bad camera angles and even though it sounded good and I was surprised at my playing ( after not having access for 3 years)!

I played with
Santana
Smooth
Black magic women and oye como vah.

Neil Young
The Loner
One of my favorites.

Maybe one day I'll write โœ๏ธ about the "B". A good friend I had as a teenager.
We jammed and talked for hours on the wall phone!

I'm going to share this in my blog today.

I figured if folks like it and me cool ๐Ÿ˜Ž!
If not there's a billion other bloggers out there! LoL ๐Ÿ˜† ๐Ÿ˜‚

I know there are folks that do care about me and I feel the same about them as well!๐Ÿ’๐Ÿ๐Ÿž๐Ÿ’š๐Ÿ˜ธ๐Ÿ’ฏ๐Ÿ˜”

Have a blessed week ๐Ÿ™ ๐ŸŒธ

Ok what I do?

Heard " Oh your writing so I'm going to sleep."
I said" what's that got to do with anything? ( I'm writing so you should go to sleep and not bother me? I didn't say you were...)

Man do I miss the days of group therapy! Not even kidding.

Being stuck in the house is hard. I used to go places on the bus/EMX in Eugene by myself. Go shopping, take Ballet ๐Ÿฉฐ. See my " Cool Shrink" Get a Dutch Bros ( double shot mocha, with blended ice, almond syrup and lots of whipped cream ๐Ÿจ!) OMG I really miss those days. Wah !
I'm praying we will make it to Pensacola in a year or so.

Hopefully before we die!

Going to get some lunch.
I had a treat this week. Amy's frozen India dinner with chick peas ,rice , cheese,peas and curry ๐Ÿ›!
Yummy ๐Ÿ˜‹ ๐Ÿคค!
We have to get the car oil ๐Ÿ›ข๏ธ changed this week. Fun times! We make sure the car is taken care of.
Maxy has been waking us up at 6 AM and it's driving us nuts ๐Ÿฅœ! I'm trying to break her of the habit ๐Ÿ˜ญ!!!
Bye ๐Ÿ‘‹ ๐Ÿ’œ๐Ÿฉท
May the wheel ๐Ÿ›ž ๐ŸŽก of fortune ๐Ÿฅ  ๐Ÿ”ฎ being y'all ๐Ÿ˜‰ good things and blessings ๐Ÿ’– โ˜ฎ๏ธโœŒ๏ธ๐Ÿ•‰๏ธ๐Ÿ•Š๏ธ
