This past week I was " Blog-stuffing". Not sure if it's a word but for now it is! I usually go to my blog and just write โ๏ธ๐. Not always sure exactly ๐ค what my topic is or where it will lead but just go with the flow! The past two weeks I've been saving my posts to Doc's or color notes app on my phone. Today I did the proofing for Blogging Bliss newsletter and it's another wonderful issue! As always Wordsmitty brings great insight on Blogging and tips that are useful! Showcasing Blogs on WDC ๐ so come and check it out tomorrow! Sorry,p Last week I didn't feel great, having argued about how much meds I have to take and the whole foods situation. What is safe to make? After having normal dinner for couple weeks, 2 things didn't totally agree with me. Not terrible but I noticed in the middle of the night on the way to the lady's room! A slight irritation in my stomach. Next morning I had to mention it and she got worried that I'm not healing yet and don't want to set me back. So back to smoothies and pancakes for breakfast with blueberries and bacon ๐ฅ. Tomorrow I'm going to try to convince her to let me make breaded pork chops. It didn't bother me last time! Ugh that's why I didn't write much this has taken over my life and I want my life back! On the other side I had a lot of soul-searching and some crisis of faith. I didn't know much about Pope Francis in the past 12 years or all the good he did. That he turned down pomp and splendor for a simple guest house and sharing lunch with everyday people like janitors and store owners and making friends forever... I was helping to raise our grandkids and learn about special needs to help our family be ok. I was also learning about my Jewish roots and things I didn't learn as a kid. I wanted to be a Nun about 7 or 8, after watching the b/w version of Our Lady of Fatima.( On the late-show on TV) My aunt wasn't happy when I told her. She said " Little Jewish girls can't become Nuns!" That was the end of the conversation even when I asked why. Later in life I learned about Edith Stein a Jew who became an atheist but became a good Nun for the rest of her life! I heard about Pope Francis in passing but until he went into the hospital this spring, I didn't pay attention. I read about him and wanted to pray for him. The Vatican had a story about his health and, I subscribed to the newsletter. Easter I watched the news and saw him with the crowds at St Peter's. I knew his Doctor's didn't want him near crowds... But that's who he was. He gave his all to help others and he brought so much joy to others and not all were Catholic. I watched the Funeral Mass and saved links about who he was. A simple man who loved people and didn't judge. He saw people, not how much money or color or all the things that some people see and keep them apart from others. Rest his soul ๐โค๏ธ |

HI y'all ๐! It's been a couple of weeks since my last post. It was a pretty rough time and I appreciate the ๐ care emojis and those that showed support ๐๐ฏ๏ธ๐ธ in prayer or just giving me some much-needed space ๐ to weather the storms that passed through. We aren't handed an instruction book when we land on this planet! There are guide books like the Bible, Torah, Koran Buddhist and Pagan teachings. Sometimes you still go through the dark night of the soul. Astrology and the planets play their part as well but it comes down to ourselves to figure out our own life and the issues we face! Like thinking just now I lost everything just written because I touched a link by accident! Nope, here it is! So been thinking about making a format for this blog. I took some notes on it and also wanted to make sure the fonts are big enough for everyone to read and trying to figure that out! I've been writing on my phone and don't see it yet! I'll be writing about our life ( the Cheryl and Diane show plus Maxy and Mojo!) By the way Maxy is 13.4 lbs and Mojo is 9! Our awesome ๐ groomer Jennifer who trims their nails and they love, because of her TLC! They are 3 years old now and happy to vote for Posh Pets as the best Groomers on the Mississippi Coast! We are now FB friends forever! Cheryl had her first eye injection today and was brave as usual! We will be keeping an eye on her progress. I have to check on her soon so I'll finish this up! Here on WDC, there will be an awesome contest about the Beatles and I will be sharing the details and links soon. It will be in June so stand by ๐ธ๐ถ๐ฅ and Beatles Merit badges are up for grabs Yeah yeah yeah oh come on! I will be working on my b-item issues! Hope your having a wonderful day and going to share to Facebook as well! It's been a long road but my health is starting to get better. I've followed the doctor's orders and still struggling but taking the " zillion" meds etc to be well and able! Also will still be giving my 2 cents or more on goings on in the world and our country. Did you know our farmers are paying 3 trillion dollars a year to get fertilizer from places like Russia and Canada? And a few more you might be surprised at. Can you imagine spending $1,700 an acre? We did some digging wanting to understand what's really going on with our farmers. One question led to another... Anyway thanks for dropping in and I'll be back sooner than later lol! Will be back in touch here with you folks and a few other places as I can! ๐ธโบ๏ธ๐ปโ๏ธ Drop me a line about the font's and what's on your mind!๐๐ชป๐ผ๐พ๐บ |
