Itโs 4 am and Iโve been up a couple of hours now! My brain kicked on after Fable woke me up to go to the bathroom. ๐ฅด Now, I canโt get it to turn off! Iโve been painting and packing for 3 weeks straight without a day off to rest. But, weโre finally starting to see the end of the tunnel. This downsizing isnโt easy and Iโve learned a lot about myself while doing it. Iโm so ready for this to be over with. In the meantime Iโve had to replace the a/c in the house a few weeks ago. Iโm just gonna say Cahhhh Ching $$$$. Along with my car dying on me while I was driving to work. The clutch went out and with all the expenseโs Iโve had this year it might be a bit before I get it fixed. The estimate $1250. Iโm laying here thinking thereโs a reason why my car quit before I had a chance to sale my house. ๐ค๐ค๐ค Without a way to work now I could lose my job., Iโm praying that doesnโt happen. I had someone contact me about a job I wanted but couldnโt make it because I had no way of getting there. ๐ญ Man, when it rains it pours sometimes. Grab a towel and get back up! You canโt let life stop you and every time it bucks you off get back on and ride it like thereโs no tomorrow. Because it might not be there. Hugzzzz and Love, miss yโallโฆ โค๏ธโค๏ธโค๏ธ |
I read most of my emails I thought and didnโt realize that I was gifted a new yearly membership! Thank you so much! Because this comes to me when I needed a pick me up the most. I was driving to work and 4 miles outside the town I work in my beloved Mustang starts to break down. The clutch goes out by that time we limped 2 more miles. Now, I have no car. To top it off I received a text from an application from 2 weeks ago for tomorrow morning. I tried to reschedule it for Wednesday because my boss is coming to get me and take me to work. Kinda hard to say โHey, is there anyway you can take me to a job interview?โ Then an hour later my son gets a job lead as well. After not having work for over a year! He wrecked (totaled) his car 10 months ago. Not, a good time to have no wheels between us. Iโm almost done getting the house ready to sell. Please, send prayers for us. They are much appreciated, I thank you from the bottom of my heart ๐! Going for now Jeremy and I are going to try and come up with a plan for the next few days. Love yโall โค๏ธ๐ฅฐโค๏ธ |
Not sure if you can afford it but have you looked at rental cars for the short period of time needed, to get to the interview for both of you? |

I hope this finds everyone doing well. Iโve been doing a lot of research and thinking about my future. Iโm planning on selling my house and moving into a tiny home! Yes, a Tiny Home! No, not an RV, I hate those although they are great for camping and temporary accommodations. I want a home and a Tiny Home is my choice. I feel comfortable and confident about my choice. This should help me get my life back on track with my goals for more time with God, Fable, and family. The expenses of owning a conventional home has become more than I can afford and handle at this time of my life. Talk about Fable she just crawled up on my stomach and is wanting attention so, I gotta go. Love you guys. Talk to you soon! โค๏ธ |

Sending a special message for the Secret Ninja gift points that was given to me. Aweโฆ. Thank you so much for the gift points! I just realized that my yearly subscription is coming up and Iโm going to be very short on gift points and may lose it this year. Thank you for the reminder. Hugzzzz and love, Teresaโค๏ธ |
Believing in yourself is the power within oneself, always believe that you can and it shall be. Even if you fall multiple times, never give up on yourself. Get up and strive harder it shall be your greatest achievement. Knowing that you believe in yourself will carry you through anything!

Iโm truly sorry to announce this today of all days, his birthday! I just received an email from Lynn Jones his sister. She hesitated to send it to me. The barrier of bad news. I do understand the wait. On May 23, 2025 our beloved Angus ![]() ![]() ![]() Please join me and sending condolences, your thoughts and prayers as well. I will be sending a formal letter out to the card group as soon as I can get my words together. This is a big blow today.๐ญ๐ญ๐ญ๐๐๐๐ญ๐ญ๐ญ P.S. If you want to post on his newsfeed. Angus ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() |
My condolences to everyone who knew Angus. Legendaryโค๏ธMask - does his sister know what to send to The StoryMaster for Angus's Memorial case? |
Update: Well, the new job didnโt pan out! Iโm at square one again for jobs. Iโm keeping hopeful that God has โGREATERโ plans for me! ๐๐ป In the meantime selling my house, so I can get a car and a smaller place to live in. I need to find something that is energy efficient, low maintenance and TINY. It will only be Fable and I. Besides, I donโt want a roommate or roommates!๐ฅด |
Sis, maybe the series, Living Big in a Tiny House, can give you some inspiration. Whether you have it built or find one readymade, it could be just right for you and Fable. https://youtu.be/7UrZVGJVuRQ?si=1Rz-LkArTFJw3gor |
Thank you everyone for the messages and well wishes for my WdC anniversary! My apologies for being almost a month late. I last wrote on April 18th. It hasnโt been a pleasant ride. Work is literally doing me in. Who would think putting out greeting cards would be exhausting. We change out for each season. We had Easter, Motherโs Day, Graduation and Fatherโs Day all wrapped up into a monstrous 6 weeks and on top of it we had 72 Walmart revisions. We would go in and change out the WHOLE department in two to three days. The whole LR district of Merchandiserโs are an elite team of ladies and one gentleman who did an outstanding job in keeping up with all their own stores and help each other when their store came up for the revision. There was a couple of times that I totally had melt downs on my days off. It got so bad I lost two and half days of memory, I slept the whole time. I have neglected to do much but, work. It had gotten so bad that I admitted myself to two ER visits that scared me. I had a bad reaction to a morphine shot which the 1st ER doctor recommended due to the severe pain I was in. The 2nd ER visit was enlightening. Mind you two different towns, two different ERs and doctors. Iโm done with doctors well at least ER onesโฆ ๐ค๐ฅด I know when I see my regular doctors they will have some questions for me as well as I have some for them. I hope everyone is doing well. Iโm currently looking for a new job one that isnโt so hard on my body. Keep me in your prayers please I need a change. This week is Fatherโs Day push and next week. I will be working 7 straight days this bodyโs not used to it. Hugzzzz and love to you all. P.S. Thank you for the trinket and MB it was a beautiful anniversary y'all โค๏ธ๐โค๏ธ |
Reminds me of the old saying, "Time flies when you're having fun!" However, what you've relayed doesn't sound like fun. Maybe you could try the froggy remix of this saying, "Time's sure fun when you're having flies!"
I suppose that's how some wag came up with the advice, "Maybe we could be like frogs, and eat what bugs us!" Frankly, I don't think I'd like the taste, and I wouldn't want to eat anything, that can eat back.
I pray, that the first part of Proverbs 17:22, KJV, has been a help to both of us, today. "A merry heart doeth good like a medicine: but a broken spirit drieth the bones."
