Printesa, I am so glad you listen to your inner voice. I have never known mine to send me in the wrong direction. It has become a magical life ever since I just started trusting in it. The more you listen to that voice, the less you can turn away from it. My choices are so easy now, because they aren't full of self doubt. My stress is very minimal. If only I had know to trusted it more when I was much younger.

Well, even from afar, I am working on my (negative Nancy) cousin. I call her on days when I am very happy. I want her to hear what happy sounds like. Yikes, this is going to be a longer challenge than I anticipated. But, I am determined to break through.

Cousin has Osteoarthritus in her hands. She is just now developing nodes or bone fragments in the joints and little nodes that will cause her fingers to twist in time but with work she can delay that progress. Her mother had it as well.

Today after I research for 2 days, I finally had some exciting news to give her about her Osteoarthritis -- lots of new things for her to explore to arrest its progression. I was even thinking I'd fly her to to LA where they are doing stem cell injections. New is how beneficial Red Light therapy, for deep tissue penetration in hands to delay this progress and minimize pain, while still in the early stages.

So here is me: "Bounding off the walls excited." Heck I'm ready to book a ticket.

So here is Cousin: yeah . . . but if this was so good you'd think I'd have heard about these things.

This is what I hear: Wa WaWa WaWa

What do you do when you are more invested in someone's health more than they are?

I just wonder when was the last time she actually laughed out loud?

When did her eyes light up because she was really excite or happy.

I really am not sure.

I'm going to see that one day and it will be so great.

Sorry, I don't have photos of either houses or gardens. I'm rarely tale photos. There is only me here so not really anyone to show them to if I did. There are no personal photos in my home either. Can't figure out why I have no storage in my Tablet.

Aw Tiffany, I’m sorry to hear this. I know your personality and it probably is bringing you down 💗 remember to adjust your crown. You HAVE made her glow and laugh, so we know it’s possible! I remember and you are putting yourself forward for her with the most passion. She’ll either take it or leave it, that’s more than perhaps most have done for her in a very long time. Stay on the path but try not to let this incident get the best of you 💗. I think some people just don’t like to or don’t know how to accept kindness and care? My step mom is the same way, I try and try and then out of the blue she’ll surprise me with a “receive”, then we just move to the next block on the hopscotch board lol. I’m not good at describing these issues but I hope you know what I’m saying 💕

Printesa, I so would love to relax today! I actually woke without coughing too much so maybe my congestion is on its way out. Yesterday was a long day and I was a bit worried but I tried to go slow. Today I’ll be at Lowe’s schedule but only a half day :). The kittens have found the hallway and are running marathons! Lol.

I’ll look at air purifiers today especially for our bedroom bc I know it’s inevitable that we’ll always have the kitties and that cannot be good for our breathing either. Thank you Printesa for reminding me of that 💗 also I was thinking of putting together two framed glass covers for the outer cubbies in the hutch. I can always construct something just hoping it will look ok? Or make them and if they do not look ok, then use the framed panels for a stain glass or something stick film? Connecting them will be the tricky part though I fear. The middle door was made for the hutch so it fits correctly. I may can hinge them on not sure?

I’m here, had a double dip day! Scheduled for work on a half day then got home to sit and blow my nose lol and work called, no closers in both our departments. Well, I do live close to work which was intentional doing by myself but sometimes bites me. Took a power nap, got some things fed and swept here then went back to help close the store. Kind of important for the openers at 5:00 am which I would not trade for the world!!! Printesa thank you so much for checking in 😚 wasn’t too bad, let myself get overworked a few times but had a pocket full of peppermints that got me through on my cough which is still hanging on a little but not from deep down under like a few days ago 💗

For you vicarious tea drinkers out there… Time to get out your fancy tea cups! I came across this post on a FB thread… so sharing it here because I quite like it. And my second amaryllis blossom is opening up spectacularly.

Amaryllis, Happy. That’s actually a scone, although it was rich enough to have been a pie! First load of laundry on the line and of course it got sprinkled on. Hopefully it dries by tonight.

Big news! The Mooz jumped onto my lap and STAYED… she must’ve been there for at least five minutes. And I was outside as well. There were two patio chairs, side-by-side. I patted the seat to get her to jump up on the one beside me but…she opted for the lap! She sat there and looked around for a good long while, as opposed to jumping right back down, which is the usual scenario. It’s only taken four years…🤪👏👏😻
