Such A Joy !

A Spectacular Surprise

Yesterday

Came to me

WHITE MOUNTAIN LILIES

WHITE ROSES

HYDRANGEA

and

Orchids

Good Morning Morning

and

what a great morning it is!

Ever had one of those days?

Yesterday was that day for me... when phone calls to attend to business just tried to

"tick me off", "raise my blood pressure"

and

other wise just

want to make me

throw my phone in the pool!

Just when I thought after

being transferred 5 times by good

ole' Cigna Insurance

and then

being hung up on BY CIGNA INSURANCE

ON THE 6TH TRANSFER OF THE CALL

that I could not take not one more

thing

><

The door bell rang

the little ones announced

"INTRUDER, INTRUDER"

by their wild barks

and running in circles

(whether in complete joy or guard dog attempts I still am uncertain)

I opened the door

to an ever so cheerful woman

from

Kikilis Florist>> 727-937-3235

here in Tarpon Springs

holding

that breathtaking

arrangement

for

ME!

I was overwhelmed by its

beauty

and

the fragrance

was

intoxicating

and

my "state" was immediately

CHANGED

right there on the spot!

I could barely contain myself

as I ran out here with flowers in hand to see who in the world could possibly

have managed

to

surprise me so

at just the moment

I needed to be surprised

and

delighted!

As my heart was filled

so was my senses

as I read the most

beautiful card

from my dear friends from so far

away... (thank U, I am so grateful)

and

I realized a tear was falling from my

eye

as my head was filling with the marvelous

sights and aromas

of

my absolute combination

of

white roses and white mountain lilies

on

a day

that I sure did need the love

along

with needing

to shift my focus

allowing me to change my state!

WOW

and

thank you seem like small words

for such a tremendous

and

delicious surprise.

Friends are marvelous, and then add to that

that somehow they just knew

that this day

yesterday

would be one where if it could be frustrating

if it could be aggravation

and

if I could be stressed

(which is not easy for me to be any of the above)

Then oh boy, what a day for that door bell to ring

with a pleasant young woman

and

such a sight in her hand!

I then had a conversation with a young man

named Jared Robb

about health insurance

and

he was so knowledgeable

it was frightening.

He did not try the usual

"let me sell you the farm and the chickens"

or

"no you are not eligible cos you sneezed in 1994" routine.

He was more knowledgeable and professional than any insurance person I think I ever talked to in my life

and

he did not put me on hold, he did not hang up on me,

and

he was quite amazing.

I believe

he has answered the questions

and

found the solutions

I JUST THINK

I MAY HAVE NEW AND BETTER

HEALTH INSURANCE COME

THE FIRST OF NEXT MONTH

THANKS TO THIS YOUNG  MAN

I will keep you posted on that one

before I share his phone number with you.

haha

But

for today

I have a doc appointment scheduled

they called to remind me,

prompting me to ask,

"uh oh, am I sick"?

which was met with great laughter by

their office and the reply,

"No Dr Showalter, It is just a regular check-up"

So

I feel much better about that.

AND

so

I will sit and enjoy

the most magnificent smells of my flowers

until time to visit and make my doc laugh

while being told

I am just fine

and

then return home to the 4-leggeds

and to a home

filled with fragrance

thanks

to my dear friends

who surprised me greatly

on a day

when I sure needed to feel the love.

I might just add,

that shift in focus also probably saved me

from having to buy a new phone

as I was just about ready to throw this on into

the pool after being hung up on!

Enjoy friends

Smell and take in their beauty

I'll share them with you.

Remember today

no matter what comes your way,

try to hold onto YOU

to the smells of the flowers

and

the knowledge that you have friends

who will stand by you

and

those others out there that will hang up

will transfer and other wise

aggravate you...

Are NOT worth the time it takes

to shift your balance.

I just am thankful

the 4 leggeds announced that the door bell rang

and

just imagine what may be on the other side of that

door

So then

walk out the door

when the pressure is too much

maybe

just maybe a friend is standing there, or has sent you a message on the wind

or mountain lilies await you!

The fire is burning and its embers are hot, the sage is filling the air, with thoughts for all who enter here.

Blessings on the winds.

Walk In Beauty,

DRSES
