Just Call Out my Name, I'll hear it on the winds

The View As I was going

UP

in the Elevator

at

The Embassy Suites Hilton

Arizona

Another quick week is off and running this week

but

still finds me down

with this back of mine.

I'm counting the blessings though

and

working not to be discouraged

as

I drag myself from the bed long enough

to sit outside and enjoy this 90 degree sun

that should be coming up to greet me in a couple of hours.

Sandy and Stuart tell me of the updates

next door as they still look like

chimney sweeps with each break

I will rise to meet them

for my updates

but now unable to have lunch prepared

as the pain is just out of hand.

The windows have been repaired/installed

One dumpster filled and another is being filled.

Progress is being made

as Stuart's lifelong friend Ted is here each day.

I think today is the

"crawl on the roof day"

and

I am rather glad I won't be up to be witness to that

with the phone in hand just in case I have to start a call with 9 1.  And knowing how much Stuart loves heights and roofs and such.

`I can also let you all know

of the vast cleanser collection we own

NONE OF THEM WORKED

FOR SOOT.

BUT

MR CLEAN MAGIC ERASER TAKES SOOT OFF IN A HOT MINUITE

although we all know that to buy enough

Mr Eraser for an entire house much less ceiling

one would have to win the lottery!

Out there in South Dakota Sissy TwoWolves tells me that it snowed and rained like you wouldn't believe last week.

I reminded her that

spring is quite beautiful as flowers are blooming and

 yes

TODAY I'm sending thoughts of sun on the rays to all those out there where the cold weather is still hanging out.

But I'm Thinking sissy is not believing it until she has more than 20 minutes of sun out there!

Sending sun to ya sissy, hope you enjoy it.

Oh yes, the fire next door investigation continues

and

I also will tell you again

Tarpon Springs Fire/Police

"Rocks"

and I believe in my heart that they will not stop

until the perpetrator(s)  caught and brought to

file://swift/ justice.////

Go get em Tarpon PD!

Watching Sandy and Stuart go through this is like watching the Grief Wheel of Elisabeth Kubler-Ross

and

the vicarious trauma is surreal.

It is as though we are all standing in someone else's nightmare, just waiting to wake up

and

waiting to know who could be so heartless and mean, walking over children's toys to burn a home.

Bad things happen to VERY GOOD PEOPLE

and

GOOD THINGS HAPPEN TO VERY GOOD PEOPLE

as

Laura and Mitch came yesterday and brought dinner here; Mitch can cooks chicken wings unlike any other, but that was the appetizer.

Then he made scrumptious blu-cheeze burgers to delight the senses and the tummies of all.

I stayed with the wings though~ nothin Like a

Mitch Wing to get your grin on.

brought it and prepared it! (enough for an army)

What friends/family of choice surround us during times that you need them the most.

Sandy and Stuart were touched beyond measure.

And we were just tickled to pieces.

Thanks family.

“As we express our gratitude, we must never forget that the highest appreciation is not to utter words, but to live by them.” –John F. Kennedy

So then

what are the plans for this day for you?

Dancing through the day,

singing your order at the fast food drive through?

Or just putting your head to the wall with all that is going on in the world?

Perhaps it is time to

STOMP

with gratitude of all that is yours

OWN your day

with all that YOU are and all the any gifts you have to give to you and to those that are deserving of them.

Maybe, just maybe it is time

to re-evaluate relationships

do some housecleaning

and

be sure that those relationships

are the ones that you know are the ones

you choose

be certain

that they are the ones you could call at 230am

and they would answer

and

be cheerful

once knowing that you just needed to talk

and

pour a cup of coffee and listen.

Sending thoughts to all on the winds today,

take best care of YOU

and

those you love.

June 01

sure hope D'Vante passes all those grades; he CAN DO IT! 

(his summer fun is depending on it),

Kamryn and Olivia bring on those A's babies.

School is almost out in VA and MD!

The sun is getting ready to do it again,

I just know it is getting ready to shine here.

I'll watch with coffee from my bed today

and enjoy every minute of it.
