BAD LUCK
2020 His cruise was cancelled due to Covid.
2021 His cruise was again cancelled due to Covid
2022 He had to cancel his cruise due to prostate cancer
2023 He is a week away from his cruise and he takes the trash out, slips on ice, breaks his hip.
Sure glad I sold him travel insurance.

SNOW DAY
Not that the storm that went through the Midwest last night dropped a lot of snow here, but it dropped a lot of ice and left everything super slick. So I texted my boss and co workers and said I would be staying home. My hour drive to the office is one I’m not willing to make today.
Hitting black ice and rolling your vehicle once in your life time is plenty for me. I think I’ll stay home and play domestic goddess today!

Now that you are starting to have a better awareness of who you really are;
- Start focusing on the things that make you happy.
- Focus on the things you want to change.
- Spend time doing things that you’re good at.
- Avoid doing things that are not in alignment with who you are.
That is all you really need to start doing. It may not be easy. People will question you and will let you know that you are changing. The ones who truly love you will accept your new journey. You are starting to learn about yourself, who you are and you can proceed to makes plans and goals that are true to you.

MEAL PREP
I spent unspeakable amounts of money purchasing groceries.
I brought it all home and the magic started.
Two Meatloaves
Marinated Pork-chops
Spinach Artichoke Stuffed Chicken
Tex Mex Cornbread Bake
Asian Pork Medallions
Cast Iron Chicken Enchiladas
Fried Rice with Wonton Soup
Then I ran out of steam.
The Mac N Cheese w/Ham will have to wait. So will Swedish Meatballs.
My kitchen is closed.

SHOE SHOPPING
NAPPING
There is something to be said for giving in to an afternoon nap. No alarm, no noise. Just fluffy pillows and a flannel quilt.
This is a thing of beauty!

RISK
THE MOST DANGEROUS RISK OF ALL
THE RISK OF SPENDING YOUR LIFE NOT DOING WHAT YOU WANT
STREAMING
I woke at 1:30am and reached for my phone (bad habit, I know, but a habit non the less). My son had texted several hours earlier, with the link to watch him streaming. I’m sure the snipit of video I watched was recorded earlier, but there was my son, right on my screen. My bad dream washed away, my pounding heart calmed and moments later I was sleeping again. I love my boy.
PERFORMANCE
I watched a video last night of Mayberry singing. The video was fuzzy and the audio was too. But there was my little performer putting her days events into lyrics.
She is a delight! I adore her!!!

MR.FERRELL
I met Mr. Ferrell today hoping I could help him. He reminded me of my boy, so I knew I would like him. Next week, Mr. Ferrell is heading to Canada, he has an important interview there. An interview that he is hoping will change his life. As we chatted, I watched the enthusiasm on his face, I also heard the uncertainty in his voice when he asked me questions. I helped him locate his destination, find a darling boutique hotel close to his interview, I answered the questions and the concerns. I gave some Travel Momma advice and shared some great info so he can make this trip into so much more than just an interview. It was easy to get excited with him, and just as easy to be a cheerleader for Team Ferrell! He is in his mid twenties, and I hope the universe fills this young man’s bucket.
Good Luck Mr. Ferrell

BEHAVIOR
OH MY… YES PLEASE
We stopped in a little gas and sip type place needing a beverage along the way. They were out of my favorite colored can of monster, but they had an interesting tasty looking thing on a stick. So I asked Grizzly Adams what the interesting morsel was, and all I can remember him saying was Sticky Honey Chicken before I said Yes Thank You. He put it in a white pasty bag. I don’t even know how much it cost or exactly where we were…but what I can tell you is that this was no ordinary gas and sip food fare. It was AMAZING! Every bite was scrumptious! I will call this treat Sticky Crispy Honey Fire Chicken on a Stick! Go find it, somewhere off of Highway 65 somewhere between Tennessee and Kentucky!
Good Luck-
