Kind People are my Kinda People


 One week--and it's Christmas day--but--- really--This is Christmas-- season--and it can be beautiful--- if we want it to be--I do hope  the season warms your heart----and your soul--

OK--Why am I late getting on here--?--because--Big Beau, the German Shepherd, is at the groomers--Lord love a Duck! It is a challenge to get him safely into the car-- and all the way to town, I pray that the hatch will not open, as he tosses and turns back there--We made it safely--just have to get him back home----in a bit--I do not know which is more difficult to handle--Beau---or Himself, who I made ride in the back seat--supposedly to talk to Beau but Himself  was grumbling all the way to town--and he never chatted to Beau--

I must stop at the bank on the way--(never enough money this time of year!)-
--The BIG news--- My weight is DOWN----Lordy Be! ---from 186 the day I saw the heart chugging away----to---180 --hard as I keep seeing  foods that I could devour-I am trying however to help the poor old 81 yr old heart! 

-This week will be busy---  lots to do---  Power outages last evening--very windy--sunshine this morning --(with lollipops)--Ha Ha 
I must get ready to return to get my big Beau, who understands english-as I shall stop at the bank and  load up on money AGAIN---

Try to get a nap in on these busy days-- maybe read a book----and always remember, you are STRONGER THAN YOU BELIEVE---

Dao Paulo, Brazil, here Son #2 is--and a  park Son #2 the Pilot, walked thru--says it is their summer--very hot there now---also said it was a bumpy ride flying over the equator--the cold and warm air meeting-said the plane levelled off once past the equator--and below---  of course--MCDONALDS--
Lotza fresh fruits and nuts

I have no idea what the above is----but it tells you--in  Portugese --(or spanish)-
So---  I must get that dog--- and I shall talk to yu all tomorrow-- BE a STRONG HAPPY PERSON--Get a wee nap if you can---helps yu to stay strong--and kind----

  1. Hope you enjoy your day and wish my bank gave me money...LOL
    Hope Beau recovers from the trauma of going to the groomers....he must have separation anxiety from YOU. I wish I could have a dog.
    Alas, not going to happen unless I move out of the daughters' home,. she has an Australian Shepherd, who is adorable for sure....but it is not like having one of my own.
    Have a good rest of the week...just wondering if you have received your card yet........I mailed it last week. Be your happy and optimistic self............

  3. Kind people are my kind of people. While meditating yesterday (and trying to clear my mind), I thought of a neighbor who abuses her animals (I rescued Lucky from her). I thought, "I wish the world was without abusers of any kind...no abuse of animals, elderly, handicapped, those of different religions and ethnicities...and of course children." I was feeling it so strongly that tears were running down my face. Then the beautiful blue filled my inner vision, and I felt a warm hug around my shoulders. That's all from Source (God), of course. Please don't think I'm crazy...cuz if I am, it's in a good way.
    Precious Beau would rather stay home, I am sure, but his grooming needs to be done. And money? We wish the bank would just hand it out for free, huh?
    2 memes to save today.
    I just need to figure out how to set the talking watch I got for my friend. The instructions don't look too hard. I want to set it before I gift wrap it.
    Sadie has already been at work a bit this morning, and will do more later.
    Will do a bit of shopping, too, as my retirement check has posted.
    Hope your outing...and your whole day goes well, and that you get that wee nap in. {{{HUGS}}}

    1. Oh no--abusing a pet--so terrible!----Our cheque comes in tomorrow--difficult day here with Fred--Lynda

  4. It's Kathy. I love all the food (and McDonald's) photos. Your son does know how to eat when he's visiting other countries. It all looks delicious! I'm sorry you had such a hard time getting Beau to the groomer's. Daisy's only 40 pounds but I can barely get her to her groomer's alone. She'll get in the car but once she knows where she is she doesn't want to get out! Aren't our dogs entertaining! It's warming up some for us - still windy. They are quite sure that it will NOT be a white Christmas - short of a miracle! Have a wonderful day!

  5. I cannot believe how fast this holiday season is flying by! But enjoying it.

    Love that meme. Definitely just doing your best is good enough.

    Sorry you had power outages. It was very windy here, too, yesterday, but we were fine.

    That park has me longing for summer again! But have to get through Winter and Spring. I'd be content w/Spring all yr. round, too.

    Drive safely getting Big Beau.

    Your DS's food looks delicious, as always!

    hugs

  7. Yes, it's almost Christmas! I thought I was done until my husband let me know that he needed two gifts for work tomorrow and some cupcakes.I already planned to make cookies tomorrow. I got it all ready and sat down to eggnog ice cream. I had already been Sadie all day. A nap and a book sound so good! Good for you moving that scale. I am sure mine is moving too but the other direction. lol Love the Brazil pics. Always a McDonald's. lol Hope Beau done well with the groomer. It is a chore getting my two yorkies there so I can only imagine with Beau. My nephew will be here tomorrow night. Super excited about that. The snow is melting here in Ohio and will be good weather tomorrow. It will be 50 on Christmas. Hope your day has gone well and you are resting now!

  8. I like your kind of people, too... kind people. What's not to like? I genuinely want to be one of them, but like most humans, I don't always succeed at it!

    Christmas is all around us (Love Actually reference). I have something every day between now and then, and even a day beyond. Busy, busy, busy!

    Hope you get done what needs to be done, and have a great day (whichever one it is by now... yeah, Wednesday!)

    (( hugs ))
