Forever Healthy, Happy and Grateful!

Holy Cow! To-day is Friday, January 30th--It is --7-30am--cold---  not snowing--yet-and I see "daylight " just peeping over the fence here.-- The wash is in -- Lopez down here with me--in his chair--asleep---I hear we have an extreme cold warning --outside-- minus 30-C--The poor car eh--sitting out there in the cold!

Son #2, the Air Canada Pilot, is in Tel Aviv--has sent a few pictures already--It was an 11 hour flight--3 Pilots--The first picture is of the beach there--

I must do my "housey" stuff--but I shall return as soon as I turn on the washer--and make a coffee--

        And I Am BACK-with -A few Blasts from the Past--
        Santa and I----
--
        Above-Son #2--Himself---Son#3 and son#4
Below--  My Gramma and My Grandfather
The boy sitting in front with the dog is my cousin, Gordon
        So many memories--
It is a brand new day-- as new beginning--We CAN be STRONG--if we try--#1. Worrying can be controlled
    #2--Anxiety brings anxiety and 
    #3--Turn over a new Leaf-
Lots to do to-day--I hope it will not be one of those 
"crying" and "Sobbing" days-- I must be strong--face to-day-- with 

"strength--"

  1. Good morning, Lynda! Yes to the coffee! It’s “magic” bean water! We are in a deep freeze warning in Ohio tonight. Not fun! We should be with Matt. Looks so nice there. I don’t fly so that wouldn’t work. I hope you have a fabulous Friday! Stay warm! Hugs! Hi sweet Lopez!!

  2. Good Morning, Lynda! Love how you get up and get going every morning. Sometimes I feel like you get more accomplished in the early hours than I do the whole day! Hope you’re staying warm and thank you so much for this blog. ❤️

  3. Happy Friday Lynda,
    The beach in Tel Aviv looks wonderful, especially when we are all the throws of cold winter temperatures. It's 1 degree F here and we are supposed to have frigid temperatures all weekend.
    I bet little Lopez hates going out when it's this cold. Poor guy.
    I hear you on the car being out in the elements without a garage. Pain in the rear to clear off the snow and ice when going anywhere.
    Hope you have a wonderful day!

    Hugs,
    Jackie

  4. I'm back, Lynda.

    Love the blasts. There are 2 couples in the photo with Gordon. Are they your maternal and paternal grandparents?

    Son #1 is absent from lots of photos of your sons.

    Strength comes and goes. Things that help are coffee, naps, music, loving on our pets and other things to think about that we love.

    Worrying? That's using your imagination to create something you do not want! Focus on the best outcomes.

    Gotta go. 'Becca needs to shop. Her surgery to remove the large kidney stone was complicated. More stones were found. She must have another surgery in 2 weeks. {{{HUGS}}} Love, Maggie

  5. If you are feeling Healthy, Happy, and Grateful today (like the theme of your blog this morning), I think you will have a great day even if the temps are freezing! Staying positive and upbeat and enjoying the life you have now is how to make it through another freezing day! And it is bitterly cold here too....so my advice is to myself also! :-)
