Team TLC movie night – Lillian’s choice: “Frozen II”
Lillian says, “Good, liked the songs and music, favorite character is Elsa, funny in some parts, emotional, and suspenseful.”
I say, “It was okay. Glad I watched it with Lillian.”
Thomas watched it, but has nothing to say.

Not as beautiful as cloud photos … Yet, heavenly for the taste buds. Coconut Bliss Sweet Cherry Amaretto, that’s some good stuff.

The Romano Duo came for a visit! YAY!!! ♥️♥️♥️ They were delivering a ton of Lillian’s foods my mom still had at her place. They stayed downstairs just outside the front door and we sat on the patio upstairs. It was great fun to chat with them!

8 years in the making …. Team TLC – Thomas, Lillian, Camilla … 3 family members …. 4 published books …. There are more to come. However, I need to take this year to press the reset button, for my physical health and for the emotional health of Thomas and Lillian. We’ve drifted from the Team in our Team TLC; which I know will happen as they get older. Yet, I’ve let vital areas slip by the wayside over the past 4 or 5 years, especially this last year.
One major struggle is about to end for us. Once that gift is showered upon us, the rebuilding of Team TLC begins. Of course it will look and feel different than when Thomas and Lillian were younger, and that’s the beauty of it, tempered with the longing of the way it used to be.
I get the feeling the next book will be authored by all three of us. We shall see. I never really know until I become focused on the book’s creation. xoxo
There were days
She could see no reason to continue
There were days
Shrouded in darkness and despair
There were days
Bubbling with joy and love
There were days
She knew the reason to continue
These were the days
The 18,250 days of riding the wheels of her life.

Creating more mini poems and messages to hide in Words of Alchemy. Tedious Yet, there’s nothing like the feeling when phrases come together for a perfect fit. 🖤

Thank you to Lynne for this lovely review of Words of Alchemy …
Just finished reading this review. Now I have liquid gratitude leaking down my cheeks. To say I am deeply grateful, does not do justice to how thankful I am for this lovely person taking the time read my book and write such a beautiful review. Thank you, Lynne!
“This book is filled with inspiring, heartfelt, warm, consoling, touching and thought provoking poetry which will warm you to the core!
I honestly think this book of poetry would be an amazing self help book with a ….

Something I find deeply relaxing. Not just a nearly too hot, epsom salt soak. That paired with this ….
The sound of the water as it fills the tub, the sound of the water as I ease into it, the sound of the water when I move around, the gurgling sound as the water drains through the overflow, the plopping sound of the water as it drips from the faucet landing in the tub water, the smell of the water, the silky feel of it against my skin, the feel of the tiny bubbles as they glide across my legs, and finally the sound of the water as it drains from the tub. Ahhhh …. off to dream land now.

Seriously, y’all! I had just cleaned it, the water was beautiful and clear, I went in to check it, eating said chocolate chip peanut butter cookie, leaned over the tub as I took a bite, and there it went. A mid-size crumb, smack down into my pristine, beautiful tub of water. I mean. Who does such silly crap?

Beautiful walk with Thomas after dinner … I just love everything about honeysuckle! So yummily intoxicating! Plus, this area of the trail is lined with it. I got a honeysuckle buzz! Ha! ♡

Team TLC Movie Night: Thomas’s choice – “Black Panther”
Thomas says, “It was good.”
I say, “Another I enjoyed watching with Thomas. Beautiful scenery in this one. Next up, Spider-Man: Homecoming.”
Lillian watched her own movie. The Marvel movies don’t interest her.

This morning.
Cloud update … HA!

That was invigorating! Went for a walk, in a new to me place. It’s as if each step was an infusion of nature’s energy. Along with the sound of the crunch of the rocks, gravel, and dirt, I feel rejuvenated. Plus, found some huge love along the way.

Cloud update … Ha! First two photos taken an hour ago. Last two from this morning. The wind was blowing so hard, the camera wouldn’t focus.

Cloud update …. We had a clear sky yesterday, until late afternoon. They’ve returned.
