Life’s trios come easy and hard so I always have a helmet and a hammer and turn my frown to smiles and sing…If I had a hammer because I’m finally going to have a shower and a tub too!
I’m singing you a song today for a prayer and some love!
Happy Fun Fri-Yay My friends,
I’m not gonna lie, it’s been a helluva a month and the hardships have been many BUT I’m taking each moment as it comes and trying to stay present as I forge ahead. My poetry has been a little reflective of not only our world but my days as I continue to face what comes my way. To be honest, I’m tired. I wear my heart on my sleeve and my emotions are on the surface. Thank God for a helmet.
They say life comes in 3’s and it does appear that way but I’m digging out (literally around here) and I’m celebrating some fun things that put the Yay in my day and one of them is Fun Fri-Yay and seeing all of you. Playing with the Emojikus with my Friend Goff James at Art, Music, Photography, Poetry and Quotations is always fun and we have a few players this month which was fun.
I’ll give you a tour of the update of my bedroom and bathroom so far and wait until you see my “No Mow” Lawn! I’m tickled and so is Hunter and Ollie.
Emojikus:
As you may know Goff and I coined Emojiku and invite you all to play if and when the spirit moves you. Thanks to Goff he handles all of the postings but feel free to reach out to me and well and he’ll get them up and out there and link to your post.
I love our comments in our posts because you never quite know where they will take you. See this one from my friend David over at Skeptic’s Kaddish and his AWESOME Emojiku.
Here’s the backstory of how David and I started our Emojiku:
From David:
you know, Cindy, since you always respond to my heart emojis with even more emojis, I sometimes wonder how long youโd go on responding to me if I kept on responding back to you with more emojis ๐ ๐ ๐ โ would we create an infinite emoji loop?!
From Me:
lol.. I know David. Maybe thatโs why Iโm never caught up. ha! ๐
Maybe so ๐
๐๐ผ Emojiku rules
๐ days start with a kiss and hug
๐ Stay loopy in love
ok your turn to play!! ๐ ๐๐ค๐
From David:
๐๐ผ friendly agreement
๐ kisses fly across oceans
๐ hearts burst with sparkles
From Me:
Yes with me and Goff ….. Do you mind if I post it?
From David:
thereโs a site for emojikus? seriously?
sure, I donโt mind ๐
Without further ado.. our Spontaneous Collab Emojiku. TADA…..
๐๐ผ Emojiku rules
๐ Days start with a kiss and hug
๐ Stay loopy in love
๐๐ผ Friendly agreement
๐ Kisses fly across oceans
๐ Hearts burst with Sparkles
Another Fun one my friend Phil at Perkins Designs at wrote after wrote my Hat’s off To President Zelenskky’s post Monday which was so touching is:
I tip my hat to you for your poetic acknowledgment of his courageous spirit, as well as condemning Russian President Putin as a war criminal. Indeed! If itโs alright, Iโd like to share a short poem I wroteโฆ ( It wasn’t only just alright, it made my day. It’s the little things that matter most!)
๐ป A sunflower for sharing
๐ Our hearts through words and caring
๐ฃ To speak aloud
๐ Above the crowd
โฎ๏ธ With peace to guide our bearing
And finally, Goff and Cindy’s Emojiku for the month:
๐ Hearts floating at sea
๐ Ride the waves collecting souls
๐ Sun, Moon, Stars Shed light
๐ Love unanchored drifts
๐ Lost amid the oceanโs dreams
๐ Neath the silver moon
Join in the emojiku fun and share

Construction Update:
Let’s just say, it’s still enjoyable and our team is AWESOME but you best be there every step of the way especially when the ratio is 8 men to 1 woman …. mmmmmuaw. What can I say? My contractor, other half and subs, think everything always looks great esthetically when it comes to placement, as in where outlets and vents should go or how the doors open etc. Just ask a man if the toilet seat should remain up or down. ๐ Your thoughts on this? I’ll bet ya most of the men will want it up and the woman will want it down. Makes sense to me. Ha! Oy vey!
Nothing makes me happier than everyone showing up and doing there job which is no small feat but like I said, I have my hammer. Maybe they’re afraid I’ll use it. ๐คทโโ๏ธ
We have passed our plumbing inspection! Yay! Inspection for insulation is Monday and then we start sheetrock and add doors next week and it will actually start taking shape.
And LOOK ๐…. I have a tub!







My No Mo: Artificial “Grass”
So, we finally have a date for Blaht’s wedding in September and a venue ( I think) and a dress. That is a hip hip hooray! Never mind it’s 4 months away and we don’t have a photographer or music of such, bridesmaids dresses etc but the bachelor and bachelorette parties are well underway. Priorities, priorities. I was thinking it might end up here and who the heck really knows what events might be here so I thought I best spruce up the garden a bit. My stepfather did teach me the 5 P’s. Proper Planning Prevents Poor Performance.
This one area outside my gym where my clients come has been a disaster and we can never get things to grow no matter how hard we try so after much debate about synthetic vs natural and it never growing we took the plunge and decided to Go for it. I know for the environmentalists there is a whole debate on plastics and the air etc but at least they are being recycled and with the absorbent water costs and rationing, every little bit helps.
As you know it rarely rains in California except the day we installed it but that didn’t stop these raining men in doing an amazing job. And look how happy the animals all are including me! I even taught outdoor yoga there the other day. It was awesome and makes my heart sing.








As they say, if mama ain’t happy ain’t nobody happy!
Here’s to Sheereen our Lightening Bug who just said “take care Cindy, don’t stress much, work can be stressful sometimes. Just dance your way outโคโค๐ ”. I just thought of this song when she said it and there is no better time than to dance and sing than now. Thanks Nawaz! ๐
And just one more thing… promise! I just had to share this with you. Remember when I said my mother in law came to visit as a hawk this when my stepdad died? Well we were driving in the car with my mom and my Father in law and he was looking at the brochure of my Stepdad’s funeral and said “Mom died April 10th too 4 years ago”. None of us even noticed that. We all just looked at each other with no skepticism at all.
The next day I went to my friends Dad’s celebration of life and she said “oh how wild, as soon as my dad died we started walking and 3 hawks flew overhead. It was my dad, my mom and my sister. I brought her 3 hawk feathers that day.
In closing, remember life is a journey, take each day as it comes, forge ahead, stay present and stop, look and listen to messages that are trying to make their way to your heart. Listen with your whole heart to the people you love, say no when you’ve had enough and need some respite. Love yourself so much that you can be the light of the world to others.
Thanks truly for tuning in and make it a wonderful Fun Fri-Yay and weekending!

Construction works looks good. All set. Like you always support me with my work related stress. This time, let me say….take care Cindy, don’t stress much, work can be stressful sometimes. Just dance your way outโคโค๐
Oh aren’t you the cutest and thanks for staying up for it my night owl friend!
Thanks a lot.. yay a tub! oh that is so nice of you. I appreciate your love and support and I gotta say I love that Idea! I’m cooking break fast.. (lunch or dinner singing while we talk) Now I’m going to add a song you made me think of to my post so thanks!! ๐๐๐๐๐๐๐
i just added it.. xo
The song seems nice if I had a hammer. So did you dance? You are kind enough for the mention๐ฅบ๐ฅบ
Thank you, Cindy, for your entertaining news!
Joanna
It’s a pleasure Joanna and thanks so much for enjoying it with me! ๐
Your project is looking great! You even got the tub situation figured out! The patio and grass looks really good. What happens when the dog goes out to dodo on the artificial turf? Your video did not show up. :<(
Thanks a lot Dwight! I am really pleased and you noticed ….. so thoughtful of you.
We just pushed it into the wall of the so there is no surround over there so you know maybe extra quartzite for another area which will work out well. So far so good and no one is using it for that luckily as they have other places to go so. Maybe there are no scents there? But you just hose it down I hear. Fingers crossed I don’t have to deal with that. Good to know thanks for letting me know. I just made public. ๐
:>)
Your home is really taking shape, my friend, and it won’t be long until you can enjoy a warm bath in your wonderful tub!! Looks great. And, congratulations also on getting a new lawn outside of your gym. I don’t play golf, but sometimes do enjoy putting practice…looks very nice, and comfortable too! Thank you soooo much, my dear, for your very kind shoutout & posting my short poem on your site ~ much appreciated!!! You are a sweetheart, Cindy, and I wish for you a Fun Fri-Yay & a splendid weekend! Thanks, again. ๐๐๐ผ๐
Yes indeed Phil!!! I can’t wait and I even got a motor so i don’t have to drain the tub and waste water as I’m “prunning” away.. hahah ๐ Oh it would be a great putting spot for sure and you’re right.. it’s sooo much more comfortable than I thought it would be. Oh yiou are soooo welcome Dearest Phil. It was my pleasure truly and every little bit of light helps us with the fight or at least helps us feel better!!! Have a beautiful weekend as well my friend and I’m feeling a shift i hope.. xo ๐๐๐๐
You look very comfortable on the lawn, and I can only imagine in the tub! ๐ It feels good, I’m sure, to see the light at the end of the tunnel, as the construction progresses. Yes, let’s hope. ๐ป Wishing for you a beautiful weekend too, my friend & thanks again! xo๐ค๐xo
Happy fun Friyayyy, Cindy! Seems like you have so much happening right now. The construction is coming along wonderfully it all looks great, as long as Hunter and Ollie are happy the no mow grass seems perfect. ๐โMom died April 10th too 4 years agoโ, this is so fascinating and the hawks, wow.๐๐๐

Love the big window with the green view over your new tub, and the vaulted ceiling is lovely,Cindy! What a relaxing place to take a bath! Enjoy! <3
Glad you like that Cheryl. It is lovely and in a perfect world I would have made a bay there as well which would have solved the platform issue but staying in the exact footprint of the house keeps costs down. Never mind arguing with the town for a variance which would only increase my blood pressure since they would say it would cut into impervious surface. Don’t get me started.. ๐
It really will be lovely dear.. and thank you so much! ๐
No wonder you’re a bit tired! You have a lot going on, Cindy. Wow. I don’t know how you’re finding the time to write poetry and blog. Yikes. The house is going to look gorgeous and the yard already does. How beautiful and inviting. Hang in there and remember to be gentle with yourself and get plenty of rest. Hugs.
Oh Diana, thanks for saying that because I do and my book is sitting like yours is … by my nightstand because, well there are only so many hours in a day but I’m going to work on a schedule later this week after I do just what you said… rest and be gentle with myself so I don’t fall apart. Oh thanks you so much… it will and does but truly is an upgrade and feels so nice. Have a beautiful weekend dearest! ๐๐
<3 <3
๐๐
What a reflective post, my friend. You have a lot on your plate!
Thanks Marsha! I know you know all about that! ๐
Yes, I hope you have a wonderful weekend, my friend. ๐
Thanks so much Marsha!! You too! Happy Sunday! ๐
Happy Sunday. Weโre off to a reunion at our old church in Elderwood today. Wish you lived closer. Weโre looking to find a mobile home we can live in a couple of months each year in the winter or even a place to rent to be closer to our kids.
Thanks a lot.. Oh how fun is that. I do too. Enjoy yourselves. I do too. what a great idea and then you can visit me too!!!๐๐
That would be lots of fun! ๐
So much fun!๐
Awesome Emojikus! So much fun. Nice to see the house project moving forward too. Ah, the hawk. ๐ A big month, dear Cindy! A gorgeous post!! ๐ฅฐ๐
Thank you so much Jeff. They are fun for sure and it’s awesome to watch others enjoy them.
Glad you enjoyed the pictures.
Yes, the hawk very cool.
Indeed…. A big month for sure.
Glad you enjoyed my post!๐๐

Means a lot!

Hey Cindy, Happy Friday to you. As for the toilet seat debate. I always put it down. Maybe those guys didn’t have a mother. ๐ I decided a long time ago that you are the emoji queen. I wouldn’t begin to know how to compete. LOL As for projectsโ Ouch. I am ever so happy to be out on the road again with minimal stress! Take care of yourself, girl. ๐ โCurt
No wonder I missed you soooo much Curt! You make me laugh and cry all at the same time because you get me sooooo well. WOW! And I thought you raised yourself but your mother did teach you well. ๐๐
I know, right!๐
But I think it’s a better addiction than others I could adopt. Haha
Oh man, I gotta say, I’m a little jel jel! Good for you. Keep having fun.
Thanks for caring Curt!~ ๐๐
Thatโs a massive project Cindy. Kudos for getting to this point with your humor in tact and still sharing creative words!! Youโve got a tub!!! And a lawn!!! Noice twice. Youโre well on your way to completion.
Btw, that emoji collab with David is too cute. Love it.
Enjoy the weekend ๐๐ค๐
๐ Dee ๐ Thank you so much for seeing how big it all is and that I was still able to pull off some humor in the mix. Yes, A tub and a lawn.. what else is there. I appreciate your kind hearted words and it was so much fun to play with David.
Feel free to play as well.
I am and thanks Dee. You do the same! ๐๐๐๐
Thanks Cindy ๐๐ฝโค๏ธ๐๐ฝ

Happy, happy FUNyay Cindy! ๐ฅณ๐ฅณ๐ฅณ Girl, first of all your remodeling is coming along wonderfully. I would rather them take their time to make sure everything is done right, so you won’t have any frown marks after they are gone! LOL ๐คฃ๐ ๐ Like you said, if momma ain’t happy, nobody is happy! ๐ฒ Ain’t that the truth!!! And your backyard looks so awesome. I see your dog had to try it out! ๐โ๐ฆบ
You know, we reflect on life in a different way after death. I get a little melancholy too with such realizations after so many losses. But, we are still here, sharing our light with others in any positive way that we can. I appreciate you shining your light on us! ๐ช๐๐ฏโจ๐ก
Happy Fun Saturday now Kym and thanks for your kind heart my friend. It really is going well and I so agree with you. It’s like being mom with 10 children so I seem to be getting through and they are awesome to comply.
Ain’t it the truth if mama ain’t happy… Oh thanks and YES, the animals sooo love it.
It’s so true life has so many challenges and they aren’t always easy as we hold space for those we love and not lose ourselves in the process. It’s a tall order but we one you do so well also. Thanks for sharing that.. it is an honor. ๐๐
Cindy, I got nothing but love for you girlfriend. ๐๐๐๐๐ฅฐ There was so much poetry going on throughout the month and I also loved the way you interspersed poetry with your other messages my sweet adorable friend!
So glad things are looking up and getting done. We would love to see the final result of your luxurious bath revamp! Oh girlfriend, I know you are so excited, mother of 10 children! LMBO ๐คฃ๐๐ Enjoy the rest of your FUNalicious weekend Mommy Nature!!! ๐ค๐๐๐๐
Oh thanks dearest Kym!! Itโs so true I do! I feel like a short order cook, a chauffeur a handyman oh need I say more! Iโm glad you liked my poetry woven in.
I know right 10 more kids and mouths to feed. Ha . Funny you should say we have lunch for them every Friday!-
Keep โem workjnf and happy!
Oh for sure I will .. a before and after!!!
Hugs, laughter and love always!๐
Cindy, your attitude and spirit is so intoxicating. Thank you for throwing a little bit of that over my way. It is FUNyay and energizes me, my sweet Energizer Bunny!!! ๐ฅฐ๐๐๐๐๐๐คฉ Hugs, smooches and here’s to a beautiful and blessed day my friend. ๐๐๐

Thank you so much Ingrid and so happy you liked that. It really is coming along! ๐
I’ll be hitting you up later for an emokiku but for now there’s no reason for the shit to hit the emojiku fan.. ๐๐๐

Thanks Cindy! Getting back online slowly ๐๐ ๐คช
Take it slow and then boom youโre back ๐
Absolutely loved the emojikus! Everyone did such a great job. I honestly don’t know how you get anything done with so much going on- you are one tough cookie! ๐ช๐ผ
Thanks Pooja and they soooo did!
Care to play?
Thanks, I don’t either but I have one helluva support team my friend.
I’ll have to talk about that some time.

Somehow you always manage to crack me up, I guess because you keep such a positive attitude even with the world is caving in around you. I wonder if you’re a Pisces like me; I, too, wear my heart on my sleeve. It’s the biggest part of my wardrobe! Love your posts and you, too, Cindy. Keep on hammering! ๐ท๐ผโโ๏ธ ๐จ
Oh Nancy, thank you so much! I know right… what else are we supposed to do tho right? haahah!
You guessed it.. ding ding ding….
” Pisces like me; I, too, wear my heart on my sleeve. Itโs the biggest part of my wardrobe! ”
I so am… Feb 29th.,.. leap year. and your b.d?
Thanks so much for always being so supportive Nancy!
๐๐๐
I knew it!! I’m the 27th (actually share a birthday with my sister; she’s 4 years older than me!) And my grand baby Colette is the 28th. Gotta love us big-hearted, emotional and do-anything-for- you Pisces! ๐ โ๏ธ ๐
Oh wow! You were so righ one. How wild is that. I love it! We are soul sisters.. I’m the 29th.. I;ll never be 29.. hahahaha
๐ ๐ ๐ You’re 29 in your heart! โค๏ธ
Forevermore ๐
Oh wowโฆ sharing your birthday must come with pros and. Cons Nancy! Itโs a month of love around here! We have lots then too!!๐๐๐
Definitely! It got better as we got older but I remember getting gifts from people saying “this is for the two of you” โ such practical and personal items as a diary or a pair of ice skates which fit only one of us! ๐คฃ
Oh that is too funny!!
๐
Great post Cindy. Thanks for all the up dates. Glad to see you are winning in the house. The bath looks great in place. I have to confess I totally forgot about our emojiku offering ‘Hearts Floating at Sea’. I placed it in the pending box and the rest is history. Multi-tasking is definitely not my forte; and, neither is remembering things even though I make lists and use pending boxes!!!! Stay Smiling.
Thank you so much Goff! Oh I’m glad you saw ours in print hear … I get you totally. So much to keep up with my friend. I’m glad you enjoyed it again.. ๐๐ It’s not mine neither but it’s what I end up doing a lot.
Oh yes the tub is soooo awesome and I can’t wait to use it.!!!
Have a great day! ๐๐

So who lost the kissing battle?
I enjoyed this to the very last. I love that the construction work is proceeding quite well. I’m happy for you, dear. I’m hopeful it will end well. Life can be pretty tough and tight at times during such projects, but don’t let anything pull down your confidence and break you down emotionally. “Stay afloat”. You have hardworking men who are committed to their duty. And, blimey, the no-maw lawn looks decent and cozy to take some yoga lessons on indeed!
Well, i’ve besides just picked a few more jewels of wits: the 5 Pโs. Proper Planning Prevents Poor Performance.
And this wonderful quote:
“Love yourself so much that you can be the light of the world to others.”
That, I’d love to do. โคโค Have a happy weekend and holiday, dear. Drop the hammer a bit ๐๐๐๐.
Hello Dear Lam!
so glad you liked this my friend and you light the world and our pages with yours every time you put pen to paper or words to YouTube.
I love this”
“โStay afloatโ. Thanks so much for that and hearing me. I am definitely doing my best and let’s just say I’m not sinking. I’m actually “sailing” this weekend which is a nice change.
I’m glad you liked those words on the 5 P’s and my works in quote.
I appreciate you and thanks so much! ๐๐
Feel most welcome, dearest. Happy to see you writing and putting smiles on our faces amid all the busyness. You’re a great manager. ๐ โคโค
Thank you so much Lam!!! Didnโt you have a debut? I have to come see the show. It was on my calendar but Iโve had a few things take precedence but Iโm coming.. I bought a ticket! ๐
Oh sure I had it, dear. Welcome aboard and enjoy. Glad you spared a ticket for it. ๐๐
Oh Iโm glad you reserved my spot. I have to jump on my computer. For some reason I canโt get to your post like I can with some from here-:(
But isha comin !!! ๐
Okay dear. I’m curious about that. What’s the issue with my posts? Is there a hitch I need to be alert about, dear? Please let me know so I can contact the Happiness Engineers straight away to have it fixed. ๐๐
Of course you are as would i be. So you, Kym and a few others can’t be clicked to go to your posts only your site and then I have to sing in etc. All of them take awhile to load which I am impatient about as it is with my phone but then I have to click on blogs, can only read and like one, go back do it again etc. Where if I am on my post and you have liked I can click your name and it goes to ALL of your posts. Not sure if that makes sense or not but now that I’m on the computer, I’m heading to you pronto. However, i have lots of messages hahaha and have read NOTHING today yet ๐๐๐๐
Oh, i gather that. Thanks for the info, dear. Was anxious about it. I’ll check on the issue. Always a pleasure to hear from you. โค๐๐๐โค
Funny emoji thread, Cindy. You are emoji Queen! ๐๐๐ปโโ๏ธ Reflective and thoughtful poetry shares from you this month. ๐๐ป Wonderful progress being made at your place. Best wishes on a successful completion (if anything is ever truly “done”). A test of patience, but it will be worth it!
I know it was funny for sure. I actually thought I never know one to stop and he was soooo right lol. I do love everyone’s emojikus as well. Thanks a lot Michele! I’m thrilled at the level of progress too and that it is coming together. You are so right about “if it’s ever truly done”!. As soon as something’s done we start back to the other side.. lol ๐ But yes, it will be worth it!!! ๐
Great post, Cindy. The construction and no mow grass looks awesome. I always enjoy your stories. โค๏ธ๐๐ค
Oh Thanks a lot Scott!
Glad you’re enjoying them and I’m thrilled!!! it’s sooo fun actually! Creation is such a glorious gift! ๐
Constructions going on pretty well Cindy, ah that hot tub is gonna so goooooodddddd. ๐ Darn I envy you for that hehe… Do share us the picture when its ready ๐
That is one coincidence, now the Hawks are making much more sense and I’m glad you kept the feathers. โค๏ธโค๏ธโค๏ธโค๏ธ
Thanks soooo much Daphny! Yes, I’m really happy it’s turning out well! You will have your day.. I’ve been waiting 4 ever!!! Oh don’t you worry, I sure will!
I know right?! It’s soooo wild and trusting daily messages is so much fun! ๐๐
You’re welcome, Cindy! It was worth all the wait then, it is gonna look so stunning for sure, super excited for you. ๐๐
Some things are a bundle of surprises and the best kinds too I guess. โค๏ธโค๏ธ
It will be for sure!!! Awww thanks girl.
That is so true..
You should come play the Emojikus with us! ๐๐
A pleasure ๐๐
I will for sure I promise ๐โค๏ธ๐

Such a profound post, Cindy. Your emojis are awesome. You are a wonderful and hardworking woman. Nice to see the constructions going on well. Too good.

Oh thank you truly for always seeing me David and knowing the words to fill my heart with tears of joy. It makes it worth some of the sacrifice right now. Bless you and much love always! ๐๐ค๐๐ค๐
Loved the details of your great project. Looks stunning. Tub and lawn, and what not! You seem to be a strict supervisor. Emojikus sound funny. Five Ps and the closing stanza are superb. Have a great weekend ๐๐น๐๐๐
Oh thanks so much KK! Itโs exciting and Iโm thrilled with how itโs coming along. Our contractor is my friend but we are able to separate that and Iโm sure he wishes I wouldnโt come in every day but Iโve caught soooo many things and heโs not paying the bills nor is he here everyday! So Iโd say I keep them accountable ๐
They are fun.. would love you to play if you would ever like too? Aww glad you liked the close. Have a wonderful Sunday night!โค๏ธ๐๐
I could very well guess, contractors are like that everywhere. When I had got my house built, I had faced a lot of difficulties both with quality and quantity of work. There is a saying in our place that a goldsmith steals some amount of gold even when he makes ornaments for his own kith and kin. Thank you, Cindy. Enjoy your Sunday ๐๐๐
Oh yes and I do like that saying and you know exactly what I mean then. This isn’t my first rodeo either. Oh yes and I’m a thorn in their side since I’m the decorator, the manager and the payee and I have to shop the best buy. ๐ค I work too hard and know the value of a dollar. Thanks so much KK ๐๐
You’re welcome, Cindy, always ๐๐
Hugs and love as you slumber off to lala land ๐
Start a day with a kiss and a hug. Gotcha

the emoji blogging fun sounds great and reminds me of a while ago – maybe six years ago – I was texting my mother and her replies were strange and didn’t feel like her. I then called her and told her – and she apologized and said she was driving and had my younger sister reply to me – not a big deal – but guess how I knew? – my mother used to always add a bunch of emojis and my sister didn’t – hahah – at that time – my mother liked the palm tree emojis – and I think this was at a time when we only had a few to choose from – and nowadays the grid of emoji options is almost too many – but hope y’all have fun with that
๐
Thanks soooo much Yvette!!! So funny here you are and I was wondering if everything was ok.. hahahahah. I’m soooo happy to see it every time i walk by and I know right?! I have a tub to lounge in soon YAY is right.
Oh what a cute story that is about your mom. hahahaha. She’s a girl after my own heart. You know me and yes we have soooo many and i still can’t find the right one. hahahaaha.
Well, you can always play if you want!!!! Thanks for the check in! ๐๐๐
I might join in and play along at some time – so thanks for always being so inclusive – truly good energy here !

And I did notice (like Goff) how you used emojis as part of your style and I like it!
Want another quick story?
I think i shared this on a blog post somewhere – but when I was looking for health tips – I scoured the web for a couple ears on and off (long story but I had to rebuild my gut health – I had a seafood parasite and almost no stomach acid – etc) anyhow – this was around 2014 and I found this amazing site with connected blogs from the mid 2000s. Many of the folks were sharing their experience of healing from parasites and had separate blogs.
So they were all inactive and maybe they stopped around 2009 but the first big takeaway was how powerful of a resource that site was! Omg! And so you keep this in mind too – years from now folks will
Walk with you via your videos and various folks will soak up some of your tips and advice – it reminded me that these here blogs can be far reaching !
The second takeaway is the little tidbit I wanted to share as it relates to emojis –
One of the ladies – think it was the head coordinator of the site because she used do samples with her expensive microscope -and stopped doing that
Anyhow – I read this post from her with an apology –
She apologized to her readers because for months she had putting in the code for what she thought was a smile face (this was befor we had icons) and the keys she used was actually for the tongue sticking out emoji! she cracked me up
So all the time she thought she was sending people this ๐
It was this ๐
Hahahaha
We sure have come a long way with emojis
I hope you do it’s easy and fun. Goff is the Haiku King.. and me…the emoji queen I suppose.. ๐. It would be fun if you played if you’re up to it. Sometime.
I think I might remember a bit about this post but that is remarkable. What a story. Can you send me the link on that post. How horrible that must have been but how great to find resources here. I have a client 26 that suffers from gut issues and it is so awful and we’ve tried everything and it’s been years. So sad and debilitating at times. No specialists, drs etc have been able to do anything about it.
Good reminder that when our light goes out it is just reaching some people which is a really great thought.
That is so funny about the the coordinator with her fancy dancy microscope and bells and whistles using emojis and then the wrong one at that. That’s a great story. I do make those mistakes as well. ๐๐๐คช๐๐คฃ๐คฃ๐๐๐๐
Thanks always for your great stories that always leave me motivated and laughing. ๐
Well thanks for having posts that illicit stories!
And regarding your client – whew – I am not surprised that docs cannot help her – because our medical system has strengths for certain things (breaks, stitches, etc) but really fails when it comes to gut health (going back to medical school and what they are taught early on- it all relates to big pharma having their hands in the entries system)
—
And I do have a few suggestions for your client (and so sad that she is so young and has to wrestle with this !)
I am sure you have given her our seasoned feedback and so if his is a repeat just disregard it –
But she should immediately consider getting off the “unholy trinity” – which means get off all grains, no sugar or HFCS, and NO industrial seed oils (canola, vegetable, etc) – those three things need to be removed –
And he other tip is she needs to find a balance of supplements that will rebuild her bio terrain – and while everyone needs basics like a good mineral blend (ie – a good cal, mag, zinc and d3 blend) and a good b-complex – some folks need little supports like thymus glandulars and need to restore their gut flora and adrenal glands.
So your client might have had assaults on her health since she was in the womb. Or if she had a lot of antibiotics during her early years (like I did) she had the bio terrain breakdown slowly progressing for many years – and so rebuilding the body will take time.
Here is something for your client to Maybe check out (if not – no worries!!)
The site is that might offer her some fresh tips — https://morgellonspgpr.wordpress.com/all-articles/

Snippet from the terrain post:
“Everyone has heard of Louis Pasteur. He is considered the father of the โGerm Theory of Medicineโ and he invented the process of pasteurization. Pasteur said that โgerms cause illnessโ and we have to attack the microbes. Amidst a group of physicians and scientists, Claude Bernard made the statement: “The terrain is all; the germ is nothing,” and then drank down a glass of water filled with cholera and didnโt get sick at all. When Pasteur was on his death bed he said “โฆthe terrain is all” but no one listened, saying heโs a raving man, dying and this final statement of his was ignored”. For more information on this see this link called โThe Lost History of Medicineโ and you will find it to be a real eye opener, I cannot vouch that it is all true, but I tend to believe it and my current experiences are proving this out. The article also talks about Bรฉchamp who has been expunged from medical history, too bad. Also, for a very, very fascinating read see this article titled simply โTerrainโ (astounding read, honestly, if nothing else read this article – https://www.cancersalves.com/articles/physiological_terrain.html).
Thanks so much Yvette.. you ended up in spam.. ๐ฅด
Oh man, spam!
