What could you do more of?
I could do more of a lot of things. It’s hard to pick just one. What immediately comes to mind is I could do more exercise and I’m working on that. I found an exercise routine online that works on the belly in a seated form and I’ve started doing that:

What things give you energy?
Hello to you. I am posting a little late. I didn’t get to church this morning as I had trouble sleeping last night. I’m still working on sleeping and being awake. The medication I take before bed is suppose to help me sleep but so far it’s not really doing that! I try to go to bed around 9 pm and am still awake at 2 or 3 am!
Todays prompt is a timely one. I don’t get energy just from food. I get energy from positive people, places and things like music. I suppose you could say it’s a bit of being an energy vampire and an empath. I have been this way much of my life. I think we all are energy vampires- energy beings – in one way or another. We all survive consuming energy be it ambient or solid to live. It’s important to know boundaries and consent. I have been fed on before to the point I near fainted before. The woman that was feeding on me didn’t realize what she was doing and neither did I! I just knew I had to get away from her! I remember breaking out in s sweat and feeling weak.

Which topics would you like to be more informed about?
Hello to you. How is your Friday? It’s nice and cool here this morning. Can definitely feel that fall is on the way! It’s happening fast like the rest of the year had gone. Today is my second day of Evolve 2.0 – a supplement I’m trying to burn body fat. I’ll keep you posted on how it’s working.
Todays prompt is pretty easy. I am always curious about learning more about spirituality and science. Most would say how can you be interested in both of those without one cancelling the other. The truth is the more I learn about science the more my faith is validated! There are things science can’t easily explain and will probably never explain and into this void is a space filled by faith and spirituality.
My brain is only a receiver, in the Universe there is a core from which we obtain knowledge, strength and inspiration.” This quote also resonates with those of us that consider ourselves spiritual seekers today. Tesla indicates that he believed in some kind of source energy that we can all tap into.
11 Now faith is confidence in what we hope forand assurance about what we do not see. 2 This is what the ancients were commended for.
3 By faith we understand that the universe was formed at God’s command, so that what is seen was not made out of what was visible.
What would your life be like without music?
Hello to you. I hope this finds you well. Today I got my latest supplements I’m trying to help me lose weight – Evolve. We shall see what happens.
My life without music would be intolerable. I can’t even imagine a world without music! Music is a big part of how I remember so much. It’s either in the background or in the forefront of what’s going on in my life. Music is an integral part of the multi sensory aspect of memories for me. When I recall certain memories and have trouble all I need to do is pick a song and that helps me.
There is an organization called Music and Memory that really shows how powerful music is to waking up people that have “gone to sleep” in their bodies.
1 Sing to the Lord a new song;
sing to the Lord, all the earth.
2 Sing to the Lord, praise his name;
proclaim his salvation day after day.
3 Declare his glory among the nations,
his marvelous deeds among all peoples.
Write about your most epic baking or cooking fail.
I would have to say my worst baking fail is chocolate chip cookies. When you live in a different climate, altitude, access to different quality ingredients, different stove- it all affects the outcome of what your making. By the time I left Texas, I pretty much had everything down and the cookies were consistently good. I had my fans – my Dad and my exes brother in particular ! When they came to visit they would make a beeline towards the container I used to keep them in! I haven’t baked really since I got here. Just too many calories for one person.
23 He said to them, “This is what the Lord-commande: ‘Tomorrow is to be a day of sabbath rest, a holy sabbath to the Lord. So bake what you want to bake and boil what you want to boil. Save whatever is left and keep it until morning.’”
What are your favorite types of foods?
My favorite types of foods are desserts. I like most anything sweet. Be it a candy bar or a piece of pie. As I age I can’t eat them like used to.
So whether you eat or drink or whatever you do, do it all for the glory of God.NIV: New International Version
How often do you walk or run?
Hello to you. How are you? Todays prompt brings me back to when I used to run track and cross country in High School and the Air Force. I wasn’t the fastest runner but I was steady. I ran slow at first and then sped up towards the end of the races. My knees got bad so now I just walk and that’s a struggle for me because of chronic lower back pain I have now. I go for walks each day in the evening and have to stop about half way because of the pain. Getting old sucks but I refuse to let it keep me down.
This was one of my favorite scenes in The Chosen- Jesus heals the Leper The Chosen https://youtu.be/VL8DThllZAY?si=X5DXm1AdXxS3ZXoQ
8 When Jesus came down from the mountainside, large crowds followed him. 2 A man with leprosy[a] came and knelt before himand said, “Lord, if you are willing, you can make me clean.”
3 Jesus reached out his hand and touched the man. “I am willing,” he said. “Be clean!”Immediately he was cleansed of his leprosy.4 Then Jesus said to him, “See that you don’t tell anyone. But go, show yourself to the priest and offer the gift Moses commanded, as a testimony to them.”
What’s your favorite word?
Hi there. I’m just back from our Thursday prayer meeting and getting groceries. I’m grateful for the gathering today and the prayers for my health by the folks gathered there. Which leads me to one of my top favorite words gratitude. Adopting an attitude of gratitude in any season of life can really make it easier to get through. It’s focusing not on what’s on wrong but what’s right. There have been times lately with the stuff I’m going through that I have wanted to give up. Getting into a gratitude attitude has pushed me through those times.
Give thanks in all circumstances; for this is the will of God in Christ Jesus for you.” (1 Thessalonians 5:18)
“Enter his gates with thanksgiving and his courts with praise; give thanks to him and praise his name.” (Psalm 100:4)
Hello to you, I hope this finds you well. Last nights Bible study was good , there were four of us. I have trouble reading scripture and being able to understand it sometimes. I’m glad we have other ladies there to help break it down.
Today I got to thinking about the probe we sent to the sun. The Parker Probe is the closest thing we have to a door inside of the sun. When I was having my episodes in Texas and spending time outside I felt like I was having a relationship with the sun. Weird I know but during those times everything was communicating with me!
In December 2021, the Parker Probe reached the atmosphere of the sun. Since then, it’s been looping around the sun, drawing closer each time, and sending back tons of data about everything it encounters.Aug 11, 2023

1 Praise the Lord.[a]
Praise the Lord, you his servants;
praise the name of the Lord.
2 Let the name of the Lord be praised,
both now and forevermore.
3 From the rising of the sun to the place where it sets,
the name of the Lord is to be praised.
4 The Lord is exalted over all the nations,
his glory above the heavens.
5 Who is like the Lord our God,
the One who sits enthroned on high,
6 who stoops down to look
on the heavens and the earth?
7 He raises the poor from the dust
and lifts the needy from the ash heap;
8 he seats them with princes,
with the princes of his people.
9 He settles the childless woman in her home
as a happy mother of children.
Praise the Lord.
How do you relax?
Hello to you, how are you doing today? I’m doing pretty good. Had a nice little visit with my cousin Tony this morning. He came over and we had a walk and went over to the Sunrise Cafe for something to eat.
So how do I relax? When I think of relaxing I think of relieving tension in my body. I focus on my breathing – deep breathes. I remember to exhale as deeply as I inhale. Relaxing is something I actively do to feel better and relieve tension. I also listen to soothing music and meditations.
