Share Your World June 19, 2017

It’s Share Your World Monday again, so come on, join us! Cee at ceenphotography.com welcomes all to this posting. So jump in! This week’s questions are: 1. What is something people are obsessed with that you just don’t get? For me it has to be fishing. I don’t like it. It’s boring, it smells, you get icky if you bait a hook (icky being a technical term). I think catch and release is like torture for the fish. Some of this relates to being forced to sit in a small boat in hot and humid weather, with my parents while they enjoyed fishing. This happened often. Not to be rude, but I hated it.

2. What quirky things do people do where you are from? People in Wyoming are a bit quirky about the use of firearms. But one thing that has stood out for my family is: no driver seems to be able to figure out how to navigate a roundabout. They either sit at the yield thinking it’s a stop sign, or can’t figure out which direction they are going in or want to be going in, or they blast ahead ignoring everyone else

. 3. What things would you unlearn? I would unlearn being critical of myself. I would be able to look at myself in the mirror and think, “you are ok”.  

4. Who is someone you miss having in your life? I miss a couple of good friends that I live far away from now. They made life much easier and more fun. 5. What are you grateful for from last week and what are you looking forward to this week? I’m always grateful for time spent with my grandkids, but this week I spent some alone time with my daughter which was very special.  I am grateful my grandson is home from youth camp so we can spend some time together. One thing he said today as he dropped off my mail surprised me. I asked what he enjoyed most at the camp after he spoke about the activities of, swimming, rope challenge, zipline, singing, music, games, etc. He answered, the group discussions about life and Jesus. At seventeen I always knew he had a soft heart, but I guess he’s also an old soul. 💞 http://ceenphotography.com/2017/06/19/share-your-world-june-19-2017/

Fandango’s Flashback Friday — June 27th

SoCS 6-28-25

Plug is appropriate for me today since I spent a while looking for the cord and plug to charge my Swiffer mop. I love it and of course living by myself I don’t have to mop frequently. Gone are the days I wanted shiny floors everywhere and religiously cleaned them – old mop and bucket days…😵‍💫young cleaners have it easy.☺️. After I finish writing today I’m going to plug in to rewatch some “The Pitt” episodes. Since I have to keep my left leg “up” instead of hanging down in the wheelchair, it entertains me. I try not to plug into the news but seems I have to.
❤️Have a great weekend and do something fun!❤️

The walls are high, insurmountable

The bridge is inaccessible

How do we meet these challenges –

Only in our imagination?

Problems are icy barriers

Quiet reflection thaws them

Slowly only, think of solutions

Finds the answers you need.

It seems impossible, reaching out to help others, but they are also wanting your contact, so stretch your imagination, accept the differences.

Two lizards sitin’ in a tree…oh no I didn’t! Just kidding folks, I think it’s my mindset today…a little off, a little weird…ever have those days? For entertainment I shuffled my winter and summer sock drawer and gave some too small slipper socks to my granddaughter.My family came last night, a rare visit to see my great granddaughter, Tavi, and she was much more friendly this time. I got a lecture from my grandson, the firefighter and my daughter about not wearing the “I’ve fallen and can’t ’”…You could hardly call it a necklace. I don’t think these two lizards would be too happy with it either. I wonder how they call for help if they need it? Those long curly tails probably save them from falls. Nature doesn’t leave things to chance.
