@lovendures OMG. I just spit out my drink laughing. I told my husband what I thought it looked like, a big, flying…………. Seriously? They couldn’t create a different silhouette? Lord help us.
I can't stop laughing at those tippy cups. It turns out Bronze Age people weren't the dour survivalists of popular imagination. Thanks for posting!
I know! Right? I always imagined them in dark windowless hovels, eating dirt filled gruel. Wondering what other toys might be lying around.
So true! I don't think human nature has changed much, in some ways, down through the centuries.
There was probably a class clown named Oog.
Greetings from the intermission between movies at the Cherrybowl Drive In in Honor Michigan. We just finished Jungle Cruise and are waiting for Black Widow. I took the wife and kids and came with another wonderful family with their son.
I spent as much time staring at the beautiful sky as I did at Emily Blunt and the action. I wanted to give everyone some of the perspective I got from the universe tonight.
we got quite a light show - so many shooting stars I ran out of wishes. I did a selfish one for things at work to work out. An end to COVID. I then sent a lot of “light and loves” to this rock as a whole. One for @Unk and his family.
As I continued staring at the blanket of stars above us I just got an overwhelming sense that it’s going to be okay ladies and gentlemen. It’s all going to be okay.
time for Black Widow but I’ll send more shooting star wishes of light and love to all!
As we gather on the rooftop to meet and linger and dance beneath star and moon light, let us remember… “We are more remarkable when we allow ourselves to become the bridge between heaven and earth. It is essential to recognize that we are the earth angels and here to be the beacon of hope in a world that seems to destroy itself.” (quoting a friend)
@dannyboy thank you for that beautiful sense of peace and hope. It’s good to have a reminder every now and then. May it always be. ??
Not sure why..... but every morning this week I have awoken with Demi Lovato singing in my dream-wake moments. https://youtu.be/WDAd0S92Uko
It doesn't do the lines about "happy for you" It just keeps playing over and over in my mind "stone cold, stone cold - you see me standing but I 'm dyin' on the floor,stone cold, stone cold maybe if I don't cry I won't feel anymore, stone cold, stone cold ..Give me the truth ...me and my heart will make it through" then it hangs like an ear worm .. popping out at odd moments....no other lyric lines.. just those lines. *sigh*
I think we all... hunger.... for the Truth.. and.. if we get the Truth we'll make it through? I don't know... I just know I am tired of hearing this one LOL This morning? I said... Okay , okay.. I got it... stone cold, need the Truth..to make it through. Thanks. that's enough!! *sigh*
Popping out of lurk mode to say hi, and hand out some pieces of cyber zucchini bread, because it's coming out of my ears right now. I've needed a mental health break from online stuff, social media, the news, etc, for the past few months. Trying to focus on good thoughts and good energy. Now the Delta surge is spinning me out again. I find I'm no longer able to have empathy for people who have been refusing the vaccine up to this point ... family members included. My attitude now better resembles, "you get what you get." And I hate that feeling.
I need to play catch up, but I hope all are well. Coyote and Ghandigirl, you two have both been on my mind off and on, and I hope you've been well and have felt peace.
Summer is ending in a very odd place. My daughter recently came out to me, and while I wasn't surprised a bit and feel relief for her, my husband is really struggling with it ... and I know telling his family will be a nightmare. Hoping this little bubble of just us knowing can be enough for her right now; she has anxiety anyway, and adding people who won't understand or accept isn't something she needs. I end each day sending up a little light that he will open his mind and heart, and understand that her soul isn't damned, and she isn't "broken," and this isn't my fault.
Hoping to visit more often and keep up with everyone. Please have another piece of zucchini bread ...

I'm experiencing similar feelings towards the unvaxxed and I don't like the feeling either. At least some of them are starting to realize "sh** is real" and are finally getting their shots.
As for the zucchini bread, I will take some if you will take some of my monstrous crop of cherry tomatoes. The vines are taking over the entire garden, climbing over a fig tree, and the freaking tomatoes are everywhere. I have never had much luck with tomatoes until now. I guess I will freeze some to use in cooking later. (If anyone wants to grow incredibly prolific cherry tomatoes, try the "Midnight Snack" variety. OMG. ? )
