Toast it Tuesday! 

I mean what else can I say when we wake up to temps in the low 70’s. Might I say, there was a little chill in the air, too. 
Oh we likey. 
Sitting outside with morning coffee before the sun rises. I am not quite ready to pull out my blankie, but soon. Of course this is Texas, it’s just a tease but I’ll take it! 
Did I mention…… 
Our new home is the bomb. 
Eddie and I have established some great routines. We be an early to bed and up early couple. And that seems to work. A couple of trips to the dog park and a little swim time for me and yesterday was fantastic. 
And after running a few errands, we got in a little nap time. 
Okay, okay …… I will quit bragging. Ha! 
I almost went down last Saturday to join the Bingo group but after my swim, I ended up taking a nap. But there are daily activities here, so I have plenty of time. 
You know that feeling when you feel like you belong ……
Lots of friendly ppl and dogs and everyone respects your privacy. 
Everyday I meet new ppl and now to just remember all their names …… 
It’s a great feeling knowing that Eddie feels secure and safe here too. 
He gets a lot of exercise and each nite I have to practically force him to go out for one final short walk. He doesn’t necessarily growl at me, it’s more like a long moan as if he is saying, I’m good, let’s just go to bed. But I get him up and out and we are back inside soon. Usually with a cup of hot cocoa in hand. 
Come to think of it, I may need to switch it up some …… to hot tea. I’ve got my favorite sleepy time tea which is a healthier choice since it has become an ‘almost’ nightly habit. Not that I need any help falling to sleep. 
Once back inside, it’s not long before we are both back to slumber stage! 
It’s a wonderful ‘all’ settled feeling. 
 And it’s only Tuesday …… 
Oh, but a Toast it Tuesday is most definitely happening.

And I know Gods hand is in it all. 
Home should feel like you are on vacation from the world. 
As they say, physically you may see me alone, but spiritually God walks with me. 
You ever meet ppl that inspire you to be nothing like them. 
Oh, it happens all the time. 
The older I get, the less I need to be included, understood or accepted. 
My love is unconditional. My trust and respect are not. 
Some ppl just love to live offended so they can avoid accountability. If they can remain the ‘victim’ all their lives they can avoid accountability and maturity. 
There are ppl/friends in this life that are always with me side by side, no matter the distance.  They are my ppl!

Even the most caring person will get tired of being taken for granted. 
And there is nothing more urgent today than taking care of your body, mind and spirit. 
Hey, it’s one of the coolest days we have had in a while, so lots of fresh air time and exercise for Eddie and me are part of the agenda for today. 
Toast it Tuesday!

Dear God, Thank you for this new day. As I step into this day, grant me the clarity to discern the path that aligns with my soul’s calling. As I move through the tapestry of this day, may I weave threads of gratitude in every experience. Amen. 
Namasté.
