just for fun.....

While they are in swimming lessons, I am in heaven;D 

Super Moon on the beach, and other fun (albeit insignificant;) happenings from our day

and the crystals are ready for their  super moon charge!



created a super HIGH tide!   there was NO beach today; there is normally quite a walk to get to the water during low tide, but this is the highest tide I've seen!
 

we love love LOVE flip flop kind of days;)



  
we're here!


hey there; just gearing up to howl for the super moon.......

the super moon over the Atlantic (the water is SO warm!)

and now, for other random snapshots of our day.....

his lap dog:D


my pretty poppies revisited, because I saw a picture of The Poppy Fairy:)

while cleaning out the old boat, J found this chart of the western islands of Lake Erie

My sweet girl decided to surprise me by doing dishes!! Unfortunately, I neglected to teach her to replace the sink strainer with a stopper. The poor girl had to keep refilling the water:/ 


and now for the most important news of all.....since I was stuck going to Walmart, which is one of my least favorite things to do; I'd rather go to the dentist :D.......I passed this aisle called "as seen on tv"---which I believe aisle like that are a major source of mockery---and I did it, I saw and bought this thing called HOT BUNS....and for the low price of $9.95, you TOO can have a fun bun like me:D  But wait, call in the next 15 minutes and we'll give you two!  ok, not really, but I still can't believe I bought it, and not only that, I actually like it!  (hey, it could be worse, it could be the pajama jeans; right?!  now, if only hot buns could give me my 20 or even 30 something buns back :D  I would DEFINITELY buy two :)

excitement of the day....

I  just like this picture and this saying, a lot!



fairy girl showered my bling studio with pretty flower petals.... 


Lunch with my little ladies, and their little ladies 


I finally caved, check out the new dragonfly ring (from Island Cowgirl, of course;)

scenes from the home front today:

So my girls know I don't drink coffee. But they do know I love the smell of it because it reminds me of my dad and my grandma. So for Mother's Day, they surprised me with a handcrafted coffee scented candle from a local craft fair;). I thought that was so sweet of them! 

R.I.P. Ding Dongs, and Tweekies, and Suzie Qs, and Snow Balls, and Ho Hos

My girls have NEVER had Hostess cakes...I could not, in good conscience, let my girls go through live with out a taste of this American Icon....so we headed to Publix, soon after hearing the sad news.....(excitedly came home to have our taste, only to discover it felt like a rock in our bellies...so we donated it to the neighbors.....haha;D) 
**as a side note, my family once buried a twinkie (in its packaging)...and a couple of years later, dug it up, to find it was still completely in tact!  This leads me to believe that if you eat more twinkies your body should stay completely in tact too, right?:)

 You will be missed Hostess.

I Offer Up My Sincerest Apologies...

Hey There, it's me....over there on the left (other left Mom!).  I'm writing to my MANY MANY MANY Blog Fans (ok, it's a bit of a stretch here, I get it--but I know every once in awhile at least one or two of you read my posts, or maybe you did:)  Heck, I admit, I've been boring myself!  But I got ahead of myself here:)

Today, I took a trip down memory lane, read through some of my posts from 2008 and 2009 and 2010...and I think my posts were a lot more fun back then!  But, believe it or not, there is both a rhyme AND a reason for my many recent posts that have been more on the, shall we say "meditative" "Angelish" "New Age Ish" "Hippyish" side....the reason you may ask?  Or maybe you really don't want to know:)  I've been trying to stay "focused" and peaceful as I was very recently certified as an Usui Reiki 1 Practitioner.   Over the next month, I will be doing classwork to be certified as a Master level Kundalini/Practical Reiki Practitioner.  And in the middle of October, I will be flying back to Wisconsin, with a "sister" friend of mine (meeting me, she will be flying from the other side of the country)---we will be sharing a hotel room, and a rental car together (sounds funny, considering I spent over 40 years living there:).  And together we will be receiving our Level 2 Usui Reiki Attunements (certifications), at Holy Hill!  That will be an incredible weekend for us!  We will also be quite busy that weekend with training and related activities, not even sure I'll have time to see my parents...:O 

Anyway, this is just an explanation for all the recent posts.  I've decided to stop boring everyone and myself and get back to my regularly scheduled programming:)  Thank you kindly for your patience through my brief period of, OMMMMMMMMism:D

p.s. I'm not even going to begin to explain Reiki...if anybody is curious, it really is much better that you just look it up.  I recognize this will be a stretch for some, and that is OK!  

Namaste:)

Some Scenes from Today: no rhyme or reason for the mix

He's my Angel!!

He's so purrttty, he's still seems more like a "she" to us:)

Laugh-try it, I dare you:D

Saw this as we were leaving Hilton Head today, on a car in front of me

I'm suddenly into the inspirational decor:)

So if SC can do this to MY fine hair, I'd LOVE to see what it does to someone who is more "known" for having LOTs of hair:D

Fun at World Market

mmmmmmmm, salt water taffey

A chair fit for a princess

On the left, you will meet Tasha, created by Fairy Girl; and on the right, please meet Ayla, created by Little Angel (please note, Ayla, was a name I considered for my first-born, as I had always thought it was so pretty since reading the Clan of the Cave Bear series:); so I was a little bit blown away when she came up with this name today, as I had never mentioned it to her:)

VICTORY!!!!

Thanksgiving 2009 with Grandma and Grandpa

Our new fiber optic dragonfly lights for Angel's surprise fairy tea party---I was disappointed there were no purple dragonflies--that's just wrong:(



This is a VERY interesting that Angel would draw this--I thought her obsession was with mermaids--since I haven't watched "Charmed" in about a year, I have NO idea where she got the inspiration to draw this:)


Yes, I'd like to order a sweet Fairy Girl to go please---oh, and can I have fries with that too please?
