    What do you all think of this picture? I like it and am using it to help with visualization, but apparently it was controversial when it came out...

    Love it 😍! It speaks to me about freeing oneself from the weight hiding the person inside. I note she’s not ripping off a “fat suit” but slowly chipping away. Slow and steady and she’ll emerge!

    A fav quote inspired me... I saw the angel in the marble and carved until I set him free ― Michelangelo

    And then saw the pic, so liked it.

    Sometimes body pics can be difficult to see. The exray one disturbs me. The stone one inspires... go figure...

    where is Ms Lady Bug heading to? Should I be getting lakeside inspirations? Any issues with Wildfires?

    I am lakeside alright - in Osoyoos, air is clear. There was some rain yesterday which no doubt helped. Temperature set to rise every day this week and clouds to disappear, per forecast.
    We are in a motel with A/C, this photo is from our balcony - living the life!

    I'm alive. Just been not in the best of places mentally and emotionally and my physical health has been suffering too. But I log on nearly every day and read.

    As some of you know I am pagan (Alex and I used to talk about it, I miss her). Last night I had a dream that one of my patrons really wants me to start taking better care of myself. That she is sad that I am letting myself go and putting myself at such risk. So I need to change.

    Sorry you’re not feeling well Athijade. Maybe it would help to take your patron’s advice.
    I miss Alexandra too. She was a force of nature.

    Good advice is good advice! And it sounds like good advice to me! Would be nice to get Alex and her meal planning back into the fold!

    Hope BClady is having a great time in the exotically named Osoyoos. I’ll be taking off to Alaska in a month. Looking forward to some cold weather.

    I’m really hoping Laurie checks in soon. It’s been a month since she disappeared. I hope she’s okay and just working hard on the house in Newfoundland.

    I'm envisioning extremely "intense home reno" worthy, super busy house construction in Newfoundland aided and abated by curly head "boy"!!!!

    I, on the other hand, imagine all sorts of dire scenarios!

    Am not. Am 100% seeing home reno gone wild. Curly haired boy vignettes will be included in the reno. Laine the dog is complaining of neglect.

    As long as you don't end up ducking boulders!!!!🤯 You need one of the twisty stairs made for right hand swords-defenders and with a boulder gutter!🤔

    Yeah - sometimes the stairs are like a medieval challenge.

    Don’t know how the above got double posted! Maybe we just need to hear it twice?

    Maybe it’s the heat here at 3pm and getting hotter - 🥵
    Right now it’s 106° Sunny
    Day 108° • Night 79°

    It is a very pretty sign Yooly 😊.

    My goodness that is hot!! Our summer is cooling off, and I'm going camping for 2 nights next week- just hoping not too cool overnight (we are not hardy types- my daughter and granddaughter and me!).
