I will start.


We were at a party recently with our daughter Helene who enjoys sparkling earrings and bracelets. A friend walks in who knows us all and knows Helene's enchantment with fashion jewelry. She chatted with Helene for a few minutes gave her a hug and took off and gave Helene the beautiful bracelet she was wearing.

I Woke Up and saw the Sun and Blue Sky!

As some of you know, I am in The Villages everyday, doing mostly warranty inspections. I love what I do and meet the most interesting and wonderful people. I had a customer the other day who enjoyed bird watching, etc. I was telling her a problem we were having with our active bluebird house, and she GAVE me a specific item to help with it....something that I did not know existed and in all of my research never came across.

It was so very kind of her and I very much appreciated it. When you consider the average life of the 7 billion people on this planet, we all have to be in the upper 1/10th of the top one percent in health, wealth, lifestyle, etc, etc......we are all very blessed and have much to be thankful for. Enjoy!

Frank did my home inspection and he's a treasure for anyone who needs one. A sweep of positive vibes all around! Genuinely nice guy.

Could be and now that they're gone I have a lot more yards to walk the puppies.

And Gracie's here. Rejoice!

I also have a new friend. She is caring, compassionate, unselfish, and just a beautiful person not only on the outside but on the inside where it is most important. I am so grateful for her. Yes, BFF, I agree, some things are meant to be.

I don't post very often but I do check out this forum everyday. I have missed reading Gracie's uplifting posts. So glad she is back. God bless.

I woke up here in paradise.

Gracie what a great thread! So glad you started it.

This morning when I went to the back, when I was leaving, someone said, "Welcome to The Villages" with a big smile on their face. I don't know why they thought I just arrived but who cares. It was a lovely offering of hospitality.

I saw a wonderful sunrise this morning. While walking on the boardwalk before the sunrise all the other walkers greated me with a good morning.

They made me feel like a customer, not a number. And they were nice to the grump-buckets too!

I got to LAUGH OUT LOUD at this vocabulary expansion for today:

"grump-buckets"

!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Went to the new Walgreens in Pinellas to get a prescription. The druggist was great!! There was a problem with insurance (go figure), he tried to fix it, but it turned out I had to call. After a 30 minute call involving several parties, I was told to have him put the transaction through again, no go, more typing at insurance company, and try again, after the 4th try, SUCCESS. During this whole process the druggist was great and very positive. This is my new pharmacy.

We wake up every day in good health and see sunshine coming in thru the blinds.....

Watching the Spanish Spring web cam and seeing the palm trees gently swaying with the breeze. When I see the golf carts going around the bend I wonder is Gracie in there? Lol!
