The love of my life came in an email
I met you online and that was it
Our first date at Starbucks turned from minutes to hours
‘Cause Danny you’re so easy to talk with
You and I got swept up in the moment
And you drove us out to dinner that same night
I found something special and I knew it
‘Cause you’re so thoughtful and caring and kind
Who would have thought a Florida girl and a Yankee from
Ohio
Would come so far and still we’ve got so many years to go
To that Galapagos tortoise trying to take you down
Now here we are, the kids all grown
We’ve traveled far and long
Let’s share our anniversary with this song
I may not be your first kiss
Your first date or first dance
I may not be your first love
But I’m so glad for this chance
To be the very last one
The last love you’ll ever need
Yeah Danny let me be
Your last of everything
Your last of everything
Your last of everything

I used to consume two cups of coffee every morning to get my day started. Then I had heart palpitations and was directed by my Dr. to cut out the caffeine. Wah Lahh - no more palpitations!! The last couple of years, my hair was thinning and my nails split easily. Then there's bone density, sore knee joints, wrinkled arms, teeth, and the list seems to be never-ending as each year month passes.
As we age, we naturally lose collagen which affects all those ailments I listed above.
My daily coffee is now a scoop of COLLAGEN PEPTIDES, mixed with two scoops of RYZE Mushroom Coffee premixed in a 2-cup measuring cup that has been zapped in the microwave and topped with Almond milk.
Mushroom Coffee??
It's loaded with medicinal mushrooms to help stimulate the immune system, helps with energy, helps with digestion, helps you to focus, AND, it does have some caffeine, but much less than your regular coffee.
My coffee tastes smooth and flavorful. I feel like I'm getting maximum benefit with improvements in both energy levels and a decrease in inflammation. And it has also helped my stomach issues.
This has been a great coffee replacement!
With striking sky blue to blue-green colors, turquoise has been prized by cultures all over the world. The traditional December birthstone has gone in and out of style since humans started wearing this colorful stone.
I started wearing turquoise and silver in my preteen years. Then in high school, I would save up my birthday and Christmas money to buy turquoise set in 14k gold. I'm still wearing nugget bead necklaces I purchased in high school and college. (Of course, I've restrung them a zillion times).

Getting together with my daughters and Grandbabies this weekend and decided to make a Halloween Cake!
Used Betty Crocker Supreme Chunk Brownie Mix.
Baked it in an 8"x 8" pan,
followed the directions, then let it cool.
Cut off 2" down the side, and attach those 2" to the bottom of the larger part to make the brownie cake long, like a casket. Some of the brownie cake was left over and used this part as the headstone to rest the skeleton against it.
Using chocolate icing, covered the top, placed the skeleton on top in the icing, added the gummy worms, iced more around the sides, and finished it off with the spiders.
Have a Fun & Happy Halloween!!
Summer has ended, and the wildflowers have gone to seed. Our nighttime temperatures have surprisingly cooled down into the 40s, so it's time to bring the plants on the patio inside the house for winter.
My orchid is amazingly busting out with flowers!! The most I've ever had. Must be the used tea grounds I mix
in the watering jug.
Dan began the porch renovation in October 2015. It took him a while, but he completed it in April 2017.
The porch is probably the room we spend the most time in (except the office). Even to this day, I'm amazed by the craftsmanship and comfort of our porch.
Click on the link- PORCH RENOVATION by DAN, below to see the transformation from a screened-in porch to our year-round sunroom/porch!
BTW- the plants love it too when they spend six months out of the year, usually November through April, sunning on the porch.
