Oh what a beautiful day! The sun has returned from its long vacation and it is glorious out with bright blue skies and no clouds. It is 51 and on its way up to 60. Spring has returned to the prairie. My soul is singing today.
Nicole text me this morning. Nicole had met a woman that remembers meeting me once. Nicole is in Spain touring around. I am not sure I remember the lady she met today but that lady did mention a mutual friend we have. It is a small, small world!
Worked on getting my Retreat Center converted to an Airbnb site instead. Still have some work to do on it but my site is up and listed. Need to get a good face shot of myself to put on the site. I don’t have many pictures of myself. Good news is I don’t have to create a website. Yeah!
Struggling with my blog site today. I contacted Word Press and they referred me to JetPack. I hate when that happens. Just sent an email support note to JetPack to see if I can get this straightened out. Sure wish I understood who does what and when. Technological terms and I don’t speak the same language.
Bought a pair of size 6 jeans in Manhattan yesterday. I didn’t think I would be able to get them on but they fit! Wow! Wonder what size I will be when I lose the 23 – 28 more pounds I need to lose to get to goal weight? Down 13 pounds so far but the hard pounds to lose are still in front of me.
Got the chicken coop cleaned out after my lunch today. It wasn’t very hard to do but I worked up a good sweat. Had to take my sweatshirt off. Removed the heat lamp and extension cord from the coop. Supposed to get down to 22 next week but will trust the water won’t freeze overnight. As long as I keep the windows closed to the coop it stays pretty warm. May have to drag it back down there if it gets cold and stays cold for two or more days.
The moon was so pretty last night when I was up during the night. It will be full tomorrow night. I thought I had left the living room lights on as it was so bright out. It has been so cloudy lately that I haven’t seen much of the sun or moon lately. Nice to have them back and shining brightly on the prairie.
Have been reading all the stuff about Facebook and privacy invasion. I did go through my settings and eliminated all the data sharing apps that were open. Have decided not to do anymore of the silly quiz’s and tests that are offered. Most of the data apps that I had open were a result of those. Not even sure what this all means and what the consequences for myself might be. I tend not to think of worse case scenario in cases like this. I enjoy more of what Facebook has to offer than the things I don’t like. It sure helps me stay connected to others and keeps me somewhat informed of what is going on with them. I have managed to get most of the political posts main sites blocked from my page so I see very few of those now. I have also unfollowed several people who have different political views than I do and who like to post those views often. Once in a while I can handle but not daily or even weekly.
Facebook is a fun place for me – not one I go to get triggered with negative posts.
I can feel the energy of the sun pouring into my soul today. I sure missed the bright light during the day. I have more energy today than I have had in several weeks.
Grateful for this glorious, beautiful spring day on the prairie, grateful I got my Airbnb account set up, and grateful for my upcoming empty space weekend.
