I Texted My Sister this Morning…
”Happy Frideeeee!!!” She works full time at a Physical Therapy place in Snobsdale (Scottsdale) and has Fridays off. She neeeeeds those Fridays off. And a couple of our family members pronounce the end of the days of the week eeee, instead of ay. It’s just something nonsensicle to tease about. So, Happy Frideeee it is to her. She didn’t have a headache for once and she got to go to the salon to get her hair done. I haven’t heard back from her since, so I am guessing she’s enjoying her day, hopefully, still headache free.
My days are pretty much all about hubby, although I did have a fun photo shoot yesterday and because the 3 “victims” and I are friends and had time to spare, we went to our awesome local coffee shop (not Sbucks) and enjoyed our hot drinks and meaningful conversation. What a nice break! After I returned home, I decided to do a little sunbathing where a significant amount of sun splashes onto our livingroom floor. In the background, beautiful romantic guitar music was playing (thank you, Pandora). I imagined sea gulls flying and squeaking, waves crashing and could almost smell the glorious scent of Coppertone and french fries. I promptly fell asleep.When I came out of my beachy slumber, I noticed things from On The Floor level and grabbed my nearby camera. I am so easily entertained.To be continued..

Those roses are hanging from the shelf above my little livingroom desk. Hanging out to dry.
Floor level provides an interesting perspective — I’d do more from down there, but I’m afraid I’d never be able to get up! Happy Frideeee to you, Gail!
I agree with Slmret lol, I know I would never get back up. I have some roses hanging in my bath room that look almost like those but they are fake wow real ones those are gorgeous!
Hope hubby is felling better….have a blessed weekend my friend

fascinating how a change in perspective (floor level vs eye level) makes things different. so glad that you got to take pics (your fav) and then chats and a good hot drink…some of my fav’s as well. glad that you were able to brighten your sisters day and also that she was able to have that time off to recuperate from all of the intensity of her weeks.
@Mymanyblessings - @slmret - The Getting Back Up…yes, that could be a challenge. I hope to never lose that ability!
@mytoesareblue - We’d have fun hangin’ out together, wouldn’t we? ( 8
My wife needs her hair styled for mental therapy in part–also her nails.
I have not heard anyone mention sunbathing in decades. I was walking once past our hospital and a nurse was sunbathing—clothed. I got brave and asked her about it. She said people are so afraid of the sun now the miss very valuable health benefits. Once in my L.A. office the Administrative manager complained that company employee gals were sunbathing in a common outside area with a fountain. The gals were pulling up their skirts to suntan their legs. We actually had a managers meeting with the V.P. I argued that it was community property and the gals were on their own time and it was not corporate business. The VP agreed with me.
Hope you have a very nice weekend,

It’s amazing how if you change your perspective you see things you totally didn’t notice before. Happened to be yesterday as I was babysitting and hanging upside down on the play set.
Good old chats are so good for the soul and mind!!
Happy Weekend to you!
I always enjoy your photos!
Also enjoyed visiting the beach with you!!
@HUMOR_ME_NOW - My husband’s 80 year old buddy’s 72 year old wife gets her hair and nails done every other week, without fail. I used to think it was because she was spoiled rotten. Lately, I have understood it to be therapy. I am being very careful with my sunbathing so as not to scorch. We’ve had plenty of skin cancer scares, but at the same time, we humans do need to enjoy a little sunshine. Our weekend was very good. I slept away most of Sunday…so wiped out.
@redladybug18 - Hanging upside down on the playset would really give a fun perspective! And just imagine, God sees ALL of it, every angle, everything inside out and through and through.
@victoriantomboy - Thank you, April! What a treat it would be to visit the beach “for reals”!
