SHABBAT SHALOM; Coalinga-CA

Today was a blessing 💖 in more than one way 😊

The weather 🌞 was so pleasant, that we were able to have the door open for a fresh breeze to be enjoyed:

I like days like this.

And the winged air traffic seems to be slowing down; I found some sticky fly paper strips, and hung those from the overhead farmhouse kitchen island light fixture, the upper bedroom air conditioner vent slat, and upper floor shower stall (the pesky pests are drawn to that particular sky light) … fervent prayer, and the vinegar/dish soap traps are still being used, too. Everything combined, seems to be working together to help us combat this irksome situation 🙏

We decided to enjoy a lazy Day, so we didn't do much but lay low, all day long 😉

Holland cat napped and caught up on some much needed sleep 🛌💤 - and I scrolled through FB Reels & PM's 💻 for about 30 minutes 🌐; dug the scratch cards Holland had bought for me the other day, out of my purse, and revealed nothing 😂🤣; and I did some body toning 💪

Spring themed scratch cards … losers, every one.

Chin-to-Chest Stretch~4-to-10 reps per set x3 weekly

Punches~6-12 x2; Curls~10-15 x2; Rows~6-8 x2; Squat~5-8 x2; Calf Raises~12-15 x2

Muscles used today.

Exercising won't make a aging body 20-30-40 y.o. again - but, it will strengthen muscles under the skin, & add vitality to your aging Life. And that's a pretty good benefit 👌

Even being lazy today, I managed to rack up 3,382 steps (1.3 miles) just walking the length 👣 of my tiny house on wheels: a little over half of recommended 6,000.

And around mid-day, I set the world chatter 🙄 aside & set my thoughts 🧠 on settling into my 24-hour Shabbat Rest 🕊️ We are living in an era of immense division & uncertainty 😵‍💫 … so, for a chosen small frame of time ⏰, I want to be able to fully ignore it; & focus on what really matters 👩‍❤️‍💋‍👨💎🦁📖☝️ ✝️ 

I listened to a bit of newsy updates - before switching to music, which soothed the chatter upheaval. I can listen to world insanity updates only so long … my soul is weary of the lunatic fringe forcing their delusions on us.

The toxicity 😈 of America's political life, is poisoning society - aided by social media 👺 (all social media outlets) & creating an alarming coarse culture 💩, where the loudest and harshest voices 🤪🤡🥊 are amplified 😤🗣️ It is hard not to react 😒 to all that is happening.

My commitment during this 24-hr. restful period of time is to try to remain calm ✌️, carry on 👍, and find enjoyment 😁 in Life.

Shabbat ☝️🕊️ … and the soothing messages of the messianic songs I enjoy, makes that possible 🎧✝️
