Happy sweet treats tuesday :) gaining our balance, new updates ,and sunny nature :)

Happy sweet treats tuesday :) my mom's doing ok, and making good healing progress : )She's having a good day :) We're continuing to get balanced, and looking forward to mailing cards here from home tomorrow :) Some new updates, and looking forward to lots more good days ahead :)



Hi angel friends :) my family, Holly ,and i hope everyone is doing well,healthy,and enjoying a nice day :)We love hearing from you, and we think of you all often :) my mom's continuing to do well, making good healing progress :) She's having a good day :) She's been able to enjoy some cream of wheat cereal, yogurt, jello, and chicken broth :) She's keeping strong, and in good spirits :) We're all chipping in around the house, spending time with caring for our pets, plus doing laundry, and also organizing here in our downstairs apartment :) We're very glad, and thankful my mom's continuing to make good healing progress :) Thank you angel friends, for your warm well wishes, prayers, and support :) We're very blessed, and thankful to have you all in our lives :)



This morning, Holly and i enjoyed a nice treats tuesday breakfast :) The morning took a bit of a turn into some frustrating moments though. yesterday, i mentioned about placing an order on walgreen's website, it went very well, and was very fast shipping :) my mom's ordered from their website before,and we have a gift card and wanted to give it a try. the experience was very nice, including getting a new coffee maker :) Holly and i checked out our new coffee maker, and found that we need paper coffee filters for the coffee maker. i tried to add some items into my walgreen's account cart this morning, including some coffee paper filters, i went to the checkout and had saved my walgreen's gift card from my other yesterday, i clicked on the button to use the gift card, and noticed the order form say, "your gift card doesn't have enough to cover the order (the order was about $30), i was baffled,and Holly joined in to help me, we tried everything ,including calling walgreen's customer support, the actual walgreen's store down the road from us, and we also were sent to a technican representative, for technical help. they said, they too are baffled as to why the order wouldn't go through, as we have enough money on the gift card, they sent it to the other technicans, and should hear from them by thursday, Holly and i thanked the technican for their assitance. making calls, sending out emails to walgreen's took a lot of our morning ,it was frustrating, but we're determined to be able to use our gift card.



Holly and i are looking forward to being able to brew some coffee, and treating ourselves to some iced coffees, by brewing coffee, plus we have some nice ice :) Lisa usually brought iced coffee each day when she owed me money for her rent, and last friday paid me back the final $100 (she recently sold her car), and she didn't mention to me if i wanted to give her money to pick up iced coffees for Holly and i at cumberland farms. we feel it was a bit upsetting she didn't ask, but she doesn't have any problems asking to borrow $500 for rent. We believe in 3 or 4 weeks, she'll need to borrow money again ,and she'll offer the iced coffees then, but it makes me feel kinda used, so i'm not sure, if i can help her with money right now, i just don't feel like she appreciates me, and the only really communication is her usually asking me for money, and me saying thanks for the iced coffees. Holly and i are trying to be more idependent, by getting our own coffee maker, and making our own coffee. we haven't had any coffee since last friday. we feel kinda let down ,but also feeling let down by the walgreen's website, and them having issues letting us place our order. We have a good amount of money on our gift card, and it's frustrating the order won't go thru, and we keep getting the run-around by their site technicians. we're hopeful they'll get back to us soon ,about the site/gift card situation.



we've been busy here at home, drying/cleaning our floor, downstairs apartment, and with all that happened with my mom's health last week, we've been trying to achieve a good balance again with our days :) i do have some cards to mail out tomorrow, and we're trying to keep with our daily routines ,and weekly traditions. it's been a rough past 7 days, but we're hanging in there,and continuing to take good care of our health, caring for our pets, and also our plants :)Holly and i got some fresh air this afternoon, and tended our plants, giving them a good watering. :) The plants are doing well :) We're gonna get a good night's sleep, and tomorrow i want to enjoy my writing times at the usually times of the day i write, i'll definitely keep everyone updated on how my mom and us all are doing, and about the walgreen's site/order situation. Holly and i are going to watch knight rider show tonight, and looking forward to mailing cards tomorrow, and having a more balanced day, with a ghost hunters party too :) thank you angel friends, for always being here for us, and for the special joy you all bring us :) We're very blessed, and thankful to have you all in our lives :) We appreciate you all very much, and will always be here for you all too :) Big group caring, happy sunny sunflower friendship hug :) We wish everyone a nice peaceful evening and night :)



-never lose hope :)



my mom, Holly, and our family say hi :) We hope everyone is doing well, healthy,and enjoying a nice day :) We love you all very much, our sweet dear wonderful guardian angel friends :) You all are always in our thoughts, prayers, and in our hearts :) We're looking forward to sharing in many more times with everyone :)



Happy sunny nature ,and summer gardening season smiles :) Hi angel friends, our garden continues to flourish, during these deeper days of August : ) We love sharing our garden and adventures with everyone :) Holly and i watered our plants, and enjoyed a nature walk :)The weather is sunny and comfortable :)

Hi Chris Glad you Holly and your family are doing well having a nice Tuesday Happy to hear your mom is continuing to recover well Sorry you had problems with Walgreens website Sometimes websites have issues like that Maybe Alyssa can pick you o[ some paper coffee filters od check to see if Amazon has them I always buy coffee makers with a reuseable mesh filter So I don't have to constantly buy paper ones Its great you want to make your own coffee instead of depending on others for it Glad you and Holly got to tend the garden today. Sunflowers are beautiful Thanks for all my nice hugs today Have a good evening hug to everyone-Stephanie

Hi Sweet Chris, I'm really sorry you had a problem using your Walgreens gift card when u wanted to buy some more things like the paper filters for your new coffee machine. I hope Walgreens will get this all fixed and then u can order the coffee filters. Maybe Dollar Tree or Walmart might have the coffee filters u need in the meantime and then when your Walgreens gift card gets fixed u can buy other things from Walgreens. That's good that Lisa paid you back the last 100.00 that you loaned to her & she recently sold her car but that meant that she is not offering to get iced coffee for you & Holly at Cumberland Farms anymore but you think she will ask to loan more money from u and then buy the iced coffee for you. I'm sorry that she is like that. It's very upsetting when people act that way especially when you have been so nice to Lisa lending your money to her. The flowers u posted in your garden r very beautiful tu for sharing and I hope your mom continues to feel better & I'm glad she is able to eat. I hope u all have a nice, peaceful & restful evening. Hugs & love

I made a Walgreens account today. I hope they get it straightened out! It’s frustrating when you depend on a service and it’s a let down::(.

So nice to have beautiful nature pictures. Thanks for the eye candy!! Beautiful photography as always! Your green thumb is shining too!! SO talented you are:)

Sending lots of love your way.

Hi Chris, I’m glad to hear that your mom is doing better and making good healing progress. Continued prayers for her recovery, hopefully she can get the feeding tube out soon.
Hopefully you get everything straightened out and can use your Walgreens gift card.
It’s nice that you and Holly were able to brew your own iced vanilla coffee’s at home and hopefully can continue to do so.
It’s good that you and Holly are enjoying the cooler weather and can get out and tend to your garden without any problems.
Sorry that you’ve been so busy with trying to dry up and clean your downstairs apartment, hopefully everything gets back to normal soon and hopefully you and Holly can catch up on your rest.
Thanks, as always, for sharing so many amazing nature pics, your flowers are beautiful :-)
