Happy Tuesday Blogger’s. I have a question, “Do you think the sun is ever going to shine again???” It has been forever and they said on the weather last night we’ve only had 18 percent of sunshine this month…It’s kind of dreary but I guess it’s cold so who really cares. I don’t want to go out anyways. I’m not a cold weather person, still living in the Midwest.
Ah, but I still have my glorious planner’s. Today I’m getting my Traveler’s Notebooks set up for this year. I’ll refer to them as TN’s b/c it’s just shorter. I can’t decide which one I’m going to use. My featured picture is of both of the traveler’s notebooks that I’m trying to deciding to use.
I’ve been using the black one but it’s just black, no personality. It is velvet on the outside and I don’t worry about it getting dirty, but it might get wet. Then I have the other one. It’s kind of busy and my inserts might clash with the outside, but it is one from my fav’s #theplannersociety…
I also have bought some really cool inserts all the way from the Ukraine. They are suppose to be delivered on Friday. They are monthly inserts and they are the best. I’ll make sure I post up the final product, inserts and all. Here are a few pics of the TN I’m using now. I really love it. It is one of my favorite planner’s of all. Best of all, it doesn’t need charging and I always know right where to look for something. There is something to be said for having a, “Hard Copy.” The TN fits right in my purse and I never leave home w/o my it !!!! Here are a few pics of the TN I’m using now. I really love, love, love it <3 Happy Tuesday again <3
Good morning Blogger’s, hope everyone’s week is going smoothly. It seems to be a bit stressful at this point in our nation, but as my very wise grandmama use to say (and say quite often) “This too shall pass !!!” So what I’m doing at this point in my week is going to my happy place. That would be my Daily Planner. I have Mz. Serena up and running, (pictured below) and I’m also starting to set up, “The Mother Ship.” She will be my planner that keeps everything that is near and dear to my heart.
I really love planning my day !!! It just looks so pretty…I’m going to be posting what I do with my planner which for now I will call the Mother Ship. This year I am going to devote to J O Y !!!! Anything that does not bring joy into my life, well it is going to be removed. Life is short and I’m not wasting anymore time on things that do not bring me J O Y. My blog is a happy place for me and brings me joy. I love to write, I love to plan. Let’s do this <3 Happy Hump Day <3
Today’s prompt is, “No Rules.” Which I have to start out with a comment addressing someone who had to be snarky about our President who is fighting his own battle against this Plague. Unfortunately someone thinks that by following the, “Rules, i.e. I suppose wearing a face mask, blah, blah, and triple blah you are safe from this horrible virus.” Actually you are not. No matter what you do you can minimize the risk I suppose, but if this should tell you anything is that we are all at risk. Him as the President, I am quite sure they took every precaution to keep him safe from this virus, but the hater’s out there seem to think that if only he would have worn a mask then he would not have contracted the virus. N O T !!! He is our President and people should really check themselves...My mom is a retired Infection Control Nurse, the daughter is a nurse on the Covid floor at a local hospital and my sisteris also a nurse. You don’t understand how virus’s work. If they did, we would have a cure for the common cold which this virus is part of only on a more aggressive and dangerous level.
I have not worn a mask really at all. I don’t think I’m safer with a mask. I think the only people who should wear mask are the doctor’s and nurses or anyone who is in contact with infected people. Wash you hands, keep them away from your face, P E R I O D !!!! This virus is going to do what it is going to do and it is going to be over when it’s over and if anyone is responsible for the virus that would be China. I’m done with this virus, I’m so over it.
Now it’s time for my song for this Sunday…This is a song that always brings me and the husband to a great place. We sing it loud and dance it out. There are no worries when we listen to this song and if someone is down we just play it loud and proud and we forget about all our worries. He paints to this song and I plan listening to this song. Yes we are the Painter and the Planner. I think that’s kind of catchy 😉
Here’s the song…Promised Land by Elvis !!!! Enjoy
PROMISED LAND
“Promised Land”
I left my home in Norfolk Virginia California on my mind I straddled that Greyhound And rode into Raleigh And on across Caroline
We had motor trouble that turn into a struggle Halfway across Alabam’ And that hound broke down and left us all stranded In downtown Birmingham
Right away I brought me a through train ticket Ridin’ across Mississippi clean And I was on that midnight flyer out of Birmingham Smoking into New Orleans
Somebody help me get out of Louisiana Just to help me get to Houston Town There are people there who care a little about me And they won’t let the poor boy down
Sure as you’re born brought me a silk suit Put luggage in my hand And I woke up high over Alberquerque On a jet to the promised land
Working on a T-bone steak a la carte Flying over to the golden state Ah when the pilot told us in thirteen minutes He would set us at the terminal gate
Swing low chariot come down easy Taxi to the terminal zone Cut your engines and cool your wings And let me make it to the telephone
Los Angeles give me Norfolk Virginia Tidewater four ten o nine Tell the folks back home this is the promised land calling And the poor boy is on the line
Working on a T-bone steak a la carte Flying over to the golden state Ah when the pilot told us in thirteen minutes He would set us at the terminal gate

Happy Song Lyric Sunday and let’s have a great week !!! Blessings Blogger’s
Today I started a gratitude journal again !!! Being thankful can get you through anything. Loving your life can make for a very good day. In life you can suffer many losses, but if you can learn something from those losses then it wasn’t a total loss. I have lost many things, but I can honestly say everything that I’ve been through has taught me something and made me a better person. I love my life, I love my home, I’m a great mom and most of all I love my husband of 41 years. I truly am blessed <3 . I’m not perfect, but I’m pretty good and it’s all about loving yourself and God. I’m thankful for the grace that God has blessed me with. If at the the end of the day all you can say is, “Thank God, this day is over,” then that’s enough. I hope everyone had a great day…Blessings <3
My happy place…I love a world where there are October’s !!!
