HEALING SURROUNDS ME

Since my “waah-waah” moment a few days ago, Elohim has livened things up and I’ve been able to get out and about more 😊

My owies are healing nicely, though the eyebrow gouge is taking a bit longer – but at least the discoloration and scabbing has disappeared. And I am no longer wearing my sunglasses in the house – I rummaged around and found my old glasses πŸ˜‰

My facial bruising & cheek scrape, as well as my shoulder scrape & bruising are pretty much gone ...
And the eyebrow glue is sloughing off - which means that healing is on schedule, too.
My old glasses will have to do, until I can buy new ones in September.

I spent the better part of today, up Oak Point Road schmoozing and relaxing with friends. It’s good to have some local friends – especially with obidenflation hitting hard and frequently.

I still can’t wear makeup, and washing my hair is about as far as I can go with that … but everything is right on schedule: Snafu’s don’t last forever.

It was hot today; but hotter is predicted for Wednesday.

Upper 90's weather today, so I wore Bermuda shorts and a jazzed-up shell, to visit friends this afternoon. Showers & washing my hair is okay ... but still no makeup; until my eyebrow heals completely. My exposed skin sizzled today - I tried not to worry about the 'new skin' areas of my healing body.

There is healing joy in the gift of friendship 😊

Five hours later, I was home again – and watering my garden area.

There is healing in my garden area: not just the soothing time spent there … but everything planted has healing proprieties, as well as adding color to my world.

Pretty 2-tone orange 'Tango' Geranium.
Very nice double-petal 'Salmon' colored Geranium.
Green Zucchini; zucchini is literally a 'miracle food' - it benefits every part of your body!
Golden Purslane.
Red Patio Apple Tree; dwarf size.
Violas & Nasturtiums in the sweet ‘Candy Corn’ beds.

'Candy' Sweet Corn.

I need to pull some dandelion plants and deadhead the Shasta daisies, but it was too hot to do it this afternoon; and I’ll be gone again, tomorrow. Maybe Wednesday morning before the sun become a hellish heated orb in the sky πŸ˜‰

As I was kicking off my thongs, the phone trilled: I was being invited to lunch next Tuesday. This invite is very welcome. I’m glad my face will be presentable when the day arrives.

Time to get together & do some catch-up πŸ˜‰
Pre-accident picture: it'll be a while yet before I can doll myself up, again; but that’s okay – Friends don’t care.

Smiling, I finished a few more booties – there is healing in productive activity.

There is healing in time spent with country friends.

There is healing in the Garden Boxes Bob built for me.

There is healing taking place in me.

My heart is filled with gratitude for all the healing that surrounds me in 2022 😊
