The pansies are blooming too 😊 .. . . #somuchcolor #springflowers🌸 #makingacomeback #purple

I was talking to the 65+ year old grocery clerk as I checked out recently and she said things weren't bad until people started getting nasty about items the store had put a limit on. . . . When I saw the signs in the store I thought they were worded well. Something like, "Please be considerate of others and purchase only one." . . . Over the years I've heard nurses "need a shakedown," "nurses are greedy". . . . I've watched these conglomerate medical (some supposedly non-profit) businesses purposely keep a revolving door on the front of their facilities continually running short staffed all because of the "nursing shortage" (a shortage of nurses? Or a shortage of nurses who will work under the conditions they maintain? Or smoke and mirrors?). . . . I see the layoffs of the greedy nurses by American companies who then outsource telephonic positions overseas. . . . And Now -... suddenly we're all heroes. The grocery clerks, the sanitation workers, nurses, restaurant workers, etc. . . . I call BS. Don't patronize. The words sound nice, but they don't match the actions of corporate leaders that I've seen for the last 10 years. . . . And now we shall consolidate even more and squish the little businesses that are left. King to the gigantors. . . . But not really. King to the people who show mercy to others on the daily. Mercy shall be theirs 💕 Our faith is still here even if the churches are empty. . . . And for anyone who ever makes it to the end of my captions 😊 (TY for listening) you'll be glad to know that's all I'm gonna say about it. . . . #viburnum #springflowers🌸 #sweet #easter

Don't worry I'm not swimming in a sea of negativity. In fact I even wrote a recent blog post on keeping a positive mindset. . . . Curiosity is one of my strengths. And I can tell by the news updates that I'm not the only yo-yo out here with questions. . . . If you asked me to jump I wouldn't say how high I would probably say - why? . . . Sometimes strengths can become your weaknesses and I realize that, so I can turn it off when it's getting out of hand. Welcome to My Brain 🤣 . . . I wouldn't trade it because it is part of what allows me to surf the waves of life. Righteous! Righteous! . . . Little squirt has her exit buddies and is doing just fine 😊 . . . #surfthewaves #righteous #surfsandsun #150yearsyoung #concretegardenstatuary #concrete #seaturtles #surfsandsea #waves #thisisfine

I'm the first to hop on in to the pediatrician to get my kids vaccinated. To protect those I interact with I get my flu shot most years. I'm all about herd immunity. . . . Cholera, shigella, norovirus, bird flu, influenza A, influenza B, west nile, hantavirus, mers, sars, covid19, zika... . . . How easy is it to develop a vaccine for these? Is the reason we don't have a vaccine for all of them simply because of red tape? Not profitable? Not a threat to relevant areas? Hard to develop? . . . I would also be hip to hop on in and see if I Already Had coronavirus. Is there a test for that? If so, who is it available to? How much does it cost? . . . I have more questions than I do answers these days. . . . If I give blood, do they test it for covid19? If so, do I get the results of that test? . . . My questions go on and on. I wonder when my brain will stop. I realize I could stop myself from asking whenever I want. But I'm not done mulling it all over yet. . . . #thisisfine #rabbit #easter #quarantine #cement #cementgardenstatuary #hip #hop #hiptothehop

🤷🏼‍♀️ . . . I hope this whole episode of our lives brings awareness to medical care in the US and the importance of taking care of yourself. . . . And I'm not saying it to advance my agenda, - although I do want to do that 😊 ...I'm saying it because a lot of what is scaring people is not new. . . . Hospitals get full and have to go on diversion. Sometimes more than one hospital in the same city is on diversion. Sometimes so many hospitals need to go on diversion that it essentially can't be done. That's when you see stretchers of patients lined up in the halls of the emergency department waiting for a bed. This is not a new phenomenon. . . . ICUs run full. . . . When a patient elsewhere in the hospital becomes sicker, someone less sick in the ICU has to be transferred out. This is not new. Decisions have to be made. . . . We trust that the care will be there when we need it. And as we are seeing, - it might not be the care you envisioned. . . . So as I said, I hope we see this as an inspiration to build health as our baseline. So that our bodies have the best chance of fighting illness 💪 . . . Mental health, nutritional health, fitness, good hygiene, - that's the recipe for a healthy body. Lifestyle can be good medicine. . . . You don't have to take my word for it. Use some quarantine down time to Google some of my favorites: . . . T. Colin Campbell & Plantpure communities has a Jumpstart beginning April 19th. . . . . Dean Ornish & Ornish Lifestyle Medicine - he speaks it so clearly! . . . Dr. Barnard & PCRM has a 21 Day Kickstart you can begin any day you choose. It's FREE! . . . The Esselstyn family has it going on too. Start with dad. . . . Being stuck at home navigating this episode can be overwhelming. But it can also be a chance to get a new perspective 🌱🌸 . . . If anyone can thrive under hard times, it's you! . . . #yougotthis . . . #phlox #springflowers🌸 #sparkle #springwalks #lifestylemedicine #CoachCat #contribute #theearthlaughsinflowers

Everyday I see new flowers blooming. . . . #springflowers🌸 #spring #springwalks
