#5JoysFriday!

My first three are more treasures unearthed from the garage:
1. Beautiful blue glass vases which I have filled with larkspur from the garden
2. My brother‘s soccer shirt from when he was a kid in the early 80s, featuring the name of their sponsor: “Drugs-N-Such” 🤣
3. My summer library reading program certificates from childhood, one of which proclaims: “The Sizzler Proudly Salutes You”
Continued ⤵️

More joys (unrelated to organizing the garage 😆):
4. Finally getting my music library (~100GB) back from a failed hard drive
5. Dinner with one of my best friends last night + an early birthday gift of a book, a bookish game, and an Emotional Support Dumpster Fire (gifted in the book-themed gift bag we‘ve been trading back and forth since college)

Thank You @debinhawaii for #5JoysFriday & for the tag 💖🌺💝.

1- Fruit 😋💝.

2- the magic of stumbling across something you have been looking for after having given up the search 🪄💖.

3- The 6th book in the Old Kingdom series has been added to my library 🪄📚💝 still super excited about this 😂📚💝.
#theoldkingdomreviewedbyanncrystal.

4- meeting a stranger in a parking lot who claimed to be psychic and who read me too well 🪄🤩🆒.

👇

AnnCrystal 5- had to go to Walmart for necessities that we haven't yet sourced elsewhere (I know 👀🥺🤐). Checked the entertainment dept. while there (Of course). There wasn't anything two-spirited, but there were woman/culture writers, fantasy, Spanish language books, etc. I know that Walmart is rolling back DEI, yet they haven't seemed to make it about their products, at least not yet. Perhaps they're reconsidering🥳🤞🏼.

AnnCrystal *anything two-spirited (LGBTQTS+) that I noted...there may have been, and it escaped my notice.

Sace Fruit is awesome! I have discovered that the best way to find something is to stop looking for it (or buy a replacement 🙄) 6h
TheBookHippie We use Walmart it‘s the least of the evils here. Plus I use delivery and it‘s the jobs of the immigrants here. 🤷🏻‍♀️ not perfect, but local is hugely expensive and owned by right wing extremist. 5h
AnnCrystal @AmyG truly indeed 👏🏼😉👍🏼🪄💖. 2h
AnnCrystal @Sace I absolutely love fruit 😋👍🏼. And that does seem like the best way to find something 🧐🪄🤩...I really do hate replacing something I already have. 2h
AnnCrystal @TheBookHippie I read that, “Walmart aims to power 50% of its operations with renewable energy by 2025 and 100% by 2035, while also aiming to reach zero emissions from all its vehicles and transportation network, including long-haul trucks, by 2040.“

We are trying our best to support mom and pop shops even more now, unfortunately, we've experienced some impossibly rude customer service from some. Thursday, we left a shop quite upset. 👇

AnnCrystal I wondered, does this guy want to sell his merchandise, or is he trying to run an exhibit for show only. Perhaps he assumed we didn't have the funds?? What he did have prices on were extremely expensive... (edited) 2h

Thanks for the tag, @DebinHawaii !

#5JoysFriday

1. My boys…always!
2. Zeke was above the kitchen cabinets for the first time in weeks (a sign he was feeling perky thanks to medicine)
3. Opening Day for baseball!
4. Book mail, especially Jane Austen-related book mail
5. Litsy

KadaGul How is Zeke doing? 12h
TheBookHippie Yay Zeke! Hope you got good news. 12h
Librarybelle @KadaGul @TheBookHippie His ultrasound results came back yesterday—while he does not have any large tumors, he definitely has GI issues and his lymph nodes around his stomach and intestine are enlarged. It could be related to his chronic pancreatitis, or it could be early signs of cancer. Today, I scheduled him to see a specialist at the end of April, who will hopefully be able to do an endoscopic biopsy of those areas to rule out cancer. 12h

kspenmoll Oh I am so glad he is healing!!! 12h
Librarybelle @kspenmoll He‘s having good days and bad days. He‘ll be on steroids for awhile until we determine whether or not he has cancer. At least the steroids are helping him at the moment! 11h
BooksandCoffee4Me @Librarybelle oh, I hope he will be ok! 10h
BooksandCoffee4Me Baseball, yes! Who‘s your team? Dodgers here - I‘m born and raised in LA. 💙🤍 10h
Librarybelle Thanks, @BooksandCoffee4Me ! I‘m a Phillies fan! I‘m less than 3 hours away from Philly, plus gotta love the Phanatic. 😂 10h

1. My progress with my full hip replacement seems to be much better after the failed dynamic hip screw operation I had initially.
2. I went out for my first non-hospital related trip out & bought the tagged book!
3. I no longer have the dressing on my scar.
4. There's talk of possibly getting another cat after having to put Jaffa down last year.
5. Crunchy nut corn flakes don't cause my blood sugars to go sky high!

Deblovestoread Lovely list of joys! 9h
AnnCrystal 🙏🏼💝💝💝💝💝. 7h

1. Ordered the tagged book, excited about it.
2. Less social media lately, have miraculously found more time for sunset walks.
3. Been making progress on my certification.
4. Fell in love with this pup I found wandering on our street (pic doesn‘t do her justice). Found her owners. I miss her but glad I met her (and that she‘s safe).
5. Had lots of one on one time with my kiddos 🥰
