Playing the lottery.

Boom πŸ’₯

Now gimme all the money!

Screw working, ugh.

Now, on a not so β€œwinning” matter, I’ve been trying to just go about my business, the doom and gloom of the news isn’t something that I allow to rule my life too much. I’ve been intent not to blog a lot about this stupid storm.

Unless it’s to show some amazing wild Sky weather.

Moon πŸŒ™ from last night

A bit of ignorance is bliss.

I’ve lived here my entire life, let me know when it’s actually coming and I’ll get a few things together.

It always calms me, it seems

I used to have coworkers ask me why I was so calm, but…I’m not going anywhere. That’s that.

What I am pretty freaking annoyed about is the store shelves:

Come on people, really? What are you doing with zillions of eggs?

I really hate people, sometimes.

Happy Hump Day! πŸ₯š

  4. Living without the burden of work and financial worries is a dream for many, definitely for us. Ideally, I would love to get paid for writing or sell enough books to support myself and my family as well as help my closest friends.

    The chaos of people and the overstocking of groceries is truly madness. Get The Essentials People !!!

    Above all, I hope and Pray for your safety. I’m in constant touch with most of my family who live in Tampa. May the Lord’s protection be with everyone during this hurricane.

    • I know, finances are hard. It’s rough to do the same job day in and day out and not really feel like it’s worth it at times. πŸ™ and yeah the groceries are a nightmare. Totally unnecessary panic buying. πŸ™„ super frustrating when you’re just trying to get the bare minimum as it is.
      Thank you so much for your kindness Willie 😊 that truly means a lot and I hope your family in Tampa will be safe πŸ™ definitely wouldn’t want to be there during this. Yes, may we be surrounded by protection and light ✨ thanks again

  5. J. D. Rockefeller would visualize counting out $10,000 every single night before he went to sleep, also known to constantly respond with “I’m bound to be rich!” effectively creating his own reality, makes me wonder why attention is currently the most valuable currency in the world, Good Read | Keep it Real ~Realitology~

    • I think we can create our own reality, most definitely. Have you ever heard about how Jim Carrey wrote himself a 10 million dollar check and then became a successful actor? Master manifestor, I’d say!

    • Thanks John! Yeah, it’s a good indicator of greed and hoarding type behavior as opposed to maybe using money for a good purpose. And thank you! Appreciate that 😊 I will do my best πŸ™

  17. Come on people, share a little. What are they going to do with all those groceries when the power goes out? Watch them rot? Gasoline, water, and ice. Get yours and stay safe, Laura. Send more photos! You’re my boots on the ground reporter for South FL. 😬❀️

    β€œNow can you see those dark clouds gathering up ahead? They’re gonna wash this planet clean like the Bible said. You can hold on steady, try to get ready, but everybody’s gonna get wet. Don’t think it won’t happen just because it hasn’t happened yet.”-Jackson Browne, The Road and the Sky

  18. Would it change me? This is the lottery question I ask myself. I’m a weirdo, money has very little value to me therefore I simply let it slip through my fingers. Need money and I’ve got some? Here ya go.
    I do love the moon. It’s a thing with me and I appreciate the reminder. Thank you. May you find harmony through these times.

  27. Even down here, the stores were a little crazy, but I’d imagine the closer to the path, the supplies were down accordingly. Sigh. I was so concerned for my friend, so stayed up a good portion of the night. Paying for it today. Wanting some of that deep rest you wrote about. πŸ˜€

      • She’s just fine, like she said she’d be. πŸ˜€ I’m a little superstitious around hurricanes, feeling like if I take them lightly they’ll be worse. Sigh.
