Boardgame ($5) we got for Eve, but she later refused it, & gave it back without opening, just like the last gift we got her a long time ago. That was a letdown and kinda bummed me out. Anyone want a $5 NCIS game? I don't.
Anyway, the 2 leather care kits ($4 total), however, became instrumental in cleaning a $15 box of bdsm equipment we purchased at a yard sale the following year. They also were used on our leather couches a bunch. Great find.

BACKSTORY: Got up around 7:00 AM, made it out driving by 7:38 AM and went out until [forgot:estimating 12:38PM] for a total of about 4 hours, 25 minutes (because we spent ~35 minutes eating).
Spent $54.67 plus ~$8.53 gas for 46.7 miles of driving (15 mpg @ $2.74/G), for a total cost of $63.20.
We drove to 29 yard sales, stopping at 19 (66%) of them [but one was a 50-vendor boy scouts sale, so this count is deceptive].
We made 36 purchases (28 items) for a total estimated value of $436.61, leading to a profit/savings of $373.41.
So in essence, we multiplied our $63.20 investment by 6.9X.
(Also, if you think about it, the profit counts for even more when you consider that we have to earn $~427 on the job, pre-tax, in order to take home the $373 in cash that we saved. How long does $ of disposable income take to earn, vs the 4.41666 hrs we spent here?)
Anyway, this works out to a *post-tax* "wage" of $84.55/hr as a couple or $40.27/hr per person.

Prior to my Wordlwide Wizardry ceremony last night: the tools of my spiritual trade. I did not have any taken whilst I undertook the ritual as it was so so personal. I left my body at one stage, felt my self astrally projecting all over the place then returning. This happened when I gazed into the Obsidian mirror and suddenly my reflection disappeared beore my eys and I `entered` the mirror as I prayed for all of you that asked for requests. And I mean ALL of you...Holy water was drank, lemonbalm was drank and a small glass of red wine symbolising the blood of life. I can assure you that there really are some life changing events going to happen in your lives now..we have grown even b more together in Love...after I had finished I felt as though my entire life force had gone out of me and to everyone I knew or anyone who needed me. This was a very good thing as I needed my spirit to travel to you, to give you healing, peace,Love and inner joy that money cannot buy. On the next photo I shall make a list of the tools on the table. Thank you all for linking in with me, joining me in prayer knowing that together, we can grow in Love and Wisdom...our small offering to the universe and of its creator, to the angels and our guides. To the faerie folk and the magick of nature...I may not be a rich perseon financially but spiritually I feel I have won the lottery of Life! Blessings to each and every one of you!
Ximenia americana (Tallowwood, Hog Plum) flowers just opening at Juno Dunes.
Walking along a rain drenched path the most amazing fragrance engulfed me!. It was magical and unexpected. I searched the scrub and discovered it originated from a few tiny yellow-green fuzzy flowers. Surprisingly, it was my old friend the Hog Plum!
I don't know how I'd missed the scent in previous years, perhaps I thought it was Palmetto blooming. (The orange "cable" running through the frame is a parasitic Dodder vine, Cuscuta exaltata. The Hog Plum itself is semi-parasitic.)
If weather permits, I'll go back next week and visit these again, just sitting with them and basking in the fragrance while they are still blooming :-)
The above image was taken on a bright and shiny day in December a few weeks ago. It was one of the few photos I made for my good friend in Bali, Eka. The product samples were all post-mailed to Jakarta and I did the shoot at my convenience time. She loved them and I hope she will make more great sales in 2009!
The theory and practice in the treatment of common poultry lice - nits (lice eggs) and adult nymphs with Essential Oil of Eucalyptus Citriodora. How and why it works and how and where to apply it. A treatment I learned from a fellow organic poultry keeper, who had shadowed an organic vet as part of her continuing education in phytotherapy and aromatherapy.

Taken on this past Mother's Day , I am working on a little side project and I thought my friend's balcony with all it's delicious white splendor would make for a pretty background. Early in the morning I started out quite chirpy, but after 20 minutes, the Florida heat took over and I began to melt. This project will include quarterly selfies, my health, exercise and fashion tips for women over 50, my diet and skincare routine, and general Q & A's on "youthing".
I also enjoy shooting STOCK images, and I submitted some of these to GETTY, and this one was selected.

That is my goal for 2018 - to take a more natural approach to everything. I do believe in traditional medicine, but I also have concerns about it. Right now I'm fighting a dreaded cold - fingers crossed this foot rub either speeds up the healing process or at least lessens the symptoms. Wishing all my flickr friends a very happy, healthy 2018!
