My eclipse moment...

My neighbors were kind enough to get me out of the house, had glasses for me and all.Sat me down and I laughed so hard, and it was a weird experience seeing daylight ut thru glasses darkness and the eclipse.I know there is someone bigger than all of us doing this awesome stuff.I have a renewed hope, that even though we have agency, Heavenly Father has us in the cradle of His hands.Environmental degration, foods etc etc happen and I'm a mess of genetics.But for today, I have been loved, I can sit on the couch or lay in a bed but I am a whole person....Pain is hell but joy is jubilation.I wouldn't know one without the other.So the eclipse was great but gave me a sense, I am not alone in this universe.......!

Doubled51 I remember (and hold on to it) a quote from about 30 yrs ago: I am in the Habd of Jesus and my Father has his hand tightly around both our hands"

I am happy for you. What part of the country are you from. I am from Massachusetts so it wasn't that big of an eclipse here but my sister is from S. Carolina and she had a great time. I watched it on TV that was awesome. They say in 7 years. It will be stronger in the North East so I'm going to plan something then.

Again I am happy for you!

I live 35 miles north of Boston and yes it is pretty here. Where I live it is very quiet I used to live in Salem Ma the witch city no witches there. We don't have the mountains there like your mountains. My doctors office is in Boston, it is next to Fenway Park where the Red Sox play baseball. I remember some time I would ask if they have a game and some times I would change my appointment. I like it here except if we have snow.

House being paid off is an awesome feeling. When we sold our house and moved to our new place in the hills of North Ga we were able to pay cash. No mortgage is a wonderful feeling. After almost 47 years out of debt. Its great. Y'all have a wonderful day.

We live basically around the corner where my two children were able to go and learn to ski which is a great 👍 think they were able to go on trips with the Boy Scout and friends to go skiing 🎿 and when they went they could do skiing or snowboarding 🏂 which was all inclusive for less than $200.00 not bad for rental transactions lessons. Hay you know how you think we're my husband and I good parents and as I am remembering those days yes we were but I tried to see that didn't go well my shoulder meet a 🌲 and I that point I decided it wasn't for me. I didn't get hurt. Ok I'm done have a good 😊 day
