What a great way to take a break from a rainy day. It's chilly and rainy, which in a way I enjoy.  I like it when the weather is doing something. This drink reminds me of Christmas, which is why I chose it.  Earlier I made an audio post on Twitter spaces. This is my first audio post. They might be trying to compete with Anchor.FM and some of the other podcasting sites, smart.  This afternoon will be quite busy. I've been working on the DROPS Music Festival,  and so I will continue working on that, as well as downloading and posting the church service to the church's YT channel, I'm also going to continue writing my Gun Violence presentation, which, I think is ready, but I want to edit a slide so it's easier to read.  Here are the upcoming episodes.  My workout this morning was nice. 

I've been traveling all around this morning looking at different open apartments. I thought these were really awesome decorated.  The one with the sunrise though, I own that one. Avakin has such beautiful ways of decorating.

The ocean in the morning is very foggy, but as the morning grew, the horizon became more and more clear as the fog dissipated. I think the same thing can apply to our perspectives of others. Sometimes we may not always see their point of view until it’s revealed either through experiences or listening with an open mind.

After taking a year off because of the foster kids, Tamara decided the time had come to donate again.  It's a good feeling knowing that each donation saves 3 lives. The whole process took about an hour, but the actual donation took about 8 minutes. (2 minutes longer than last time.) 

I bought these boots recently and when I did that, I received an offer for a matching dress for half price.  I love dressing up my avatar. It's so fun to pick out clothes and shoes. I did notice that I would like to change the eye makeup. I prefer black mascara with this sort of outfit. 

I've seen this as a meme before and I think it's just so funny. 😄 It is in this case a reference to coffee. The rain outside is a little chilly, but I never get chilly coffee when I visit Light House Coffee Bar. It's always piping hot, filled to the brim with deliciousness.  This particular drink is called Cafe Mocha.  I chose dark chocolate, but available is White Chocolate and Regular chocolate. 

It seems as though Ms. Winter has struck again. Outside temperature is a cool 33 degrees with a wind chill.  The branches are getting a taste of winter.  The clouds have returned which means my eyes can relax as I drive around town. 

Chocolate Menthe Latte is certainly a delicious coffee drink. The richness of the flavor is a treat to your taste buds. The mint just whispers that it's there without overpowering the rest of the beverage.  Come get yours at Light House Coffee Bar, located inside Catalyst gym in Fort Wayne, Indiana. 

A local worship team shares a new song along with two older ones they have done before. The new one is called God Really Loves Us by Crowder. The other two were Reckless Love and It is Well.  YouTube

It was a Friday afternoon and so Tamara decided that she would get in some extra singing practice. She's recently joined a Christian singing group, (a group she had to audition first for and was accepted.) Today they sang Tremble. Here is a clip.  Instagram

Medium Anchor.FM SoundCloud It was really fun traveling to Mount Airy, Myrtle Beach and Charleston, SC. I am really excited about the ocean footage we recorded for the upcoming music video with the song "Oceans" by Hillsong United.  Are you familiar with this song? Have you visited Myrtle Beach before?

A quick little jaunt to Light House Coffee Bar, located in Catalyst gym in Fort Wayne, Indiana is a necessary addition to your day. The menu features an array of different speciality drinks, this one in particular is Indian Chai Latte. This quaint coffee bar is a quiet place compared to other coffee shops.  The creaminess of the milk and hints of spices are blended perfectly. 

A quick visit to London Fashion designer apartment is well worth your time. The archways are a unique feature of this apartment. Big, spacious rooms make entertaining large groups possible.  A chef's dream kitchen.  Quaint bathroom. 

Having a baby, or getting pregnant in the first place is always exciting. The whole process gets more exciting the further along you go. But for this young couple, their happy day was interrupted by threats of being evicted from their rent to own home.  The landlords called to complain about yet another thing that was forcing the landlord to come closer and closer to evicting them. On this day, the husband told the landlord they just had a miscarriage at 11 weeks. It was going to be their first child, but they will go mow.  So, the wife gets the mower out and starts mowing despite the landlords insisting they didn't have to. The end result is that they ended up moving anyway because the landlords wanted their house back. 

In Myrtle Beach, over the Atlantic, is where they shot down one of the balloons. These boats held the brown containers they put the balloon in.  US Coast Guards clean up Chinese balloon. It goes in brown air conditioned boxes and shipped to Quantico for analysis. https://tamarachaos.blogspot.com/

Several rooms of the Country Inn are haunted. Tv turns on by itself and drawers open on their own.  The good news is though, a Bible can be found in a different drawer, unlike Beach Cove in Myrtle Beach. 

the historic capital of Charleston, West Virginia. They were treated with respect as they walked around the capital admiring the gold top of the building and observing the military memorial. The memorial commemorated the men and women of West Virginia that gave their lives for our country.

For the word of God is alive and powerful. It is sharper than the sharpest two-edged sword, cutting between soul and spirit, between joint and marrow. It exposes our innermost thoughts and desires. Hebrews 4:12 NLT https://bible.com/bible/116/heb.4.12.NLT It was this verse for the most part that inspired us to create this video:  Personal Trainer

Avakin has a new game right now-Radiant Ballroom. I have just received the second prize.  A white hoodie.

Here is another fabulous drink from Light House Coffee Bar. I will be visiting different places next week, so stay tuned! 😊☕

It's been fun visiting Mount Airy and Myrtle Beach. Here are some pictures that give highlights of the trip. I also have plans to make a video of the pictures so that everything can be contained in one section. I'm going to do the same with other trips we've done. I think this will help me remember places I've been. https://photos.app.goo.gl/pzkcs8jVYkwEUPyh7 Here is an album if you're interested.
