Kettle told me to shut up, stop stressing and wait.
Wait said “Yea, chillax Cassandra! This is EXACTLY why you are all stressed out!.”
Nosey got all up in the business and called instigator so they could laugh at my anxt.
Next grew annoyed over being woken up and told everyone to shut it already!
Kettle, now annoyed, FINALLY howled it’s displeasure.
Steam, now also mad, spew all over every which way.
I didn’t care. I wanted coffee.
I demanded for spoon to get to work spooning my coffee, cream and sugar into my coffee cup.
Coffee cup tried to let me know it’s not very smart to get smart and demanding with spoon. No telling what spoon may do.
*Foreboding and forewarning music starts to play.*
Undaunted, I told spoon to hurry up already.
A few minutes later…
Coffee presented itself to me. Annoyed, I snatched lid and huffing whacked it on my cup. Lid AND cup snorted in outrage. Spoon told lid and cup not to worry and quietly said “hehehe” where only lid and cup could hear…
*Cassandra takes a sip of coffee*
Hhmmmm.
Hhmmm?
*Cassandra wonders why the coffee tastes weird*
*Cassandra peels lid of coffee cup and wonders why the coffee looks so darned light?!*
Oppps.
*Cassandra, being a tad stressed, accidentally forgets to add coffee to the cream and sugar*
*Cassandra decides to cut herself some slack. Cassandra apologies to cup and lid and pitifully asks spoon to make some coffee.*
LOL.
Unfortunately, a true story. Just thought I would send a smile your way, beloveds.
Don’t allow stress to stress you. Make the most of things and keep it moving.
Keep going. Keep trying. None of us can know the outcome of our try.
Be encouraged.

Note: You are worthy. You are worth it. You are worthwhile.
The world needs the love that you have inside. The world needs you. The world needs what you have. The world needs what you are.
I have been praying for you and asking God to help you to continue to be you. I have been asking a life to open its doors to you. I have been asking The Universe to cash in your bounty.
Your life is more precious than you will ever know or understand. I have been up all night praying for you. I have been asking God in life to show you the way. Oo show you your path. To help you get there.
I don’t know what life has in store for you. I pray that your day and your year be filled with fantastic blessings. I asked for your path to be made straight. I asked for your ears to be open so that you can hear where you need to go. I ask that your eyes open so that you can see how to make your dreams come true for your life.
Be encouraged this day. This is an amazing day. This day was made for you and I to enjoy. I plan on enjoying my day. Please enjoy yours.

Note: The universe needs what only you can provide. Get on out there and live your life. Dream big. Then make it happen. Some kind of way. I love you. so does He.
I hope you are okay. I am thankful for you. I have enjoyed your comments, your humor, and your CARE. I look forward to more emails! I owe you on or two…*delicious shiver*.
There are several folk, like Shannon, that I would like to call out and say thanks but afraid they will go into hiding. I have been praying for and thinking about Shannon every since she commented the other day. I want to ask her how she is doing. I want to tell her that I wish I could take the hard out of life for her. If she happens by, beloveds, let her know she is loved and appreciated.
There are a few folk who regularly stop by and wink as they scroll through. You know who you are. You are selfless. You are giving. You don’t force yourself on others. Yet, you are persons of integrity and you care. You think your efforts have not been seen. They have been.
I thank everyone who has stopped by. Every heart is important to me. I wish I had enough money to pay every bill, to lighten every load.
I can’t do that. I can pray. I do. I can sing terrible love songs to and about you. I do. I can tell you awfully corny jokes in the middle of the night. I do.
Ah, beloveds. Be encouraged. Keep looking UP. Keep moving FORWARD.
Be sure and work on your dreams today. Be sure to love on you today. Take care of that beautiful soul of yours.
I have no idea. Neither do you. I’m going to find out. I suggest you do the same.

Note: Keep going beloveds. You very well may be just one step away from a miracle! I dare you to find out. I am going to find out for myself. Today may be my day. I hope…
Note: Keep going. You are on the right track! It’s important to remind yourself where you ARE. Don’t get discouraged over where you think you SHOULD be. Tell should to go kick some rocks, beloveds. There will ALWAYS be someone telling you what you should be doing. Don’t add yourself to that list.
You are doing your best. Let your best be enough. It is. You are growing. Yes, the long wait gets terribly old.
I wish I were holding my dreams in my hands right now. I am partially. I’m doing my best to be content with the partial. Geeeeeeeez, God. MUST You be sooooooooooooo slow? Asking for many friends.
I love, love, love watching Japanese cooking channels!
I love how the owners of the little shops get up super early to prepare for the day.
Chopping vegetables.
Making homemade noodles.
Scrubbing down tables.
Preparing fresh grease for tempura.
Cutting up meat for various meals.
Preparing soup for udon 🍜 noodles.
I realize it takes quite a long time just to get one meal prepared. We sit down for a meal and want it quick, fast and in a hurry.
How often, beloveds, do we take into consideration how long it takes to prepare a meal? I know I don’t think too much on that. I just want my food. Hot. Well prepared. Right now!
The last few years have been teaching me that preparation takes an awfully long time. I’m trying to be good with that. I’m better. Still, there are times when I wanna tell life to just hurry up already and get me my plate.
I want to be there already. I want to be experiencing the change already. I want..
Hang in there beloved. We are being prepared for greatness. Do you have been uprooted so that we can be planted in larger soil. We have outgrown where we were. We are being prepared for where we have yet to go. In the meantime, hold fast.
Don’t give up. Not just yet.

Note: Bing uprooted has been a pain in the hoo-hah. It has been inconvenient. It has been no fun. Not for one second. I was not ready for the upheaval. Damn it, I was just not ready!
Still hard times came anyway. I will be so grateful when I can speak of these moments in the past tense. I have gone through truly difficult things before. I will find my way through this. fresh hell!
I am praying for all of us. I am hopeful some of us will make our way to our dream soon. Maybe it will be you. Maybe it may be me. One can hope. I hope. I hope for you.
One step.
One step.
One step.
You are loved.
You are NOT alone.
Keep on being…YOU!
