I know some of you are like me: we don't need to be constantly bombarded with JUST BREAKING NEWS!!!! I enjoy visiting channels that are calm, offer encouragement and humor. The ones that leave you inspired to do better, be better. May I recommend Shannon Guerra's channel for your reading pleasure? Her channel makes me want to sip a warm cup of tea as I leisurely peruse her offerings. Enjoy sweet friends! https://t.me/shannonguerra

If you feel like you’re merely treading water, find something that makes you laugh. A slight grin, a snicker, some giggles or a deep belly laugh –it’s all good! And never, ever hesitate giving the Elites your scorn. Let’s turn our frustration away from our fellow man because they are not the ones who should be vilified. The Elites are pure rubbish who deserve to be ridiculed, mocked, derided and belittled. They deserve absolute contempt.

Forgive me. Sometimes I may have to re-post something because I just can’t think of anything to write about after hearing, “mom” 47,589,071 times. In a half hour. And sometimes, I just crack myself up. Here’s an example: In a recent CNN interview with the effeminate, carping Don Lemon, the gaudy thespian Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez once again overplayed the daft undercover communist when she said that both the Republican base and the Republican Party are embracing “white supremacist core logic.” Here’s what else the collectivist boors deduced: • Anyone not identifying as a garish Stalinist is by default, a white supremacist • Republicans made the moon out of cheese • Science has proven that only white babies can inherit the hate gene • It was Republicans who made the US flag racist by not including all the colors representing the LBGQT123%#!?POOP+=&< community • God gave syndicalists Bernie Sanders to make up for Thomas Jefferson • Republicans make biological women have babies in order to exclude trans-women • The Bill of Rights is riddled with covert white supremacy principles • Republicans invented exaggerated shoulder pads, leg warmers, Windbreakers and the BeDazzler –all white supremacist advances • Care Bears are white supremacists disguised as Republicans Uh-oh. Looks like Lilliputian Lemon™ and Featherheaded AOC™ didn’t get the memo on that last point 👇🏻

I've been thinking about starting a designated time for us to share recipes, tips, food prepping -things of that nature. Each week can be a different theme. For this week's theme, let's share tips on how to make the food stretch* Share below 👇🏻 *How many cheeky comments will this garner? 🤔

Well, I guess I’ve been too busy snickering at stupid politicians, reading The Far Side, watching videos of giraffes playing the kazoo and eating cookies because I haven’t been giving much thought to Truth Social. So when Trump mentioned it during today’s rally I moseyed on over there... and lo’ and behold I’m in! Guess they’re good at eliminating the bots, but not the goofballs 🙃 Still tinkering around and learning the ropes, but managed to get a few posts up. Don’t know who snagged the first ThinMint but it ain’t me. Got the smiley face “logo” on my account so you know 🙂 @ThinMint2

Good News Friday! April 15th - April 22nd, 2022 Please share all the good news that has occurred over the last week -even personal tidbits!

I just watched the sun rise, its rays protruding into the starry night like a stretch that comes after a long nap. There is something special -divine even, about the peacefulness of an early morning. Though I prefer the quietness at the end of a busy day, it does my soul good to soak in the quietness at the beginning of what will be a busy day. Meeting the dawn is like greeting an old friend. It felt natural to chat with God, to seek Him before I got distracted with my own random thoughts. How anyone can start their day without actively reaching out to Him is beyond me. The older I get, the easier it becomes to acknowledge that I desperately need Him, every minute, every hour. As I sat in the Adirondack chair, marveling over the lightening sky on one side and the dark sky on the other side, a tiny bird appeared on the deck rail, serenading me with its song. Its presence made me smile and wish I could sing its song back to it. Before it flew off I did wish it a good morning. Do you ever feel like God does something seemingly so tiny like that just for you? You spot a flower growing in an odd place, or watch trees sway in the breeze, or follow a nature trail, or gaze at the twinkling stars, or look on as a creature frolics... and feel a calming contentedness. That’s God wooing you, inviting you to draw closer to Him. We tend to notice these things, these sweet and gentle gestures, in the pauses. We ought to give up more of the busyness so we can embrace the restful beauty of God.

Hello sweet friends. I hemmed and hawed about saying anything but realized I need to trust y’all will understand. We’re doing some R&R this week. Nothing huge. Just need to step away from the appointments, the noise, the busyness. We need some us time. Some family time. Some healing. Humor is still a must so dust off all your funnies for Wednesday’s Comedy Night. Good news will drop as well, however without my usual research since I’m taking a short break. So collect all the good news stories throughout the week, bring your own good news, and we’ll share on Friday. Thank you for the kind words, the continued prayers and all the heartening support you offer. We pray you His peace, His joy and His blessings. ♥️ ThinMint

We are doing something a little different this Easter weekend. We are not focusing on making sure we do certain traditions. We are not going to be in a state of bereavement. It’s too easy to make these things about us. This is about Jesus. And when I think about Jesus, I feel awe, tenderness, and a warm love that nestles deeply inside my heart. Smile, laugh a lot, embrace those with you, pray with a believing heart and express the thankfulness you feel. Think about Jesus, and how He ministered, how He forgave, how He encouraged, how He pointed to our Heavenly Father, how He loves. We were given the most precious gift through Jesus. And what do we do when we receive a gift from someone we know who loves us? We smile, laugh, embrace the gift giver, and bless them. We love because He first loved us.

Question: How are some of these things 'good news'? Answer: The good news points to the fact that people are fighting back -that evil is being called out, exposed and fought against. Another perspective to consider: these highlights point out that something is being done, something is being brought to the light, something is happening. For too long these evil elitists have done their eviling in the dark -we didn't even know what was going on! For example, it's not good news that people are dying from the covid vaccine. The good news is that data from these vile entities can no longer be suppressed; the good news is that we have the data to show those who are still asleep. The good news information also helps us Believers direct our prayers. We can bring specific prayers to The Most High! The good news is that you are informed, and can make better decisions on how you are going to react, prepare, help, pray. The good news is that The Light is exposing where the darkness is for us. The good news is Luke 8:17: "For there is nothing hidden that will not be disclosed, and nothing concealed that will not be known or brought out into the open." The good news is the previous verse tells us what to do with The Light: "No one lights a lamp and hides it in a clay jar or puts it under a bed. Instead, they put it on a stand, so that those who come in can see the light."
