Hazy Moon and Sea Glass Votives

So, the TV news told us about this super moon.. when did that become such big news?  I don't remember news people making such a big deal of moon activity until the last few years, or maybe I've just become more in tune to moon trivia.. but this one is supposed to be the "Super Blue Blood Moon Eclipse".  So, I kept looking for the moon to come around our darned forest and show itself.  When it finally came around, the skies were filled with hazy misty *crap*.  So, the image below is the best I could get and it's not clear at all.  :-(

See the fuzzy halo around it?  Bah humbug.. by the time I went to bed the skies were misting and cloudy and you could not see it at all.  SO.. there was no way I was setting the alarm for 3:40 am to try to see the eclipse.  Pffft.

My dear husband and I both saw our doctor yesterday for our annual "wellness exam".  :-)  He was very pleased with my A1C was 5.6.. normal is 5.7!  So, he suggested I cut the dose on one of my meds.  He was also pleased on my 20 lb. weight loss and giving up SUGAR.  Then we headed out to a very late lunch.  We went to our steak place, Bumpers Grill, and he had the Osso Bucco Pork shoulder roast.  I had to laugh at it when it was served.. it looked kind of primitive with the bone sticking out of the top.  LOL!  Kind of caveman-like.

I had the filet with sauteed mushrooms, no potato, no bread, no croutons on my salad.  

Our waitress had the prettiest braided hair, I asked her who did it for her and she said.. herself!  I must say, you'd have to be pretty good to do that on your own head.

I found some new votive candle holders while I was perusing the internet, they are called "sea glass".. and you know how I love sea glass!  I got the candles at the same time and the name of them is "Tropical Waters" and oh my goodness.. they smell like you're on an island with the sea lapping on the shore and the faint aroma of jasmine and plumeria.  

I might have to have some fun with these and perhaps put some of my agates and sand on a platter and place these amongst them.  I will be sure to bring these the next time we take the trailer to the beach.  I got these from Partylite.

I have to head to the dentist soon.. it's like walking in front of the firing squad.  Are you like me when it comes to dental visits?  Then I'm off to swimming.   ((hugs)), Teresa :-)
