Who's Awesome?, Saving Shelter Dogs, Never Too Old To Learn

Hey there my lovely friends!

I love having you join me here in our feel-corner spot of the internet.

Get comfy with your favorite beverage because we’re diving into a world of positivity, motivation, wellness, and uplifting news. Ready? Let’s glow and grow together!

🌸 Positive Corner

“To wish you were someone else is to waste the person you are.” ~ Anonymous

Wow, isn’t that quote just what we need to hear? It’s a gentle reminder to embrace yourself because you ... are ... special.

There’s no one else quite like you, and that’s your superpower.

So, let’s celebrate our quirks, talents, and everything that makes us who we are.

You are perfectly you, and that’s enough!

🧘‍ Motivation in Motion

Meet Julie Starr… a remarkable woman who’s giving shelter dogs a new lease on life.

Julie’s remarkable journey showcases how one person’s love and dedication can transform lives, both furry and human.

Her commitment to helping these pups find forever homes is truly inspiring.

Let's take a page from Julie’s book and remember that our actions, big and small, can make a world of difference.

😊 Self Care In Action

If you're like me, you hate to wait forever for devices to charge. 

I mean, seriously, 6 hours for a laptop?! 4 hours for a phone?!

Sure, power banks work nicely - when you have them handy. Usually mine is my travel bag not my wall socket. And really, I want my laptop and phone charged at home - fast.

So I went looking around for a fast charger at a good price ... 

and I found one!

Say goodbye to slow charging and hello to Zippy Charger – your favorite devices go from dead (0%) to alive and kicking (100% charged) in as little as 29 minutes!

Why Zippy Charger?

  • Super-Fast Charging: power up your devices 4X faster than other wall chargers on the market.

  • Universal Compatibility: works with your smartphone, tablet, or any other device...and charge 3 at a time.

  •  Portable and Compact: perfect for home, office, or travel. Never be caught with a dead battery again!

Right now it's available at a 60% discount! Not sure how long that'll last. I just know it's a good deal. 

Stay charged, keep smiling!

📰 Good News of the Day

Meet Virginia Ginger Hislop, the incredible 105-year-old woman who just earned her master’s degree from Stanford.

Yes, you read that right!

She’s waited a long time for this moment.

And she's proved that it’s never too late to chase your dreams and achieve your goals.

Her story is a beautiful testament to perseverance and the joy of lifelong learning.

Let’s be inspired to never give up on our passions, no matter our age.

📚 What We're Reading

This week, Shay shares her thoughts on "The Lost Bookshop by Evie Woods"

I honestly don’t have anything bad to say. And that says a lot because I’ve read a lot!

Slow burn isn’t the word to describe it however Woods took her time & I’m so glad she did. With every letter and word, I was able to piece it all together and really feel what I was reading. Not many authors that can do that nowadays.

Magnificent. Can’t wait to see more come from her! Great read & one of my favorite birthday gifts to myself.

Thank you, Shay! Check it out yourself » The Lost Bookshop
