Pet Blessing

-

This is Frida Calico, aka The Floof.  She tolerates snuggles, brings joy to Zoom meetings, and is a great interrupter of puzzles.  (She likes to sit in the puzzle box or on the scattered pieces.)  I am grateful for her companionship.  My pets have added connection and coziness to my life.  I'm thinking others can relate.

The Care Neighborhood will provide loving thoughts for the creatures that impact us.  This is a Pet Blessing Event for all our animal friends...Great or Small...Scaly or Smooth...Fur or Feathers....

If anyone would like to participate in the joy, please send your pet pics and stories to @TheCareNeighborhood on Instagram #petblessing or email TheCareNeighborhood@gmail.com.

I'll be LIVE on Instagram Wednesday, April 22 --Earth Day -- at 9am and 10pm CDT for the Pet Blessing event! 😻💗💗

Spring in Review

  Beginning the Season with a refresh of the mantle.  Working on our aesthetics and space is part of our usual Spring Cleaning.  Plus this year, I had the added motivation from The Possibility Department GYST with the Pentacle Program.   Back to Florida to visit with family. There may have been some touristy shenanigans too! May Day with a celebration of all the diverse gifts folks bring to our communities at Tree of Life Unitarian Universalist Congregation .     Movies and Legos for Mother's Day fun.  I'm celebrating the way the kiddo encourages us to be playful! Such a gorgeous time to notice the lushness of nature. Joanna DeVoe is journeying through the Tarot.  Here's my take on the coloring page.  And this rainbow greeting me on a road trip gives me the same Magician vibes.  Check out Jo's Patreon for more info. After Spring had sprung, we welcome Summer.  May this be a season of warmth and joy! (For our friends in the Southern Hemisphere too, though it comes in

Hello Neighbors! And Happy September! This past season likely had a mix of emotions, highs and lows (feelings and climate); still, we hope that overall you are well.  It's been a full summer for the Gonzalez-Rowley family at The Care Neighborhood.  We celebrated Pride with a local community.  Enjoyed family birthdays...We have so many June Bdays between us!...We got to travel a bit - a trip out east, seeing family and friends by the lake, a road trip to a nearby destination.

Autumn Reflections Happy Fall, Y'all!  -from our family to yours At The Care Neighborhood we had a few practices over the season. Cozy AF (alcohol-free) Nights Honoring Ancestors on November Eve / Halloween Social Hours Self-care Micro-practices Thanksgiving As we transition to the next season, I want to pause and reflect and recap a few things from the autumn/fall. Cozy AF (alcohol-free) Nights:  Statistics show that alcohol consumption has increased over the past few years, especially during the Pandemic. I found myself drinking more than I wanted and drinking every day in 2020.  I reached out to a counselor, and she gave me the advice to try a sober night once or twice a week.  It could help to break the pattern, help me practice other methods of relaxation, and cut back my alcohol consumption overall.  I was glad to share my own practice in The Care Neighborhood, invite community care into this self-care practice.   Here are some ideas for an alcohol-free night on any day of th
