Noviembre- A Month for Gratitude and Hope. Conexion November 2022

 Written for the November edition of Conexion, 

BB shares her love of fall, the beauty and strength of the season.

HolaHolaHola Beautifuls!

Noviembre, it’s officially Fall. Wow and Woah. No se about y’all, pero once the year got its momentum going, there was no stopping it. How about you Beautifuls? Did you get your momentum going? Did you hit your stride, or just went along on the ride?  Creo que we all did a little of both, verdad? We were “in the flow” and at times just “going slow”, pero al final, we’re here, getting ready for another rapidly approaching New Year.

In another month the locura of Crisma, then before you know it we’re singing Auld Lang Syne. Let’s take a moment to reflect, remember and rejoice this year. Give thanks for all that has happened, for it has brought moments of happiness or hardiness, either way, we’re still here. Surely that means we have a reason to be, and for that, feel grateful and blessed.

“Love the trees until their leaves fall off, then encourage them to try again next year.”

~Chad Sugg

We are the trees, some samplings, some giant oaks, but we all lose leaves in life. And like nature, we dig down into the ground, roots going deeper. At times we go dormant to strengthen, to rest, to recollect our energies- and our dreams. Si, otro año se termina, this year is almost finished, but that doesn’t mean we are.  Find encouragement in being. Be proud of what you’ve lived and learned this year, for with that, you have the chance to bloom again.

May your Dia de Gracias Be Everyday Beautifuls.

Babushka Besos a Todos. Cuidensen.

Hola Otoño Hello October in @ConexionFlorida

This is the article Babushka wrote for the October edition in  Conexion, the bilingual newspaper in N.Florida , Alabama and Georgia. Hope you follow the above link to the online edition to see all the eventos and wonderful info shared monthly.

HolaHolaHola Beautifuls!

Last month Babushka took a breakesito to celebrate her 57th  cumples. Now, when BB says break, she means from writing here, porque Septiembre definitely was not calm in any sense of the word, except for the acceptance of another year of life. With luck it is inevitable ,with acknowledgement, full of grace. Getting older definitivamente has its’ challenges, pero it has its’ momentous momentos too. “Less being more” becomes a manifesting life lesson, sabiduria en lo sencillo, siempre and in todo.  

Looking for a good description of this, a Twofer was found.

An excerpt from a post, “The Autumn of Our Own Existence”  by Omid Safi -

“As I enter this autumn season — and the autumn of my own existence — I am growing slowly more
comfortable with the becoming less and less, so that more and more can be revealed.

Bring on this Autumn of the soul.

Welcome these colors shining through.”

The colores of fall, the changing from bright greens to rich yellows and gold, perfecto metaphor for growing older, the Autumn of our Lives. It can be a time of reflection, of beauty. Como todo en la vida, with gratitude the belleza of the present season makes the colors richer and their presence more precious. 

Look for the beauty in each season Beautifuls, they are there and they are bountiful and plenty. Mull over your daily moments, hay bastante blessings in each day if your take the time to look. For her parte, Babushka loves the symbolism, cider and sabiduria of this season and is grateful for its’ beauty and tastes. Drink up, indulge, ingest it all! 

The taste of Fall, enjoying it with all her senses.

Babushka Besos a todos.

Cuidensen.

Day 6 of #SMCSFBlog Challenge

Oldie but a Goody- Day 5 of 30 day blog challenge

No, I'm not talking about BB.  Bueno, Ok, Si, I am but indirectly.  The title of today's post is just to let you know that this is in reality a repost of a post I did last year.  Queee?  JU SO FONII!!!  Of course Babushka hasn't run out of things to write/talk about.  Soy Cubana remember?  I ALWAYS have something to say.  No, this is a breather.  I really partied hearty my Bday month and I will be returning  Up North in The South today, so I figured I'd give us all a breakesito and a good laugh.*  Yes, I did check with the SMCSF and this will count, JUST THIS ONCE, because I'm adding to the prior post, and because they love their Babushka.


Fall Part 2  (originally posted on 12/7/11)

OK, so I continue my discurso on Fall. In case you didn't gather from the last post, this is my favorite time of year. The temperature starts dropping (of course that's up here in North Florida, in Miami? JU SO FONII !!! ), there's pumpkin pie and caramel apples in the grocery stores, the fashions are fabulous, and the holiday lights are beginning to twinkle in the darker crisp nights. Si, yo se, I didn't state the obvious, the reason Fall is called Fall. The leaves, they are a changin' colors and faaalllliiinnnggg, but that's not the only thing that's falling.

Let us go back to fashions shall we? Even though BB adooores fall fashions, I do concede there are possible drawbacks. Last week, BB went to apoyar-support- a performance given by fellow actors of the TWAM- Theater With A Mission troupe, and of course had to look every bit the distinguished diva that she is. The nightime temperatures were going to drop into the low 40's so out came the box of winter clothing and I picked my ensemble. My divine divaness decided on the flowered black fan, my BB headscarf, my black cape, a lime green turtleneck, a black background flowered see through long sleeved shirt, black dress slacks, black tights and black high heeled boots. I should have left the last two items in the box. Apparently the tights and the boots, as well as BB, had aged in the last year and the proof of that would be apparent before the end of the evening.

Now, I did notice the tights were not quite as snug as they should be- at least not in the right places. Oh they were tight enough up to the upper thighs and then it seemed the elastic powers of the poor dears could take no more. They just hung there, mid thigh. Running behind schedule (Cubana remember?) I rationalized that my pants would keep them up, so off my daughter and I went. Arriving at the location, I jump out of the car only to have my smarty 19 year old ask why I'm walking funny. She's sooooo lucky I had my hands in my pockets trying to hold up the tights and couldn't give her a good ::BOPASO::  with my fan...

I quickly found the nearest ladies' room and did what any self respecting nifty, almost 50, diva abuela would do. I undressed, put my granny panties on top of the now midthigh "tights" and put my slacks and boots back on before they became knee highs. If you're female I know you've felt my pain.

Bueno, para no cansarte, we watched the brilliant performance of our actors and in the glow of their well deserved applause they asked the rest of the troupe to join them on stage. A little background info here- my daughter asked why I was going if I wasn't going to be acting. I informed her that BB didn't always have to be the center of attention- to which she laughed/choked. "Mom, you can't help yourself- it's who you are, what you do." And y'all wonder why puberty ::shudder:: has left me shell shocked.

Continuing. I go towards the other actors and finding no steps attempt to climb onto the stage.  Notice I wrote attempt. Between the high heels, the midthighs-almost-knee-highs tights and my age, you can forget about it. My right foot was on the stage, with me trying to get momentum by pushing off the ground repeatedly with the left foot while sputtering "Ahem,hem,hem" to cover any creaks or cries from my joints and bones.

It was not a diva moment.

In all fairness, my 19 year old showed self control. She did not say anything until the ride home. Then the hysterical laughter shook the car windows.

"See? You can't help yourself- it's who you are, what you do."

Babushka Besos a todos. Cuidensen.

*10/2012  BB can laugh about this now.  Hope you did too.

Fall, Football, and Fabulous Fashions!

North Florida, a place of actual season changes. Coming from Miami, believe me when I say this is no small miracle in my eyes; I'm LOVING IT!! Up here,Fall, is one of the favorite seasons, and being a college town you know football is a favorite too. De veras, in reality, if I may be totally truthful- and BB knows no other way to be- I really don't care which Florida team wins as long as it's a Florida team. Si, Si, I hear the gasps. No preference in Florida teams, but definitivamente a preference in seasonal fashions. Little Summer nadas para mi? JU SO FONI !!! BB abhors them! Fabulous Fall Fashions? BB adooores them!!! What's not to adore? Not quite the nakedness of Summer, but not the Eskimo attire of Winter. Fall fashions- very BB. Classy, covering y Coqueta!! And nobody fabricates Fall Fashions around here like Ms. Evelyn.

Ms. Evelyn and I go way back. When I worked for the state of Florida Ms. Evelyn was my coworker- one of the best dressed coworkers if I may add. So much talent couldn't go unnoticed and we began asking for custom orders and she's continued designing and creating them. Her gift for garb isn't confined to females; she creates for children and naturally a North Florida wardrobe wouldn't be complete without hometeam garments!

All very nice, but for the real Style and Flair-

Bohemian
