I filtered the collected rainwater
before I went to bed, and did some tapping. I had no trouble
sleeping. I woke up before 7 and went back to bed to get my mind
into a state of gratitude. Like yesterday I was surprised that it
was almost 8 when I got up to start the day. I thought seriously
about having a computer-free day. Ha, ha. I watered the garden beds
with mineral water. I put the Netflix movie in the mail. I deleted
a bunch of e-mail, then put on an audio while I went through the
routine. I had to have another one while juicing and meditating.
Chris skyped me at 11:15. We had a much calmer conversation today.
Then I made and ate breakfast. I watched part of a Dvd downstairs,
and realized it was raining. I came up to take my supplements. I
called Sharon to ask when Bob would come with a new light. I
suggested that a ceiling fan would be nice. Bob had said he would
mention it to her, but apparently he hadn't. She said she would text
him right away in case he was at Home Depot and tell him to get a
fan. I brought in the mail, but it was all junk. I read e-mail, did
some tapping, ate something, then went down to cut border strips for
the flag quilt. The phone rang and it was Bob calling to say he
would have been here but one of the other tenants drove through her
garage door so he has to fix that today and will be here Monday to
install a light with fan. If I want faster service apparently I have
to drive through the garage door. Funny, right? But I sat and just
burst into tears. Sad because being nice has gotten me nowhere. My
needs are so far down the list they don't matter. Perfect. It
helped to hear from our NC agent that the tenants have finally paid
up. I boiled the last of the duck eggs. There was a chopstick on
the stove and it lit, but I got it before it flamed. But, ahh, I
just love the aroma of wood smoke. I planted the sweet potato from
the planter box into one of the flower beds. One of the slips from
the indoor potato took it's place in the planter box. I put cages
around the tomatoes which have grown exponentially in the last week
and are falling over. I picked and ate two pea pods. When I came
in, I brought in rain water, andI washed my hands and checked e-mail.
I had e-mailed Jennifer about an Esther Hicks video and invited her
over to watch it. Her reply sounded hopeful, so I called her. The
moment she said she would come over, I saw my house differently. All
of a sudden all the things that were out of place called themselves
to my attention and I started cleaning up. I made myself a veggie
smoothie and cleaned that up. I processed the latest rain water. I was starting the video to see how it
sounded in the livingroom, when she rang the doorbell. Jennifer
commented on how large the yard was, and so we discussed the
property. She wanted to see the basement, so I showed her my sewing
room. She exclaimed over all the fabric. I showed her all my
quilts, too. We talked about stuff in our lives, and then the phone
rang.
I am glad Jennifer was there when I got the news from Kurt.
After she left, I called William to get more details. Faye said a
few words too. I e-mailed Chris to let him know. I did not know how
to tell Michele. I did not know what I should be doing. Being alone
did not bother me because I have so much to deal with before I can
face anyone. My brother and I skyped for quite some time. I know my
mother is in a better place now. That is all I know.
