Last day of September

I woke up very early, scraped my tongue and went back to bed. I woke up later and turned over again. When I finally got up, it was after 8. I sewed some blocks together, then brushed. I swished while I took a shower. Then I got dressed and deleted a round of e-mail. Then I went to church.
I was a little early for choir so I talked to Jennifer who was excited about going north for Canadian Thanksgiving. She canceled choir for next Sunday. We sang through today's song several times, then disbanded. Cecelia sat with me and Don. The organist played something beautiful, but the timing wasn't steady. The pastor gave the announcements.
After the service, there was a luncheon in the fellowship hall. But I didn't stay. I went home and changed my clothes. Then Chris and I went to Kroger for groceries. It was cheaper, but we did not find everything we are used to getting.
When we got home, we put the food away. Chris boiled eggs and put pork in the oven. I made and ate breakfast. I read e-mail. I looked at articles on teeth and chewing. I opened a young coconut, drank the water and scraped the jelly from the inside of the shell. I rolled up some newspaper to make a rod. I used it to hang the pumpkin wallhanging on the front door. I did some more sewing. I scrubbed the green chair with soapy water and left it to soak. I boiled 6 beets. While they were on the stove, I mowed the lawn. When I came in, I plugged in the battery to recharge. The pork was out of the oven. Chris put some on his plate so I got a plate, too. It was quite good.
I read more articles about healing. After eating the pork, I made lots of salad. I topped the second bowl of it with raw garlic. The beets were cool, so I cut them up and put them in an old kimchi jar. I poured vinegar and water over them, then added chopped garlic and salt. I put all the food in the fridge, except for the beet leaves. I left them in a bowl of water to rehydrate. Then I got out the Bissell and sucked all the water from the chair, hoping the stain would be gone when it was fully dry. I had been meaning to clean the spot for years. Waiting for Chris to finish a movie, I played Solitaire and ate blueberries. Somehow I lost the last berry. I thought it fell in my lap, but I looked there and everywhere. It just disappeared.
When Chris was done watching the movie on his laptop, we moved to the living room to watch two episodes of DS9. Chris made his lunch for tomorrow while I brushed and swished. I wrote up my blog post for today. Then I applied the ozone cream in several places and got ready for bed.
* Some cute towels for sale at the fabric store. *

A quilter will find fabric, somewhere

Last night before going to bed, I sat in the dark living room and tapped. I am not sure how long. But I think I fell asleep faster than usual when I finally laid down.
I got up at 8. I was grateful to see actual sunshine outside. I brushed and swished. I sewed pairs of blocks together. Chris was already up and had the router on. I checked e-mail and listened to a podcast from the EMF summit replay:

Cece Doucette is trying to get change in schools to protect kids. Schools are in a catch-22, being told by the state to implement technology, and being told by parents that kids are being exposed to unsafe levels of radiation. 2-way radiation is biologically hazardous. One school changed to low-emf routers: JRS Eco-wi-fi. Some other routers have eco mode. Generation Zapped is a good documentary movie on this subject.

It was after 11. I called Beverly and she said she would meet me soon. I filled an empty bottle with salt water to take with me. I drove to the church on Jordan Lane. I parked and got in her car and we went to Decatur.
We thought we were going to a quilt shop having a sale. But when we got there, we saw that it was more of an upholstery fabric place with a side order of embroidery stuff. Only the upholstery fabric was on sale.
We did not buy anything there, but we took pics in front of the store because they had giant lions. Then we went to the local Hobby Lobby. HL had a nice selection of fabric and it was all 30% off. We each got some, but I got more. Then, looking for Wal-Mart, we saw a large thrift shop. We walked around inside, looking at this and that. I got a black-out curtain panel.
Then we walked to Wal-Mart on the other end of the shopping center. They had fabric, too, but nothing we couldn't live without. We looked for pickled garlic and did not find any. I did find a battery for a lantern-type flashlight and a bunch of bananas. We checked out and walked back to her car. We ate some of the bananas and then drove back to Huntsville.
When I got home, I checked the mail and found three books for the guild library. Sadly, an invoice was not included. Chris gave me a massage, then threw the sheets in the wash.. I put in my handbag as well so it would be clean for Tuesday.
I mended a quilt block that got cut short, and sewed some pairs together. We boiled water to blanch garlic to pickle it. I checked e-mail. I made a large salad and cut up some raw garlic for the second bowl. I looked up things to put in our Netflix queue. I watched videos on teeth and jaw exercises.
We watched two episodes of DS9. Then we dressed the bed with clean sheets. I drank some tea and wrote up my blog. I swished and used the ozone cream. Then it was time for bed.
* Why a fabric store has two giant lions I will never know. *

The massage that almost wasn't

I stayed up late last night reading a book. I was hoping that would help me fall asleep, but I still laid awake in bed for some time. Surprisingly, I woke up at 7, before the alarm went off. I decided get up anyway. I brushed and swished and sewed a bunch of pairs of blocks together. Then I turned on the router and checked e-mail. I looked at videos and articles on regenerating teeth:
Tideglusib is an Alzheimers drug also used for regenerating tooth structure in cavities. LIPUS is the use of ultrasound. Also low-current electricity between 1 and 2 mhz has been used. Nacre from mollusk shells, and stem cells are two more ways.
I made and ate breakfast. I opened my Viome kit and read the instructions. I registered it online. I washed up and got dressed. I drove to the supplement shop where my massage lady rents a room. She wasn't there yet, but the owner was out front telling people that the shop was closed because an 18-wheeler had just ripped out the electrical connections in the street in back of the shop.
I was preparing to be disappointed, when Gabriele arrived. She asked if she could give massages anyway since she did not need electricity to do it. The police and the owner agreed. So, we went into a darkened room with a table. There was no one in the shop so we left the door ajar. I slipped under the sheets. She rubbed me good, getting into the muscles and tissues. Of course we talked the whole time. She remarked how quiet the place was with no electricity humming through it.
Afterward, I paid her and left when her next client came in. I went to the Asian shop down the street. I went inside and looked around. But all I got was two green coconuts. I asked about pickled garlic and they had some, but it contained sugar. Then I went home.
When I got there, I checked the house mail and it was empty. I checked for pickled garlic on Amazon. But it was really expensive. I found the Viome questionnaire and answered the questions as best I could. Some I just didn't know, but 'IDK' was not one of the choices.
I made a big salad and ate it with raw garlic. Kurt called to discuss an article in Consumer Reports. It talked about various alternative therapies, and treatments. I went for a 45 minute walk around the neighborhood. I found another bush with red berries, but they were not edible as far as I could tell. When I got home, Chris' car was in the driveway. It was after 6, so he did not have a chance to get to the post office.
I ate a bowl of onion soup and listened to an episode of the Depression and Anxiety Secrets summit. I didn't take many notes because I was also playing Solitaire. It talked about what supplements to take for each neurotransmitter deficiency.
I made a mug of hot teas for later. I ironed pieces of interfacings while waiting for Chris.
We watched two episodes of DS9. I drank my combination of teas, and then brushed and swished. I typed up my blog post for the day. Then I applied ozone cream. I stayed up to tap for a bit before going to bed.
* I haven't taken any pics recently, so here is a quilt pic that I downloaded for my inspiration file. *

Just the thought of garlic...

I got up about 8. It was another gray, rainy day. I brushed and swished and sewed two 4-patches. I turned on the router and checked e-mail. Pat texted me, asking me to send pics of forms to someone named Sue. So, I took pics of the forms on the laptop screen and sent those, along with the original files in case the pics were not acceptable.
I made and ate breakfast. I watched a video on how to make a slideshow on Youtube. But when I tried it, Youtube did not give me the same options. So I looked at one on using OpenOffice. I got a spot on my chair. I scrubbed it with soap but it did not come out. I tried to get the Bissell out, but it was up too high in the garage and too heavy to move.
I saw the Netflix envelope on the coffee table. I closed it and put it in the mail. I looked for some fabric with a large print. I found a stack of panel prints, and selected one or two. I got dressed and went to quilting, taking my stack of partly trimmed blocks.
When I got to quilting, only a few ladies were there because the rest were at a quilt retreat. Pat handed me some more books that need pockets and labels. And she wants me to order another book for the library. I chatted with the others while I trimmed my blocks. But I finished early and did not feel like setting up my machine. Melissa and Pat and I put everything away, and headed out to our cars.
I went home in the spitting rain. I checked the mail, and brought in my sewing gear. I ordered books, book pockets and book cards from Amazon. I peeled a bunch of garlic. I sliced some in a bowl. I mixed it with hummus and bitter melon. I tried to eat it but got sick on it. The raw garlic was just too strong. I needed more in my stomach, so I ate some of each of the cheeses that I bought at the farmer's market, and just about anything else I could get my hands on.
Then the door bell rang. It was a maintenance man here to fix the toilet. I continued eating. When he was done, I mentioned the mildew growing on the ceiling in the bathroom. He said he would address it tomorrow.
I researched comfrey root and cayenne for healing teeth. I wondered if comfrey was growing around here. I looked at pics of it, but they weren't all the same.
Chris came home from work. After he changed clothes, I asked him to get the Bissell steam cleaner. No actual steam was involved. The spot on the chair had lightened. I put more water on it and the steamer vacuumed it out. I repeated until the soap was gone and the chair seat as dry as it was going to get. Chris ate the rest of the cut garlic for me. I ate an apple and onion soup. I listened to a podcast that was supposed to talk about getting to sleep. All I heard on that topic was to sit in a hot tub 20 minutes before going to bed. Ha.
I rinsed and swished with black walnut extract. I looked up products with Nova-Min. Most were unavailable and the ones that were, had other ingredients that I didn't want.
At 7 my tapping buddy called. I was carrying my laptop to the guest room for our chat. The cord was knocking things off the table and getting caught on doorknobs. We had a good session and she said she felt much better.
Afterward, Chris and I watched two episodes of DS9. I wore Chris out. He went to bed without making lunch. I stayed up to swish and blog and put ozone cream on my gums and in my hair.
* Here's another item from the Modern Quilt Guild. *

A very rainy day

I woke up at 9am. I thought it was early because very little light was coming through the window. Sadly, it was just raining – a gray and dismal day. I got up to brush and swish. I sewed two pairs into a 4-patch. I turned on the router. I checked e-mail and drank water. I took some niacin and did my exercises when the flush hit. I made coffee. I put on some chakra music. I tapped and meditated.
I squared up some blocks from all the ones I pressed the other day. I was perplexed at how one side was routinely smaller than the 8.5 goal size. Usually my blocks are slightly larger than necessary because of my scant quarter inch. So it just didn't make sense. I can believe that the strips may have been cut badly (since they were donated), but always on the same side? Maybe I have a bad ruler? But no, I turned it 180 degrees and the blocks were still off.
I checked e-mail. My tapping buddy suggested that the berries I picked might be bush honeysuckle. So I looked it up. The leaves look the same, but those berries had stems and mine didn't. But it could be just a different cultivar. Probably not edible. Definitely not tasty.
I cleaned the bathrooms and kitchen. I scrubbed the countertops with oil soap and let it sit, hoping to get the turmeric stains off. But it didn't work. I threw out the seeds that didn't sprout. They were smelling moldy, and only one had sprouted. I checked the house mail and brought in my offerings folder. I searched the Swanson's site for stuff to order since they were having a sale.
Chris came home from work. I told him I couldn't find a certain meme and wanted to make my own. He suggested using OpenOffice, and finding a pic through Google images.
To my surprise, I found a meme generator. I was able to easily make some Ryan Gosling memes for my Pinterest pages. Then I looked at Scanar devices online. They are a non-invasive electrical approach to healing, but really expensive for personal use.
I took a shower and got dressed. I puttered around a bit, then left for choir practice. It wasn't raining any more. I got there early. I put the bank bag back in the safe. Then I used the restroom and found the toilet running, again. Then I went to the sanctuary to turn in the old music and pick up a new piece. I talked to Jennifer until Cecelia arrived. She said she was going to start practicing her flute again and encouraged me to play my trombone.
Soon practice began. We did our warm-up and practiced our songs in reverse order. When we got to the piece for this Sunday, we went up front where we will be singing. We sang through it several times and were dismissed. Cecelia told me she would be gone for two weeks in October. Then I went home.
When I got there, Chris was at his laptop. I checked my phone and found a text from my massage lady. I set up an appt for Friday. Chris opened the Netflix envelope to find that it was Lucifer season 3, but we have already seen that. So he put it back in the sleeve and we watched two episodes of DS9 instead. Then Chris made his lunch and went to bed. I stayed up to swish, blog, and drink kava tea.
* This is the design my giant G will be part of. *

Hanging by half

I got up at 7:15. I brushed and swished and sewed some patches together. I turned on the router and let it warm up while I picked up paper on the back porch. I woke up my laptop and started reading e-mail. But the cursor froze. Chris had clued me in that closing the lid would unlock it. And that worked yesterday. But today when I tried to close the lid, the hinge broke. AAARGH! I rebooted it.
I played the last interview from the EMF summit while I ironed quilt squares from yesterday. When that was done, I sat down to listen to the rest:
EMF's affect fish and birds sense of direction. Fish are more likely to end up on the beach. Don't have smart devices in your bedroom. White noise generators, metals are conductive like the coils in the mattress.

I drank my quart of water. Then I trimmed some of the blocks. I ate a fat bomb and read e-mail. Then I got dressed and went to quilting.
I picked up a range of stabilizers on the give-away table. I gave some black and white fabrics to Beverly W. She agreed to let me use her log cabin blocks for my demo next week. I worked on the binding for Jane's qult. Thelma was giving out tomatoes and I took 2.
After they all left, Beverly C and I went to the Asian store for kimbap. I ate some of mine in the car and one of the tomatoes. We went to the sportsplex to walk a mile. The other tomato got a little cooked in the hot car. Then I went home.
I ate the rest of the kimbap with kimchi. I read e-mail. I made and ate breakfast. I put my phone in my purse so I could use the calculator function later. Dr. Grace called to say the clinic would be closed for the rest of the week so I don't need to show up tomorrow.
I drove to the church. The pastor was there. We stayed out of each other's way until I was almost finished. As he was leaving, I asked how he felt. I was worried that his desk was right behind the wall of the router. We talked about EMF's and he said his wife was sensitive also. After he left, I finished up and printed the reports. I took the money to the bank and deposited it. The lady at the front desk offered to come to the church and do financial talks.
From there, I went to the farmer's market. I got frozen meats. I bought some cilantro sprouts. looked at all the other things available. I ran into the pastor's wife and we had a nice chat. Then I bought some cheeses from the goat farm guy. I wanted to look at apples, too, but decided I needed to get the meat home to the freezer.
On the way home It started to rain. I had to dash inside with the bags of meat, cheese, and sprouts. I showed Chris how the lid of my laptop broke off on one side. I wanted to know how to fix it and he thought I should live with it. I ate some frozen watermelon and read e-mail.
Around 8, Chris cued up DS9 and we watched two episodes. Then he made his sandwich and went to bed. Sadly I spent too much time on Pinterest trying to find a pic of Ryan Gosling in a bloody shirt saying “Hey Girl, that guy over there didn't know the difference between a quilt and a blanket. He does now.” Unfortunately, I did not find it and I don't know how to create it. I swished and used ozone cream and went to bed.
* This is a quilt shown at the guild meeting. *

Novel treatments

I got up about 8:25, after having woken up at 7:30 and turning over for another 5 minutes. Ha! I brushed and swished and sewed some patches together. I loaded the bread machine and cleaned up any spilled flour in case just touching it could spark an autoimmune response.
I turned on the router and checked e-mail. Then I listened to two and a half interviews:

The destructive frequencies don't escape. They bounce around in the ionosphere. The dimmer switch on the light gives off more radiation than the cell phone. We are living in an electric universe. Life is an electrical phenomenon. Nutrition is electrical. Electraceuticals are the future of medicine. Microcurrent therapy. Shine light through a gem stone and it adds healing frequencies to water or the body. It is called Ayurveda gem science. A Mora machine and a Bicon machine are good examples of radionics. Russians invented a handheld SCENAR device capable of curing most illnesses for their space program. Some call it Star Trek medicine. Laser light connected to homeopathic remedy. “The Healing Power of Disease” – listen to the message of the things that go wrong. Psychic shock is the initiation of virtually all disease. To live long and be healthy, stay away from doctors and hospitals. They think they know about disease, but they don't know about health. Alternative-doctor.com. Medicinebeyond.com.

EMF fields keep you in sympathetic activation. You got to trigger the parasympathetic state to compensate. It adds a stress to the body on top of all the other stresses we have in our lives. Stroking the upper arms, face or hands helps (see Havening.org. )

Toxins affect the calcium channels. The channels are voltage-gaited so electricity affects them, too. Dysfunction in the calcium channels contributes to autism. . Noble electronics makes several filters for dirty electricity: Px-dna; Rx-dnab2x. Mold can affect the calcium channels as well. Your health depends on the health of your environment, like a fish in a bowl of water. He recommended supplements from Bodybio.

If we changed from AC to DC then the fields would be reduced. Engineers have been sold the idea that the AC fields are not harmful so they are ignoring the solutions. And those solutions would lead to better medical treatments. Pulsed electromagnetic fields can help regenerate bone. The purpose of IOT is to generate and collect information. Then that info can be stolen. Fiber optic cable is a safer options.

I took the dishes out of the dishwasher and put them away. I made and ate breakfast. I sliced up some raw garlic, but even with hummus on it, was too strong to eat. Then I got dressed and threw some projects into my sewing cart and headed out.
When I arrived at quilting, there were lots of ladies there and they were sewing. I guess I missed lunch entirely. No one was at the ironing board, so I ironed the backing I had made and pressed the center seam open. Then I worked on a charity project. When I got to a good stopping point, I packed up. Everyone had left but Lauri so I had plenty of room to spread out. I opened the backing and folded it carefully lengthwise. Then I straightened edges and trimmed them. It took several tables to do it. I folded the backing and put it in my cart. Lauri packed up too, and we left.
When I got home, I checked the mail. There was a perfumed box for 'resident'. Uggh. I resumed the interview, but it got stuck. So I called Dad to see if he had any damage from the storms, and to suggest that he turn his router off. But he was worried that it might not turn back on, and he said if it posed a danger then it would be on the news.
Chris came home while I was talking to Dad. He made his supper. After the call, I finished the interview. Then I went walking and picked berries from a tree that I have not identified yet. It looked like rain, but I made it home still dry. I fixed a lot of salad, with garlic and hummus. The garlic did not bother me in the salad.
While eating, I queued up the next interview. I was reading e-mail at the same time and Chris went off on something the man said. I had missed it myself. But the pleasant atmosphere in our house was over. It was hard to keep eating. I plugged in the headphones and heard more of the interview.
At 7 we sat in the living room to watch a new episode of Big Bang Theory. When that was over, Young Sheldon came on. Chris was not enamored of it and I could take or leave it, so we proceeded to DS9 and watched two episodes. Then we folded laundry and put it away. I swished and made tea. I listened to the rest of the interview with headphones. Chris went to bed. I stayed up to blog. Transforming some of the notes into full sentences was time-consuming.
* This is a pic from the Modern Quilt Guild *

I am an ecosystem

We heard my alarm ring at 7:30 but I did not feel like getting up. Chris did, though. He was on his laptop when I arose. I brushed and swished and sewed several pairs of patches. I took a shower. I rinsed the juniper berries and put them in the fire cider. I poured the sumac tea through a filter into a pitcher and had a taste. It was good. Nice color, too.
I listened to an interview on EMF:
frequencies in the AM band are very long and don't affect us much. But as the wavelengths get shorter, they have more of an effect. Micro-waves will have the most effect. Fields can interfere with each other. Some fields have frequencies that interfere with certain medications. 90% of people who wore the hat of shielding fabric felt significantly better. EMF's affect the microbiome, which isn't just in the gut, it is all over the body. It affects sleep, cognition, behavior, Sleep in a Faraday cage for protection and good sleep. We are more vacuum space than solid substance.
I got dressed and went to church. Jennifer was walking to her car as I drove up. I gave her a small baggie of juniper berries. She gave me an elderberry lozenge and invited me to read the ingredients on the bottle. I got out my glasses and read. I was not impressed, but did not spit it out. I had to catch up on Doris' life. Soon we gathered to go through the choir piece a few times. It went ok. I asked Elaine about the NAEC treatments. We walked to the foyer to get bulletins while she answered. Her doctor is using acupuncture to get rid of allergies to calcium, eggs, wheat, etc. Then I got to talking with Margie, the pastor's wife. We ended up walking into the sanctuary during announcements. I sat in my usual pew, and Don came in soon after.
It was a good service. The pastor talked about how there aren't any self-help groups for pride, but there are for the rest of the seven deadly sins. After the service, I joined the congregation in the fellowship hall to welcome a new member. It turned out that she just retired from the FBI's DNA division. So we had quite the conversation. Oh, and she quilts, too.
Afterward, I went home to change my clothes. Then Chris and I went to Publix for groceries. I asked the produce guy for pickled garlic. He said they didn't have it, but could order it. So I wrote down my name and phone number.
When we got back, Chris cut up onions to make soup and put the leftover lamb in it. I think he cooked some other things for his use later in the week. When I thought he was done in the kitchen, I made and ate breakfast. I drank the rest of the sumac tea. I tried to eat 10 cloves of raw garlic since I was out of pickled garlic, but just couldn't do it. So I made hummus using a different attachment on the mixer. It was much easier. Then I ate the garlic cloves with the hummus. Afterward, I washed all the dishes I used.
I listened to another interview:
We're not human, we are an ecosystem of human, virus, bacteria, parasites, etc. So cell-to-cell communication is very important. The microbiome of stool can tell what diseases you have or are developing. You are taken care of at the cellular level by billions and trillions of cells that are non-human. Glyphosate destroys the extracellular matrix, thereby interrupting the cell-to-cell communication. Cell towers do it, too. Every round of antibiotics reduces your lifespan. For more info: Zachbushmd.com, Restore4life.com

The onion stew with lamb was finished cooking. It was ok. I ate one bowl. I peeled the entire package of turmeric that we bought. I chopped it up. Some went in the fire cider and the rest got boiled at length. I wandered into the living/sewing area and contemplated what I could do for the cropping challenge of the Modern Quilt Guild. Soon, Chris cued up Netflix and we watched two episodes. I rubbed my head with onion while we watched. Later, I swished with tooth powder and xylitol. I wrote my blog post for the day and put on a sleep patch.

Black walnut tincture (or hair dye)

I got up about 8, I guess. I brushed and swished and sewed two patches together. Chris had the router on already. I checked e-mail and listened to an interview:

Have wheatgrass growing around you. It has protective benefits from radiation. Yellowdock root is good for detoxing and helps cells deflect radiation. Grind it, put it in a mesh bag, run hot water through it, and use as a luffah. Also can use milk thistle, or picrorhiza. Juicing helps detox. As does skin brushing, and saunas. Sweating is good for getting toxins out.

I finalized several purchases I was considering. One was Viome and I got $100 off. The other was a yard of arganmesh fabric to repel radiation from routers and cell towers.
I wanted to wash my black and white bag, but there was an unexpected raw edge. I sewed several lines of quilting to stabilize it. Then, since I was sitting at the machine, I sewed a number of pairs of patches. I took some apart and then paired up lights and darks.
I took berries off of several sumac plumes. I rinsed them quickly, then put them in a glass pitcher and poured warm water over them. As they sat in the water, it began to turn pink.
When Chris was ready, we went to Kroger to buy pickled garlic. They didn't have it, but I found beets, instead. Then we went across the street to the liquor store to get vodka. Chris got schnapps too.
When we got home, I put on rubber gloves and got a hammer. I used the hammer to crack open the walnut hulls. I pressed the pieces into a jar, and poured vodka over it and put the lid on. I cleaned up with a piece of fabric, hoping for a nice stain pattern. I separated the remaining hulls from their nuts. I threw out the leftover hulls because some had maggots. I left the nuts to dry.
I listened to another interview, this one all about grounding. I read the council report. It sounds like a cell company wants to rent some of the land to site a tower. If that happens, I may have to find another church.
As I listened, I separated the berries I had collected from the tree debris that came with them. But I needed more berries. So I took a clear plastic bag and went for a walk. I found juniper trees. I bagged the end of a limb and shook it to get the ripe berries to fall off. I went to several places on post to collect as many as I could because they are small.
When I got back, I started pouring them in a small dish. A large spider came out of the bag. I jumped back and let Chris handle it. He took the dish outside and coaxed the spider out. However, it was a female wolf spider and her babies were mixed in with the berries.
I listened to more of the interview while separating the new batch of berries. There were a bunch of green ones. I put some in a bag for Jennifer.
I ate some lamb and quinoa. After a bit, I made and ate salad. Chris had cooked me chick peas for hummus, but I was tired so I put the chick peas away.
We watched two episodes of DS9. I brushed my teeth while Chris pulled clean sheets out of the laundry and then we dressed the bed. I swished and rubbed my head with an onion while typing up my blog.
* I didn't wash the walnut hulls, but Chris said the vodka would kill anything left on them. *

A berry good day

I got up about 9, frustrated that it was so late, but glad that it was early than yesterday. I brushed and swished and sewed two patches together. I soaked my seeds, which have not progressed since yesterday. I took my homeopathic pills for strong teeth. While they sat under my tongue, I made changes to my sheet on counting money and printed out a new copy. I also tweaked the spreadsheet paper.
Then I queued up e-mail and listened to the first podcast of the day:

Bill Cadwallader - FCC actually makes money by selling bandwidth. More lobbying dollars from telecommunications and internet companies etc, than from pharmaceuticals. Health bioinitiative study showed 3800 studies showing health effects from cell phones. In the telecommunications act of 1996-1997, it says you can never deny a cell tower based on health or environmental concens. LED and CFL is bad for your eyesight and brain. Don't charge cell phone on your nightstand while you sleep. Live electrical wires emit electric radiation 6 to 8 feet out. Steps to take: buy meters to measure all 4 types of radiation. Measure the places where you sit, stand and sleep. Electric beds and chairs are way above safe limits. Test again after remediation (shielding, or moving, or connecting to toggle switch).

Blue light subtracted from all the other frequencies in the rainbow is devastating to biology. The sun is an emf, but it is the one we are optimized for. Circadian biology trumps food. The older you get, the more sun you need. It affects the way your body uses food. EMF's don't have thermal effects so some people think they are harmless. Exposed to the wrong kind of light can make you sick. We have known since the 60's that use non-native EMF is a problem for biology. That's why Russia doesn't have Facebook, Google, Microsoft, etc. Circadian biology 101: The morning is the most important time to see the sun. EMF's dehydrate you with the exception of the sun and the Schumann resonance. Being on the Yucatan peninsula hits the reset button. Www.jackkruse.com


While I listened, I traced the G on fabric and cut it out. I ironed it down with fusible webbing. I stitched all around it. The doorbell rang and I wasn't dressed. I wrapped the nearest piece of fabric around me and opened the door. There was no one, but a package of cacao nibs was sitting on the sill. I pulled it into the house, still clutching the fabric.
I put on my bathing suit and mowed the back lawn. Then I made and ate breakfast. I saw the sky darken like rain was coming, so I went for a short walk and picked up a bag full of green black walnuts. When I got back, I looked at recipes for making a tincture from the hulls. I saw that you can use them for dye, even for hair.
I called Chris to see if he was able to get to the post office before it closed. He wasn't certain he could. So I went to the post office to get our mail. There was a package for me. Then I stopped by the library on the way back. I put a book on the swap shelf and took another one. I drove home.
I was reading e-mail when Chris came home from work, then changed his clothes. We walked over to the Housing center where they were serving food, handing out chance tickets and had a bouncy house for the kids. We got tickets and Chris got a hotdog. Then we walked the road behind the chapel and Chris helped me pick sumac plumes. Then we went home, passing by the juniper trees and picking some of the berries.
When we got back, I returned to reading e-mail and finding more pics for my healthy teeth vision board. It was almost 6 when Chris went back to the Housing center for the drawing. When he got back, he was on the phone with Michele. She was having computer problems. When I heard her voice, my laptop locked up. Usually I threaten it with Task Manager and that clears it up, but this time it did not work. Chris suggested I close the laptop and open it again. Surprisingly, that worked. We had a nice chat with Michele about her job. I went outside to pick dandelion. Then I made a salad. I played Solitaire and looked for smiles for my vision board while a podcast played. It was about infusing young plasma into older people to combat Alzheimers, and improve biomarkers.
I stopped listening when Chris cued up Netflix. It was almost 10, but we watched two episodes. Chris went to bed, but I stayed up to blog and swish and apply the ozone cream.

More from the EMF summit

I woke up hearing Chris get up and get dressed. I could not go back to sleep. I decided it was either dehydration or insufficient magnesium. So I got up and drank some waterand took some magnesium. I saw that it was only 4:58am so maybe Chris was only out running? But he didn't come back. I laid awake for some time. I laid the special heating pad over me and turned on the PEMF. After a while, I turned it off and went to sleep.
Later I was horrified to find out that it was 9:30 when I woke up. I brushed and swished and sewed a pair of patches. I turned on the router. I looked for some greens to go with the G. I listened to an audio from the EMF summit while I soaked my seeds and drank water:

In the 60's microwave radiation was studied as a possible weapon. 2.4Ghz was determined to cause sterilization over several generations so it was not used publicly. But it is now in the western world. It is the most damaging frequency. Some frequencies are healing, but the govt doesn't support research into those frequencies. Why not use healing frequencies instead, then we can still have our wi-fi. Fiber optics are completely safe so why was it abandoned for cell towers? Marconi, known for his work on long-distance radio transmission, noted the decimation of the bee population, but kept on going. When the body becomes so disrupted, the spirit leaves and the person acts as if they have no soul. Detoxing heavy metals helps. Detox mercury and lead with coriander, chlorella, and others. Taking niacin helps. Detox aluminum with high dose silica, and ionic foot baths. Metals in the mouth are reactive to radiation. Best not to have any, not even gold.
Top 5 tips – 1. turn off router when not using it, or get a wired connection and stop the router transmission. 2. Get the metals out of your mouth, replacing with ceramic or plastic. Replace titanium implants with zirconium oxide 3. switch off all the circuits at night a good fridge can handle 8 hours of no power. 4. get rid of smart meters Takebackyourpower.com has procedures for that. 5. Have your home shielded with special paint and ground it. Special curtains as well. Protective clothing that reflects radiation can be found at Lessemf.com People with Parkinsons, ALS benefit greatly from wearing the clothing. Use Stetzer filters, especially in the bedroom.
Hypersensitivity is an allergy on top of all the symptoms. People who are not hypersensitive get the same rates of depression and insomnia, etc. To stabilize the system, use coriander, propolis, and rosemary. Ki Science has a product called Ray Wave that combines all three. Also use high dose methylated folate for a few months to a few years. Microwaves inactivate our body's way of dealing with retroviruses.

I paused the interview to pack three projects. I watered the plants and went to quilting. The room wasn't quite full. I found a place to set up and spread out. Leanne was back from her trip and showed me some pics. She was working on another Christmas table runner. I worked on paper-piecing the background of the G, getting it backwards several times. I had to learn to sew on the back, not the front. When I got it to where I needed a hand needle (which I didn't have), I switched to the backing project. I folded the fabric in half lengthwise and snipped the fold. Then I ripped it. But when I pinned the selvedges together, the pieces were not the same length – the one on top was short by several inches. ???? I sewed the selvedges together at 1 inch and trimmed it off to 5/8. Then I packed up my machine and went home.
Chris wasn't home yet. I watered the plants again. I found a couple of pieces of mail for him in the mailbox. I wrote some notes for my blog and then finished the interview and caught up on e-mail. I researched fabric that shields EMF radiation. I ate some lamb and a fig and some dates and cashews and two packets of onion juice and one packet of jujube juice and maybe half the bag of dried jujubes.
Chris came home from work late. I went for a walk, taking several bags. I collected some juniper berries from the ground under a tree. Then I was looking for green walnut balls. But there was a game in progress by the tree so I went up the hill instead. There were no walnut trees up there. The poke plants were all eaten up. I did see some surprise lilies in bloom, but they were in a patch of poison ivy so I did not dig them up for transplant to my house.
When I got back, I read more about EMF-shielding fabric, trying to decide how much I needed. It is sold by the linear foot and each kind comes in a different width.
At 6:57 I carried my laptop to the guest room and plugged it in. Soon my tapping buddy was on, and we connected. But it wasn't the best connection and we had to try again. But we did almost two hours of tapping for e-mail overload, When we were done, I made a cup of kava tea and sewed on the blue and white strips for the G.
Because it was so late, Chris and I only watched one episode of DS9. Chris made his sandwich and went to bed. I put on a sleep patch and a vitamin C patch. I rubbed the new ozone cream on my scalp, cut, cyst and skin tag. It's kind of an experiment to see what effects it will have. I swished while writing my blog post. Then I put ozone cream on my gums and got ready for bed.
* Only 2G, for now. *

Insurance troubles

Last night I stayed up reading a novel, thinking I might as well since it takes so long to fall asleep. But I don't think it helped after all, and just made my sleep shorter.
I got up around 8. I brushed and swished and sewed a four-patch. I swished again, this time with sesame oil. I hunted through boxes for fleece and found a piece of brown. It wasn't the right shade, but I cut off a couple of strips and crocheted them to the rug, having just enough to finish the last row. I rinsed my seeds, noting a few sprouts. I made coffee. I put on some meditation music. I did my tapping. I cleaned the bathrooms and kitchen. I mopped the kitchen floor and swept the other floors. Then I took a shower, and left the box fan on to dry out the tub area. I watered the plants in front. I put a few chocolates in a baggie. Then I drove to the Korean clinic.
I gave her the baggie of chocolate that I had made. She seemed very reluctant to have one and inquired about the ingredients. She gave me a hard bread thing, sealed in cellophane. I was very reluctant to eat it. I told her I was fasting and she said I should eat it tomorrow. Then she asked about my itchy scalp and I had to admit that Chris cooked and ate the special onions that she had given me to rub my head with. She said she didn't have any more because a big order had come in and she was all out of onions to make the onion juice.
So then she wanted to know what brands of insurance people have around here and whether they cover acupuncture. I said I didn't know. She wanted me to find out because they would have a lot more customers if their treatments were covered by insurance. I called a Walmart pharmacy to find out the top three insurances used. I tried to find out what Medicaid covered but what I found seemed wrong. He showed me how he used to file claims in California. I called my chiropractor's office to see what software they use to process claims. Then I went to that site and helped him to sign up. It was after 4 and I was eager to go home. They gave me a box of juice packets and a bag of jujubes.
Next, I went to the Asian store for pickled garlic. They still did not have any, so I bought a bag of garlic cloves. When I got home, I checked the mail. There was a box with a small container of ozone cream in it. There was also something to keep it cold, but the whole thing was quite toasty from the hot Alabama sun.
I listened to an audio while crocheting and peeling garlic:
Baby monitors emit a strong frequency, usually constantly. Bad for babies. There are too many sources of emf's, wi-fi everything. Any one thing might not be so bad, but the totality adds up to trouble.
Dirty electricity is worse than wi-fi. Smart meters are for the benefit of the utility companies. Meter readers get fired. Few customers if any will change their appliances or time of laundry because of a few cents in electricity. Smart appliances will communicate constantly with the meter, making laundry rooms and kitches hotbeds of emf's. Big time electrosmog.

I put some of the garlic cloves in the pickled garlic container, and left some dry. I worked on the fabric for the background of the big letter G. At 5:30, I paused the interview and put on my shoes. My music was in the car, so I went to choir practice at church.
I was the second choir member to arrive. I picked up a copy of the new music from the back pew. Jennifer showed me pictures that her son had posted on Instagram. Then he came on live, answering questions. But by then the choir had assembled. So we had practice, and even went 5 minutes late. Pastor approached me and said the bible class prayed for me because I was having medical tests. I told him I wasn't, but would pass on the prayers to anyone I heard about.
Afterward, I went home, taking the scenic route. When I got back, Chris was sitting at his laptop and DS9 was cued on the TV. I drank some water and then we sat down and watched two episodes. Then Chris made his sandwich and went to bed. I stayed up to blog and swish and finish the interview.
* Fabric stamps, from show-n-tell last night. *

Another busy day

I got up around 7:30. I brushed and swished and sewed the beginning of a new ball of fleece yarn to the rug in progress. I turned on the router. I deleted the first round of e-mail and listened to most of an audio about how bras contribute to cancer.
Around 9:30 I got dressed. I gave a quick watering to the flowers. Jane's quilt-as-you-go was in the trunk, so I hopped in the car and went to quilting.
Beverly pulled up just as I did. So we walked in together. When I went in, Jane had an array of magazines that she was weeding from her collection. I talked with her and Anita for a few minutes. They were encouraging people to take strips to make quilts and fabric to make baby quilts for a special place. I saw the black and white bag that Susan made. I encouraged her to bring it to the class to show people. She gave me a channel-quilted machine cover that she had made. It was very nice. She was making a bunch – God bless her.
I worked on the binding for Jane's quilt, knowing I wasn't going to finish it. I listened to the other ladies chat. Some of them went to Susan's car to get books and magazines, but I didn't need any. When the ladies had gone, Beverly and I went walking around the neighborhood. It was really hot and someone stopped to tell us she admired our dedication. We walked a little over a mile.
When I left, I skipped the kimbap. I went straight home to make breakfast. I finished the audio on the danger of bras, and switched to the dangers of electrical fields:
Sitting in front of a computer, under a compact fluorescent light adds a charge to the human body. Standing on a conductive surface like tinfoil will discharge it. Or try an earthing blanket without plugging it in. In North America, power companies are allowed to shunt the electricity that won't fit on the ground wire, down to the earth. So standing on the earth in North America is not helpful. Stray electricity is not really 'stray'. The power companies put it there because it was cheaper than putting in updated ground wires. Stetzer filters will help with dirty electricity.

After breakfast and pickled garlic, I took a bottle of water and my offering sheets, and went to the church. Attendence was light so the offering was also. It did not take long to count it and record it and print out the reports.
I took it to the bank about 3:30. I considered going to the farmer's market, but there were more interviews to listen to. When I got home I checked the mail and found a thank-you note from Shannon for a baby quilt. Then I finished the interview and started another one:
Second interview was with the former CEO of Microsoft Canada, Frank Clegg. He says the wi-fi is dangerous, particularly 5G. He says we're not saying we don't want the internet of things, we just want the industry to find a safer way to deliver it. Wired connections are faster, less hackable, more sustainable and safer. Tech companies are trying to get states to pass laws allowing them to install 5G wherever they want, cutting out local ordinances.

I made and ate a large salad, some lamb, and chopped garlic. Then I headed out to the monthly meeting of the Modern Quilt Guild.
It was at a new place, but I was able to find it easily. I went in the back door. The meeting was about to begin. I felt like the last person to arrive, but there were others who came in during the meeting. For show-and-tell I held up my blue quilt and one of the fleece rugs. One lady had made a quilt from beer-themed fabric. They were going to auction it off at the bar on charity night – a fundraiser for our group.
There was a lot more to the meeting than I could possibly write about. It is a very active group and I cannot participate in everything they do. They passed around a sign-up sheet for making a rocket quilt. I did not sign up, but at the end of the meeting they said all that was left was to cut the backing fabric in half and sew the pieces side by side. I said I could do that and they handed it to me. Like I don't have enough to do.
I went home. Chris was sitting at his laptop. I took some homeopathic stuff for strong teeth.I finished the interview and Chris queued up Netflix. We watched two episodes of DS9. I rubbed some red onion on my head. I would have used the onions the Korean doctor gave me, but Chris cooked them up for supper on Sunday. I brushed and swished. I typed up my blog for tonight. I gave my seeds a 10 minute soak. I thought I'd see some sprouting by now. I swished again with black walnut tincture. Then I applied ozone cream to my gums and went to bed.

Taking a chance

I was up late last night looking for a solution to the capsaicin burn. I went to bed, but the burning kept me awake. It occurred to me that I had some activated charcoal. I went in the bathroom and rubbed some of that on my left hand. My right hand had stopped burning. It was rough and chunky so I put some coconut oil over it. And the burn decreased. It did not go away, but I was eventually able to sleep.
I woke up about 8. I realized that I had not worried about my teeth or the itching on my scalp. Hmmm. I brushed and swished. I folded laundry. I sewed a four-patch. I soaked my seeds or 10 minutes. I used a potato masher to put the fire cider ingredients further into the vinegar. I washed the masher and the jar to eliminate any stray capsaicin. I watched the how-to video again to see if she wore gloves. She did not. But I noticed that she chopped her garlic and I forgot to do that. Cripes.
I started a podcast and set out supplement bottles, getting ready for a new batch. Then Ron called. He wants me to call Jim to get numbers every month on giving and expenditures and write a little something for the newsletter. Will I remember to do it?
I made two weeks worth of supplements. I made a jar of chia and flax mix. I made breakfast.
As I was rolling my sewing cart out the door, I remembered the mail. I quickly wrote a check and addressed an envelop. Then, after I was on my way to quilting, I realized I needed gas. So I stopped at the gas station. So I did not get there until almost 12:30.
Bertha had gotten her charity quilt together and said the rest of the blocks were mine. There were only four. I started working on Jane's quilt. I got the binding sewn to the front and started whip-stitching it to the back. I found two places on the front where the sashing did not cover what it should have. I whipped it into shape. Alice and Carolyn both asked about Chris finding a job and I had to tell them not yet.
One lady had bought an embroidery machine on an internet site. Lauri and I went to her car to see it and bring it in. Lauri explained to her how to use it. I was surprised that it could do most of what mine can do, but it was only $400 when it was new.
It was almost 4 when I packed up. I went home to check the mail, and found Chris at his laptop. He had a package for me. I opened it and put away the supplements. There were homeopathic pills for stong teeth. I took the recommended dose. I checked my e-mail and listened to audios.
But it was getting late. S0 I went for a walk, even though I had felt a few drops. My first thought was to be on the lookout for juniper trees, but I also was aware of any unusual plants. There was a stand of plants with fire-red plumes of tiny berries. I felt like I should know what they are.
When I got back, I looked again for plants with red berries, but did not have any luck identifying anything around here. I ate some of the roast lamb with mustard. I made and ate a large salad.
I put on plastic food service gloves. I took garlic cloves from the fire cider and sliced them with a knife. I did not go through the whole jar because the gloves began to leak. I put the chopped garlic back in and threw out the gloves. Then I washed my hands really well, poured alcohol over them, and washed them again.
We watched two episodes of DS9. Chris made his sandwich and went to bed. I stayed up to swish and blog and prepare the recyclables for tomorrow.
* This is Bertha's quilt top. I will have similar blocks to work with for mine. *

Oh, the burn!

We heard the alarm ring at 7:30 but I was not able to get up until 8. I brushed and swished and sewed the ends of binding strips together. I took a shower and got dressed for church. I drank water and ate a fat bomb. I picked up a jar of honey and headed to church.
I got there early enough to give the honey to Jennifer before the choir practiced for a few minutes. After practice, I sat in my pew to peruse the bulletin. I filled out the pledge strip. Don came and sat beside me. I reminded him that it was Consecration Sunday and to fill out a pledge strip and put it in the offering plate. Well, when the pastor did the announcements before the service, he said there was a special basket for the pledge strips to be used near the end of the service.
At the appropriate time in the service, the choir assembled up front and we sang it pretty well. Don put his pledge card in the plate at the offering. I guess he didn't hear the pastor say differently. Later, during communion, Art fell getting up from the rail. Near the end of the service, the congregation lined up to put the pledge cards in the basket. After the service, Art took the offering to the back. Tim picked up the basket. I said there was at least one pledge card in the offering, so he looked through the plates and found 3 more. Three of us went to the front office to run the numbers. We alphabetized the slips. Ron had a printout with numbers on it by every name. We wrote new numbers by those names who had submitted a card. Then Tim added them all up. When we were done, Ron announced the number to the congregation in the fellowship hall. Then the three of us had some leftovers as the meal was being cleaned up. Dawn talked to me as I sat there. Eventually we had to go as everyone left. Ron gave me a container of fruit to take home since no one claimed it.
So I went home. I put the fruit in the kitchen and changed my clothes. I soaked the seeds for 10 minutes and made breakfast. After breakfast we went to Publix for groceries. We picked up a lamb roast. After we got home, we put the food away and Chris put the lamb roast in the oven.
After reading e-mail, I played some audios and ironed fabric while I listened. Later I took a walk to find the tree with berries. I took pics. I also found some shrubs that will have berries next month.
I downloaded the pics to my computer. I looked for what kind of bush it was. Then we heard a loud crash. Searching the house, Chris discovered that the globe of the ceiling fan had hit the coffee table and bounced to the piano and fractured into lots of pieces. He picked up the big pieces and I vacuumed. I emptied the vacuum cup and filter into a bag and Chris took it all to the garbage can.
I ate last of the heart stew. I peeled garlic, chopped it, and ate it with the last of the hummus. I peeled more garlic, threw it in a jar, chopped up horseradish and ginger root. I cut up all the hot peppers and threw them in. I added some basil and mint from my plants out front, plus the rosemary that Jennifer had given me. I pressed it down really well and doused it with vinegar to make a tonic (takes a month).
We started watching DS9. But my hands were burning. I tried washing them with an oil-based soap, but it didn't help. Chris called Mike and he recommended rubbing alcohol. That helped for a bit, but the burning came back. So I went to get ginger ice cubes. But they had dried out. So I got the Chillow from the fridge. I rested my hands on that while we watched the rest of the episode plus one more. The Chillow lost its chill. I tried ozone cream, but that didn't help. I tried the alcohol again, but it had no effect. I tried witch hazel. Nope. I looked on Google. Someone wrote about baking soda to neutralize the acid. Nope. Then I progressed to cucumber. Holding a slice of cucumber helped, but only for a few minutes. I had to cut more off every few minutes. Between short stints of typing, I tried other things: vinegar, kefir, butter, milk, argan oil, castor oil, oil-n-salt. Really the only things that helped were frozen, and then only while I held them. I washed my hands some more. Then I finished my post and went to bed.
* If you know the name of this bush, please tell me. *

Reservations for our anniversary

It was after 9 when I got up. Chris was already at his laptop. I brushed and swished. I sewed pieces of blue fabric to make a background for a large white G. I scanned and printed the G so I could cut it out as a pattern, but it printed larger. Chris tried and it printed smaller. It felt like we were wasting a lot of time on it. Finally we just copied the whole thing (which I was avoiding in the interest of saving ink).
Kurt texted me about Dad. That reminded me that his birthday is coming up. Chris gave me a full body massage with coconut oil. Then he stripped the bed and washed the sheets. I listened to audios, and made breakfast.
After breakfast, I melted beeswax and made a honey treatment for psoriasis. It was a little thick for using on my scalp. I looked at state parks and lodging for our anniversary. I called the state parks but no cabins were available for that weekend. Finally Chris made reservations in Mississippi, near Tishomingo state park.
I got a bag of cantaloupe from the freezer and ate most of it while looking for ancient dental practices. I came across a blog from a lady who improved her teeth by swishing with black walnut tincture. Since I had some, I tried it. It tasted just ok, not great. I also read about a technique where the dentist applies a mineral cocktail and then uses a small electric current to drive the minerals deep into the tooth. They say “Electrically Accelerated and Enhanced Remineralisation” can strengthen the tooth and reduce cavities.
I watered the plants out front and then went for a walk. I was hoping to find more juniper trees, but I didn't. When I passed the ones I'd seen before, I picked two juniper berries. I ran into a man walking with his son. I showed him the berries and he asked what I planned to do with them. So I told him about the tonic. He walked away repeating the name so he could look it up later.
When I got back to my laptop, I tried to identify the tree with red berries that I had seen on a previous walk. But nothing on the net seemed to be the same. I made and ate a large salad. Chris made his usual supper. I read e-mail and made some progress in shortening the list.
Chris was ready to watch TV before I said anything, so we got an early start. We watched three episodes of DS9. I put on a vit C patch and a sleep patch. Then he took the sheets from the dryer while I brushed my teeth. I swished while we dressed the bed. He laid down, and I pulled fabric from the laundry basket and folded it. There was more fabric than I remembered. Then I typed up my blog post while listening to an audio of binaural beats for falling asleep.
* Looks like carrot tops are growing in the moonlight. *

Catching up on e-mail and sewing

I got up about 9. I brushed and while I had the toothbrush in my mouth, a fly flew by. I grabbed a washcloth and swatted at it, bumping into the toothbrush and bruising the tissue connecting the lower gum to the upper gum at the back. I took a shower to get the zinc oxide out of my hair. It did not help with the itching.
I swished and sewed two patches together. I rinsed the seeds I soaked last night. I intend to sprout them even though the package did not say what kind they were.
I listened to the rest of the episode that I started last night:

Damiana is an aphrodisiac, increases chi. People smoke it or drink as a tea. Frankincense promotes joining. Tonifying the cardiovascular system is good for sexual health. Cottonroot bark promotes oxytocin. Ginkgo biloba is good for circulation. Saw palmetto is good for health of respiratory system and pelvic area. The sexual desire hormone is testosterone in both men and women. Ginseng raises testosterone, and overuse shows as aggression. Pine nuts help, too. Get hormone panel, vitex tea for progesterone, it is hormone-balancing. Makes pms go away. Tincture from the berry. Dong quai might be the most consumed herb in the world. In many countries, the women take it from puberty to death.

I made and ate breakfast. I was going to go to Blanket Daze, but the small pain in my back told me not to take my machine anywhere. After clearing some e-mail, I mowed most of the lawn. Some of it was still wet with dew, so I left the mower in the middle of the lawn where I would see it later.
Listening to a talk in put glutathione on sore gum, contact o3 company but they hung up on me and then I left a message. I tried to buy the e-book that the holistic dentist wrote on remineralization, but the site kept telling me there was an error in processing, but did not specify what it was. The O3 people sent an e-mail with a link to pay for the product. So I placed the order as shown, even though I had since changed my mind on sizes.
I sewed the last two rows onto Jane's quilt-as-you-go. I cut binding strips, ironed them in half and then cut the ends at an angle and pinned them together. I sorted through scraps to find blues to match the blue that the guild wanted for their banner. I also kept an eye out for reds for a barn block, and blacks for Beverly W. Then I went looking for the leftovers for my bag. When I found them, I put them in a bag for Tuesday. I cut corners on fabrics that were new and needed washing. I started listening to audios. I ate a bowl of heart stew. Chris came home from work while I was eating frozen fruit and holding the grapes against the sore area in the back of my mouth.

When I finished the bag of frozen fruit, I went for a walk. I took a baggie with me and picked poke berries along the way. On the walk home, I notice more junipers, one was full of berries. When I got home, I finished mowing the lawn and put the mower away. Chris had been sipping wine and filling out job applications online. He was very talkative and concerned about my feelings, not his usual self. He made his supper and I made a salad. I ate it while listening to an audio of Dr. Carrington, a 94 year old psychologist who hasn't retired yet. 8 pm came and went. I told Chris I was ready to watch TV any time. Somehow an argument ensued. I was no longer talking to tipsy Chris. He was back to his usual self. I busied myself at my sewing table. I started some patchwork for the modern quilt guild. When Chris was ready, he turned on DS9. We agreed not to have a fight since nothing was ever settled anyway.
Then we watched two episodes of DS9. Afterward, I checked on the moldy toothbrush I had left in the sink in a dilution of bleach. Much of the solution had seeped out. The brush was clean (at least enough to use in the tub). But there were black spots around the drain where the surface of the sink had come off. At least that's what it looked like.
I brushed my teeth in the other bathroom, and swished while typing up my blog. Then I took my evening supplements and used the ozone cream on both sides of my mouth. Then it was time for bed.

New remedy for itchy scalp?

I got up about 8:45. I brushed and swished and sewed two patches together. Chris came home while I was making forms for the guild library. His interview was over and he was changing his clothes. I started listening to the episode on cancer:

Chemo sensitivity test- what chemotherapy will be most effective. RGCC test will tell you what therapies will be most successful – including herbs and supplements. Conventional cancer treatments are good at killing cancer cells, whereas herbal treatments are better at changing the 'environment' which allows the cancer cells to grow. Cancer is a seed that needs the right soil to grow. Herbs can work well with chemo and help with side effects. 3 grams of medicinal mushrooms a day helps modulate the immune system. Every mushroom has a beta-glucan that is specific for a cancer. Many mushrooms gets cancer cells to commit suicide. Take ginseng to strengthen weakness. CBD oil with THC is good for cancer. Without THC is still good for pain, and anxiety.
I started a loaf of bread for Chris. I typed up and printed labels for the pockets in the donated books. I put some of the labels on and decided I could finish at quilting. I made breakfast. While I was eating, the laptop crashed. When it came back up, I listened to the rest of the episode.
It was late so I washed up and got dressed. I put the bag of books and labels out on the sidewalk and went back for my machine and sewing supplies. I put the supplies in the trunk and watered the plants. Then I went to quilting, leaving the bag of books on the sidewalk:(
When I got there, the room was full. I stood and talked to Nikki until I saw Pat leaving. I told Pat that I had inadvertently left the books on my side walk. She said she would go by and pick them up. After Marjory left, I set up my machine in her spot. I showed off the blue quilt with all it's borders and Susan took a pic for the group Facebook page.
I got ready to work on the quilt-as-you-go. I asked Christy if she had honey left. She did, but all I had was a $20. So I called Jennifer to see if she wanted a bottle of honey that was strained but not filtered. She had just bought some at a farmer's market but she agreed to get another one. So I bought two bottles from Christy. Then I sat down to sew rows 5 and 6 together. Pat came back. She had gotten lunch and picked up the bag of books from my house. So I spent a few minutes putting all the labels in the books, and double-checking that the forms I wrote for her were what she had in mind. And they were. I went back to sewing. By the time I pinned the set to row 4, everyone else was gone but Christy. So I packed up and headed home.
It started to rain on the way. So when I got home, I left my machine in the car. I came in and listened to another podcast, this one on protecting your home from radiation. I swallowed three packets of vitamin C. When the rain stopped, I went outside to check the mail and bring in my sewing stuff. I emptied several baggies with little bits of green or blue dye into one so I could submerge the yellow scarf. I am hoping it will come out green so I can wear it.
Soon Chris came home from work. He changed his clothes and settled in front of his laptop. I ate some heart stew, then made and ate a salad. I fixed some kava tea for later.
I scoured the internet to find a place to order more ozone cream. Only the company that makes the brand the dentist sold me, sells it. And their system isn't working properly. So I had to check other brands on Amazon, but could not decide which one might be essentially the same.
At 7 my tapping buddy said she needed a few minutes to finish supper. So I put zinc oxide on my scalp, and I started watching the next episode of Remedy:Ancient medicine for Modern Illness in the guest room. When she sent a ready message, I paused it and answered her call. We tapped for over an hour for eating issues. When it was over, I moved my laptop back to the dining room.
We watched two episodes of DS9. Chris nodded off several times. So he went straight to bed afterwards. I brushed and swished and wrote my blog entry. I rubbed my gums with ozone cream and massaged them. Then I went to bed.

I didn't know they come in yellow

I got up just after 8. I brushed and swished and sewed fleece strips together. I cleaned up the sewing area a bit, putting piles of fabric back in the fabric room (though not necessarily on the appropriate shelf). Then I swished again and watched part of last night's episode on sleep and energy.

Ashwagandha taken over time will help you sleep. Take it as a tea, at any time of day. Valerian: take increasing grams a day until it knocks you out. It works for four hours. You can drink tea at night, with a touch of lavender and california poppy to stay asleep. It takes 4 T of poppy seeds. Skullcap quiets the monkey mind, as does blue vervain. One cooling herb for sleep is shankhpushpi. Nutmeg lowers blood pressure and is sedating, slightly constipating. It loses its potency in two weeks after grinding. Take four hours before bedtime. Sleep will last 8 hours. It goes with poppy seed. Rhodiola for stress.

I did my exercises and made coffee. I rubbed my gums for circulation. I meditated and tapped. I cleaned the kitchen and bathrooms and swept the main areas. I pulled something in my back. I washed up and got dressed. I put on my homemade sandals. I watered the plants.
Then I went to visit the Korean clinic. They were concerned about getting the insurance money for their car, which got hit in May. I called both insurance companies, ironed out where the money went and what the next step should be. Then she had me lie on a table so she could rub my head with onion pieces. She talked to me the whole time. She said I should not eat chicken or beef heart or liver, or nuts. Instead I should eat steak, and 2 yellow kiwis a day, and a redbeet. Then she had me sit in a chair with my feet on a vibrating plate. At 4:15 I said I had to go. She gave me three onions to take home and rub on my head.
It was almost 4:30 when I got home. Chris was still gone. I parked and moved the trashcan back to its place. I checked the house mail, but it was empty. I made kava tea for later. I listened to the rest of the episode. I paused it when Chris came home from work. He was emoting about the change of venue for his interview tomorrow. And he has another interview for a job in Ohio. I finished the episode. I texted Jennifer about it. I changed my shoes and I went to choir practice.
I arrived a little early and talked to Cecelia. Then Jennifer warmed up the choir. We sang through 3 or four songs. We stood at the front to practice the piece for this Sunday. After we were dismissed, Jennifer talked to me about juniper berries and the fire cider.
I went home the long way. It takes too long to get on the parkway from Whetherly. When I got home, Chris was almost ready to watch TV. I drank some kava tea and took some magnesium. I finished my write-up for the class and e-mailed it to Ellen.
Chris cued up DS9 and we watched two episodes. I drank the rest of the tea. When I got back to my computer to write up my blog post, the laptop had rebooted. Lucky for me, and you, it saved all the notes I took. I swished while I typed. After posting, I took some hops and a drop of lavender and went to bed.

More for me to do

I got up around 8. I brushed and swished and sewed some fleece strips together. I turned on the router and checked e-mail. I listened to the rest of the episode from the Home Remedy Summit:
Hawthorne is good for the heart. The OPC's are good for the heart acting as anti-inflamatory. Tincture the berries for 6 weeks in alcohol. When your heart is in coherence, then the head clears emotionally. Argena tonifies the cardio system and good for tachycardia. Use both as tea, or powder. Motherwort – for heart. It lowers blood pressure, esp. in menopause. Linden – lowers blood pressure – a gentle tea. Hibiscus tea also is good. Garlic is a bridge between food and medicine. Chop it and let it sit before you throw it in. Guggul is good but expensive, boswellia is cheaper and almost as good. Tien chi is a blood tonic.
Depression: A little Saffron is good for depression. St John's wort flower for SAD, wort oil is good for pain. Chinese herbs to support chi help with depression. Use rhodiola for chronic fatigue. cacao has lots of minerals and chemicals to fight depression.
Lungs and respiration: needles and bark and resin of pinion pine. Make a tea and breathe in the steam. Pitch is good for infections.
When it was over, I had to get dressed for quilting. I grabbed the bag with the balls of fleece yarn and headed out. I would have watered the plants, but the watering can was empty.
When I arrived, I was happy to see Jane was there and looking pretty good. She said she felt tired, but then she's been through a lot. Susan asked me how to put her blocks together to make a mondo bag. Some one else asked me to write up an announcement for the class and what they needed to bring. I meant to do it, but got busy. I sat and talked with Anita and Beverly. I crocheted up almost two balls of yarn. Then Beverly brought her serger in and I went through the motions of threading it. There's nothing easy about threading a serger. But we got it done, then plugged it in and found out the light wasn't working.
After that, Beverly and I walked around the neighborhood, covering a mile by her phone calculation. Someone had pulled up pokeberry bushes and left them by the side of the road. I helped myself to 4 berries. When we got back to the church, she left and I went to the Asian store for kimbap. I got the second to last package. I asked about pickled garlic and they were out of the recommended brand.
So, I went home. I ate the kimbap with kimchi. I gathered up bags of glass recycling to drop off on the way to church. I printed out offering sheets, but it took too long. I left the recyclables on the sidewalk and headed to church.
I found the intern desk full of boxes of t-shirts. Why? I eeked out some room to count the checks and cash and record them on paper and fill out the deposit tickets. One lady wrote a split check, which meant that the deposit tickets would not match the computer records. I entered all the info on the church computer and printed out the reports.
Then I went to the bank and made the deposits. I headed back and stopped at the farmer's market. I picked up some hot peppers and tomatoes and another beef heart – the last one she had. I gave her back the jar she sold me milk in. Then I went home.
Chris was already home. I checked the house mail, but it was empty – not even junk mail. I ate a bowl of heart stew and took my supplements. I cleaned up some dishes in the sink. I compared prices on nuts and cacao between Nuts.com and Amazon. I submitted an order. All too soon it was time to go back to church for the stewardship meeting.
On the way to church, I drove under an overpass and was assaulted by a loud screeching sound that seemed to be everywhere at once. I don't know where it came from, but it really rattled me. I tapped the rest of the way to church.
I was expecting to see Tim there, but he and his wife had to rush to the aid of their son in Georgia. So it was just three of us. We discussed Consecration Sunday. It was suggested that I be the one to count all the pledge cards and write in something for those who don't submit one. I have to put the info in a spread sheet. Then the total gets announced to those eating at the potluck. No pressure. Ha!
It was after 8 when I got home. I had already made some kava tea. Chris cued up Netflix and we watched two episodes of DS9 while I drank kava tea and swished with salt water. When it was over, Chris made his lunch for tomorrow and I brushed and put on vitamin patches. I wrote up my blog post for today. Then I went through the e-mail again while swishing with the ozone cream.
* This is what Jane has been working on. *

Egyptian medical text

I got up about 8. I brushed and swished and sewed fleece strips. I turned on the router. I swished with sesame oil while checking e-mail. I finalized my Swanson's order. I looked at reviews for ozone machines. I rinsed the yellow scarf sitting in pokeberry juice and put it in a bucket of synthrapol. I listened to interviews. I learned that lactobacillis casei-shirota can be taken for stress that causes SIBO and gut problems.
I watched some tapping videos from my inbox. I made and ate breakfast, then got dressed. I grabbed the blue project and went to quilting. It looked like rain so I did not water the plants.
When I arrived, there were few ladies there. Lunch was over and some had left. I chatted and cut blue borders. Bertha and I talked about the 18 inch block quilt that she is making. Then I sewed the blue borders on. Finally, only Lauri remained. So we both packed up and left.
I went to Fresh Market. They had the horse radish root. So I also got garlic and ginger root. I picked up a jar of pickled garlic, but it wasn't exactly what I wanted. Then I went home.
I listened to another interview, and ate a bowl of heart soup. Chris came home. I showed him the tree where I got the berries. He confirmed that it was a juniper tree, and that most of the berries were not ripe. When we got back to the house, I made a salad with carrot tops, and the usual greens and olives and cucumber and hummus.
I looked online for a full translation of the Ebers papyrus for medical info. It covered lots of topics including dentistry, but I could not find more than an excerpt. I read an article about the use of aspirin to regenerate dentin, but there was as yet no way to apply it that would stick. Then I collated recyclables and put them out by the street. I folded my laundry and put it away. Chris cued up DS9 and we watched two episodes while I swished with salt water. Then I swished with tooth powder and hydroxyapatite while typing up my blog and watching part of the next episode of Home Remedy Summit (which is almost two hours long!)
* The blue quilt top is finished! *

First day of choir

Chris set his alarm for 7:30 to wake me up. I wasn't in a wake-up mood, so I tapped. I was up by 8. I brushed and swished and sewed fleece strips. I washed up and got dressed. I read e-mail while listening to part of the next episode of The Home Remedy Summit. I paused it around 8:50 to put my shoes on and get ready to go to church.
When I got to church, the time was 9:16. It seems the parkway cuts off 4 minutes. I went inside the sanctuary to talk to Jennifer, who was talking to Tamara. Afterward, Jennifer handed me a sheaf of music. She played the alto part of the music for today. Then I searched the cart for an empty folder to put it in. I sat in my usual place. Barbara said Don was still on his trip, so I was alone.
Before the service, there were two temple talks. Tim spoke about stewardship and outreach. Then Cassie talked about going to Honduras as a nurse and asking people to donate adult vitamins and children's aspirin. But no gummies because they melt in the heat.
During the service, Don arrived and I gave him a small hug. It was good to have him back. After the service, I promised to see him next week. Several people said the choir sounded good. I talked to Susan on the way out. I went to my car and drove it home.
At home, I checked e-mail and ate the last of the seed crackers. I changed my clothes and we went to Publix. I wanted to make the Four Thieves Tonic that Jennifer made, but it uses horseradish root which Publix did not have. So I didn't buy the rest of the ingredients either.
It poured rain as we wheeled the groceries to the car. But the rain was largely over when we got home. We brought the food in and put most of it away. I put a bottle of adult vitamins on the Tuesday pile. Chris defrosted a beef heart for dinner. He also boiled eggs for lunches. I made and ate breakfast while finishing the episode from this morning. I read up on homeopathy for teeth. I put some calc-fluor and calc-phos in my Swansons cart. I found the video Jennifer was talking about. I watched it and realized she hadn't mentioned the juniper berries. So I went for a walk, looking for them. I found a tree with berries and broke off a sprig to bring home. I kept walking and got rained on.
When I got back, I gave the sprig to Chris. He said it was either juniper or cedar. I sent a pic to Jennifer. I soaked some seeds in water. I made more spice mix and refilled the bottle. Then I used the soaked seeds to make seed crackers. By then the heart was cooked. It was cubed into what looked like onion soup. Chris also made quinoa. So that's what I had for supper. He had used the organic carrots and left the tops for me. I cut them off and left them in a bowl of water, intending to eat them in a salad. But I got too full for that. So they ended up in a glass of water for tomorrow.
I started watching the next episode. When Chris was ready, we watched several episodes of DS9 while I swished with salt water. Then we dressed the bed in clean sheets. I swished with tooth powder and xylitol while listening to the rest of the episode on Lyme. I put on vitamin patches. Then I rubbed ozone cream on my gums behind the molars and the broken tooth. The gums did not like being rubbed. I let the cream sit while I put away the seed crackers and typed up my blog.

Sewing (and swimming) Saturday

I don't know when I got up. I brushed and swished and sewed fleece strips together. I rolled up the ball of fleece and put it in with bag with the rug. I added a baggie with needle and thread. Then I brushed again, and drank lemon water while reading e-mail and listening to the next episode from the Home Remedy summit:
One herbologist wishes he could convince every oncologist to give their patients astragulus to repair their immune system. Drinking salt water stops autoimmune looping.
It was hard to finish the audio with Chris talking to me and Jennifer texting me. She invited me to swim in her pool this afternoon. When the audio was over, I took a shower, put on a bathing suit and covered it with a top and shorts. I put on my shoes and packed Jane's project. On my way to the car, I realized the flowers needed watering, so I gave them a quick splash. I noticed that the ground crew had weedwhacked all my mint. Then I put my machine in the trunk and headed out.
I arrived at the library before lunch arrived ( though it was after noon). I set up my machine. Amanda gave me a piece of a puzzle to recreate in fabric. I got to see what some other people did with their pieces. When all the pieces go together, it will be our guild logo.
There were 15 charity blocks laid out on the table. My job was to cut them down to 10 inches. Some already were. But some were smaller. After cutting down the larger ones, I used the trimmings to make the smallest ones larger. But there were too many smaller ones. Lucky for me, they were at least 10 on one side. So I made two rows that were 3/8 inch less than the others. Then I started sewing the rows together. By 2:40 I had three rows together and 4 more to go. But Jennifer was expecting me at 3, so I packed up and headed out.
She did not live far from the library. So I got there right on time. She was waiting out by the pool. I took off the clothes covering my suit and got in the pool. I started picking out the leaves that were falling in. Soon she joined me. We talked about health practices and herbology, and her kids. She told me how hard it was to find horseradish root.
Later her son came by to participate in making Four Thieves Oil. It was after 5 so I dried off, and got dressed. I gave her some moringa that I had dried and ground up. I was about to leave when Tim texted me. I had to look up something in the bank bag and texted him back. Then I drove home.
I watered the plants out back and picked some dandelion. I made and ate a salad and a bowl of onion soup. We called Al to wish him a happy birthday. He and Michele were watching My Big Fat Greek Wedding.
We watched the rest of the episodes of McHale's Navy that were on the DVD. I drank some kava tea and swallowed a tsp of magnesium. I looked on the internet to find clues to why I ordered a dolomite supplement. I swished while I typed up my blog. Then it was time for the ozone cream and bed.
* Not exactly my taste in quilts. *
