16 June 2023 Notable Thing(s)

What notable things happened today?

Hello to you, how are you? The most notable thing that happened today was I woke up on the green side with Link beside me! It’s another sunny day, birds are singing and it’s quiet right now – there have been lots of fire truck sirens today.

Something else happened too. In the mail I got a notice from a debt collector for like $1200! I responded that it’s not my debt – we shall see what happens! The debt collector, Mountain Land Collections LLC seems legit – I found them on the internet. I have no idea of anyone I owe that much money to that it would have gone to collector! So frustrating!

Good intention for today – Life is fragile handle with prayer

1 May 2023 Sticker Shock

Hello to you. How are you today? I’m feeling a little bit of sticker shock. The pest removal rep just left and it’s not cheap to have all natural pest removal! I know I could have gone and bought spray but that wouldn’t get to where the ants are. He showed me pictures of the mounds underneath the crawl space. They are coming up from there through the walls. So hopefully it will be worth it.

It seems like for every good service I’ve needed for this house it’s cost me a lot of money.

Home ownership and maintenance isn’t cheap here in Idaho – wasn’t cheap in Texas either. I remember when our AC unit went we were out over $6000 to replace that! It’s a good thing I don’t have a lot I spend money on besides food, utilities and gas for the car.

1 Timothy 6:10New International Version

10 For the love of money is a root of all kinds of evil. Some people, eager for money, have wandered from the faith and pierced themselves with many griefs.

6 April 2023 Community

How would you improve your community?

Hello to you. The prompt for today is a good one. How would I improve my community would be mainly doing a better job with growth planning. Our state is experiencing extreme growth and is scrambling to keep up with it. There are so many new houses being built and the infrastructure is tough to keep up with it – primarily roads. Traffic at certain times of the day is horrendous! We have a lot of people who moved here from California and they left behind traffic jams hoping it would be different here and it’s not. Where you go there you are! You may have left California but you brought who you were when you lived there with you to Idaho.

I can’t really complain too much as I moved here from Texas. Texas was experiencing a lot of growth before I left and that continues since I’ve been gone. People can’t afford to retire in places like California or Colorado so they move to places with lower cost of living. The sad thing is like for here all those people coming here have priced out natives trying to retire or get their first home. The new transplants have made it almost impossible for people to afford a home here with current wages not keeping up with the cost of living. So they are building lots of apartments that the average Idahoan can barely afford to live in. I was looking for a place to rent but couldn’t afford it so I was fortunate to find the tiny home I’ve got.

23 November 2022 Taxes and Movement

Hello to you. How are you? Today I got my Idaho property tax bill – $672! Not exactly thrilled about that. The other thing today is my swaying issue. I can barely walk it was so bad today. So frustrating . I have an appt on Monday about it. There is a part of me that is skeptical that the medical establishment will be able to help me. We shall see what happens. There is a part of me wondering if this was brought on by the tasering I experienced back in August. They say brain damage can be a side effect.

21 November 2022 Birthday and Service

Hello to you today. Hope this finds you well. Yesterday we celebrated my Aunts birthday at Olive Garden and boy was it busy there! It was nice to be together though and the meal was really good. She had the tiramisu for her birthday dessert and shared it.

On the way home yesterday I got an alert of low tire pressure so I called Perfection Tire and Repair in town this morning and they said they could help me out first come first serve. They aired up my tires for free! I was so grateful about that! Totally unexpected and appreciated.

28 July 2022 A Personal Relationship

For a long time , most of my life, I have loved God. As I have matured and learned so much about matters of organic energy and matters of the spirit I have learned through personal experience how important it is to have s personal relationship. A relationship no one outside of myself can define. No book or written word. Sometimes just the sound of aspen leaves blowing in the wind. Always present. Recently I made a choice I had been straddling the fence about for many years. I decided to surrender my soul to Jesus Christ….not in the book but the one I have come to know through a personal relationship. In the sky, God and the Earth my mother…our shared mother and once they made a son. I don’t believe he left such is not the way of this system as I understand it. Too many words. Human beings trying to make sense of things as they had understanding at the time. Words of the time that have changed in ours. So many translations. So many individual perceptions. We are in the one circle. Sometimes mythology is our only comfort in times of great loss and confusion.
