RISE N' SHINE!
Talking about a way too early phone call! A far too early wake up call, all because of two additional tubes of blood that were accidently missed during yesterdays labs. All I wanted to do, was sleep in peace. Finally, some peace and quiet without the chainsaws from a ridiculous winter project that started a week ago. So much for moving to a place with some peace, quiet and away from the big city noise. PFFFF!
What really annoys the be-jeepers out of me, is why in the world does the electric company have to literally cut hundreds of trees, right down to their stumps??!?. When in all reality, if the tree tops are touching the power lines, just flipping trim/prune them back like most companies in the big cities do. So much for the once beautiful scenic views, that were, once beautiful. Now they are literally being destroyed, one tree at a time. Honestly, it makes me sick. It's really a shame. Not the shame of the forest and trees that have withstood the test of time, decades upon decades, but instead, such a shame that we are the ones who destroy such beauty. Earth's beauty and the wildlife that are left scattering for safety. It makes me sick! The sounds of the chainsaws also bring with it, seizure auras that I was hoping, to possibly put to rest. All with the peace, quiet and abundance of nature that we 'assumed' was to come with our new home.
A home that has literally been nothing but, pure 
hell since day 1.
AMEN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
A mere country setting, in a little lazy river town, has been nothing but, pure EVIL hell. HAHAHAHA! OK, once again, yes! That did sound funny! It's really no joke in what I am saying, but sometimes through the pure sadness, one has to find some sort of happiness. There are some things in life, that are out of your control. Those are the times when you have no other choice, but to let things be in God's hands. It might also help to channel the spirits of our native America Indians, those who once lived on such sacred land. Heeheeheehee! You bet! I got my sage and ceremonial feathers out! I plan on using them too!
*WINK-WINK*
So... 
As we wait for the chainsaws to come back this week. As we were told, will continue until the project is complete. One can only hope and pray that my body will be able to withstand the test of time. A test of mental and physical endurance. It's either me or the house.
I wonder who will outlive and outlast who first?..
down
A few hours quickly turned into four hours and hopefully a few missing puzzle pieces might help to solve a year old mystery for an entire family. I left feeling completely exhausted. Mentally... depleted. By the time I got home, everything seemed like one huge blur. I even started dozing off while attempting to take a nice, warm, relaxing bath. One would believe that maybe exhausting my energy. Even, mental energy, would not be such a wise idea with a compromised immune system, still recovering from failed oncology treatments. Yet, still I felt the need for closure. Not just for the entire family that I visited, but as well, for myself. Almost an entire year of someone visiting you, relaying important information to you, in the most unexplainable ways. For me, last night was closure for both myself and the victim of such a senseless act. The loss of life. 
Of course, I did run into a skeptic, but there will always be skeptics in this world. We are all skeptics of something, not just regarding the gift of connecting with the afterlife, but skeptics of many other things. I don't believe in UFO's, but that doesn't mean they don't exist. I am a skeptic of anyone who hunts for a sport, overpaid sports for entertainment purposes, mail order brides, any movie that is constantly plugged by the media, black Friday sales, etc, etc, etc. You get the picture! 
special
Early this morning, while taking our beloved fur children outside in order to enjoy the peaceful silence, calm of the world. While all is asleep. I embraced the tranquility of such a beautiful sky with so many bright and quite mesmerizing stars. I took a moment, as I always do around the same time, to send a special blessing to those back home in heaven.
I have been pondering on when it would be the 'right' time to talk more about my gift. I believe that everyone in this world has a gift. Some of us, a very blessed gift. I guess with so many skeptics out there in the world, as I told the publishing company, "Most would not even take the time to listen, whether alone, even believe such a gift." 
happy
Snoreo and Littleblue are absolutely paw over tail with our first snowfall of the season! They could literally play outside for hours in the snow! Yep, it's in their blood as they had a blast playing at the local dog park. I even tagged along for the ride this morning. 8am and out the door! Crazy, how I am now able to enjoy the breath taking early morning sunrises and the beautiful evening sunsets. It's all part of my, "Let it go..." lifestyle. No stress, no worries, just go with the flow and let it... go.....
Seems our house is acquiring the same type of motto as it continues to let it's self go... From one separated stone and separated slab of concrete at a time... With this being Eric's loan, using his hard earned veteran benefits. When it's time to go to the local media, he will know. It is definitely getting close to that time as the bank executive landed himself in major trouble after returning back to work from his holiday break. I told Eric, that it was very odd that he did not return our calls nor emails as he clearly instructed us to do, continue keeping in close touch, before leaving on holiday break. A few phone calls to the bank headquarters... Another rare, less than 5% of good people still left in this world, got reprimanded as Eric was told by his superiors, that he should not had disclosed to us nor directed us on what to do. The problem, is that their employee with a huge heart was communicating with us via email. All of those emails have been saved, along with everything else pertaining to the loan, to be used for a later date. In court.
cheeky
TRUMBLEEEEEE!"
With the constant and quite extreme changes in temperature, comes with it, further sounds from the foundation below. If our house wasn't already literally separating enough as it is, just imagine our surprise to see the continued separation from the exterior wall connected to one of our bedrooms! As projected by the engineers... A few more months to go and one could literally, "BE ONE" with the great outdoors! YEEEE~YIKES! No worries though, this Auroraville house of horrors story is far from over as Eric decided that going to the local media might serve him the best and as well for other potential homebuyers. The busiest time for the housing market is right around the corner, so why not look out for the best interest of others who might be looking for a new home within the next few months?. Especially other veterans! Eric is adamant on making sure to continue sharing his own personal experience with other veterans in hopes of protecting another family from going through the same housing nightmare. A great lesson to be learned by all! What to look for and what to watch out for and whom to never buy a home from again... In our housing market? For now... 'MUM' is the word.
WOO~HOO!!!
celebratory
bright
rushed
We are set to move into our temporary rental home next week. I had a strong gut feeling not to unpack after moving our contents into our newly purchased, lemonade house of horrors. Instead, we left everything packed in boxes and carefully placed them in the middle of the basement. It's only been 2 months, but with environmentally unsafe air, all of our contents have to be transferred to plastic totes. Who in their right frame of mind would want to bring over this toxic air into another home? HECK NO! I actually anticipated the repacking project to take at least 3 days, but Eric has been on a very determined roll! We should be ready, all packed up, with our belongings safely placed into new plastic totes by tomorrow. YAYYY!!!
I attempted to stop doing my Relistor injections, but as well, that failed. Royally! When you have an obsolete GI tract and large tumors as well causing major digestive problems. One has to do, what one has to do. Back to what has always proven to work for me. I refuse to suffer through the rest of my journey, but as well, I refuse to be placed in a comatose state. Not now anyways.... Right now, I need to do my best to work with the right combination of drugs that will allow for me to 
have the best days possible when I am blessed to be given a good day or two, even hopefully, three! Bad days? Well... They will happen and as told, more frequently, as expected. No more schedules. I now listen to my body and allow the rest that is needed. 5 hours of energy today isn't very good, but it's 5 hours. It was a happy, productive as my body would allow, 5 hours. We even laughed a good majority of those 5 hours while myself and Eric reminisced about the past. The good, bad, happy and even, the sad. Let's face it, I plan on laughing and smiling as long as I can, all the way to the end of the road...
Amazing~
There is no sense in continuing to try to control, what can no longer be controlled. There is no further sense in trying to change things, that can no longer and some, never could be changed. It's a new year and a new beginning. Time to also rid of what needs no longer to be held onto. Some... for sentimental reasons. I finally was able to let go of my beloved Lucky's heart medications. Its time to let go of 
what limited the last two years of a very short special kitties life. I am so glad we were able to enjoy watching Lucky play with her new buddy and guardian kitty, Mittens. We didn't find her, Mittens found us at our prior residence. Lucky actually found her as a stray kitten that started coming around, eating bird seed, while watching us through the window. The rest of the story? Well... of course... Mittens is now enjoying the life of one extremely happy and beyond spoiled fur child. During the final hours of our beloved Lucky's life. Mittens remained by her side, watching over her. God had plans for Mittens. God had plans for us welcoming another one of his special animals sent from Heaven. XOXOXO
One thing I have learned with my journey, is just how important a good diet is for the human body. I have reiterated time and time again to Eric, on watching what he eats. What he puts into his body.
I don't eat any fast food. I still remain on a very 
highly nutritional diet that consists of mainly liquids. I will remain devoted to trying any and all organic, msg-free, no-sodium products. No red meats, pork or chicken. I rarely eat fish and can actually count on one hand how many times I consumed fish last year. By the words of my oncologists, specialists and dietician, "You may be fighting an uphill battle, but your diet has helped in playing an important roll of outliving the odds. A one year prognosis has turned into two years. Way past anyone's expectations. Your diet has played a crucial part in your survival." 
There is another, new year 2017, resolution that I promised myself. To some, skeptics, those who don't believe... Keep not believing, all the way back home to Heaven. For me, I consider myself with a special gift that started at a young age. I chose for decades to keep it to myself, but only to talk to others, connecting with those who also have a gift. I plan on reconnecting with my gift on a daily basis this new year. We have so much equipment, that has sadly been placed to the side in hopes of giving myself a gift of a cure. Time to... Let it go... Let things go medically and now take that energy and focus spiritually. I have crazy enough, predicted the majority of what has transpired with our lemonade home. I have also made some very remarkable connections over the past few months as if my gift has been literally screaming at me. 
That is how I plan on celebrating the last day of 2016! Lots of rest and plenty of snoozing... zzzzzz....
of fresh air in order to clear the ole mind a bit! Nothing wrong with enjoying another beautiful morning sunrise, while Eric let Snoreo and Littleblue run their energy out at our local dog park. Forget needing a huge fenced in back yard. We got two ginormous fenced in dog runs at a new dog park, a mere 2 minutes from our lemonade home. Our temporary rental home is only a few streets away. At least we will be super close in order to keep an eye on any vandalism issues once we vacate our house of lemons. It is also within only a mere 2 minute drive from the dog park. Talking about some very happy fur children! Heeheeheehee...
This New Years Eve is another first for me, as I remain home for the holidays. No way! Will I risk catching any viruses going around right now. Especially when I still need to rid current infections. Eric picked up my next round of strong antibiotics and IV meds from the hospital pharmacy this afternoon. I am extremely lucky and very fortunate to be able to continue home care, away from being stuck in a hospital. God willing, if I am blessed to beat a double infection. I plan on enjoying a bit of happiness with lots of laughter and plenty of smiles! Creating more new and very happy memories in 2017 with our little family. XOXOXO
