Energetics AND Something is Different Lately, Very Very Different - I moved out of the Matrix *updated 10/2019

I have to put in an update here because as I read this post, sadly, I must share that this positive energetic change ended rather quickly and has reverted back to its old crap just 3 months after moving here in May 2018, which means the positive left by August 2018. Someone wrote and asked me if the changes were still positive and I shared that they were not. What changed it back? Well, I would have to say, with a great deal of thought, study, testing, retesting and observance, it was john. For 18 years living with him in the older house, and now again, he was only different for the 3 months of getting me out of TN and moving me here to Gainesville, and then he reverted back to his old slothful and negligent zombie like character which was the norm for 18 years. So the question now is, what possessed him for those 3 months to make all those positive changes? Why did it leave? When I queried him about this he also saw that he was back to his old self which he said he buried in the old house....but he doesn't know why he returned. I say it was because his old self never left, but something new, positive and fresh and caring took me out of a life/death scenario, and then left john again to his old self. John asked me how to get that positive john back, and my jaw hit the floor, and I told him "it is not for me to do that, it is for you to want that john back and to do whatever you did before to get him". But since that has not happened, my belief at this point is john was "taken over", for 3 months to make changes, then left. A sorry sorry thing for sure. October 2019.  So what I saw as positive changes for others, not just myself, was not the case. I was wrong, sorry to be wrong and am apologizing for such a perception. But joy sure did make me feel all kaleidoscopic for time.....I was a fool......but it was an illusion, a thoroughly complete illusion.

First I want to say that I will be posting differently from now on. I tend to make long ones, when I really want to keep them short. So I am going to try to post short energetics again. Thanks to those who read my little empathic blog. This first section is on Empathic Energetics as I sense/live them and then more on my personal journey for those interested. And I would love your feedback. <3


Empathic Energetics: 

The "something", the "Earth changes" heart/soul based humans have been waiting for is upon us. I cannot be the only one experiencing this. I am sure of it. The Universe I/we are in now is far friendlier now, and supportive of my endeavors as grand or domestic as they may be, and things are actually FLOWING now. There is ease. There is what one can only refer to as something "right".

Anyone who doesn't believe huge dimensional changes are happening must look deeper, make radical moves, or look more closely, or do something out of character, or a list of many other things, but IT is happening and can be made to happen. One must not only negate the old world, but also create the new you want to live in. That creating part is only for you to do and no one else.

I am feeling the world now, that I have had in my heart for ages. I committed to living only how I want to live (as much as possible in 3-D).
That there is now a safe space also for others to do so. While it was locked down before, the prison net has broken, and new realities can be made. Must be made otherwise, the old still lives on.

I have deliberately and intentionally renounced the crazy patriarchal wasteland that is the 3-D matrix filled with soulless beings, to spend all the rest of my own time, energies and imagination creating a world of my own. I needed to do this while I lived. It can be done. There is something critical about this part.....a deliberate all consuming creating of ones own world out of the real energies of love. This is not for my own life I must stress, but that some blueprint of potentiality is forged into reality when one does this with ones entire being, that makes it possible for others. The vanguard, so to speak?

This can happen for others who do the same. A complete break has to be made, with ones entire being. Nothing less. Only engage as much as what keeps one safe from all bureaucratic complications, otherwise, create your own world.

I am also deliberately abstaining from reading, or doing anything involving the "old world", for me it is gone.
Empathically......I feel the New Worlds upon us not just because I sense it, but because I am living it. At first I thought it was just the result of a huge sense of relief. No, its far more than that.
It was rather sudden too. Interesting that one quote that has always sung to me was "in the twinkling of an eye".......yes, it can be like that.
But it is imperative that those New Worlds are created by your own hearts and imaginations.
May I suggest you all who want your own world begin to create it with everything you have in you. Even if you think you don't have the energy, I certainly didn't, but it can be done. Somehow.
Find others who you resonate with and can live in peace with and partner up. Find ways.

I believe in feeling into the new "realities" as such, because there are many now, that they need to be filled in, or are a blank canvas so to speak, that need the artistry of the imaginal realms of those who are creators with heart and soul. This requires action and absolute intention. Go forthe and create.

This part below is more on my own personal journey and evidence of the New Realities:

I've been wanting to write this for weeks. I just didn't know if it would last.

There is something very very different in my life.
One could say, I got out of a toxic place and energetics, and I would say emphatically, yes.
But its much more than that.

One could say country life is different, and that space of lots of green, trees and grass, real Earth beneath ones feet, with fewer people would create more peace and I would say yes again. Its that too.

One could say alot, but what I'm saying is that it is all of that and more > More what I call "natural" forces of life, which are magical in the always positive sense. What I know to be my Truth.

There are a crazy number of synchronicities happening, and synchronicities are wonderful events happening in the physical world that tell you the Universe and You and now (re)-United.
These synches or serendipities which is a more fun word, are happening almost every day. I cannot even count how many dozens have happened since I made the move out of TN and back into Florida Country. It literally began when John arrived and helped so much (out of character :-) me pack so we could drive out the next day. But the synchs are happening for both of us independently. For example, he needed that job in Gainesville, and was immediately hired, interviewed only by phone and got the job on the spot. Unlike previous protocols. And Gainesville is where I had said I wished we could move to years prior when I helped someone move here. Synch.
More mundane examples are, I want a specific rare plant and he finds it in a store the next day.
It happened again the other day, when we went out shopping on his day off, and I wanted to check the garden center store to see anything new....(I'm a huge plant/nature person) and my favorite plant is Maidenhair Fern......delicate, lacy, whimsical plants that love water and shade and whose spiritual meaning I just learned is Beauty and Love. So there.

So we arrived at the store and there, in a box were a bunch of maidenhair ferns, just arrived, not even priced yet.
The same happened with our trees. He and I both wanted Italian Cypress trees and had always seen them in stores but they were very small, dried up and too expensive on top of that. Once here, we found tall ones, very green, healthy, maybe 13 feet tall, taller than our house, and the price was right, and we had them delivered. The same with the 3-ball topiaries. The same with a shallow bowl I spent 2 hours searching for online 2 nights ago, and when we went to H.D. the other day, there they were in terracotta, not plastic, the right size, color and the price was almost thrift store priced compared to what I'd seen online that I liked. They were not there just days ago. This keeps happening with all kinds of little mundane things. Nice!

2 days ago I had a lovely emotion filled dream of almost being able to have a cat again. I love to have the cat choose me, for those who understand that, but since 2010 none have come though I have tried out a few. This dream was magical in the sense that there was a woman who had 2 kittens, black, both male and they were looking for a home. I was interested but wanting to see if the cats wanted me too. There was a man there who also wanted the kittens. The woman watched and listened to us both. The man was talking more, I was feeling more.....for the cats. The cats remained neutral....though aware that both the man and I could potentially be their new parents. The man seemed to have won out, he was more vocal, aggressive in his desires and commenting on their traits, while I remained receptive. I had fallen in love with them, and finally I fell to my knees in front of the woman, with my expression being one hopeless in love and nothing else to say. The woman however made the decision. She awarded me the cats, and I was shocked because the man clearly claimed them, but she said, "this was not about favoritism, but about love". So she awarded them to me. I felt so mushy grateful.
The next day, when we checked the garden store for new arrivals of plants, I found my maidenhair ferns in a box, yet unpacked as mentioned,! And with this in hand a lovely young calico cat meandered right to my feet and I remembered my dream of the previous night. I was so happy to be petting the furry thing who was loving the affection. The woman who worked there said there were two male kittens there in the store looking for a home. And John said I'd better hurry since a man there was also interested in the cats. It was my dream, in a sense. He had already claimed them. (deja vu) But he could have them. I wanted female cats, they are not territorial and don't spray and stink. The woman told me she had younger females at her home and they too were looking for a home. I may have a lovely furry love in my home any day now. She just called John :D.
It keeps happening. Almost every day.

I can fix something that frustrates john, and what I cannot fix, he can. Its crazy. Odd that "flow" seems ''crazy" now lolol.
Its "right" to the point that this is what life should be, never was, and now is shocking and takes getting used to. Yet feels very much what life should be.

A little backtrack. Two days after leaving TN my red and pained eyes of the previous year were no longer red. John also said the swelling of my eyes went down to almost normal. I had to look in the mirror and he was right. The eye problem started when I got to TN. I thought it was the dry air. I kept trying to find 3-D explanations for this new problem. I went to the eye doctor and he found nothing.
The eyes are the windows of the soul. My soul was sick in TN. Something was making my soul sick. Something vile and evil. And I am not a wimp. I grew up in badlands of drugs, violence and poverty and became not only a warrior of my Self but a guardian of others unable to protect themselves. But that is another book.
Since leaving TN my hair stopped falling out and is shiny again. I have less pains. And there is more but I want to move on.

These changes in paradigm is not just country life. This is not just being away from toxic beings from whatever dimension they hail from. Its not just having my own space.

THIS is a totally different reality. I look out of my windows and see an Italian Mediterranean garden in its beginning stages. How can this be already? With only a few additions to this land of grass and trees?
This is a totally different reality. It literally feels like I've left that 3-D matrix system and am finally in a world of my own making. I can fall back into old "feeling patterns" but check myself right out of them again, taking note of the reality I am currently in and moving forward. There is a HUGE  difference. Its almost like it keeps telling me, "don't think back..... don't feel back...... don't fall back....be present in this fresh new space. Come on, and believe........It is clean and waiting for artistry."

The feeling is also that I am finally energetically "alone".....with my own thoughts, feelings and energies. Before, in all my previous life apparently, I've been bombarded, albeit unknowingly, with energies from all kinds of things, from other people, from other non-people, from unseens, from EMF's, from solar/lunar energies, Earth energies, etc......and it has been impossible to separate myself from all of that.
It seems now I can. I can feel my Self. I can feel only me when I check in and see what is going on. I can see now when my own thoughts are generating feelings and I can correct or change them. I can see when "weather" is not real weather but manipulated which is toxic also.
I now feel like I can be alone and this feels so good, because being with my Self is so relieving and feels so clear and clean. I can breathe, I can sigh.....with space. I can empty my thoughts when I want. I can be quiet when I want.

This is hugely different. This is not merely a move to another Earthy location, this is a move to another dimension, another reality, one that is my own, though still here in 3-D.

They said this could happen. I heard it literally hundreds of times. I spoke of it myself. I determined it my Self.......and now I am living it.

It seems that the drive from TN, with our things en route to a new home, and john and I driving in a car on the road to a new life, new location, heaven-bent on our old routines of simple joys, was the path, the orbit that took us to a different reality. He drove, Impeccably I might add, because I was so worn out, falling asleep while awake etc and not wanting to poke Murphy that beast of wrongs,.....and we drove in silence for almost 2 days.


I said in my previous post that some things are unbelievably perfect about this house, this location and this life, even though we literally picked a house out of 2 internet pictures, had the pods with our possessions sent to this location, and were driving to this as a new home before we even owned this house. Crazy, I know. But if you're not just a bit crazy you'll never be able to outpace the insanity of patriarchal systems. You need just a bit of crazy to be able to maneuver around them, to be malleable and spontaneous, and say F*&k it and move forward in ruthless ways. We did that. We had no time to think. We had to move forward. I had a only single day instead of the planned 4, to pack a container thanks to the saboteur repeatedly refusing my POD being delivered days before I had to leave, but I maneuvered and made it work because I had to be a bit crazy. And though the saboteur tried to assert its own false authority over my circumstances (the supervisor of the POD called me to find out why it was cancelled, NO I didn't cancel it! He said the owner of the house cancelled it, I had to beg him to bring it anyway, thank god my neighbors allowed it on their property and that is how I was able to have it).......So even with all this and more happening, we still managed to get out on the day we needed, to get on the long road to another dimension and another alternate reality. WE did.

I am still recovering from being so "sick" on so many levels as I was in TN.
The creation of this New Reality is more mine than his, since he does not create. He just enjoys what I create, and I have huge huge unlimited imaginal realms of knowledge and experience from my Soul where I have lived in absolute Freedom as a Creator. I am still limited here in this dimension by physicality of material things and funds, but not in my imagination and intentions. And I am still, after all these years focused on what I want to create, the beauty, the harmony, the simplicity, the Peace, the memories of wondrous magic.......and finally it seems my Universe has formed itself around my steadfast intentions and is forming itself into manifestation.


We left chaos. We left crazy. We left sabotage.
It has been consistent.

So why am I telling you this? Because I don't believe it is only me experiencing things like this, huge changes like this, not just cute stuff, but literally an alternate reality that is friendly and femininely nurturing towards our needs both physical and emotional. Its almost like we speak them in voice and they show up in physicality. That is more than just positive, that is a totally different than Earthly paradigm.

Now, to move back some years.....

I have been working on dismantling. And I mean DISMANTLING.......the perilous realities created here by psychopaths. I cannot explain how I have done this, how often, how intensely, or that every breath from my body was all about this for my entire life.....that the trillions of cells in my body lived for this and only this......as far as the first part. And once I saw the dismantling taking place, phase two was initiated by my own initiative, and no other, to create the new worlds for those beauties within the "human" species with both heart and soul. I did that too. And only in 2016/2017, did I hear from others, that what I was creating was being seen and reported by many others, and I stopped. I stopped because it was already coming in. We, the hearts and souls of Humanity are going Home.

My New Life July 2018

Helllllloooooooo People !

Its been a while, a lot of "life" happening too often, too fast and all has been too much in general, but I am here posting because some of my friends want to know what is happening, where I am living, how, pics of the new place and what I'm doing. Here now, I will tell as much as I can.....so get ready, get a large coffee or tea because I think this will be a long one and with lots of pics. I always like to be succinct but once I get to talking and no one is stopping me, I tend to get into more details, but some have asked for details......so here goes.
In fact I think I will make my self a cup of tea too....be right back....

Tea is on.....and while I wait a bit, I will say a very Happy Helllooooo to all of my friends who have asked about me and what is happening. And helloooo to all who bother to read my quirky little "Energetics" blog of an empath, I welcome and thank you for being here and even remotely interested.

I will start with a caveat that I can't tell all of my experiences as I don't want to start a war with something that would make a war out of total megalomaniac afflictions, so I use prudence, the point being to keep as much peace in my world. But I will say that nothing can be exaggerated enough to describe this....... ummm......ahem....."learning curve" shall we say? You cannot possibly know of what I speak unless you lived it. Nothing else compares.

Back with tea and a huge sigh.....how to begin......
well I am here in a new home, my new home I can say as I co-own this place with John.....John ! people! how can I even begin to express how a lethargic sloth of 15 years, stepped up and out once I left his house? Made miracles happen a year later? He didn't even know he had it in him.
When we parted I thought I'd never see him again and he thought the same. It was an amicable parting since I had to leave due to the planes noise driving me insane all day every day.
He thought he'd just go into his usual ways, being alone and be fine. I thought I'd go into a new venture with others to do house buying/flipping and have a creative life and career. Both of us were more than totally, even dimensionally off the mark. Goes to show what you focus on does not materialize, but that other things your mind and brain could NEVER conjure can come to slap you upside the head so hard, your entire sense of what is real and what is not is fully on the table with equal measure.
Turns out John was human after all and the other I thought was, wasn't. We both had our worlds flipped upside down for different reasons, and then both realizing we work better together.....at least as domestic mates we do. There is so much to tell about this story that it has become a book, a literal book. My friends throughout the years have always told me I need to write a book, albeit about different things, so what to write? when I hate writing??.....well, this last experience has made me want to write. I actually want to write the book about all this and I even have a title already.

I have taken long before writing this post because I didn't want to speak too soon.....you know, murphy and all his gang......so I kept quiet. But at this point, should I die now, I could now say I finally know what it feels like when things go right....when things work out, when they go smoothly, as they should without hitches, glitches, interference, etc etc.
I know what it feels like now to take a safe deep breath, never had before, ever. I know what it feels like to own something and have a blank canvas to play with, to get creative with and to have at least one person who enjoys my creativity as his own quality of life. I know what it feels like now, to have quiet, and peace, and I mean quiet that is all the time like I like it, not sporadic or broken up with sounds of people or their machines, but all day every day quiet, the predictable kind.... like......wow......its still quiet. I check about a dozen times every day, looking out the windows front and back to see if it is real, if I am still here in the middle of 5 acres of green grass surrounded by dozens and dozens of fully mature trees, and woods and the deer who live in them, and yes, I am still in the middle of this healing green and it is still quiet, after 2 months. I've never experienced such a thing. Quiet and silence and peace were literally moments in my previous 59 years, and they were too precious and too few. Now, the quiet is here all the time, the main presence and foundation of this place, along with the green beautiful.

The House:
Once John said there was a store opening in Gainesville, I told him to take it, he began the process and he pounded on that like a bull. This fragile, negligent, lethargic, workhorse, turned into the Taurus bull of his nature and got things done. What!?
I was not able to do anything. He had alot to do on his own and I did not for one second believe he would do it all, I mean this is the guy who breaks down in frustration with red lights in traffic, who will put off mowing a small lawn until he gets a city notification. In the 15 years of living with him, it took countless directives to get him to mow his tiny lawn.
What he had to do now was titan-ish for even the most efficient person. He had to secure his job first, get his truck in driving condition which was delayed by 2 weeks!, put his own house on the market for sale, pack and store his things somehow, search and find a house in Gainesville, come to Tennessee to help me finish packing my things and store them, both of us drive to Gainesville in time to close on some house neither of us had time to search for, move us in, then start his new job.....ALL IN 3 WEEKS TIME. Hellooooo?? can anyone conceive of that amount of work? especially for someone like John!!!!!!!!! To top this all off, he had to accomplish all of this while still working full time. I went into despondency because I knew he would never get it done and my chances of getting out of TN and into my own safe and clean space was nil.
But the Taurus Bull and something else came to life. (I get chills). John himself said something took over him and he did everything he could methodically and did not stop. He encountered delay after delay, no help from anyone, his car in the shop for 2 weeks, and endless sabotage every step and yet he did what even would shame heroes to accomplish. Something very intense and strong took him through this, knew the importance of this for saving my life and his own......and it was all done. I am still IN AWE.

What happened was, once he said he would apply for the Gainesville position, and once he said he got it, then the next thing is finding a place to live right? Do we stay in a hotel first so we have time to search? Does he do this alone and then find one and then come get me in TN? If so then it gets expensive for hotel and he knows no one else he could bunk with for that time. How to do this?? I got online to get an idea of houses. I didn't know what to do, how one goes about such things as finding a house. I've always rented or lived with someone else....how do people find houses? I've heard nightmare stories about how long it takes and how many houses one sees to find the right one, location wise, size wise, price wise, etc etc......one does not simply choose a house from a picture and land there.
I got online feeling lame, looking at locations near his job knowing it had to be close because he hates the commute and I wanted him to be free of that one thing that torments him, was the drive to work and back.....so I looked and saw pictures. I found something that was cheaper than what he had his house on the market for and sent him the link to see. He said it was a nice size but was not interested. I looked further and found nothing that had requirements that I needed which were more than his. I needed to be away from traffic and noise, from men and machines. I wanted space to plant gardens and trees. He couldn't care less he's never home. The house had to have at least 3 bedrooms, one for each of us and a quest room, and had to be move in condition. No fixer uppers like his last. He wanted a 2nd bathroom and a window over the kitchen sink. The location, price, etc. We each had a wish list we didn't even tell each other about, I'll get to that later. ( I realize I didn't get into this, but if any are interested I will post another one about this fun bit). But the basics were proximity to job, away from street and traffic and people, space inside and 3 bedrooms.

I got online again, searching neighborhoods driving time to his job etc, and found a house that wasn't there before, similar to the first but this one was cheaper and had blue shudders on the windows and I sent it to John. He wasn't impressed. I gave him the name and number of the broker and asked him to at least speak with her and possibly line up other homes to see, make a connection there and start the process, please! They do that don't they? I listed the pros of the house to try to find out why he was resistant, to no avail. He wasn't impressed at all with that house. Upon deeper questioning which always pushes his annoyed button he had a "thing" against modular homes. I said what's the problem when most homes out here are modular? We both need to make an immediate departure, we don't have time. This prolonged things. Whenever we spoke which was about once a week, ( I know, but he's not one to have conversation, though he tolerates mine more now).....I tried to find out what he wanted from a home and what he was doing to find one? Nothing. He looked online once, on his terrible laptop which basically was 10 years old and froze every 30 seconds, and found one house with 2 pictures total, both of the outside and the house was not only right next to houses on all sides, but the street was 10 feet away. NOT. So he didn't know how to go about this either.

What he finally decided, without telling me was to do a quick sale on his house, and finally called that broker in Gainesville to at least get ideas, and possibly see that one house with the blue shudders and take it from there. I was so helpless! I couldn't do what I usually do to help him, he was overwhelmed with so much to do and had never organized himself before. I went into despair.
We had 2 weeks now.
What I didn't know was that he had called that broker and put a deposit on that house. Without seeing it, he just wanted a location to land and he went and did it. I was floored? flabbergasted? shocked? appalled? impressed? On one hand I didn't care where we landed as long as I was out of that house I was in and in another of my own, and on the other I didn't want to experience any more things going wrong, or not working or anything that needed fixing etc. I was far too sick and weak and traumatized from my past year and years before that, and my body systems were failing. I needed a safe haven. He, needed to just make sure he got to work on s specific day otherwise they'd fire him if he failed to show up. Well how does he do all of this while still working full time ??!?!?!?!? I found out the name of his supervisor at work and explained that he cannot be working right now, he has a transfer to work on, a house to sell, and things to pack, a house to buy and he has to fly to TN to pack and move another household, then get to Gainesville, close on a house we havn't got yet......and HE CANNOT BE WORKING RIGHT NOW, WHY ISN'T HIS APPLICATION FOR VACATION NOT APPROVED !!!! I also had this conversation with John as calmly as I could to speak with his bosses to explain all this as he is never one to speak up and out, and the next day he called me to tell me his last work day was Sunday, 3 days away and now he has an extension of another week or so to make all this happen.

So......we moved into a house in a city we'd never been to, and which was only the 2nd picture I saw online that was worth considering. He put a deposit on it, without seeing it and before it was inspected.........what could go wrong? !!

Actually in this case NOTHING. All went smoothly, and 2 months later as it turns out, what seemed folly based on lack of experience, lack of time, lack of organization, desperation and jumping without looking, worked out, because this house is revealing its charms slowly, and how unbelievably perfect some things are.

I'm getting too much into this one aspect, but I wanted to give you an idea of the stress on top of trauma for me this has been, and for him stress.

However now I will show pictures of the house. These are from the pics online.
We called it the house with the blue shudders. I'm not crazy about this blue, but others are, but I will paint the shudders a nice turquoise blue when things cool down.

My favorite part of this house was that the kitchen was already white and the utility room which I've never had is inside the house as our last were outside on back porch. But there is so much space here. Our last house had only one narrow 7" drawer in kitchen. I was very clever in keeping things organized and neat. Here we have lots of space. I even want an island in the middle as it seems so bare. :D:D:D

This is the back of the house. That carport which I thought such an ugly structure though useful to keep my car under, is turning out to be my favorite hangout. You'll see why. I don't understand though why they didn't put shudders on the back and have such ugly stairs.....we'll have to fix that.

All is not done, but is livable and very cozy now.
The rains and thunderstorms.....well they're taking getting used to because I've never seen so many storms like this, daily, not even in South Florida all these past years.....its a bit scary, but then everything makes me jumpy. The storms batter the windows directly, never experienced that kind of noise and only panes of glass separating me from that violent storm? scary indeed! John needs to put up awnings on the windows and especially the sliding doors, the sun is brutal, not very good to sit out there for long. And I have developed sensitivity (cause I don't have enough) and experience real heat exhaustion, learned the hard way.

So now with my things in, I have some pictures. This is before we planted Italian Cypress, topiary and urns with flowers....... 

....and after........

This is all the landscaping I want to do for this year, I want to see how things go.

On the side of the house I planted Sky Pencil Holly, they're small but will grow. Also the yellow Thryalis which I love because they are fragrant and can take lots of sun and heat.

 I had two heavy cement urns I planted with palm to mark the halfway point of the driveway. It is an elegant hello.
 


 Inside......

Such a nice corner to do laundry and this has a closet to the left which we love having. We have closets here, did I mention that? Some walk ins! The previous house had only one, aside from tiny bedroom ones.

 I don't like seeing store containers, labels etc, so I remove everything and put them in glass containers with disolvable labels. So much cleaner and tranquil.

My room.

 View from window......

 Guest room.

Johns' room, god bless him....this will get the work it needs very shortly.

My bathroom with a Roman Tub.....I need baths as it turns out. Seems the salts and minerals make me feel renewed like nothing else does. It also removes 90% - 100% of my pains and helps me to sleep, so I love taking them. I will have to get this working soon. Needs lots of water, but idiot genius' installed a kitchen faucet and so it trickles and one cannot fill a tub this way. We have to fill a 5 gallon bucket from the other bathroom on the other side of the house and trek it to this tub when I need to take a bath. We're working on it....when john "gets around" to changing the faucet to a high volume one, it may work as it should. Plumber was here said its a job he wouldn't like. sigh.
But the light is so bright in all the rooms, and I can have plants inside the house now, not just outside.
This is how the bathroom was.........

The door to the closet inside the bathroom....I hung a crochet curtain panel I love.....

Needs organizing but I'm working on it.

Well, thats the house and how we live now.....all in the middle of 5 acres of grass and trees which is especially beautiful.

We do however have to mow those lawns and these people out here in country have some serious equipment. John had to buy a rider mower, but it turns out he likes it :D:D:......a new toy, he rides around. Even I have to do some because no way he can do it all himself. Takes two days if we really put our minds to it, but so far we haven't been able to. We either run out of gas, its too hot, or it rains, or we're too tired......its alot of grass. If we stay here, I will have to see about planting more trees.....which we started......I planted two Weeping Willows which need around 50 feet of space which we have, and I adore how they blow in the wind. We also planted a Leyland Cypress. They have yet to fill out....will take years, but are supposed to be among the fast growing trees.
I also planted Arborvitae by each post by the carport which is my new hangout.....they should fill out and look beautiful.....My new favorite in the plant kingdoms are the evergreens.....love them!!

And this is where I play the most, under the carport. We got two potting benches since we had to leave the one we built together at the other house, sadly, I loved it. But moving on....I have these two, where I can keep my things and they are covered mostly. See the third Italian Cypress here? the perfect spot for it on the backside of the house right next to the stairs and I can see it and talk to it every time I come out.....they do give good company you know,,,,they are just a bit stoic.

Bare stairs, with no place to sit in shade, very hot and no gardens.......

We planted our beloved herbs close to the house, but soon realized they were frying and burning in the relentless all day sun with no shade....so we had to add ugly shadecloth, now they are staying green. See Mr. Cypress? I love him there......

This carport has turned out to be very useful! I am planting a Wisteria at the corner, to grow over it.....waiting on john's help to create supports for it though.

 This is the all day shade part. I planted boxes of mixed salad greens that have sprouted beautifully. Thats another thing going right....seeds are sprouting and growing. Must be the well water!

And the very small aborvitae at both ends. Can't wait till they grow and fill out for more evergreen beauty.

And I know there were more details than some cared for, but some of my friends asked for those so there they are. Saves me repeating the story also......which hasn't really been told, is a book forthcoming, but how I am, where I'm living, and how its going is here. Things are finally going right....and thats an entirely new sensation for me. I keep expecting something to glitch, but not yet....quite the opposite....when we work on something it gets fixed. When we're looking for something in the stores like the Cypress, we find them, when we speak of something, it shows up.....its "wow" all the time now.

I guess because.........
