JO: My shoulder is doing well, with a twinge now and then. This week I saw my massage therapist. and I have a full range of motion and strength. The straw bale walls behind me in the zoom were staked in by volunteers kids, and it would have been hard to take the stakes out and redo, so the wall is bumpy!
Nambudripad allergy elimination treatment NAET Method.Nambudripod Elimination Diet, avoid the item tested for 24 hours. So I will be eating white rice and green tea. Kinesiology helps locate the acupressure points that help. Tomorrow I have an eye appt, but driver canceled. I do a lot of things outside, heavy snow, and snow shoes out to the pump for the hot water for the chickens.
My Dog has no problem at all! 40 miles per hour. Awareness as what my animals look at…things I might have missed otherwise. this coming spring the 50th anniversary (Alterntives to violence conferences with people from all over the world. Green Haven Prison, where things originally started 50 years ago. My to-do list is full! sometimes I bury my nose in a book. I got a new book in the mail. Robert Kennedy Jr. Coverup book. ( I was reacting to many different chemicals. Artificial fragrances were very hard for me to handle. They affect brain function and affect abilities…alters my speech.. Get me to fresh air. Physical coordination comes down and I will eventually become unconscious. Before this was diagnosed Dr’s didn’t know what was going on. Multiple chemical sensitivity. Nanburtapal elimination diet. Accupuncture & Kenesiology when determined what the substance is. Hold the vile and check pressure points and see where you react. then can use acupuncture those points. Using needles and rest for 20 minutes in a dark room. then avoid that substance for 25 hours.
SOOZ, I’m alive, healthy! I heard an OU professor talk about Line 5. I take 5HTP and collagen to help with sleep. Yoga tomorrow morning. I want to train myself to imagine positive beautiful things. I think we all could do this. I think that helps for me. I am so grateful for my life, universal soul. In Stephen Bruhners book about Earth Grief he connected with the Earth Soul and it was awesome. We are called by the spirit, they experience this welcoming of this universal soul. I’m exploring Natural Organic Reduction which is an alternative burial method that turns the human body into the soil. 2 women from the Lansing area are trying to bring it into Michigan law. I’m trying to be ready for death so my son doesn’t have all this stuff. While I can still can do what I can. I had an “A fib” diagnosis in the spring. I do lung exercises. So far my inflammation is very low. I Eat well and keep my weight up. Life here is good, and I”m ok!
Robin: There’s something that comes out of the catholic tradition: 5 wishes such as Music at the funeral and things you want and don’t want. Ill send you information by email on that.
In this group I’m the youngest one. I enjoy being with older people who are usually women. In the early days, at 25 years old, with white skirts, and being with experienced nurses. How does anyone get to this place, so far away from my experience?! I just got a 2nd cataract surgery. and today I’m ok to drive. I went to the Audiologist, maybe needing hearing aids. I’m trying to make an appointment…and can’t get in until 6 months from now! I’m not in a big hurry to get hearing aids. So there’s that.
I’m writing with Rae online ~ a creative writing person I love. She wandered into my farm one day…..and she lead creative writing groups, starting in my living room. She lives in Iowa, where the Maharishi center is. I write snippits of my life in the writing.
I’m getting more discipline. I didn’t have responsibilities by as a child in my family. Right now with my own health so primary. Every day is clear for what I do for my health all day long. Doing walks, yoga, food, writing! I appreciate seeing all of your “playing” , as we come as we are. Breathing, sharing, Jo: A woman went to the audiologist. He said I needed a Heron Egg! One of the aids came into an office going into a cabinet. I need to get a bag of weed. I’m here to get batteries.! I’ve had cataract surgery on each eyes. but my closeup vision in right is more blurry.

Jack. A critique of RFK Jr. on COVID-19. An article by Factcheck.org: https://www.factcheck.org/2023/08/scicheck-rfk-jr-s-covid-19-deceptions/
I had the flu…couldn’t get out of bed, or eat. Couldn’t eat crackers. Its bad this year, so avoid it if you can.
I’m looking into starting a homestead. I read this great book. “Building a better world in your backyard” (instead of being angry at the bad guys) Paul Wheaton, written from blogs. Sepp Holzer’s Permaculture. Financial literacy for Farmers course from Nichols college, Permaculture design course through Oregon state university. I’m looking for land within 1 hr of Boston where my girlfriend lives and near my parents.
I’m doing Research on buying property. Collective resources commons has plaid for building homestead aspects like chicken coops and houses. Universal building. not bplans North Dakota University . not to current code, however.
Jo suggests.: build a small building while building the house. Looking close to home so I can be near where my parents need to be. My girlfriend lives in Boston. Nupur. Mombai. Indian girlfriend. Degree in robots engineering. (Robin: I remember taking a permaculture class in North Carolina. 4 acre land, tipi, house, swales, We were all working and the teacher was singing.) Jack: I’m teaching in a bi-lingual immersion preschool. We sing and dance and lots of art! Robin. My son in law runs an outdoor education camp in Vermont. He wants to step back from the program. Outdoor educational program. Crows Path. Jack: I will reach out to some friends.
Deanne: I’m in and out of hopeless and new things. So much to do on lists to process the past, live in the present and prepare for the future. Then wonderful things and connections and support happens. Cason. Lindsay and father Alan…so many wonderful people and projects to connect to. And I have the cats as company.
I am seeking to keep balance between all these things. I could use more movement. I appreciate that I could go in the deep-snow reed field and negotiate it ! Yay! Gratitude. I’m feeling good. And will check in on the lyme disease again in a few months.
We had a lovely time together in our zoom. Ah.
