Only a few more days.........and then.......it's over...

 

I walk the plank......I pack every little thing that I have in the world (not counting my very large rented storage locker) in my humungous suitcase and I try to shove it into my trunk and then..............it's over...

 

You know what is very strange about all of this?  I am not even concerned......not really...I am like a solo pioneer....finding her way ........to the Vanderosa on  the prairies..

 

I think that is where I may head....home on the range...where there are no buffalo or even horses .......any longer...Oh ......while I have your attention.....I talked to my father today...who does live on the range...on the prairies and who I actually will be visiting...maybe....remember ...I am walking the plank and not certain yet if the plank leads to the prairies..yet.

 

(Little Joke inserted)

I called my parents this morning to tell them to keep a lookout for the Bird and her Echo...and then I asked Dad how he was....He is 83 and not feeling quite as spry since a mild heart attack last year..but...he still has his crazy sense of humor.....Here is the conversation...

 

Me..Hi Dad......How are you?  How are you feeling ?

 

Dad...............Well....not too bad I guess.....I guess that you could say that I am feeling better than an empty stall...

 

STALL??????   Better than an empty Stall???? My Father raised horses....I was raised on a sorta kinda little hobby farm....When he said that .........I howled with laughter....He said it so matter of fact...so resigned to the golden years which ain't very golden .(as he puts it)   So we both had a good laugh and that is why I think I must go home to spend time with my Dad while he is still able to laugh with me...

 

Since selling my home, I have felt the need for change more than I ever have in my life...After 20 years in this city, I feel restless...I want to begin a love affair with a new city...new culture...new environment..I am unsure  where my future may be.....I feel a restlessness in my spirit...That restlessness is pushing me towards change....but I know not where the change will lead me...I do know that I must move with it....

 

For now..I shall visit my sister......and then perhaps my brother and then perhaps...the prairie parents..

After Saturday...I walk the plank...

 

My plank is my Toyota Echo......I have wheels and will hit the road.

Wow, exciting and crazy at the same time. I am so ecited for you. If I could go anywhere it would be Boston and then Mexico as far as road trips. Wherever you go make sure you keep in touch with us and be safe and many many pics please.

Re: Orders from Heaven
I would rather be more excited with Europe but since I really want to hug and kiss and laugh with my parents, the prairies will do..lol   There is a kind of exciting feeling about a "don't know where you'll go" road trip....I do want to do that someday....Just drive........North. South, East. West........whatever...and see what the universe brings....That does sound sorta Thelma and Louiseish...lol..No cliffs though....I tremble when reaching heights...lol

Re: Orders from Heaven
Dad can be a pain in your royal heinness's butt...but he does have a crazy sense of humor...loves jokes and love s to be goofy...or maybe he just is........but he is also... hypertense ....not so much any longer........I love his humor the most....That is the part I will always cherish...........our laughs....and our early memories before he joined the Gestapo...(joke). He was a strict overbearing parent during my teens.

Re: Orders from Heaven
I am very pleased that you slept well....Do you actually remember your dreams?  I rarely dream or rather rarely remember them....but once in a while when I dream, it is vivid and I even see faces that I am certain I would recognize if I encountered them in my wake state....That is weird...when you see their face.....

You are a good Mom....very patient..Tell me about yesterday....in as many aspects as you want to...hi hi hi...no fun at all yesterday?

Re: Orders from Heaven
Speaking of dreams.. I had a terrible nightmare tonight.. though I don't know what it means.. I need to start my praying again..

Here it goes:

                 I was lying in the middle of my and it was dark and suddenly I see someone opening the door and slowly with his head down coming in.. I was so shocked that I was looking straight and he saw that I have seen him so he quickly came near me and pressed my left hand tightly so I can let it go.. I tried to scream and call but nobody could hear me and it was horrible.. so in my dream I started saying some arabic which said God Is One.. . and kept on repeating and I woke up.. I was so aftraid birdie.. my wrist was still hurting as if it really happened.. I slept like 2 in the morning cause Far came home late from work and then started to watch the game for the rest of the night.. So I woke up like 4 again with this terrible nightmare..

How about you hon? Are you feeling okay today?

robot2 on
Re: Orders from Heaven
That is scarey....Honey.........to me...it means this.......

 

You feel like you have lost  control of your own life..People are invading your comfort, your space and all you can do is allow it......but it hurts......and the worst part is that you feel you are unable to stop it... Even when you went back to sleep.the invasion of people (some known, some strangers) continued..

Loss of control...whether physically or emotionally is very traumatic honey and you know ............deep in your soul...........that God is your salvation..

 

I am okay........I have decided to be happy solo.....and every thing else will be a blessing.

Go with God, Birdie, for wherever you are, with him it will be home.  Drive, think, sing, play and most of all, laugh and treasure those who show you love. 

 

I love you and wish you all the best...but you'd better not forget us...do you have a laptop?

Re: Orders from Heaven

Re: Orders from Heaven
You did...

Somehow the word spinning made me smile...

Takes me back to a very smiley time..

Palsy....be in the moment and if the moment is time to rest.....you must...

It is so very difficult to do.....I am certain...but it is the only way to get through .........busy times.

thinking of you with love my dear friend.

wish I could help.
