SD

 I fell asleep until just now. I woke up dizzy and a big red, hard spot on my face, in fact, two red hard spots on my face. I wonder if it is the Keflex? How are you? I need to close my eyes, I am so dizzy.

ICU

 

I wish a loved one were not in that environment. I wish he were safe with me.

 How are you? I am still so tired, but I wanted to check in with you. I think I will rest a bit more and then get back to work. Have a good day. Wish you were here.

Hugs.

H&R

 Hi, I am busting my brain trying to think of ideas. I am printing up evidence and going to have a standard letter of help to go out and see what can be done. I am waiting to see about my other option tomorrow. I just need the money, unless they just plain say no. I have to get all "my ducks in a row." I need to get on the Internet and look for help. I cannot just sit and wait on each one at a time. I am kind of understanding what kind of picture they are painting of you. I really think that we are going to need to do a hit and run. You come to a designated spot and I take you. You come out at 5 pm, or so, head to the garage as if going to where someone is waiting to pick you up, but you veer off to the place where I am sitting and you get in and we go.  By-pass all the paperwork and crap and just do it & use the money for a nice dinner and down pmt on a Mercedes van!

Sacred Sounds

 


Holy Candles | Candles, Catholic, Candlelight


Dedicated Love-


I love the hollow sound and gentle squeak of the wooden floor as I ascend the few steps to light candles of hope and prayer. It is a lonely sound, but I find comfort in the old familiarity; it is stark yet embracing.


My soul is weary, but holds a tender memory of your soft touch on my welcoming hand. It revives me as nothing else could.

Behind me, I hear the rhythmic sound of the tandem rosary chanting. The pious seek redemption, health, lost love. It never comes, yet devotees ardently and fervently return day, after day, to repeat their pleas to the saint who listens the most attentively and carries the least judgmental look in their loving, but disappointed eyes.

We are small, but our hearts have a grand capacity for love. I can't imagine my heart being able to hold all the love I have for you. The vast sky even seems inadequate to take on the overflow. I look up and see the breathless enchantment you leave behind and I know I will never be alone, for you are the beauty in every place my eyes find to rest....and my dedicated prayer to you, at last is answered.

Haviva-

 You give me something lovely to smile about. How did I get so lucky? 

You are lovely, smart, and funny

and you made my life worth living.

Your sweetness is the breath of my soul

and the delight of my day.

Never leave me alone; 

you are joy.

 How are you doing? Keeping up your spirits? Go outside and sit in the sun, or if you have a pool, go swim. If you can ever see a neighbor, confide in them and see if they can give you a ride to the PD. They aren't against you are they? They will not do anything, for some reason. That hideous man has done something to keep them away. They were nice before, but now I don't know after help was removed. They need to listen and protect. That one I spoke with knew she is abusive. I still send them things, so some are all caught up, esp the top one. I don't know where they stand. They may have been told you are nuts; that's what MP did to me. They are assholes, do not even consider trusting them. I mean MP and the gang.

MAD

 Are you gone?

It feels like you are gone.

Things are all coming to a head very quickly.

Too much to do all at once.

It would just be better to run away. Be cause I don't know what will work. I miss you so much. Have me come and get you. Please? I am trying to work things out, but something else always pops up complicating things.  Please help me help you. I am trying with all my might.  I love you and want you safe. Please, I love you and want you to be free. We need to get real. I am willing to get you, just tell me how, when, where. We could skip the legal mess and join together and no one could touch us ever again. We could have an enjoyable life. I want you to have fun and be alive. I want nothing from you. I would sign papers. Just let us stop this madness.

UGH

 It is going to be expensive. :-( 

They will do it, but.....it would be like getting a loan for a car.

(A cheap car, but a car.)  My credit is not good. Maybe I can sell something. My cemetery plot(s) Painting.....?

Oh, this is rough. I cannot stand this any longer.

B

 They did not do more IV antibiotics at the clinic. They merely looked at me and that was it. I am hoping I can get someone to call me from the other at 2:30. I am tired, hungry and bummed. Fun, huh? I hope your day is better.

Better

 The antibiotic is kicking my butt, but at least my leg is starting to look better.

The Legend of the Blue Willow
Blue Willow plateLong ago, in the days when China was ruled by emperors, a Chinese manderin,Tso Ling, lived in the magnificent pagoda under the branches of the apple tree on the right of the bridge, over which droops the famous willow tree, and in front of which is seen the graceful lines of the fence. Tso Ling was the father of a beautiful girl, Kwang-se, who was the promised bride of an old but wealthy merchant. The girl, however, fell in love with Chang, her father's clerk. The lovers eloped across the sea to the cottage on the island. The mandarin pursued and caught the lovers and was about to have them killed when the gods transformed them into a pair of turtle doves. These are the doves seen gazing into each other's eyes at the top of the design on the plates.

Blue Willow China, in its present form originated in the United Kingdom (England) in 1790 by Thomas Turner at Caughley Pottery Works in Shropshire.

A lengthy and old Staffordshire poem of the pattern concludes with the verse:

"In the oft quoted plate two birds are perceived,
High in the heaven above:
These are the spirits of Chang and Kwang-se,
A twin pair of ever in love".

 I only do the best I can; if it is not liked I am so very sorry. I am writing every day. I am calling every day. I am getting crap thrown in my face in return (from them). How much can a person take? I don't know, but I don't give up.

eternity

 You will always be in my heart.  I will only remember the good times, because you made my life absolutely astonishingly lovely. If I never see you again, which it seems likely to be the case, thank you for giving me that experience and a dream to carry with me into eternity. Your face is all I want to go with me into forever.

 There are many programs on YouTube showing the upgraded Hotel del Coronado. It is one of my favorite places. It even has a ghost!

Now they are showing a walking tour. That would be great! It is a very new video since the people are wearing masks.

I get to live vicariously through others. It is a lot of fun! I have never stayed there, just had lunch. It is so beautiful!

The latest completed phase of the Hotel del Coronado’s ongoing renovations is its refurbished pool, the Sun Deck restaurant overlooking the pool, and completely overhauled guest rooms in the adjacent Cabanas building.

 Just turned on a movie called "Chef." Might be good. I may wash some dishes at the same time......or throw them away.

Who knows?

How are you?

 How did I get so blessed to know someone who made me feel like life was finally a place where I knew that happiness was truly possible? With the joy you have already given me that made time suspend in a lovely aura of caring and beauty, I know that seeing you and being near you could only be the complete fulfillment of a dream that kept me alive and wanting to care for you, love you and keep you forever safe.

 If he comes and sees me for awhile, he can decide if he wants to be my friend. All I know is that I want him to be happy. I guess that is already being a friend, isn't it?

I just get frustrated, because I write and write and get no response, or not the response I seek. It would be funny if the help I ended up getting was from the White House. I have so many thoughts of scenarios I think that could happen, or might happen, because of what has taken place. I start panicking and think he is in danger, so I come off frantic. (because I AM) If they are going to have all those elaborate plans to "get rid" of me as that smarmy janitor said, then I figure they would do more.

Are those people for real? They are so clownish and weird crime family acting it is nearly comical, except they do hurt people in the long run. They may be clumsy and cloddish, but they are destructive. He must really really be tired of their nastiness. I know I am! I just want to be around his sweetness again. I know the right people to blame; he is not one of them. (I say you and he interchangeably, all the same.) It angers me that they use him as their play toy for their amusement, or to cover their guilty asses. They want to implicate him in their evil deeds. "Super nice people." 

I  adore him to bits. Sorry if I come off like a spoiled brat at times, but when I think about how long it has been; it pisses me off.

 Have a marvelous day! 

I love and adore you!

 I barely know what to say any longer. I have been left in the dark so very long. 

I am feeling somewhat better. I hope it lasts.

I always wish I had a hug from my friend.

S

 I would certainly appreciate even just a small hint of when I might be able to see my friend. 

It gets more difficult as time goes by. 

I miss him terribly, but more importantly I want to keep him safe and happy.

That is all that matters to me.
