SERIOUS MOVES

The Gypsy Soul Goal is to see ALL the mainland 48 States.

Today was a day of serious moves.

Holland and I met David for breakfast; these 2 are my fav fella's, and it was important that they meet. Plus, now that Holland and I have fixed our mindset on moving out of Washington, this get-together was imperative - things tend to move once a house is listed and things put on hold kinda slip away and never get done.

David and I have scheduled breakfast get-togethers since 2019. I didn't want to leave Longview … or Washington without saying good-bye face-to-face (we've known each other since 1966). The breakfast meet was important.

So, I was up bright and early; David did not have to call me to get me out of bed :-)

Viewing these pics while posting this post, I do not think I'll wear this blouse again I like the color, but the hang of the blouse is not at all flattering.

Face color …

'Chalk' on browline; 'Terra Cotta' on eyelid; 'Tango' inner eye;  & 'Soft Brown' for liner; 'Auburn' Brow Gel; 'Glam Soft Brown' Mascara; 'Coral Ember' Gel Blush 7 'Coral Crave' Lipgloss.

Face in place.

Blouse will NOT stay in my clothes cache; it looks like a maternity top.

Breakfast was a good happening - the guys hit it off, laughter rang 'rnd our table, and even though I was the butt of a man joke (man's long suffering of a woman's quick temper) … it didn't dampen my love for these two (1) I am an unapologetic brat (2) I know I am unconditionally loved by these two fellas ;-)

Holland and David discussing fishing and gun ownership.

When we got back home, Shay and I texted back and forth trying to reach a compromise concerning the listing of this house: she wants to sell low - I want to sell higher; the house is worth more than she's wanting to list it for, and I'm holding out for a more reasonably fair price. I am concerned for our finances, not the buyer's. Like I said, this house is worth what we are asking, and if the buyers can't do that, then the house isn't for them. We are trusting Elohim to bring in a reasonable and fair bid.

Bob and I put the roof on (the previous owner refused to do that), we laid new flooring (wood and stone), and remodeled the entire kitchen (with all new appliances), repaired 2 skylights, put in a new washer and dryer, put in a fireplace, replaced outdated light fixture in the living-room and spare bathroom, and put in new showerheads in both baths in the the Fall of 2017. In the Spring of 2018, Bob built me 14 boxes so I'd have a full-size garden area; and set up rain barrels for my garden area (Kerry has the barrels, but the drain spouts are still set up for new ones): that garden area is what ultimately led to Bob's death (this is recorded in my Fall & Winter 2018 posts). In the Spring of 2019, I had the Heat Pump thermostat replaced, repainted the entire exterior of the house, replaced a toilet, and put 16 canned LED lights throughout the house so I'd never have to replace a single light bulbs as long as I lived (they will last 30 years). The Summer of 2022, I had the ducts vacuumed. Every year I have a man come to wash the windows, clean the gutters, and check the roof status (every 6 months); and I repainted the front porch stairs myself; to keep them looking nice. And since we were married in January this year, Holland has put a water filter on the master shower, and just finished replacing the master bath sink/faucet.

This house is not an old, rundown house!

Since the waning of 2018 I have spent very little time in this house: everything is practically still brand new! I finally got the last 2017 moving box unpacked in 2022. I only really started living in this house when I married Holland; before then, I was gone nearly 24 hours a day.

This house is worth what we are asking.

An honest buyer will understand that.

Real Estate estimates are based on square footage; homes are bought on eye appeal, comfort, and personal use. This house has a lot to offer the right buyer.

People buy in mobile home parks for a variety of reasons, but this is a very nice mobile home park … and I have a very nice home. I do not think asking a fair return for the money spent, is asking too much: mobile home, or not.

Prayers concerning the selling of this house are appreciated; THIS YEAR'S QUOTE IS CONSIDERABLY LESS THAN LAST YEAR'S QUOTE.

The market has been suffering for decades … I still believe a fair deal is possible when dealing with fair people in a fair situation; a fair buyer is out there - we believe that.

I believe Elohim is able to bring in a reasonable sale; He has never once let me down. Ever.

When the texting ended, I got busy stuffing the Highlander with plants and yarns that will divided between the Sleuth Sisters at tomorrow's afternoon gathering. I am glad this stuff is going to good homes - it would bother me to throw this stuff in the trash can.

God willing, I will get the open containers from here to there tomorrow, without tipping the boxes and crushing them.

Linda's Text.

Becky's Texts.

Flowering geranium plants (in terra cotta pots inside bins), daffodil/tulip containers, and rose bushes … as well as boxes of yarn, stacked in the Highlander - going to new homes, in Graysriver.

And, praise Elohim, the outside temperature was very 'Springy' this afternoon :-)

WHOO-HOO! A whopping 58-degrees around 5 PM!

It's still 50-degrees here, at 7:47 PM :-)

I am SO ready for some sunny weather!

WHERE I STAND GOING INTO 2021

The war on The People is picking up speed.

The plan may have changed for The People … but the goal stays the same.

The devil’s political tools are busily at work; but so is Elohei: they cannot stop His Plan or a Goal touchdown – despite the devilish behavior on earth’s goal lines.

So, just so everyone reading this post is clear on where I stand ... let me spell it out for you (just in case you weren't already clear).

I am first and foremost a Christian - my inner circle is already small.

Only Yeshua is perfect – the rest of us are in a lifelong process of processing.

CE. Mingle with people …. But surround yourself with a core group of people who are true friends (Yeshua’s main “3” were Peter, James & John – Matthew 17:1/Luke 5:1-11/Mark 5:37).

Even Yeshua took time apart from peopling. Solitude is a necessity, at times (Matthew 14:1-13; Mark 6:30-32; Luke 4:1-2/5:16/6:12-13/14 thru 15/22:39-44).

Secondly, I am glad to be an American - I was born and raised in America. But my Home is beyond the clouds. The politics of America only affect me so far as my living on Earth goes: I am not bound by the policies forged in DC.

Being a Christian does not make me immune to intentional pain - the obama cartel is intent on inflicting pain on Americans ... specifically on Christian Americans. I have family members who have been hoodwinked by the obama cartel: I rarely visit their FB Pages because most of their posts are poisoned twaddle that take gleeful aim directly at me - it is arrogantly childish, and ignorantly ridiculous.

The inclination to "forgive 70 x 7" is beginning to wear thin; give me strength, Yeshua.

I don't know exactly where my friends stand in their political leanings ... and I really don't care, UNTIL I'm viciously slapped in the face with it. Everyone pretty much knows how I lean - I haven't kept my feelings secret: I will ALWAYS fall on the side of Love, Life, Freedom, and the Pursuit of Happiness. We may disagree on what each of those points mean, personally, but they do not need to divide us. Bob and I disagreed on just about every issue; and were still able to maintain a healthy and happy marriage for 44 years.

It IS possible to disagree and still love one another.

The obamanites do not love – in any sense of the word: they are only about creation chaos and destruction.

barak and michael's 3rd coup was cemented in DC a few days ago. Elohim has spoken: I will not argue His decree. America will suffer greatly ... and those who support this unholy coup will reap what they have sown/chosen. It will be sad to watch. It will be tortuous for me to know my family and friends will suffer harshly - but that is what they have chosen. I can only stand by helplessly, and watch them self-destruct.

I am sure, that over the coming months, I will lose more family and friends: it is inevitable, as people are people ... and will position themselves where they feel they will feel safer.

I will still be true to ME.

And I am comfortable with a small circle of people who genuinely love and care for me; if it comes down to the wire - I am very comfortable being a solo lobo.

I am not going to argue with anyone over the shameful thing that has taken place in DC with the obamanite power grab - either on FB, or in my private space in the real world.

If people are offended, I will miss you; if you want to stay, you are welcome. But, I will not fight with you about the coup. Other than how politics directly affect ME, personally, I really don't care anymore.

America, as I knew it for most of my life, has been gone since 2009. I'm just living my life - for me - as best I can, given the shitshow freakish nightmare being played out on the global scene every hour on the hour.

There was 1 chance left to rein the insanity in and bring some reality back into focus, and that has been forcibly taken away by political thugs with gangster mentality.

I'm done.

I don't care anymore; there is nothing of this world that holds me, now that Bob is in Heaven.

I am 64 years old - I just want to live my remaining years in peace.

And I intend to have that peace by whatever means I need to employ.
