Trapped & Overwhelmed

Workers are still working all over the house, it's been like this for over two weeks, and I am soooo stressed out.

Banging, pounding, sanding, Kona barking, getting up at 6:00 a.m. everyday, not getting enough sleep, not able to write, not able to use the pool, not even able to go out my backdoor (as they are refinished the deck)....

And the more they work, the more they find that need fixing.

The price has already doubled from the original guesstimate.

Can't wait to get these guys done and out of here, so I can get back to normal.

Signs, signs everywhere there's signs...

I've been taking an online class called "Spiritual Mentorship" taught by a medium, who says we can all become a "medium" and connect with the spirit afterlife --- and OK, before any of you who don't believe, don't stop reading this yet...

So the class has a lot of mediation which I'm not great at, sometimes my mind wonders too much, other times I get so relaxed I fall asleep, but other times it works and feels good....

The teacher says if you want to know if your loved one in the afterlife is still with you to (her words) "send out a voicemail" i.e. ask for a sign --- don't expect it immediately, but it will come....

So anyway, most of my readers know that Bob and I had a song, which was "our song" by a group called Modern English and the song was called "I'll Stop The World And Melt With You". It's an 1980's song, not really popular, but it struck a cord with us, and it was always "our song", in fact I've posted a video of us dancing to it......

Anyway, so I go to the Dairy Inn which is an Ice Cream stand about four blocks away and they have "doggie sundaes" which is a cup of vanilla soft serve ice cream with milk bone treats in it. And I do go there often, so Kona can get a treat and they also have great sandwiches, so she gets her treat and I get my supper... and the other day their sign was this:

The lyrics in our song are "I'll stop the world and melt with you."  And I know this says "Stop the world and melt with us" but....

Four blocks away from home. Wow.
Certainly not a weird coincidence. I did ask the cashier (they all know us -- Kona and me) who put that sign up? and the cashier said "what sign?" and I pointed to it and he said he had no clue, it was just there one day......

And I do believe it's a sign that Bob is still with me...

Happy Birthday to my Best Girl

Sleeping Beauty
Kona's turns 8 years old! Can't believe I've had her for four years.

Happy Birthday, Sleepy-head! Guess you deserve a doggie sundae tonight!
