Happy Halloween ME-COSTCO gas

WHEW!! Angelique then Wermaryl @ Trans America Life-PAID CITY

36 minutes to get paperwork re surrender and taxes.  800-851-9777.  ext: 4820982. 

I don't enjoy talking.  I am loving my unicorns glasses case I'm using for my phone.  shiny pink 4 rhinestones.  lavender lining.  

Walter is still a butt.  I told him I don't enjoy talking and he stupidly tells me I'm talking.  I don't like counseling his stupidity but I do it.  I don't like everything I still have to do.  I'm feeling VERY frustrated.  he did get me pasta meatballs.  

so I went to college Safeway looking for 3/$5 Friday beef spring rolls.  GONE.  I bought 1 pistachio pint ice cream 2/$5 and $60 cash.  scooted over to CVS bought multi 2 for 1.  not much on shelves. 

home Safeway also out of spring rolls I bought 5 cans Progresso soups for 2 and $60 cash. pistachio so good.  

I misplaced my medicare card.  I put my CDL in my wallet.  I searched the front of the car for an hour and gave up and found it in the sharks backpack in the house laughing.

Envy not or else

Linda nurse envies me.  yeah right.  the story of my life.  I was meditating on the fact my parents hated happiness.  they punished me whenever I showed happiness.  in the tub I was meditating on the stupid insane arguments they promoted and how hard I've worked to change myself.  

Walter was in poop form.  took a whole pain pill and became a pill.  he blames me and I'm not having it.  he overdid causing himself pain and expects sympathy.  not from me.  I know he's smarter than he's acting.  I tried to share my bargains he said he's not interested in shopping.  I'm not interested in one up man ship.  OK.  

I'm capitalizing on rest and relaxation.  

8 pm medicare .gov has no specific details of the plans.  I need help.  good I signed up for hicap.

arbitrary parking

I'm relaxing into my life.  I've never had the opportunity.  the family filled my life with jobs demanding attention.  stealing my stuff.

I'm living my teens

I was always under siege so I never had a childhood.  I was persecuted by bullies after we left Hawaii at age 4.  I can remember landing in SF at night on the beautiful fairy lights of the airport runway.  then waking the next morning to a cold gray love-less world of disappointment.  

my body is physically vibrating as stored abuse leaves my tissues like rising dissipating steam.  

my pain and fear is dissolving.  I'm breathing, calming myself and owning my healing.

Energy deficit

serial killers lack the capacity of storing contact energy.  we evolved surviving in groups needing 'vitamin people'.  at some developmental point the compassion connections weren't made.  they kill to alleviate frustrations.  they're like rabid animals lacking self preservation instincts.  they know right from wrong and invite destruction.  

I read second half of LP Can't Wait to Get to Heaven.  perfect.  Elner Shimfissle is amazing.

binned overripe fruit.  beautiful day.  60 o's.  perfect for me.  

and I have CSC internet in the parking lot.  WOW someone opened at 8.  99.999% late.  I left all extra fruit.

Library heaven is my favorite reading and listening to Louise.  The Inflammation Spectrum Dr Will Cole and PG Wodehouse on Gutenberg.org.

I reversed direction in the copy room.  more comfortable.

parking #1-57/52 & 61/64

I'm dedicated to having more fun.  not having prior experience it's difficult to know how, when, where and what.  determining what's fun for me was the toughest.  I was always punished for everything.  I had no idea of cause and effect.  I had no idea what I enjoyed.  I only knew the absence of punishment was heavenly.   

I was constantly waiting for the next hit.  major PTSD trying to minimize the pain.  chronic anxiety and stress.  I admired Tina Turner for having the courage to to admit the truth.  no one brags about being abused.  being beaten is shame filled.  it means you either like it or have NO control over your life.  being worthless and useless.  I was told to my face by my parents that they wished I was dead.  I was the cause of everything bad in their lives.  and they taught my sisters.  

admitting this I can feel my abdomen relaxing, the pain leaving.
