Month: July 2018

If you are anything like me, we just need to git ‘er done! So many things have to be done all the time! I thought I had a relaxing summer to look forward too but in all reality, summer break just gives me more time to get things done!

I thought (I don’t know why I thought this but…) when you get older, things calm down, you begin to rest easy and get some relaxation in! Boy was I wrong! One of my close church friends replied to me after saying this, “Why in the world would you think that?” Now I have to rethink everything!

I thought that since I had everything established, everything could run itself. Ha ha… I am still helping to take care of mom, thank you to my sister who is nearby, so she helps. And not to leave out my older brother, Ken, who lives in Missouri, so he is quite a bit out of the way, but when he is around, he helps too. Still battling with those tenants down south! I have filed eviction papers (GET OUT!), summary of ejection papers (NO, REALLY! GET OUT NOW!), we have a court date, on the previous date of when the lease was to end anyway, but now I have to file a “Writ of Possession” of my own parent’s house! Ridiculous. All this could have been avoided if he had just paid his rent like the rest of us mere mortals! All I can say is, “It will all be over soon… thank you God!” Hopefully, this will almost be over for good. It’s hard not to blame the ex realtor who talked my mom into renting in the first place, when he knew she didn’t want to rent.

At least I get a trip down south out of the deal. I have gotten into hypnosis lately and I plan on sitting on the beach NOT worrying about all this and not in the living room. Maybe the change of scenery will do me good. I am packing my hypnosis tapes and special glasses to enhance the process.

I am so sorry for complaining but believe it or not, I feel better when I get it all out. My mom is moving back in, we redesigned the downstairs and it looks awesome! I will have her closer and maybe she won’t be so lonely. And I want to give a shout out to my daughter Ashley, ten more days! And my husband for still sticking by my side through all of this mess. And my new grandson is the cutest little baby ever! Thanks Shayna for the visit last week with the kids, it helped me to forget for awhile. 🙂

Remember those old commercials that showed a hot frying pan on the stove, “This is your brain,” cracks an egg on it, “This is your brain on drugs?” Yeah, me too. I remember.

I’ve always been fascinated by the brain. When getting my master’s degree, I had to take a class on the brain. I thought it was so interesting! I loved hearing about how it worked, and why, how to make yourself remember things and why certain tricks worked. My dad had joked with me, “If you like it so much why don’t you become a brain surgeon?” he’d ask. I think he just wanted a daughter as a brain surgeon.

Lately, I have been diving into something involving the brain and it’s power. I don’t want to reveal my secret yet, but I will. It really is an awesome organ if you think about it. It really tells our whole body what to do and how to do it, and when! It has all this power, all we have to do is control it and do our will. Whether we choose for evil, or for good. Ha! I am just reprogramming mine to do what I want, too bad I waited so long… but just like a bad habit takes awhile to train, so does a good habit. So, wish me luck, even though I have already decided. I know some of you detectives out there already know what I’m talking about but you’ll just have to wait until I’m ready.

Your brain makes all your decisions for you. When to get up, what to cook for dinner, how to drive to work or school. We can either make good decisions, or not so good ones. Every decision has a consequence, so let’s try to keep the good ones!

Have a great day everyone!
