Finally... Posted: 05-31-08 20:13pm
Yes, finally I can sit down and enjoy the
weekend. After breakfast I skipped rope a
hundred and fifty times as we agreed
Homerx and I. Then I treated my hair,
went for my walk to the labyrinth. Said
prayers for everybody I can remember.
Went to London Drugs to get garbage bags.
Met my friend Geladine who was with two
other women. We chatted for while. I
went and got lunch meats and came home.
We had lunch and then my brother in law
came over. He and his older brother were
playing video games. I decided to do the
dishes first. I wiped the counters and
the stove top. I thank God for
conveniences like hot and cold water, a
tap, a functioning toilet, a bath tub, a
fridge, a stove, a nice bed to sleep in.
Things like those. Food...
From the kitchen I washed the tub, the
toilet and the sink. Swept the kitchen
floor and cleaned it. Hands on knees is
what I do best. I washed the bathroom
floor as well. I cleared my desk. Dear
husband has to do the same. There is soo
much stuff on his desk and I don't know
what is what. He has to do it himself.
I'll keep bugging him
After that I vacuumed. I feel like I have
my life back to normal. I still have to
dust but most of the work is done.
I want to thank you for your kindness and
goodness to me. You have made me realize
the many things that I have to be thankful
for. And, to let go of past mistakes. As
you say, until you can cut them and be
free of them, they hold you back down on
the earth. Cut that cord and you have
released whatever pain and sorrow they
have caused you. And, conversely, what
sorrow you may have caused them in
return.
Your image of the stones was quite
profound. I have a beautiful grey stone
which is worn smooth which I keep in my
bathroom. That stone will be where I
deposit all the unhappy memories of my
former BF. Homer says we are not going to
mention his name again. That is
brilliant. To give a name means that you
acknowledge the person.
You and Homer are the best things that
ever happened to me.
I can climb upstairs and sit at my
computer up there where the printer is
functioning and write the termination
letter but the business relationship is
already severed, finished, over with and
out of here.
My new vineyard manager has had a crew in
here cleaning up and training the new
vineyards. I have never made a better
decision Mson.
Rosemary, your mother, is a Catholic name.
Were you baptised and confirmed Catholic?
Is your mother still in the faith?
Sorry, I know that is a very personal
question.
Tomorrow, I will go to Mass and this nice
man whom I have met at church is joining
me, then we are going to an antique car
show at the school then he has invited me
to The Wine Attic for music, dancing and
of course wine. He is so nice and like a
little puppy wanting me to like him. I
can't be with anybody in that special way.
Not now and maybe never.
Last night at the winery dinner, everybody
was so nice to him but checking him out.
They said he is a really nice guy. He is
but I think Heaven can get a bit crowded
when you drag too many husbands up there.
Walter was my husband and the only one I
ever wanted. It was nice, though, to have
someone as good company. Pray for me
Mson.
My brother kept telling me to pray that
God would send to me a good man to be my
husband who would love and treasure me. I
don't know Mson. Maybe this guy could be
him. Will have to wait and see.
Love to you and BH. Give him a very
special massage and lots of love.
Your friend,
Bobbie

Good Monday,
friends..
I am getting a slow start today. Mson, i
walked yesterday 30 minutes...I will do
the same today and lift weights a
little...It is so hot I think it is
draining of me energy every time I step
out side. I talked to my doc this morning.
I need a colostomy I hate
those...the prep drains me but my father
has colon cancer, my grandfather and 2
uncles died from it on my dads side so i
will have to get one. i dont know when as
we only have one car with AC and I cant
drive to town in the heat so I dont know
when I will be able to get it done. Its
always something.
Mson, I got the blessed green prayer cloth
for you yesterday. I will pray on it, kiss
it and hold it for a day then send it to
you to keep you safe and so you can wear
it and pray with it...it will help protect
you. Plus it will look nice if you wear
it. It couldn't
hurt, right? And you will know this came
from someone who loves you, not some
televangelist who only wanted your $$..
Talk to you and Bobbie soon...Bobbie, glad
its all going so well...I knew it would
Love,Homer

Homerx and Bobbie. Posted: 06-02-08 14:00pm
Bobbie that is not a personal question. I
am not sure which church we went to when I
was born but later we became Presbyterian.
I was born as Minnie which is a form of
Mary. Then in the school system my name
changed to Minneh. I am named Muthoni
after my paternal grandmother. May she
rest in peace. When I got married, I gave
up the Muthoni name just to cut the bad
history and start a fresh. I used my
father's middle name as my middle name and
I have my beloved husband's last name. I
feel new. More than 60% new.
In all other forums I have used the name
Minneh but when I got here, I chose
Muthoni. My grandmother.
Bobbie I have very happy for you. Hope you
change the code if you haven't done so
already because remember what you found
missing? Change the code Bobbie.
Homerx,
You rock. After I they never sent me my
green cloth, I started to doubt if I
wanted one. I will wear the one you
anointed on my wrist. It is real
medicine. It will help me. I am leaving
the cocoon Steve. Slowly but surely. I
believe I can fly. You raise me up
Homerx....
Bobbie & Homerx,
I love you both lots...
Today I woke up at 6:40am. My beloved
husband made me a pan cake. Yesterday he
forgot to put away the milk and so I had
no milk for my cereal. Luckily, he had
some left over pancake mix in the fridge
and I was able to have breakfast. Thanks
Jesus. This is why I need the prayer
cloth because Ssatan wanted me to be
grumpy. But no, not I. I had a class to
teach. Souls to touch.
I was teaching a class at 8:05am. I was
there with time to spare. Thank you
Jesus. I had energy and did the whole
presentation. I have another presentation
at 1:05pm. I finished the first class
after an hour and took the bus to the
labyrinth and came home. I watered the
house plants. I could hear them screaming
for water. Being able to take care of
something or someone else means you have
something in order to be able to give.
I am leaving in 23 minutes for the class
but first I have to eat my lunch.
Mson and Bobbie, you are both such busy
people. I sit home almost every day...
I have a thing about getting out in heat
and bugs and all that stuff here in
Texas..its horrible for someone like me.
Bobbie, Ricky and I are thinking about
moving back to California if we can get
what we want for our house. We are looking
at Redding or somewhere up North..I am
just about sick of Texas. Too red neck.
Too hot. Too many bugs. Too rural out
here. I need city life at least some
times. I love culture and liberal thinking
people and there just are too many
republican bible thumping hypocrites out
here
But I can deal with it for now as long as
I have you guys to talk to.
Thanks for being my friends...
Love,Steve/Homer/whatever

Hello To You Friends Posted: 06-04-08 21:15pm
I have been pretty busy here getting
things done. First, I go out into the
winery to discover when I pulled four
bottles to send to the State of California
wine competition that the boxes (37) were
actually placed with the bottles up. Not
good. So with all the strength that I
had, I asked God to help me. These were 7
boxes high and in the corner where finally
I had to leave the ladder and put my foot
onto a wine barrel to be able to turn them
over. My body feels it today.
Then, tomorrow is clean up day and I had
to move all the cartons which surrounded
the the baby grape plants down to the
bottom of the hill for pick up. It was
four hours but I feel good about it. As
usual Lee said just get Jamie to come out
with two guys, a trailer and take it to
the dump and be rid of it. For $150.00.
No. It wasn't his money. I feel I made
$150.00 today. Just like when he said,
have the tractor guy dig a big ditch and
bury all the roots from the trees and be
done with it. That cost me an additional
$5,000.00. We could have burned the
things for no cost. Just never stopped to
think of all these things adding way up
for me.
The progress is going slowly on training
the new plants which is freaking me out.
It is going to wind up costing me
$5,000.00 with the way it is going. I had
thought maybe $2,500.00 with the way Lee's
guys worked. I don't know. Hope I have
made the right decision. I know I have
been out there and tried to tie them down
and it is very delicate and tedious work.
A good worker can only do 23 to 27 plants
an hour and there are 8,750 plants. Just
have to trust in the Lord here Homer.
Thanks for the love of the avatar. Lee is
a sweetheart. She put it on for me. That
will be my avatar. It is the Oklahoma
rose, the most beautiful, truly damask
smelling rose in the world. It is where I
was born. I love that rose.
Make dinner and talk with you later.
Bobbie

Bobbie and Homerx. Posted: 06-05-08 00:10am
I have just finished doing eight
presentations in the last little while.
That and working at the club got me
tired.
Today I went to the Chinese doctor and he
took my pause. He detected anxiety and
also said that my immune system is low.
He gave me some herbs to boil and drink
and he said as long as I take my
medication four hours apart from when I
take the herbs, I should be OK. So I have
boiled the herbs and I have one cup ready
to take tomorrow morning. I have herbs
for 4 days and then I will go back and see
the herbalist. I believe in this kind of
medicine.
Homerx,
I cannot believe you did all those
questions. You worked real hard. Now
what will I do to keep busy? Just
kidding. But seriously those were a lot
of posts. Good job and God bless. Now we
can concentrate on the new posts.
Bobbie,
Change is always different. I think the
new people are doing a better job and it
will show eventually. I will continue to
pray for you.
Mson, thanks for sharing your journey of
the names given to you by the Angel of the
Lord who knows and gives unto the mother,
the name of the child that she will give
birth to.
You are just so sweet and loving, kind and
good.
Homer, I have been overwhelmed lately
getting all these heavy things lifted and
changed in the winery. At least most of
the boxes were o.k. I can be thankful
that I was able to change the boxes and
they were at the top, otherwise, it would
have been totally impossible. Thanks be
to God.
I have tried to do some of the tying down
of the new plants onto the cardion wire,
but Lee's people who planted the vineyard
put them on the wrong side of the posts
which makes it difficult to train.
Honestly, what was he thinking? About
making money off me was what he was
thinking. He says he loves this little
vineyard, don't take him away from his
babies. He lost those babies a long time
ago. They should never have been put into
the ground in the first place. I would be
a lot better off but my son says, "Mom,
that is water under the bridge." You have
to go forward. I love Mark. He is coming
home Saturday and we will go to the dinner
for the grape growers and he can meet my
friends.
WOW! How
cool...thanks, Mson and Bobbie...I never
even knew that Testimonial section was
there... how
did i miss that? I
will have to add something to that forum
soon...
Its so hot and windy today... I guess summer has
arrived...ug! not my favorite
time of year here in the South...I miss
California so much...some day i will get
back, don't know how and dont know when
but I will get back home some day...

My Day... Posted: 06-06-08 00:16am
At about 6:00am I needed to use the
washroom and so I came downstairs and
remembered to drink the bitter liquid from
the herbs. I went back to bed and woke up
at 8:45am to the alarm. I had to be at
work in an hour.
My stomach was emptied like a cleanse. I
felt that I had more energy during the
day. During my break I ran home and back
to work.
Work was great. They are giving us half
hour breaks now. All your prayers Bobbie
and Homerx have been working.
From work I came home and Chris and Amy
were visiting with my beloved husband. We
had to leave for a doctor's appointment.
My BH always comes with me to my doctor's
appointment. This was the mental health
doctor.
I told him I am concerned about gaining
weight. Like I mean I am almost 170
pounds. He told me everything they use
causes weight gain. He said we will see
how much I weigh in three months and then
he will decided if he will reduce my
medication. I would like it to go down to
5mg. If not, that is OK too. I am not
really concerned about the weight I just
want the medication to be reduced.
From there we came home. Amy left and
then Sandor came mbae. I missed the
labyrinth yesterday, sleeping in and then
school teaching and then work. Today even
though I did not feel like walking, I got
myself out of the house and put one foot
in front of the other. Ya.
On the way I met with this couple that
sells art and plays music. We chatted for
a while. They were saying that I should
be adopted mbae the native people. He is
native from the States.
First I had met with Richard who is a
member of the club. He
lives out of his cart but he is always
happy. He told me that worrying about
something is not going to change a thing.
You can see in his eyes and his face, the
joy. He said he might encounter things he
does not like but he accepts them.
At the labyrinth I saw Sean who works at
the church and he offered me a pop. He
mixed orange juice and ginger ale. It was
a good refreshing drink.
The walk back home was uneventful. Chris,
Sandor, my BH and I went out for Chinese
dinner.
We don't have much money but we have
pocket money coming in every week as long
as I work but we have good credit. It
helps me not to have financial panics.
Thanks for your prayers. I have had
pocket money since my cleaning job.
It is bed time now. I will drink some
more of those herbs tomorrow morning and
see what happens.
I used to have dark spots all over my feet
for the longest time. Yesterday I was
showing the herbalist my feet and he could
not see what was wrong with them. I
checked later and the spots have faded to
almost none. Something is happening to my
body and it shows. Thanks Jesus, bless
all that pray for me.
My idea is to get well so that I can
lessen other people's pain. I feel that I
lived so that others may not have to
suffer the way I suffered. I learned for
the most part through mistakes like most
people I suppose.
Mson, thanks! You made me LOL..."It is bed
time for BONZO! I
cracked up big time...thanks, dearest.
I am glad the herbs seem to be doing good
for you. I was worried. I get nervous over
the tiniest things sometimes. I was afraid
they might not be good for you combined
with your meds but I guess I was wrong.
Sounds like they work...do you know what
is in the herbal drink? maybe I should try
it
I haven't left the house all week. Ricky
has the car at work and the truck has no
AC and its hot and muggy so I am trapped
in my house! I need to go get
pricked and to the drug store and grocery
store...oh well, maybe this week end.
its always something...if it isn't one
thing then its another
Today I will walk the treadmill and lift a
few weights and change the sheets on the
bed and dust the tables and... wow I guess I have a
lot to do today after all I guess I better
get busy....talk to you later
Oh Bobbie, thanks for the posts on that
stupid Catholic Dogma Wanna Be A Holly
Roller Mans thread...
he can make me so irritated and you are
right, I need to not get so worked up and
get my blood pressure boiling..

Yesterday. Posted: 06-07-08 14:44pm
I took my mixture of herbs at 6:00am and
slept in so that the herbs may work. I
had breakfast and replied to my emails. I
am trying to read and reply on a daily
basis.
After breakfast I started cleaning as it
was housekeeping day. After I read about
Homerx cleaning and dusting, I really got
in the mood. Scrubbed the tub, cleaned
the toilet. Did the dishes. Wiped the
stove and counter, swept and cleaned the
kitchen floor. Cleaned the bathroom floor
and de-cluttered the tables and then
vacuumed. I did it all with a grateful
heart. Glad that I have a home to clean.
Then it was time to go to work. During my
break I went to the labyrinth and then
came back to work until 7:15pm. Went
home, had dinner.
Was going to give my beloved husband a
massage this morning after not giving him
one last night but I got called to work
this morning. Extra $$. It is all your
prayers. During my break I will go to the
labyrinth again. After work I will go to
Western Union and send some $$ to my
brother to help his daughter get a
passport. I am sending $60 with a $16
charge. Then I have to mbae a calling
card to call my brother to inform him
about the token. Since I got paid from
speaking at the school, I can afford to
send some money home.
Good Monday,
friends.. 
I hate
those...the prep drains me but my father
has colon cancer, my grandfather and 2
uncles died from it on my dads side so i
will have to get one. i dont know when as
