Namaste

Well, many of you believe I may have dropped off the face of the Earth or 'rounded up' :)It has been a crazy year for me.I sold my house last December and have not gotten settled since.I have been following 'the dream' of living on a boat. So I bought one down in Florida for a really excellent price, or so I thought. The price was so good, I did not have it inspected. Well...... you can imagine what that got me.The boat is still in Florida. Almost a year later, still being worked on and still having lots of problems. Every month I thought, it was going to start the trip up, yet month after month goes by and yet there is another problem that has to be fixed. It has taken a major toll on me, where it has done a real number on me, mentally, emotionally, physically and financially. There is yet another problem now that has to be fixed before she can come up.My intention is to name the boat 'Namaste'. The meaning of which is from the Eastern cultures and it is: "The Divine Light in me, sees the Divine Light in you. Together we are one in that state." For me it is to try and see everyone in the truth of themselves and me, which we are all divine we just have to bring the inner to the outer. We all need to have the intent to be the best we can be and to see others as who they are in truth.So, for 2 and half years I had the intention of selling my house and everything in it to buy and live on a boat. With that intention in mind, I had signed up for a Diesel powered technology course at the college. There was a 2 year waiting list to get into the course. I signed up in 2013 for it, in March they called my name up as being able to get in. I delayed starting until May, thinking I was going to bring the boat up between March and May.... well that didn't happen.I have been in college learning diesel engines, welding, electrical and so on, since May. I go every day to class, except for the weekends. Class starts at 8 am. I am the only woman in my class and the oldest. There are 21 of us, who have all started at different times. Some of the guys will be graduating at the end of this year and so on every couple of months, someone leaves and new people come in. It is a 20 month course, so I will graduate December 2016.I am loving the course. I have had no mechanical experience before this. No one in my family has ever been mechanical in the least. I had never even changed the oil in any of my cars previously. So I have been starting from not knowing a single thing about engines. Many of the guys (all in teens or twenties, except for one 40 ish man) have been around engines and know a lot before they get into the course. The guys in their teens signed up for the course before they were even juniors in high school, since it is such a long wait list.Our instructor is amazing. He literally knows everything about engines. He built an engine and completely re did a truck at the age of 14. He knows everything imaginable, including every type fuel system, rail there is and he is a master mechanic besides welder and so on. I am thrilled to have him as our instructor and learning from him.It has been a really hard year, that has entailed so much frustration besides many other emotions. I haven't been able to even write about it because I have been so emotional regarding it all.It seems that almost everyone I talk to has had a very trying year. There have been other things that have caused emotional distress too, including a sister who had kidnapped our father and hid him for his money. He died after she had him sign everything over to her in his will. The emotions and anger I have dealt with regarding that, there is no expressing into words. She took so much more than money, which she will one day have to repay in really strong karma. She took away soul forgiveness and a deep soul atonement that would have been good for all of us and now we can never get back. She may have gotten all his money and possessions, but that is only temporary and greed vibrations. It is the higher love and forgiveness realm she will one day have to pay back and I sure in the hell would not want to be her! She had done this a few years ago in getting all of our grandparents money through having a will naming her as the beneficiary. But what she did with our father, by hiding him from his family and friends........ that is completely evil in the core. Oh, but of course she is one of those... who says I am a "Christian" in every sentence... "Pray for me".... She is one who preys on people's emotions and uses God as her facade. She is an over the top "Christian" along with her husband and son. She and her family will live sorry and pitiful lives due to what they do and 'God' will have his vengeance upon their heads. Karma is a Bitch.... when you create bad Karma and you live in through lies and greed, instead of Love and doing what is right for all.I did do one adventure this year, which I still need to write about. I went down to the Bayou Corne sinkhole in Louisiana and investigated it. I took a lot of pictures and talked to the local people there about what was really going on and what is happening now. I will try and get the information up soon about the sinkhole.So.... that is the very short of what has been happening with me and why I have not been posting. Besides there has been so many times I have wanted to post about things, but would be too frustrated or emotional about various subjects.
