Mr. Complication is a true contradiction 🙄🤦🏻♀️: he wants to be left alone … but he can't stand it 😒 when I leave him alone.
Last night after I set my little project aside, and started doing dishes, he says, "I have to go into Coalinga tomorrow to get some nicotine patches, and you're going with me if I have to hog-tie you and load you into that truck; you need to get out of the house. And I want you with me."
I thought, 'Well la-de-dah'. But, I agreed to go. I agreed because I do need to get out of the house … and I also agreed because he is trying to meet me halfway with the nicotine issue: he heard me after all. And I know he misses me when I claim space, to keep the peace - it wouldn't strain me to meet him halfway.
Middle ground is always a good place to be standing 🕊️
Middle ground is where hope lives 🙏 & change begins to happen ☝️; middle ground gives off good vibrations 👩❤️💋👨

The day was pleasantly sunny, even though there is a storm blowing in, in a couple days:
A little but gusty this afternoon …
A yellow blossom! On the prickly pear cactus, in the alley behind the little mini mart Holland nips into now and then when in Coalinga.
Prickly pear Cactus blossom = internet picture.
Pizza for lunch - we ate it while people watching & making small talk.
When we got back home, Holland took a little nap & I picked up where I left off on the little project I started last night. When he got up again, I went for a short walk around the Park … and learned the little horse's name 😉
It felt good to be walking outside, again: for the past 2 weeks, we have walked a mile in stores (walking, bending, stretching, lifting; daily exercise, just shopping); but, this is my first walk outdoors since we arrived here the end of August. The days have been very hot, which is wonderful for the joints - not so wonderful when engaged in prolonged activity: tonight was cool enough to be active outside 😊
An evening walk today, around the Park - the miniature horse's name is Shaniah (literal spelling posted on the chain link fence).
Just under half a mile.
Back inside, I checked PM's while cooking supper - and was happy with the good vibrations of this message:
Query sent last night.
Reply today. Happy outcome for everyone.
I'm done with death (I was making clothing for stillborn babies, but with all the sibling suicides … and fallout angsts in Holland's family - I got burnt out on anything death related), but I still want to make tiny baby items for parents: I enjoy making tiny clothing, I enjoy designing tiny clothing, and I enjoy knowing I can be productive with the skills Yeshua blessed me with … for the area we are presently in.
My current project …
And just a few minutes ago, I looked up from my current WIP and burst out laughing when I saw my husband's curls sticking up like devil horns; he kinda missed the humor, but I thought it kinda fit his attitude as well as this particular month 🎃😉
His 'devil horns' curls, crack me up 😂🤣
