Here’s a run down from our move to Ocala, Florida. We are loving Ocala already! If you would rather listen instead of read, play the audio:

First impressions:

Furniture – We lived in an RV for 11 years and then a furnished condo for 2 years, so while we are minimalists, we still needed a few pieces of furniture. We got a great deal on two twin mattresses at the first store we visited ($250 each!) and the next day we found a huge furniture consignment store and made offers on a computer desk and leather Serta office chair, and Broyhill console for our TV. Yes, we had bought a new TV 2 years ago for the condo since the one that was there didn’t work right or we couldn’t figure it out. We also ordered two barstools from Amazon for the bar/raised kitchen counter.
Doctor – We’re very happy with Richard’s new doc and I’ll be seeing her as well, whenever needed. She took Richard’s blood and sent it off to a lab for results to come in a few days. We are self pay currently and she only charged us $79 and gave us all the lab fees for the blood tests up front too so there were no surprises at the check out counter. I’ll be writing another article about her so watch for that if you want to know.
Grocery store – We can walk to a Publix and that was the prime reason we chose this apartment community (along with their amenities, beautiful grounds with large oaks, unit floorpan, and availability of a ground floor unit). Publix is employee-owned.
Restaurants – We love the Italian restaurant and diner next to the Publix! Great customer service and selection of food. The food has been hot and delicious. Plus we have a Subway in the plaza too and the Publix deli. Of course I cook–(but not this week as I’m on vacation).
Banking – I started a new account for us at one of the two credit unions here in the plaza. They are not planning on joining the Central Banking Digital Currency (CBDC) thing and are owned by members headquartered in Lakeland, FL with branches all over Florida. They even offer a high-rate Certificate of Deposit that is now paying over 5% interest! We were treated very well and got our new account setup within an hour (though we did have to walk home and back to get our lease to prove our new address). Two banks failed in California recently so I really wanted to move our funds to a safer place and we’ve always loved credit unions.
Apartment Community – The community had a food truck come in yesterday and that was such a treat! We’ve never had that before! We didn’t have anyone help us unload our stuff on Monday or furniture on Tuesday but I asked and that’s what was important. Mostly as you know, I’m very self sufficient. I noticed several people wearing ear buds so that’s why a few didn’t help because they didn’t even hear me ask. I also asked the guys at the furniture store but no one had time or knew anyone to refer us to call.
Neighbors – Our upstairs neighbors were moving in on the same day too so they couldn’t help. And they haven’t learned how to walk in an upstairs apartment. I will wait to see if this improves or we adjust before I say anything about this though. Update 3/25/24: this never got better so we are moving. Yes, again. This has been untenable and apparently, due to the Federal Fair Housing Act, the apartment community cannot assign people to particular apartments based on age, working hours, or what not.
Parking – We don’t have a car and don’t plan to so we have no issues with that. Though our bedroom is in the front of the unit by the parking lot so our neighbor wakes me up at 5am every morning when he starts his Charger. Go figure. Ha!

Mind-Body

It seems man always has a problem describing or explaining quantum mechanics while Nature simply plays it out intrinsically, organically. We can move our fingers, and whole body, in a wave-like fashion and observe our own movements. We don’t need to know the speed of light or how it’s measured in order to do this. We don’t have to know or understand wave function collapse. Any child can strum their fingers on a desk (or in the air) simulating a wave by moving each finger up and down incrementally one after another, and indeed they always have. No knowledge of physics is needed.

I’ll write another article on my mental health observations regarding moving as I already feel layers of the onion peeling away. I noticed yesterday I am much calmer and clear about some things but yes, wherever we go we take ourselves with us! Ha!

U-Haul missteps

Incorrect store location sent to me via confirmation email
Incorrect store opening time sent to me in ALL communications right from the start as well as in confirmation messages
Improper coordination with third-party moving helpers via the U-Haul application and that you have to pay in advance to reserve that help but if they cancel or cannot fulfill their service, they have 3-7 days to return your money! If someone is short on funds they then cannot try to schedule an alternative moving helper company because they will also have to pay in advance for them (while still waiting on the first company to refund their money)!
I’ve sent a review to U-Haul but may also send screen captures of the communications to them at a later date (I’m not sure it’s worth my time/energy)
Thankfully, the U-Haul location for the truck drop-off went well and the lady there, Carla, was quite nice and welcomed us to our new home. Also our Lyft driver from there back to Publix was a retired state trooper from the Virgin Islands and super nice—we even discussed a potential tutoring job for me!

Broyhill cherry wood console – aka “my coffin” as it weighs as much as me and thought it might be the death of us getting it the apartment! I trust the Broyhill name as my parents always had Broyhill furniture since I was a child. Paying homage to them and it will remind me of them everyday!

$40 wood bookcase from Goodwill. I am still arranging things so it will be full of books soon. Hubby has to find new place for his CD player.

Hubby’s new used computer desk and leather office chair from the best consignment store in town.

Got 2 of these. Yes, we are leaving them on the floor.

All in all, we’re sore from doing all of the unloading and walking, but we’re very happy to be here and feel a complete sense of accomplishment getting so much done on our own. Next time, if we ever move again, we’ll hire movers. Ha!

My 4th book is on Amazon!! And here’s how you can read it: Have Yourself a Wholly Vibrant Life: Reversing Asthma and Other Chronic Illness Naturally

To our better health, ease, joy, and sustainment in JOY!

Peace. Out.

Integrating the Spirals to ease suffering

My online Zoom video course, Integrating the Spirals is helpful now more than ever because I know people are suffering. (Let me know if you’re interested in the Integrating the Spirals course.)

As an empath I want to help ease suffering and raise hope. I want to uplift others and raise our collective vibrations and consciousness. I teach breath work and meditation so we appreciate the value of Detachment. We till our inner soil with our breath and that offers us peace and calm. Meditation is an easy way to Connect us with spirit, higher selves, Omniscience God, and receive personal guidance.

Be the best version of who you want to be–because if you’re reading my words your soul is probably beckoning you to align with it and live up to your highest ideals. Not perfect because who is perfect? Most stagnate or ‘get stuck’ while on their way to being whatever they think perfection is. Making progress is enough. Carrying your Karma lightly is enough. Be kind to yourself while living responsibly. Who you ARE affects us ALL. We Are All Connected.

Omniscience knows ALL. Omniscience is always with you. You are never alone.
