    I hear you 1InMany. I am quick to draw that too. And Flash, that's a funny story. Made me laugh. It's synchronistic because I have a power steering leak in my auto, and every other day I am pouring in more fluid. Gonna have to get it fixed one of the days.

    Flash, we should've sent an Angel protection for your car .. hmm, and it's not too late, with the Hon Sen symbol that transcends time and space. Maybe it can still come to a good resolution. It's the next best thing to having Eaglespirit in the neighborhood.

    I've been having dreams, that I remember in snipets the next day, of a community where we are all working together on good projects. I don't know what exactly, but it's the best feeling I get when i remember bits of the dreams. I recognize a few people, but I know everyone is there. Everyone who wants to be a part of it.

    I'm beginning to feel strong connections to devas and spirits now. I think it was the axiatonal reconnection that brought it clear and strong. I did a MAP session on myself last night, and whoa, it brought me to sobs, connecting with these beings. I am working on physical symptoms that have returned, with easy confidence that all is well. Especially when I know who has my back.

    My friend T is calling me that it's time to go get lunch. Things at work at insane sometimes ... we have to get away. I keep telling her to come to the village. Maybe she will. That reminds me, Ulli, we haven't seen Yukondiva post here ... we're waiting for her when she's ready, and I think Paula has a bouquet of flowers for her....

    I used to keep a keen eye on the goings on at Cern. When I was watching closely to see if they would find the God particle, I was caught up in the Big Evil vs. the Big Good.

    Your intuition on this was spot on ...

    Simon says (no pun) Cern being shut down (hmmmm) closed a major portal shutting off dark multidimensional support for the illooney naughties.

    Hey ... who am I to argue???


    Quote Posted by Simon (here)
    Hi,
    Yes the portal has closed up - there is now no easy route to the 4thD.
    For want of a better word a wormhole existid thatw as a dirct routeway, it was the prime way as many other smaller offshoots have been closed or are guarded.
    the alien beings on earth now have no where to go.

    Simon, could you please explain the 'sealing in of the portal'? I don't understand.

    Nice to know they are not too happy with this option. Neither are the rest of us, but it gives hope that it will backfire.

    The thermal baths we visit on Wednesday mornings have one pool which is freezing cold,
    and I never have the guts to swim in that temperature, but today I took the plunge.
    Right after sitting in a hot frog boiler. What a sensation. I feel different and really refreshed.
    Healing takes place with just alternating water temperatures, something which ancient German spas offer as a cure for many ailments.

    Oups, just back from the garage. I had problems with the power steering, was lacking oil. I do lose a bottle of oil every 3 months about, and I knew it. So, 2 weeks ago (new year day), it had become an arm steering, no more power. At night, 2 hours drive from home. I found a gaz station opened and bought a power steering oil bottle to put in. Open the hood, put the oil in, seeing about nothing. Of course, did not check in the car book prior. Afterward, my steering was getting worst and worst.

    Today, the garagist opened my hood, check the power steering oil, it was empty. I was looking at where he was checking, and then I asked: "what is this container for?" showing another container with my finger. His answer: "brake oil", me: "oups, I put power steering oil in it, in the dark, at night" Him: This oil has solvent, you should never put it there, oil brake should never have any solvent, you can mix all other oil containers up, but not this one" him thinking "stupid women" I am sure, I was telepathic this morning lol.

    Result, I am going back this afternoon to have the whole brakes system flushed. Hopefully, it did not go to the bottom of the container yet. Few hundred boxes.

    Other result: 800$ to plan to change the power steering "crémaillère", on an old car that does not really worth it. Or continue to add oil until I end up with seals completely destroyed.

    Solutions: Put money in an old car or buy a new one. But as I have been very slow in work and low in spirit all summer and fall, money is not really there. And I need roof repairs (80 degrees slopes roof, they looked like spidermans when they did it in 95, very expensive to redo). So, I am left in a limbo in my mind and decision making.

    Gosh did I feel very much up to the bad reputation of blondes this morning (I am blonde bue eyes originally - it does change with age and coloring).

    I put break fluid in the power steering once -a long time ago LOL it was fine.

    A couple of nights ago the main circuit breaker on my house blew. Had a dark oil lamp & candle light night, but
    not cold had a good hot fire burning in the stove. The first thing I thought was I wish Ernie and eaglespirit lived
    a lot closer.
    The next morning I met my father for breakfast at one of the local restaurants. The place wasn't busy so I plugged my cell
    phone in to charge. One of the customers laughed and asked me what are you doing. I laughed too and told them about the circuit breaker, but at least the pipes in the house haven't frozen over or leaked like so many people were have problems.

    I sat down to order and when my phone was charged up enough I called electricians to see how much and when they could come out to replace it. No one wants to drive up the mountain.... too far away.... the customer who had laughed at me earlier was sitting there listening to these conversations with electrical contractors. He said I'm a contractor and home renovations and do home & commercial appliance installations. I'm up here on a call I'll take a look at it and see if I can help you out. He came over took out the breaker, drove all the down the mountain to the electrical supply store bought the breaker and other supplies needed. (the circuit breaker was fried & some of the wires). Drove all the way back up here. Stood in the cold and wind replaced the breaker, wires & rewired some of it and charged me about a third of what I was quoted plus the parts. Unbelievable. I got the company card for the future -I have some appliances that will need replacing
    soon.... and maybe the water heater updated. I looked at the business card turned it over and come to find out he's the owner of the company....

    In the middle of all this I called the local wood guy (running low on red oak), he said that everyone is running out and I've had to turn a lot of people down and I'm low too. He said well let me see what I do. By the time I had driven home to meet the contractor, he had brought a truck load of red oak, stacked neatly in the yard plus he left a large bundle of kindling, which I already have plenty. But none the less a nice gesture.

    The cool thing about all of this is that the numbers on the contractor's license & phone numbers and the wood guy's phone number are all variations of my mothers last telephone number. As most of you know she passed on a few years back.

    Looks like I have an angel watching over me.
    I think she's letting me know she is around and helping. Love you mom.

    How nice, bless you, Paula.
    I know Yukondiva is busy with other stuff today. She couldn't even meet us at the thermal pools, though she lives just a walk from there.
    Maybe she wants to get it out of the way first, before getting involved with forum life.

    The local community of English speakers is growing here...and Im thrilled.
    Soon we could be competing with Bill's mountain in Ecuador.
    Just saw an ad in today's paper that says round trip flights from Fort Lauterdale to San Jose Costa Rica will be available for $175 from May onwards.
    I could find cabins for $40 a day for two people. No car rental is needed as there is bus service everywhere, and very cheap. Long trips for less than a dollar.
    Food at the local farmers markets is cheap too, compared to the US. A couple could live here for under a $1000 a month easily. Especially if they know people to show them the ropes.
    I have one friend who used to be an agent for an Italian fashion company for the US market, and she did very well. She now has retired on the mountain behind us, built herself a lovely house, but still works from her computer, doing accounting services for a NY business. She never has to leave Costa Rica, yet can earn $100 a day, working from her home. I wish some North American and European Avalonians would think of doing the same, at least come during the winter months. I would
    love to help them get settled, and have them as neighbors.

    Hello Flash,

    “Cancel, cancel”....negative programing is not helpful for a Blonde Bombshell Beauty such as yourself. (This coming from a blonde blue/blue-green eyes One.) I only address the "dumb blonde" comment here.

    I chalk it up to the place you are in. If my car is off, it sends me into panic mode. Now I say, “Cancel-cancel to me”. I'm semi-flummoxed, when I open the hood of my 2003 Toyota RAV4. It’s hard to even change the battery the way it’s tucked and covered. I use to change my own oil on one of my Toyotas. With the 1968 Volvo, I replaced the alternator and gave it regular tune-ups; new plugs, points and condensor (sp?). And my 1963 VW, I replaced the brakes. Can’t do any of that now. I believe they intentionally make cars complicated so people can’t maintain their own vehicles. I saved big bucks getting grease under my finger nails.

    I’m rambling. I feel helpless right now, Flash. I want to acknowledge that you’ve got a lot on your shoulders, and for so many years. It takes courage to be a single parent, and not compromise your personal standard just for someone to split the rent/mortgage. You are such a beautiful role model for your daughter! She is so fortunate to have a you for a Mom!

    On a lighter note, like one of those slip covers for couches and chairs, I’m lending my Massari slip cover to you. Keep it as long as you need it. Don’t worry about the insurance, I’ll take care of it for you. It’s the least I can do.


    Love,
    Paula

    PS I’ve operated a crane and a pay loader. Now I’m shamelessly showing off. But, when does that ever come up in conversation? Flash, you hit a nerve in me. As a single parent, I had to find creative ways to end each month in the black. Some months were more successful than others. Insert clarification here: "no", I never sold my Soul or any other part. Ha! But the bright side is that we get to see what we are really made of. I am so appreciative of where I’ve come from. It helps when things look all twisted.

    And since you are a constructor, we would even have a job for you,
    free board and lodging and a wage on top.

    Yes, I left Yukondiva a balloon bouquet with a direct link to Our Home in the "Here and Now". Though, I don't know if she knows how to pick up messages.

    Hi Villagers, hope all is well and everyone is prospering.

    Felt that the Village was the only space to share my news, as I've been rather sparse around PA in recent months. After 2 and a half years in Canada, I'm back in the States. Texas, San Marcos, to be exact, registered and beginning the last semester of classes I'll ever take to complete a degree program. After 5 years away - and with few material resources - it was a process getting back in and settled, but, with the apparent support of the multiverse through synchronicities and help appearing miraculously out of nowhere, this ex-patriot Texan is now home. The material support offered by family and friends old and new, the opening of doors and the gracious energetic well-wishing felt most often rather than heard or seen has been invaluable, leaving me filled with gratitude and humility. The supernatural support, everything clicking into place exactly when it was needed is direct proof of either my being on the right path for my higher self to manifest most ably in the world or some multidimensional plan by some power or another to place me in some space or another in preparation for something else. Whichever it is, I'm grateful, as it feels good to say the least. There's hard work to be done now, but my resolve and desire to complete the task at hands will see me through to a graduation in May.

    Life feels good, and good things have been progressing as the year 2012 ended and the New Year began. The future, despite the still-numerous prognostications in opposition, remains light, white, purple, green or whatever.

    Those prices are certainly more than affordable, Ulli. You better watch out or you'll be hosting a party of Avalonians every weekend before too long!

    Oups, just back from the garage. I had problems with the power steering, was lacking oil. I do lose a bottle of oil every 3 months about, and I knew it. So, 2 weeks ago (new year day), it had become an arm steering, no more power. At night, 2 hours drive from home. I found a gaz station opened and bought a power steering oil bottle to put in. Open the hood, put the oil in, seeing about nothing. Of course, did not check in the car book prior. Afterward, my steering was getting worst and worst.

    Today, the garagist opened my hood, check the power steering oil, it was empty. I was looking at where he was checking, and then I asked: "what is this container for?" showing another container with my finger. His answer: "brake oil", me: "oups, I put power steering oil in it, in the dark, at night" Him: This oil has solvent, you should never put it there, oil brake should never have any solvent, you can mix all other oil containers up, but not this one" him thinking "stupid women" I am sure, I was telepathic this morning lol.

    Result, I am going back this afternoon to have the whole brakes system flushed. Hopefully, it did not go to the bottom of the container yet. Few hundred boxes.

    Other result: 800$ to plan to change the power steering "crémaillère", on an old car that does not really worth it. Or continue to add oil until I end up with seals completely destroyed.

    Solutions: Put money in an old car or buy a new one. But as I have been very slow in work and low in spirit all summer and fall, money is not really there. And I need roof repairs (80 degrees slopes roof, they looked like spidermans when they did it in 95, very expensive to redo). So, I am left in a limbo in my mind and decision making.

    Gosh did I feel very much up to the bad reputation of blondes this morning (I am blonde bue eyes originally - it does change with age and coloring).

    I put break fluid in the power steering once -a long time ago LOL it was fine.

    A couple of nights ago the main circuit breaker on my house blew. Had a dark oil lamp & candle light night, but
    not cold had a good hot fire burning in the stove. The first thing I thought was I wish Ernie and eaglespirit lived
    a lot closer.
    The next morning I met my father for breakfast at one of the local restaurants. The place wasn't busy so I plugged my cell
    phone in to charge. One of the customers laughed and asked me what are you doing. I laughed too and told them about the circuit breaker, but at least the pipes in the house haven't frozen over or leaked like so many people were have problems.

    I sat down to order and when my phone was charged up enough I called electricians to see how much and when they could come out to replace it. No one wants to drive up the mountain.... too far away.... the customer who had laughed at me earlier was sitting there listening to these conversations with electrical contractors. He said I'm a contractor and home renovations and do home & commercial appliance installations. I'm up here on a call I'll take a look at it and see if I can help you out. He came over took out the breaker, drove all the down the mountain to the electrical supply store bought the breaker and other supplies needed. (the circuit breaker was fried & some of the wires). Drove all the way back up here. Stood in the cold and wind replaced the breaker, wires & rewired some of it and charged me about a third of what I was quoted plus the parts. Unbelievable. I got the company card for the future -I have some appliances that will need replacing
    soon.... and maybe the water heater updated. I looked at the business card turned it over and come to find out he's the owner of the company....

    In the middle of all this I called the local wood guy (running low on red oak), he said that everyone is running out and I've had to turned a lot of people down and I'm low too. He said well let me see what I do. By the time I had gotten home to meet the contractor, he had brought a truck load of red oak, stacked neatly in the yard plus he left a large bundle of kindling, which I already have plenty. But none the less a nice gesture.

    The cool thing about all of this is that the numbers on the contractor's license & phone numbers and the wood guy's phone number are all variations of my mothers last telephone number. As most of you know she passed on a few years back.

    Looks like I have an angel watching over me.
    I think she's letting me know she is around and helping. Love you mom.

    What is going on? 'Here and Now' has made me spring a leak. Boo, hoo's all over the place. Such powerful posts! My ears are blocking. Not wanting to take in such intensity, yet loving it too.

    I'm at a loss to help everyone. This is the only way I can move the lock on my heart. Pretend it's not a repost:

    We’ve got free sets of wings all prepped and ready to go. Take one and pass some along. Plenty where these come from. Need an upgrade? Here help yourself. Big doings everyday the "Bunch of Beauties" that we are.


    I see a whole lotta Blessed Ones, who by their very nature bring rhythmic movement, flow, and Light to whomever is in their vicinity. Ripple effect. Boink, boink, here comes another...here these are for You. Take one and pass some along.

    Great Beings of Light. Man, I love this place! Alls we have to do is Experience. That’s it. No big secret. Just live what you love. You’ll see all that peace, joy, bliss are not far behind. Experience it. Chuckles, song, Buddha belly laughter, merry-go-rounds, peace pipes (yes, those too, ha!), tree forts, tree houses, kitty cats and puppy dogs, jump rope, hop scotch, bean-bag kerplunks ... Seems like the only problem is how to decide which to do, Now. Tee.

    Hearts and More Hearts,

    Why not. My home has a guest room and bathroom with hot shower, in the second cabin where I converted the living room into a jewelry studio.

    Available inside this 6 acre property are also three more cabins which are too run down right now for anyone to stay in,
    but I could ask my brother-in-law to lease them to me and I would then replace the leaky roof and ceilings and fix them up a bit and rent them out for $350 a month, based on short lets, or $100 a week, or $40 a night. I could offer breakfast on my huge terrace which is 300 feet away, all inside the same complex. Maybe for now it's just a dream, but this place is very special, and everyone who has visited says they cannot believe the incredible energy here. Feedback is encouraging, and with each post from one of you showing real interest my mind gets flooded with more ideas.
    For now just google Orosi Valley, or Rio Palomo, Orosi, or Los Patios, Orosi (the thermal pools...(entrance costs $4) and you will find more info. Meanwhile I will upload more pictures to my Photobucket account.
    Getting excited here.....

    It has never occurred to me to run a bed and breakfast.
    I know how hard it is, because my former in-laws had a beach hotel in Barbados,
    and the work was just endless...admin, maintenance, restaurant.
    They had 60 staff, and no freedom, not even to travel.
    They built it in 1977, and sold it in 1987.

    But then I thought that this would be different,
    as I wouldn't have to worry about $500 a night standards.
    Maybe with low prices I could even ask guests to make their own beds
    and just have a maid once a week to clean the bathrooms. Very casual and informal.
