This has been another quiet day at home. One of these days I will need to leave the nest and venture out into the world. Just wasn’t today!

I had trouble with sleep again last night. My sleep mask and I were not on speaking terms by morning. Some nights it leaks and hisses at me most of the night. That was last night. I finally took it off and found some quiet sleep.

Made goulash for lunch. I needed some real food to eat and I had what I needed to make that on hand. The pickings are mighty slim around here right now. I need to figure out some food to fix and what I need to make it and go to the grocery store. I keep avoiding that situation and am emptying out my cupboard.

A lady that is working with Leavenworth Detention Center called me today to get some ideas of what they might be able to do. This makes the second call I have received about that Center and a third person said they were going to call but haven’t yet. I trust they are communicating with each other and each group finding a path. There is lots of work to be done but no use doing what someone else is already doing.

The advice I gave her is to pick a side you want to work on. Do you want to work to close the Center and document what they are doing wrong or do you want to work with them and help improve the life of the people being held inside. It feels like an energy thing to me. What do you want the Universe to help you with? Pick a side and work that side. Both need done but it is cross energy for the same person to work both sides.

The Pen Pal program continues to challenge me. Not sure I understand how the email system works. So far only one note has been read by a Detainee. One other note has been sent but is sitting and waiting approval. No one that I know of has sent a note back. I might not be pushing the correct buttons and I am thinking there is a bit of a time delay going on too. Hope we can figure this all out and it becomes a meaningful program. Not off to the best of start though. Patience, grasshopper, patience!

Hoping this week will be the week that I get final approval for the 501(c)3 application. That may be overly optimistic though. Crossing my fingers and hoping for the best. I sure would like to cross that off my pending list and have it be official. Not sure what I will do if it isn’t approved. I will cross that bridge if I have to when I have to.

The guy I transported from the Center to Wichita let me know his son’s flight to Palestine is booked for the 24th. I wish them both the best and trust that all will be well. It would be scary as a parent to send your son to Palestine alone, especially knowing the son has some challenges processing information due to a brain injury.

I felt like I was walking through a swamp land today. No energy and I could feel my energy draining for some reason today. Not an easy day for me. Trusting a good night’s sleep tonight will solve my issues today.

Grateful I could stay home today, grateful for the grass fed beef in my freezer, and grateful it is almost bed time.
