The New Visions Blog!⏳

Wow that's a lot! Whatta week.🙏😜🎸

Hi, y'all 👋🤠!
It's been a crazy week! The thunderstorms have brought a lot of pain to my spine and after we did laundry on Monday, I messed up one of my bad kneecaps putting on the fitted sheet.
I hurt it years ago break dancing!

Anyway it was messed up for a day or so but still had stuff to do.

Right now I'm in a strange headspace! Today I got a Facebook message from someone I haven't seen since 1974. We went to the same Jr high and High school and she knew my brother's. And had been at my brother's funeral in 1982. It was in Brooklyn and I was there from Oregon.

We had an interesting conversation. After my brother was killed by a police car there was a case of accidental wrongful death and my other brother robbed me of whatever my share was.
He lied and said the case wasn't settled yet but I called the lawyer in New York one day and found out it was settled 9 years before.

I called him out for lying about it, more than the money.
He stopped talking to me since 1991. I tried to make peace but he never would.
I have a niece and nephew I never met and see them on Facebook but wouldn't contact them,it wouldn't be right.

Now I hear from someone who is in touch with my brother And some other people from 1974.
It's kinda surreal to me. I figured nothing will happen until judgment day!
Not in this life.
A very good thing did happen, my guitar came!!! I was playing along with YouTube videos. The Who, Neil Young and others! Was nice to know I can still keep a tune and rhythm!

It's a blessing and made me very happy and grateful to have it.

It's funny because I wanted the Teal green one! I never cared about the color but it looks amazing!
It was on sale but went off and a blue one was on sale, so ordered that one. The green one was what came! Yay team 😃😁! We got PJ s at Walmart ( I got Hello Kitty of course!)
Still saving to move.
Kat our granddaughters BD is coming up and going to send her $ then next month is our Doms birthday 🎂. She's going to be 21 and 13 for him!
She stays in touch with us and always asks for our advice 😀 and listens! Not like our daughters. One of mine hasn't spoken to me in five years. Since my other grandson took his life at 20.
It seems all the good we taught our kids, jumped a generation.
The grandkids got it!
One made sure the weed fairy came to see us, when nobody else could or wanted to.

That's a big help and blessing with the pain and challenges.
I've been thinking about our lives and we've been talking about different things we've been through.
All these will become stories probably told in viggies as I call em!

Vignettes

I started taking notes 🎶 about times in Oregon,south Carolina, Georgia, New Orleans, CA and New York.

We always wanted to buy a house and stay somewhere forever. The economy and job market changed over the years and we had to move where it was viable, until it wasn't...
We had a lot of strange things happen like UFOs 👽 and I'm not kidding.
We had a normal life with the kids and holidays and going places. Then the landlord sold the building or jobs changed.

And boom time to plan a move again and it makes it harder to write ✍️ that story or whatever until you settle down again.

We've been through so much and the past 3 years on our own finally but dealing with our issues. Her vision problems and my everythings!

I'm praying 🙏 things will come together for us. My ulcers seem to be getting better 😜😉!
I had an Amy organic India frozen lunch today! Man I missed eating them with rice, veggies and curry with cheese! I had some apple sauce too! Been eating a lot of granola as cereal and snacks and added wheat germ. Love peanut 🥜 butter the creamy type!

So it's 9 PM and time to play my games. I'm glad I was able to add my gift cards and get the guitar! In time I'll get a harmonica holder, so I can play both.
I've been praying for my friends here that haven't been feeling good either. I miss y'all and hope you have a blessed weekend 🌹 ❤️ 😘 😻😸🐾🎶💐👍📿
Bye 👋 for now
