We have a conversation last week that was too important for him.
Too happy about that because for me was something usual.

I am grateful that my husband and I were in a position to help our grown kids with financial support this year. We helped them out (a lot).
It was nice.

I gave Mose a treatment yesterday pro bono. He and his wife are on a fixed income and both have health challenges. He responded to the treatment profoundly, really plugged in to the energy and he had a transcendent experience. He went from completely skeptical to completely sold. Then he thanked me for being a warm and generous person.
It's hard to reconcile when people tell me that but I didn't try and shrug it off either. I feel very fortunate.

I use to feel grateful of the local police. I use to want to be a cop but today things have gotten to the point I stopped donating to the local police. They don't help at all. Especially with my issue of people harassing me while driving. Some are even cops.
These actions don't benefit me and I'm seriously disappointed in the police today. At least my hubby believes me.

Aly Ward has a podcast called "Ologies".
I learned about this project from her podcast, which entertains, enlightens, & inspires me.

The neighbor across the street flagged us down again and snipped some plump grapes fresh off the vines draping their house to give to us. And she hollered over to her husband ("Nonno! The little one is here, come quick") who hobbled outside slowly with his walker, to greet us and give our kiddo another box of candy. It was absolutely delightful.
It was wholesome af and I will remember this forever.

After dinner, the rain began again in a gentle drizzle and we decided to jump into the pool. Quickly got the toddler dressed and went in. I actually jumped in, which I haven't done in decades and the cold water was a refreshing shock that numbed my hands for a bit. We swam and played in the rain, and I floated on my back in rhe water watching the clouds roil and ebb overhead.
It was a sensory pleasure of being alive: the shock of plunging into cold water, the patter of rain and the fresh air and gazing at the sunset clouds overhead.

A then-odd but now-amusing experience at the marketplace yesterday morning. I was separated from the husband and toddler for a bit and wandered around looking for them, loaded with the diaper backpack, and a loaf of bread and bag of tomatoes I just bought. This Indian guy tries to flag me down and I walk away pretending not to notice but he is persistent. Eventually catches up to me at the end of the market and through broken back and forth in patchy English he says he's been living in croatia for four years and rarely sees Indians. Then the predictable part I saw coming about how he's looking for Indian girls (to marry I presume) and he asks if I'm here with family. I'm polite but short throughout the interaction and say nah, here with my husband and baby and this dude says oh! Sorry sorry and scurried away. I laugh about it later with my husband who says "I still got it" lmao
Listen, as much as I am a feminist against gendered objectification/commodification, gotta admit it was a tiny confidence boost that my saggy, tired, mother-of-a-toddler self was noticed. Oh I feel gross writing this, DEFINITELY going to bring it up in therapy. #poor self-esteem #honestgratitudethough

The suffocating 90+ degree heat finally broke into steady rain yesterday morning, bringing a cool gentle breeze. When we opened the door, we were enveloped by the aroma of rosemary which was rising from the plants near the entryway.
The woody, ancient scent of rosemary was uplifting and a marvel of nature we don't get back home.

I was able to fall back on a 401k plan to take a hardship loan.
This benefited us because we were now able to catch up on past due bills plus have deposit money for our move soon.

My cousin is a realtor. She hooked me up with a finance manager with a mortgage company which offers a free application.
We were benefited because we saved money on an application fee; we have help getting approved; we have the starting info to purchasing a home of our own.

CR tolk a Sunday paper to a specific customer whom I had missed.
I no longer had to make the trip myself, which I was out of my way.

I found kitten attracting cat litter on chewy.com.
This benefited me because it helped stop the kitten going potty anywhere in the house.

The nurse lady from the vet told me my kitten has tiny legs so I should have a lower litter box and place in her area, not far away.
Her thoughts actually worked. It benefited us because the kitten started using the litter box.

I'm teaching undergrads for the first time this semester and was worried about finding coverage for next week since I'll be away. The head professor took care of it, and was very kind and supportive.
I can enjoy my vacation worry free and begin my first teaching assignment without stress or guilt.

I have the enormous, rare, precious privilege of going abroad on vacation.
I'm extremely lucky to get to have these experiences.
