Many Thanks

Hi.

It's been a while, yes?  Oh I've been hanging around, reading your blogs and peeking at your flickr streams.  I just haven't had much to say lately. 

But now I'm back, and the first thing I'd like to say is: THANK YOU.

Yes.  To all of you.  Your overwhelming support has been so much appreciated during this difficult transition.  Your comments, heartfelt e-mails and cards, your flowers, gifts, plants all meant so much to me and my family during our difficult time.

****

In the morning when we wake up, as per our newly formed ritual, I carry Kate to the living room to look at a photo of my father.  And as if on cue, she undoubtedly points to it and shouts his name.  Usually his name is a burst of happiness from her mouth, and part of me feels relieved by her recognition.  Yes. She still remembers him.  Yes.  He's still fresh in her mind.

Alison and Henry are starting to comprehend his physical absence from our lives.  Usually a memory will trigger or a thought will pop into their minds, and then a moment of sadness washes over them.  Today as we were getting ready for bed, Alison turned to me and said softly, "Mama, I didn't want Buppa to die."

So yes.  Sadness does creep into our lives on a daily basis, and it comes at surprising times, like sudden pangs of emotion.  But most of the time, we live in our many moments of happiness together as a family.  We've made it this far, and I know, as so many of you have shared, life does go on.  We're know that now.

Thank you again for everything.

Another clue Lowe's is the good one::::Katrina cottage plans.

http://www.lowes.com/lowes/lkn?action=productList&Ntt=plans&Ntk=i_products&category=Katrina%20Cottage%20Plans&N=0+5002245

In this era of preditory developers building massive new homes (ie SUVs) it is quite refreshing to see Lowe's promote modest single family structures.
Looking in Denver these are the kinds of homes I am looking at. To move into a brand new structure would be key, especially in Denver:::::Full insulation, no dreaded leakage leading to high heating bills. No ghosts and no history.
As with all things::::Redwhite&blue IS BAD FOR YOU!!!! Much like some Walmarts, some Lowe's stores are redwhite&blue color scheme:::Assume its a clue that these towns are disfavored and it would be wise to GET THE FUCK OUT!!!
Bet that Oldsmobile was the only good American auto manufacturer left and now they're gone.

The 80s era of M&A and integration with/controlling interest by evil entities has eliminated good from the marketplace.
In this era of Manifest Destiny positioning the gods have the preditory disfavored steal from the good disfavored::::
1. Microsoft stole Windows from Apple Computer/SteveJobs/Wozniac
2. Alexander Graham Bell stole the telephone from Elisha Grey
3. Waffle House's business model was stolen by many entities who copied the style and stole market share. HOLDING BACK THE COFFEE IS A TACTIC THE GODS USE TO SEND THE DISFAVORED ELSEWHERE and a clue they are good::::Coffee is bad for you.
4.
5.
…
499.
500.

When it comes to Walmart they really didn't expereince a M&A phase that I'm aware of, so expect the redwhite&blue clue to only be in effect in the South:::All Walmarts in California are evil. Howevery, they said Costco/PriceClub merger paved the way for the presence of Sam'sClub on the WestCoast, and they share that Sam'sClub is good, but again that might only be here in the west where they compete with evil Costco.
I'd like to remind people Sam'sClub's presence is in the InlandEmpire while Costco does business in WestLA.
As far as NorthernCalifornia goes Concord is the only BayArea Sam'sClub location, and for a reason:::SanFranciscoBayArea is The Beast, geographic clue sent as Manifest Destiny sculpted the shoreline.
Sam'sClub is more expensive than Walmart for a reason.

None of this is important. In the end they are ALL BrainLessCloneHosts and they will all be used in the same way:::To prey on the disfavored.
The M&A/evil acquisition of controlling interest allows the gods to justify the elimination of this so-called "help", none of which ever existed. Any perception otherwise was deceptive, used as corruptors, much like the Presidents of the United States streets example.
The Italian boot and Scandanavian penis pissing on Europe as the Vikings did both prove the positioning that is Manifest Destiny is all a scam.
My advice is understand the Amish clue and live simply and strive for purity.
