Now I know why people of similar upbringing and backgrounds usually get together and the relationship seems to last longer than those who get together from very different backgrounds.

Has automation gone too far?

 Has automation gone too far? 

Next thing you know we will all be hooked up to feeding tubes, unable
to chew and feed ourselves on our own.


 Is it luck, fate and destiny or is it curiosity, will and determination?
Is everything fixed in stone or is it pliable, flexible and open to opportunity?
Are we stuck in ruts or are we able to adapt, change and mutate?

First thought feeling is "God", second one s "Devil". The first impression is true, the second one is false.

First thought feeling is "God", second one s "Devil". The first impression is true,
the second one is false. 
False beliefs cause misery, sadness, unhappiness and unnecessary strife.
True knowing and belief cause joy, happiness and a peaceful life.

Many years ago I met a woman while I helping clean a friend's house.
She told me this truism: the first thought is god, the second thought (doubt) is the devil.

God and Devil are figures of speech, interpretations of our feelings, our guts
we are all naturally born with and need to pay attention to constantly.  Intuition,
instinct. 

Fighting is resistance against nature and truth. Allowing is peace, cooperation, compliance. The fight and battle ends when I understand what is true.

Ridicule shows ignorance. It is a marked display of not knowing or understanding.
First they ridicule me, mock me, make fun of me. They try to humiliate me with scorn and
skeptical faces. Those people do not understand, don't want to know and are
content in their ignorance and stupid ways.

I have done this and acted this way in the past. I was a child and simply 
mimicking the tragic and hurtful behavior of adults around me who were
also taking on the erroneous beliefs and opinions of other misinformed people.

"You can temporarily control my actions in your presence but you can't control my thoughts."

 "You can temporarily control my actions in your presence but you can't control my thoughts."


This is a realization I had when I was a teenager living at home with my grandparents who
were very "loving" and also very very controlling by nature. 

This knowing, realization, epiphany holds true today and for all time in my life.

The self will, the will of the self,  is indestructible and uncontrollable.

Two weeks ago I taught my 6 year old grandson how to gargle and to quit using huge amounts of toothpaste and leaving globs in the bathroom sink.

 Two weeks ago I taught my 6 year old grandson how to gargle and to quit using huge amounts of toothpaste and leaving globs in the bathroom sink.  A couple of weeks before that I bought him
a kids cup with toothbrush because I wanted him to stop putting his mouth on the bathroom
faucet to get water when he is brushing his teeth. The mouth on a faucet is an
absolute no-no and is like someone drinking out of the main milk or beverage container
and leaving germs, bacteria and who knows what in it, contaminating the entire 
contents of the container.

I do not know where he learned to put his mouth on the faucet or why or who
but that behavior has to stop for the safety of himself and everyone else.

formed in the base of the brain, all of the cells in the body.  Permanent. Stamped.
Engraved into the soul.

Personalities remain the same. People's personas don't change much throughout their life. Animal personalities are the same.

Car Quest Auto Parts 8900 Troost, Kansas City, Missouri

Car Quest Auto Parts
8900 Troost, Kansas City, Missouri

I worked here back in 1995/1996/1997
I was a delivery driver 
Tom had promised me I would be working in the office when he
hired me as a driver but it never happened so I ended up leaving this
job and going to work in the office at Troost Muffler by 63rd or 64th
and Troost in Kansas City, MO

Knowing what I have learned about people especially in the last few years,
I can assume he is the same as he was then around 25 years ago.
He had just gotten married and said his wife wasn't the prettiest but she
was a virgin, I think he said. Important to him, I suppose. If I remember
correctly he was catholic. One of those religious ideas and beliefs about
virgins (and whores).  

He was cunning, shrewd, lied (other people told me about this when I
was hired and I did not believe it until I realized he lied to me then found
out he lied to co workers at the auto parts store, withholding important
information about money being automatically taken out of people's paychecks.
I went into work one day and my co workers were very upset that they had
no check that week. The machine shop guy had tears in his eyes and said
"I have a family to feed".  It hurt me so much to see them upset and crying so
I did something about it. I faxe a one page letter from Tom's office to the main office
in Virginia that said "What kind of a company is this?"
Tom wrote me up for insubordination for
defending my co workers and said if I do anything out of line again he
would fire me. I had enough and got another job working at a repair shop.

Tom WAS a smooth talker, indeed, having the graceful voice of a Libra.
A hard worker, a good salesman, very dependable and insisted that no one
should miss a day's work for any reason (probably due to his upbringing).

I wonder what he has been doing all of these years and what is he doing now.

Suppose I can find out through social media......

found it !  https://www.facebook.com/tom.callahan0

He is married to Denise Ann Callahan Watts, 25 years now.

wow!! My memory is good. That pic of their wedding day is exactly how
I remember him looking.

Donnell or Donell Smith, parts counter, Capricorn. About 10 years older than me.
Ran into Donnell at HyVee in Raytown, MO on 350 Hwy about a year ago back
in 2019. Super nice guy. 

 I will never be finished doing anything. Nothing seems to be over and done with.

I wanted to write a book or books but it has come down to posting on this blog
that is probably only read by me. 

I sell FREE dreams. Free to all. Just grab them. They are yours.

 I sell FREE dreams. Free to all. Just grab them. They are yours.

 He thinks he IS the creator, the source of all things. He thinks he is GOD. He 
believes he is in control of all things yet he cannot control himself. 

He wants to believe he is the controller, the dictator, the one who has the last 
word on everything.

He thinks he is in control. He is afraid.
He is scared. He is fearful, worried, tense and anxious.
He expects instant results with everything. 
He lacks understanding and patience.

He is forceful, mean and hateful.
He lacks appreciation of the tiniest things in life.

He takes upon the responsibility and the credit for all things that happen
naturally. 
He fails to understand the source energy that is ALL.
He is part of this universal force, flowing with it like a tiny creature
in this ocean of life and death. 

He believes material things and money are the most important things in life.
He always asks How much did that cost (money wise) about any and every thing
instead of How does that make you feel? 

He is frequently miserable, upset, pissed off, ticked off, aggravated, unhappy,
resentful, vengeful. 
He won't allow himself the feeling of pure joy in the little things like
breath, sunshine, scenery, nature.

He questions the validity of all things and requires "Proof", "evidence"
that any particular thing is real and that it is going to Pay off, that is is
"worth the effort", that it is "valuable"

He often views time, people and things as a "waste of his time"

He watches movies and doesn't understand the meaning, the moral,
the story, the truth, the point. He really doesn't understand what is going on.

He frequently says "I don't understand", "I can't understand", "I don't believe it"
"That's crazy", "We are in BIG trouble", "That's a bunch of crap"

He is worried about things completely OUT OF HIS CONTROL like the weather,
for instance and does not concern himself about things he CAN control
regarding his behavior. He LOOKS at others constantly judging them
and doesn't look at himself and judge his own feelings, thoughts, actions, words.
He thinks he knows what other people, literally everybody, SHOULD BE DOING
and often feels like he really doesn't know what to DO with himself.

He is lost. He doesn't want to be found or found out. 

He is a skeptic/sceptic. 

He searches for perfection in others, always looking for that perfert girl,
the perfect woman yet does not attempt to work on himself and
his attitude.  He shows his
nastiest and most hateful self to the very woman he is married to and 
supposed to love. He shows his best and better and nice personality to
the outer world, to strangers, to neighbors, co workers, acquaintances
and anyone and everyone except to the one he lives with. 
He falsely believes he is better than everyone else, smarter, more 
intelligent and capable. His ego is out of this world yet down deep
inside he feels incapable, lacking, inferior, worthless and stupid.
Yes, he really feels like a total stupid idiot most of the time and that is 
why he attempts to make his wife woman feels just as stupid as he feels.

God forbid that he praise his wife, worship her and truly love her and
appreciate anything about her or put her on a pedastal. No, he must try to
shove her down under his cloddy feet dressed in heavy boots that sound
like Frankenstein when he tramps through the house stomping up and
down the stairs noisily. 




I am self driven. I am self propelled. Nature gave me the guts I was born with.

I am self driven. I am self propelled. Nature gave me the guts I was born with.
I know what I need. I know what I want. 
I don't need anyone to tell me how I feel, what I need and what I want.

I find this to be true of all of the life forms I have witnessed during my life.
We know what we need. We know what we like. Simple as that.



The flea in the jar story.

The flea in the jar story.
Now I know I am out of the jar.
I am free to jump around anywhere I want, mentally, emotionally and
physically.

A flea put into a jar with a lid eventually quits trying to jump out of the jar
after it keeps experiencing hitting its head on the lid of the jar.

Human beings put tight lids onto jars and try to keep people, pets
and other life forms into containers, restricting their freedom and growth.

This has to be one of the worst crimes of nature inflicted by humans upon 
other humans and creatures.


I've been operating at a small fraction of my potential.

I've been operating at a small fraction of my potential. 

Restrictions, limiting belief systems of others, false beliefs I had taken 
upon myself have blocked me like a cork in a bottle, containing
and holding my desires until they are ready to explode.

Now that I am aware of this fact, I fully realize this truth
there is no stopping my spirit from achieving all that I want to experience.

 Some people are like a great big hiccup.

 My entire life has been about being and remaining myself. Following my inner direction
amongst some people who try to force me to be someone I am not.

 Thank you my friend, John, for explaining this thing about porn
and how butts are a real turn on. He was talking about thongs he
has seen and how they show the whole butt. I told him I have a
bikini thong and he nearly melted and collapsed on the floor, shaking.
At 74 years old he is.

He said a guy watches this stuff because maybe there are things
his woman/wife doesn't want to do and it fulfills his fantasies.
He still loves his wife even though he watches this stuff.
(Funny,, I don't watch porn and have felt totally unloved
and hated and unappreciated by men in my life who watch this stuff)


I told him my husband has instructed me I can't wear this thong
bikini out of the house.  He gets angry, upset, even violent
if I wear anything exposing my bottom. He has become angry
many many times when I go outside and he thinks anyone can
see my ass. If the neighbors see that, they will want it.
You will have every dog in the neighborhood chasing you.
Back in the summer of 2007 or 8 I came home
wearing cut off jean shorts after painting a house and he
blew up at me.. I didn't know why
because he said "You can see your butt cheeks hanging 
out of those shorts when you bend over". and the man who owned the house
who was a friend of Tom Tacy was begging me to marry him
standing out in the yard in front of his house.

 I didn't understand. I am still trying to figure this out.

And my whole life I was told that being smart with brains matters most
I have never been appreciated for having brains in my head.
Getting a job has always been a joke.
They don't care about brains in the head in the skull.
They only care about ass cheeks.
And how round they are.



Envy is useless.

Cats and dogs are carnivores.

Cats and dogs are carnivores. 
Why do people feed them cereal and grains and rice and vegetables?

What (common) sense does this make?

Who started this trend of feeding carnivores food they wouldn't
eat in the wild?

Someone out to make a lot (a ton) of money using cheap stuff to feed the animals.

 Sleeping Beauty woke up today and was her usual Snow White Cinderella.


She (I) got down on my hands and knees and cleaned the kitchen floor and stairs
after I swept them with a broom sprayed with a mix of water and tide laundry soap.

She put all of her pillows and huge white Valentine Teddy Bear in the clothes dryer
to kill whatever parasites are lurking in the fibers and stuffing/material.

She is washing her sheets, pillow cases and her husband's dirty blue jeans.
He works very hard on many things and gets real dirty/filthy. The last few days
he has been working on the brakes on a friend of ours car. Our friends
Mike and Debbie/Debra.

She vacuumed the oriental rug in the living room, the master bedroom,
middle bedroom and hallway.

She is going to wipe down the kitchen cabinets and wood work with some
furniture polish and lemon oil.

She has been fasting, drinking only water and hot tea,
since last night's nice and wonderful dinner she cooked. 
She was up at 10 am, went to the bathroom and went back to sleep until 1:00 pm.
She woke up because she had to go (use the rest room) and soon became 
active cleaning up this house.

There are many different things to eat in the refrigerator that she made
and the pantry and freezers are well stocked because she has spent much
time planning grocery lists and shopping so we have plenty of variety.
She is not hungry yet and will wait until the pangs hit so her system
has time to activate hunger and tell her what she is hungry for.
She doesn't know what her husband will be hungry for and it is okay
because she knows that we have whatever he wants... unless it is fast food
like Taco Bell, one of his favorites, or Subway, Arby's, Church's Chicken,
Pizza at Minsky's or Domino's, Big T's Barbecue BBQ (he like beef and ham;
I like beef and pork)

so I did it myself. 

Broiled steak, crab legs, shrimp in the shell, baked breaded fish for him,
baked potato, corn on the cob, salad and a dinner roll 

When I was a child I only had to walk a few blocks to school regardless of where I lived. Thanks to my parents and grandparents. Maybe I should follow suit and walk a few blocks to work from where I live now.

Truepeoplesearch a very good website

 It's not that I am not convincing enough, it is that he has a preconceived notion
that women are stupid. People are stupid, people are idiots.
This is a belief system he grew up with in his family. 

If I say it, buck it. Trash it. He has to hear the same thing from someone
else before he will take action. 

 Yesterday he finally said he is getting rid of this old rotten carpet in this house.
I said, "Thank God or whatever it is. Thank the energy of the universes for
finally getting rid of nasty carpet."

In the meantime it is still here. Over 50 years old. Full of who knows what
mold, fungus, mildew, bacteria, bugs, fleas. I have been trying to get rid of
this old rotten carpet for many years, at least 20. I think it is the source
of illness here.

Every day is a holiday.

Every day is Thanksgiving.

Every day is Christmas.

 Why have I always referred to females/women as lady?
Maybe my mom taught me that. 

Just read some letters from my mom from the 1980's and 90's. Heart wrenching
tears. 
We used to hand write letters to each other. I wrote letters to a lot of people.
These few letters are all I have left. 
I have a Christmas card from 1996 from my grandma Sarah
and a letter she hand wrote to me. 
Tears to my eyes and joy to my heart from memories.
I can cry and be happy at the same time 

Stuff is nice to have. People make you happy. People make your life. Pet animals make your life.

Cedarcide. Pest control naturally.

Cedarcide. Pest control naturally. A nice lady at Walmart 117th & Metcalf in
Overland Park, Kansas told me
about this last night. She works for Spectrum and had a display in the aisle at Walmart.

I showed her a flea comb I was buying and she told me about this wonderful product
line. She said she uses this to control fleas and bugs and she said she has
marigolds surrounding her garden.  Marigolds are a natural bug repellent.
Told her I managed to have 2 marigold plants around my garden this year.

Wish I would have asked her name. 


I have the same interests since I was a child, a teenager and young adult. I see that this is true for many other people I know.

 Goal. Get rid of my stuff. He hates everything about me.  He has 
constantly complained, been irritated about so many things.
I remember over 20 years ago when I got a coffee maker
and put it in the kitchen.  I paid ten dollars for it.
He badgered me relentlessly until I took it back
in order to make him happy.
He couldn't stand the sound of it or the smell of it.

so I will get rid of my things taking up his space.
He wants the whole house to himself.


 I see and understand that we have the same interests that we had as
children, teenagers and young adults. 
I am 59 years old biologically and maintain the same interests I had
and so does every other person I have known or met. 

 She, daughter in law, said addictions happen because of pain. Any kind of pain.
So true. I understand why. 

Emotional, physical, mental. Total body and soul feeling of pain. Pain is something we
avoid. 
Simple explanation for any kind of addict, addiction, aholic.
Reminds me of what my brother Darryl said "Everyone is addicted to something".
To this day I see this truth in anyone I know and anyone I don't know personally.

Darryl died on May 13, 1998. Born on May 16, 1964. He was 33 years old.

 If you were me then you would do what I have done. You would feel
what I feel. All that I have felt throughout my life. But, you are you, not me.
You have your own experiences and I have mine. So you will do what you do.

Yesterday went to where used to live 525 stacey drive

Yesterday went to where used to live 525 stacey drive

belton, missouri

It is vacant. Up for sale.

Memories are abundant.

 I have a gazillion memories. Wished for many years that memories in human brains could be on a recorded device and implanted into others so they can experience the same feelings.

 The Oak Park Mall incident. A bad experience.
We visited Oak Park Mall in Kansas.
Went to several shops viewing things and enjoyed the scented
candles and perfumes and other things. 
The carousel. How much does that cost? We are NOT going on
that. I am not going to pay for that. 3 dollars. 
The massage chair. Oh, I put a dollar in, it hurt my back so
he sat on it and said he liked it. So maybe he will come back
one day and spend five dollars and get a beating back massage
in one of those chairs.

End of evening we are walking. I hear upbeat music and follow it
because I want to hear it. It's dancing music and I want to know
that song. A man was at the booth that was playing the music.
I said I love that music what is it? And I started to move my body a little.
A man operating the booth said I want to show you something
and asked me to sit in a chair.
HE stood outside of this watching. Didn't say much to the man.
Blasted his vile insults and threats to me after we are out of 
the public eye.

The man put something on my face, my hands and said this
cleans your skin. How does it feel? It is soft. Coconut oil
and sea salt. Yes, that made my skin feel so good.

End: this product costs 300 dollars. 
He becomes irate: why did you go there.
You were flirting with that guy.
You can't afford that.
I am not buying that. You don't need that.

I followed my natural instincts. He is angry. 

end of evening: he says I will buy you something to eat
(but I won't buy anything else for you)
yet I am not hungry. I already ate at home before we
left because I know how this food/ hunger thing works.



 The pickle jar incident. Came home from grocery store with many bags of food.
One plastic bag had a tear and a jar of pickles hit the floor. 
He went into a tyrant's rage for several hours.  
I said I would clean it up.  Calmly.
He proceeds to character assasinate me and clean the floor, telling
me I can't clean the right way.

He said that I knew that it was going to happen. I wasn't paying attention.
I should have known.

He ruined Thanksgiving. I made a big dinner. Started on Wednesday.

 He ruined Thanksgiving. I made a big dinner. Started on Wednesday. 

 I threw away all of the old checkbooks and registers yesterday. Threw away
the wage earnings statements.  29 years of
accounting showing what I put in the bank, the bills I paid, the groceries, gas
and all that I bought. 
I haven't made much especially in the last 12 years due to chronic
physical health problems, a direct result of stress induced by him.
None of it matters because all he has ever said to me is that I don't work,
I don't do anything,
don't pay the bills, and used to say "You spend ALL of your money on
beer and cigarettes".
He won't look at any record of anything I have.
Doesn't recognize that I do anything. 
In his mind he does everything. He is the most important.
He takes over all and does whatever he wants and I have no
right to my personal preferences

Love is what I wanted to share. Lust is what I ended up getting.

Many rich and famous women have endured suffering: verbal, emotional
and physical abuse from their malignant narcissist partner. Tina Turner,
married to Ike, is just one example. 
She is natural, beautiful, sweet, innocent, talented, loving, giving
and courageous. 

Ignore your wife and she will go away. The same rule applies to your teeth or anything else.

What does "at my wits end" mean? I am there. Wits and patience have met.

at wit's end

at (one's) wits' end

In a state of distress because one has no more patience or mental stamina, often after having dealt with some kind of problem or difficult situation.

The baby's been crying for hours, and I'm at my wits' end!

I'm already at my wits' end, so if this train gets delayed too, I'm going to scream.

Getting rid of trash and nonselling items

Spent a few hours today getting trash and nonselling items ready to take away tomorrow.
Books, vhs tapes, cds, vinyl records. 
Last week I took clothing and other miscellaneous things to the thrift store.
Feeling a little better every day.

it's a miracle I'm still alive
