Many things came to a final this month.
Summer vacation!
Kids are finally out of school and no more driving 780 miles these next months-
relief
My mom came to visit us for a month
always a highlight in my year to be with her
the neat thing is I don't have to wait to see her for another 6 mos
( Actually I am seeing her and my whole familia next month)
I am going home to
~ NORWAY ~
in July
It's been 19 years!
Something that has been a big cloud hanging over my head
since the beginning of the year is slowly coming to an end.
I was victim of check fraud.
A local woman and 4 other accomplice had stolen my newly ordered box of checks from my mailbox.
We live in the country so the mailboxes are by the road.
They had helped themselves to all the checks and written out THOUSANDS of dollars
that would have potentially ruined my credit and needless to say drained my account.
If it wasn't for the amazing ladies at the bank that helped refund my money.
There have been numerous sheriffs here at the house
been working with a detective for the past months
I have never felt so violated in my life!
She/they stole my identity- she had several id's with my name- and wrote checks to places locally where I would go shopping and fill gas.
The hard part is that they know where I live- they have my address.
- Worried for my children
no longer do I feel really safe
They have now all been caught with possession of dangerous drugs
and are sitting in jail
I will be subpoenaed this fall to testify in court
Just wrote my statement and sent it off to the judge.
I am scared.
But I have to put my big girl pants on
and see this thru.
But even with this fresh hell
life goes on....
Needed to clear my head and my heart
and nature is just the elixir
Somehow the outdoors makes everything right
a place to breathe and think
In other news....
Jules got his drivers license yesterday!
Can not believe my baby is driving.
I have had so many creative thoughts dancing in my head lately
nothing better than feeling inspired amidst all this turmoil
Craving peace and simplicity
and usually in those moments.....
are when doors open
...and I do see one opening !
"The purpose of our lives is to be happy"
Dalai Lama
love to all
peace out - beansprout!
