Today I received a package via DHL. It was a package of the homeopathic items that I purchased at the Japanese store on March 23^rd. This time it only took 9 days for all the processes. Considering the fact that a package from Japan could take almost 3 weeks to be delivered, the package of this time was delivered the quickest of my all of past experiences on shipping items from Japan.

In the morning I received a phone call from the man who usually came to our house to switch the heater/cooler. I am glad the property manager changed her mind and decided to send the usual worker to our house. I am thankful that our swamp cooler is now turned on. We will be able to survive the Arizona’s harsh summer.

In the morning a Mexican handy man came to our house to switch from the heater to cooler. Unfortunately, he didn’t understand English and didn’t know the process of switching. I don’t know the exact reason why the property manager sent him to our house. We used to have the usual handy man who is a White young man who is polite and efficient for his job. Since the man didn’t know the switch procedure, he left the house without doing anything. The property manager was not nice enough as usual that she insisted that the man could do it.

I was irritated with the property manager. But on my second thought, I noticed I needed to change my emotion from negative to positive.

There were the steps that I took.

I focused on the great things that the property manager had done to us. I filled myself with appreciations to her. I sent all the good thoughts and smiles to her. Then, I successfully shifted my negative emotion toward the property manager to positive emotion. Then I released my desire to Universe. My desire is that the property manager will respond back to me by changing her mind about the handyman and that she would arrange the handy man to the usual man who used to come to our house. We like this man very much so that he would be able to do his job perfectly. Then I went to bed peacefully, trusting all will be well.

For these past one week I have been working on preparing the garden for this summer. I started taking care of tall weeds inside and outside the garden area. Arizona weeds are very tough and strong that their roots are deep inside of the ground. My entire body has been aching due to the yard work, but I am feeling great for my progress.

My husband and I talked about rolling over his old 401K fund to purchase an annuity product. In order for that purpose, we needed to make a phone call to the investment company. First, the answering machine answered our call and we needed to listen all of their options to select our inquiry. Second, they put us on hold so that we needed to wait 20 minutes to finally a live agent answered the phone. The person sounded nice and polite, unfortunately though, she needed to transfer us to somebody else who could answer our question. The next person did the same thing and transfer us to somebody else. Guess how many people we needed to be transferred? The answer was eight. They transferred to 8 people and every time they put us on-hold line so that we needed to wait every time. then finally, the last person accidentally hung up the phone while my husband was explaining the reason why we made a phone call. I wish this investing bank will change this crazy system to keep transferring the customer over to a new worker. As you know, we have good days and bad days. Today was an unlucky day for us due to this investing bank.

I woke up at 3:30 a.m. and attended the group lesson for palmistry at 4 a.m. today the instructor introduced us about ChatGPT that is an app that AI can answer our questions. To me, it is an extended version of Google, which gathers all the information that was shared through the internet. It can be helpful but also, it contains some risks that the information can be biased. This is just my personal opinion as of now. I might change my impression after I use this app more frequently.

Since I got sick yesterday, I naturally could perform a 24-hour fasting. I waited until afternoon to have something small to eat. I felt great being hungry.

My family and I went to the tourist town. Even though it was only 40 minutes’ drive away from my house, the land energy was completely different from other normal towns.

Our first stop was the farmer’s market. There were many vendors than ever. They were mainly selling their handmade soaps, homegrown vegetables, homemade bread, and other unique items.

Our next stop was the library. Their building was very old with antique items such as some British style Vintage And Antique Radiators. Right after I entered the library, a sharp pain hit my head. As I walked deeper in the library, the pain got worse and worse. I mentioned that to my family and told them to take their time as I would wait for them outside.

When I went outside of the library and sat down on the chair at the balcony, I could not stop my tears coming out. I shed lots of tears. I don’t know exactly the reason. All I knew was the tears were for sadness coming from deep inside of my soul. We were originally planning to walk around the town, eat their gelato, and have dinner at the restaurant, but my headache got worse and worse. I asked my family to cancel our afternoon plan and go back home. After I got back home, I threw up all the way up until my stomach got completely empty. Then I fell asleep crying. I woke up sometime in the evening to take a long warm bath, then went back to sleep. It turned out to be a detox day for me.   

Today I attended the online seminar presented by Consulate General of Japan, Los Angeles. The topic was about the international marriage with an American and the possible troubles and helpful information. I learned lots of new information about domestic violence and new terms such as The Violence Against Women’s Act (VAWA ) and U-visa. Toward the end of the seminar, they shared some information about the non-profit organizations and volunteer groups that Japanese people can consult in Japanese language for free of charge.  

I dyed my hair with henna. Today I used the indigo blue. My daughter joined me and used henna for her very first time. We expected and hoped my hair would turn into dark blue, but unfortunately it didn’t. Still, our hair became soften and moistened, and I still like this product.
