Our last day on Navajoland. Last night I didn’t take gabapentin and could sleep though the night without waking up in the middle of night.  This trip made me my nerve pain drastically improved.

After we safely came back home and were unloading our items from the car, my husband put the hummock bag on the middle of the hall way. It was in the way, so I carried the bag and moved it to the side. Then I realized how strong I got. On the departure day, which was just 4 days ago, I could not lift the hammock bag by myself. It was too heavy for me. But now I can lift it without thinking its weight. I mentioned it to my husband and daughter. They were happy for my improvement.

We woke up at 7 a.m. When my mom-in-law brought sandwiches for our breakfast, she told us she had been suffering from migraine. We were planning to go to the flea market. My husband thought my mom-in-law would stay behind to rest, but she said she really wanted to go with us. Yesterday was sunny with clear sky, but this morning the sky was covered by snow clouds with low temperature. This kind of weather make people to have migraine and feel sick.

By 9 a.m., my mom-in-law looked much better. She said the pain reliever medication has been kicking in. She said she would spend most of days all by herself and so, she really wanted to go with us.

Our first stop was the local church that my mom-in-law’s sister goes. They had a valentine event and there were many vendors selling their handmade crafts. I wanted to purchase one Navajo’s traditional three-tiered skirt. It was $80. I should have bought it but hesitated. I still have the bad habit that I don’t buy an item when it comes to an expensive price. My daughter, on the other hand, doesn’t have any bad habit like I do. Whenever she meets an item, she does not check the price but buys it.

Our next stop was the flea market. My daughter found lots of items that caught her eyes and purchased all of them. I really respect her habit that she doesn’t hesitate to purchase based on price. I left my parents’ house at the age of 22, and since then, I had supported myself for the living cost. I needed to constantly think about all the living cost, so that I cannot freely purchase any items without taking a look of a price. I want to switch my bad habit to my daughter’s one, to purchase anything without checking a price.  

At flea market, my husband saw his old friend. They went to the same boarding school during the middle school days.   

We slept in until 9 a.m. After breakfast, we all went to the house up on the hill. My mom-in-law is seriously planning to move in to this house by this coming winter. She said the main reason is the current house gets too cold in the winter time. But my husband and I think the true reason is that she wants to live in a new environment. The current house has my dad-in-law’s energy everywhere and that makes her feel sad and lonely.

There is one house build with bricks next to the house. My dad-in-law had been building this house for years. My mom-in-law wants to give this house to my daughter. When this house is completed building, it will be a nice and spacious house for my daughter and her future family.

After that, we all went to the zoo and museum in Window Rock to take a walk. After that, we cooked out beef steak and enjoyed the peaceful night.

During dinner, my mom-in-law seriously expressed her strong desire, which she wants us to move back to Navajoland as soon as possible. My husband told her it is really up to the job opportunity. We cannot move back without job. I believe when the right timing has come, my husband will be guided to the right job opportunity, which I hope it will be remote job so that he can work from home.

Last night I only took 1/3 of 1 pill of gabapentin, but I could sleep very well without waking up in the middle of the night.

In my dream, I communicated with my Higer self. She told me as I calmed myself down and spend time peacefully, the outer environments including people and events get calmer. Everything is a mirror of my mind. If I keep worrying about the lawsuit, it will stay like that. But, when I believe in that I am doing the right thing, the results of the lawsuit will also become preferable one for me by reflecting my mind. When I spend my days peacefully without worrying about the lawsuit or my sibling, the distance between my sibling and I will be separated and he won’t be able to bother me anymore. It was a really nice message and I needed the reminder. It helped greatly.

I woke up at 6 a.m. and cooked our lunch. I made some rice balls for me and baked homemade pizzas for my husband and daughter.

My family and I left home in the early morning headed to Navajoland. It has been 6 months since our last visit. I’ve been doing well to deal with the pain recently.

In the evening around 6 p.m., we safely arrived at my mom-in-law’s house. She looked so happy to see us again. We enjoyed the dinner together.

In the morning, a couple of items were delivered. The first box was my sneaker that I ordered online. The size was mismatched with right and left. I called the customer support and they gave me a refund of the sneaker. The second box was a pair of boots that I ordered online. The actual boots were very nice and comfortable to wear. I liked the boots. I didn’t recognize the third box. It was addressed to my husband. My husband was in the office and told me to go ahead to open the box. It was a collar lily plant that was ordered by my husband’s supervisor. It was an offering flower for my late brother-in-law. We appreciate the supervisor for his kindness.

I have one client asked me to help him to purchase an annuity. It has been one year since my last business. I need to refresh my memory about the application process. I am happy to get back to my business. When I purchased my annuity, the initial bonus was only 4%. After 4 years have passed, and now the same company offers the initial bonus of 12%. I was amazed.

My husband’s work shift was changed. He started working one hour earlier than before. It was all in all beneficial for him, because he can come back 1 hour earlier than before to rest the night.

I went to the mall with my daughter and purchased two pairs of shoes. My old shoes were all tight on the sides and hurt the nerve. The new shoes are my usual size but wide size. I like the new shoes with wide in size. I never purchased shoes with the wide size or with arch fit. They are expensive and never in sale, but they worth to reduce my nerve pain.

It was the Day-2 for taking half amount of gabapentin. I could sleep without any issues. I woke up once in the middle of the night, but could go back to sleep within a couple of minutes.

In the evening, my family and I went to the camping store and purchased a hammock with stand. My daughter wanted to have it for a long time, which I didn’t know that. She naturally made her long-term dream come true.

I talked with the monthly mansion company in Japan. I was so happy that one property that I wanted to have a one-month contract with them was available and we could have the contract.

When I report it to my Japanese friend, she said she recently visited one of the shrines and asked about my health and the monthly mansion. She mentioned the shrine name which was familiar with me. It was one of my late mom’s favorite shrines. What a nice synchronicity. Thank you Kojin-san.
I did a home sauna for detoxing.

Since last night, I started taking a half of 1 pill of gabapentin. It is a vegetable capsule and easy to open it. I put half amount into water and took it. Even though it was a half amount, I could sleep without any issues.
In the afternoon, I received a phone call from the technician and owner of the biofeedback system. He first thought my laptop only needed to exchange a fan. But after he exchanged a fan, my laptop still doesn’t work. So, he informed me that he would need to exchange a motherboard and it would cost $600. It was not a good news, but I can feel his honest and sincere attitude toward me. So, I approved the repair fee and told him he can go ahead to proceed the exchange.

My family and I were planning to go toa mine tour in Apache junction for the school in-person event. We reserved a hotel close to the event venue, but it was located 4 hours away from our house. Both of my husband and daughter kindly suggested me to give up the school event this time so that I can rest up my body. I appreciate their kind proposal and decided to cancel the trip. I will save up my body energy for the upcoming trip to Navajoland.
