Having a new phone and new phone number requires lots of tasks. I spent quite a lot of time dealing with my new phone. The tasks were sending a phone number change request to the banks and business-related offices online, making phone calls to family and friends to inform the new number, and installing apps onto my new phone and inputting the login data on them. Since this transition was from Android to iPhone, I need to get used to new functions. Last time I changed the phone was in 2017, which was 6 years ago. I guess I was much younger than now, and I didn’t feel it tough for the transition. Now I do feel it tough to get used to a new phone. By the evening thankfully, I somewhat completed most of the to-d-list items on the transition.  

At night we made an order a new iPhone for my husband. It will be an easy transition for him because the transition is from iPhone to iPhone, just an upgrade in version.  

All in all, we both are excited about new phone.

My old friend contacted me about the Mexican chilies; Tepin chilis. Her brother in Mexico picked them up and wants to sell to people. We are now old friends to each other. I met her more than 10 years ago at the local library. We found out our daughters were at the same age. Our daughters went to the same school for some years. We never got very close to each other, but still respect each other by having the sacred distance, which I feel comfortable. I appreciate her brother for offering the chilis at the reasonable price.

In the evening at 6 p.m., I attended an online Homeopathy gathering. It was my first time to attend this gathering, but the meeting host recognized me that she thought I joined the meeting last time too. I told her it was my first time this time. The meeting host mentioned it could be déjà vu or something. We both laughed. I was glad to hear because she felt me as a comfortable attendee for her. There were around 15 attendees. Four of them were the professional homeopaths. The meeting host divided the group into small number of people with one homeopath. I met three homeopaths and had an opportunity to get to know them in person. It was a nice idea to get to know each other, as there is no other events for homeopaths and clients to get to know each other prior to a counseling. I had fun especially talking with one of the three homeopaths. She lives very close to my hometown in Japan. After the gathering, we became friends through FB. I look forward to getting to know her more for the future.

In the early morning my new phone was delivered. I don’t know exactly how much time I spent for the setup of the new phone, but I do remember the time when everything was somewhat settled down was around 9 p.m. It is a common sense that younger generation naturally know about the new technology. I can prove it is correct. My husband and daughter didn’t have any issue to deal with my new phone even though they never learned how to use the new technology, they can use them with their intuition. They helped me so much for installing this and that and transferring all the information from my old phone to a new phone.

The local military post had announced the face mask mandate started from November 30^th of last year, and today, they took out the mandate. I am very happy for my husband and his coworkers that they can finally breath normally. I know it is tough to keep wearing a facial mask for 8-10 hours a day. And I am happy for my family that we can breathe normally at the bowling alley on the military post too. I am glad people are now smart enough to know mandate of wearing a facial mask will cause nothing but people’s bad health due to the lacking of oxygen.

Two days straight I had a zoom meeting with my homeopath. Today was a counselling for my daughter. Yesterday we ended up spending more than 10 hours, so we paid attention on not to talk too much on today’s session. We could end our session for 2.5 hours.

Our homeopathy teacher always emphasizes that our job as a homeopath is to listen to our clients. Both of us have our favorite homeopath. He is very popular homeopath and has a good reputation from his clients. He takes only 2 clients a day because he wants to take as much time as possible. Even though normal and majority of homeopaths offer only one hour to their clients, our favorite homeopath offers his time to listen so that it sometimes ends up like 3-4 hours. Most of the times when a client talks about their situation and feelings, they can find the right answers in their own speech. I respect the homeopath for his such kindness and unconditional love to his clients.

I had my second homeopathy counselling. I trust my homeopath so that I can open my heart to her. My first counselling was almost two months ago, and we started our casual conversation to catch up with each other. I reported the detailed information that I had gone while I was waking the prescribed homeopathy remedies. From time to time our topic went off and we enjoyed exchanging the information about our current homeopathy courses. The time flew like a bird. I don’t know why it happened, but we noticed that we kept our conversation for more than 10 hours. It was amazing that I could communicate with somebody without getting bored at all for such long hours. One sad thing though was that her SCIO machine had some types of log-in error and she could not use it to adjust my energy field.

In the morning I went to the dental office for my dental cleaning. My favorite hygienist is under the maternity leave so I had a replacement highest only for today. She was constantly chatting about her private life, mainly about her cats, while she was dealing with my cleaning. I didn’t like it that she talked with her both hands, meaning she often took her hands off from my mouth to express her feeling and talks. My daughter on the other hand likes the hygienist very much. On the way back home, she asked me to keep the same hygienist for the future. I am not going to change my hygienist and would like to stay with my favorite hygienist, but I was happy to hear my daughter had a good time in the dental office while waiting for me.

In the afternoon, I purchased a new phone to replace my current old phone. I have used my current phone since 2017 and now it starts showing issues. I look forward to my new phone to be arrived soon.

I watched the new year’s lecture presented by the homeopathy teacher. At the beginning of the lecture, she shared her resolution of this year. It was 最低の自分になる. When I translate it as is, it says “stay being the terrible you”, but she of course has the deeper meaning from it. She wants us to be the terrible us for expressing your true emotions and wishes. Instead of constantly considering about others and putting your own wishes and true emotions asides, this year we can express our true wishes and follow our gut feelings. I really like her new year’s resolution, and I think I can follow her for that.

She also shared the concept of the Three Metamorphoses story of a camel, a lion, and a child originated by Friedrich Nietzsche, a German philosopher. It was a great reminder for me to stay being honest to my desires.  

In my dream my husband’s late grandma and my late dad-in-law visited me. I remember we had a good conversation but unfortunately I don’t remember the details. I know we were talking about the Navajoland and their culture. I hope I will have the continuous dream tonight.

It is the third day of the new year. We finally had a sunny day with Sun’s warm energy.

I spent my day in studying homeopathy lectures. My daughter enjoyed her day with playing video games and chatting with her cousin.

In the early evening I talked with one of the insurance agent group members. I saw her a couple of times in Zoom seminars but never talked with her in person. I enjoyed getting to know her. We found lots of common things in us. She is a realtor as well as a property manager. While I was listening to her about the housing market, I felt being blessed that we still keep renting the current house. It seems that our owner has been honest and nice to have us as their renter. We also have been honest and nice for them to stay in this house. I will keep sending good prayers to the house owner for being nice to us.
