Meeting with a CPA in America 11/19/2024

I had an online meeting with a CPA who offers his services regarding the tax return in America. It was an orientation Q and A session for 25 minutes for free of charge. The 25 minutes went by so quickly that I could not go through my question. At the end of the meeting, I asked him his service fee. He said his company charges the unbelievably high fee. And he was right. They charge $2,500 for the regular tax return procedure, then the extra service will cost another $1,500 each.  I wish he didn’t belong to the company, instead, working as an independent CPA who charges an affordable fee.

Insurance agent’s tasks 11/18/2024

In my dream my late Navajo dad visited me. My family and mom-in-law and late Navajo dad were having a picnic. It was a warm sunny day. The location was somewhere in the mountain, the nice flat and safe area. I woke up comfortably and successfully woke up naturally before the alarm.

I set my alarm this morning to wake up earlier than usual, because I needed to make a phone call to the insurance company. They are two hours ahead of me. I like to call them in the early morning time, because I know the sooner I call, the nicer the worker take care of me, from my past experiences.

In the afternoon, my daughter and I went to town to check the bedding items for a research.

Helped my client for her life insurance edition 11/17/2024

In the evening at 7 p.m., I had an online meeting with my existing client to help her to increase the face amount. In last month she had a mammography test and the test result came back saying something. She told me the term but I didn’t know it. Even though it was not cancer or tumor, the doctor suggested her to have a surgery and cut some parts off. And as normal, she accepted the doctor’s advice. Now she got scared of the test result and surgery, she wanted to increase the face amount, which is the death benefit. I wanted to mention about the homeopathy or the biofeedback to treat her fear, but I didn’t say anything because I know she would reject any of the alternative treatment easily.  

Mental health 11/15/2024

I gave myself a biofeedback session. I focused mainly on my mental health regarding the dispute with my brother. I really hope he was a normal person who will do the normal thing, that means in this case, to be willing to share our parents’ inheritance equally. But I have to see the reality in front of me. My brother turns to be greedy and evil. He is not normal. Yes, it is sad, but I have to see the reality. I felt soothed when I was in the biofeedback. I felt like I was communicating with my higher self. She listened to me carefully and comforted me, and gave me the best advice, which is to forgive my brother.  

Navajo visit Day-3, Zoo and Museum visit 11/13/2024

We lad a long drive day yesterday, so we decided to take a relaxing day today.

We went to the kids’ clothing assistant office in Window Rock. There, we met a nice female worker. She said the program has not opened it yet, but hopefully someday within this month. Then we went to the zoo and the museum to visit. The sad thing we found was Paul, the turkey, who always greeted us for these several years was not there anymore. All the animals at Navajo zoo were adapted after they retired from the zoon in city and had their old age. I am sure Paul was already pretty old when he came to Navajo zoo. And I am sure Paul was taken good care by the Navajo people and had a peaceful and fun retirement years at the Navajo zoo. Rest in peace Paul. Thank you for greeting us on our every visit. It was a very cold day with low temperature, but the sun was out. It was rare for us to be able to see almost all the animals came out from their cage or backroom. Everybody was enjoying getting the warm sunlight.

Bucky slept with us again. He did good tonight too. He soundly slept without waking us up or anything.

We had a fun day with my mom-in-law and Bucky, and other dogs and cats. It was a typical day in Navajoland.

Navajo visit Day-2, trip to Farmington 11/12/2024

We had the English muffin sandwich that my mom-in-law cooked for us for breakfast. I cannot eat any animal meat. Today’s sandwich was made with only egg and hushed brown, which I liked it. As an animal meat eater/lover, my husband didn’t care it for much though.

After breakfast we headed to Farmington. My mom-in-law wanted us to go there together as it was a long way trip. It took us more than 3 hours in one way. On the way to Farmington, there was a casino called Northern Edge Navajo Casino. It was the right timing for us to visit their restaurant because we just talked about the Navajo traditional foods on our way to Navajoland. We ordered their Navajo Taco and enjoyed it.

We stopped by at Sam’s Club and helped my mom-in-law to shop the bulk and huge items for her dogs and cats, and herself.

At night, Bucky really refused to go back to my mom-in-law’s house. He wanted to sleep with us. We never let him sleep with us because we feared him to pee on the bed. My mom-in-law insisted that Bucky is now smart enough to hold it inside the house and he sleeps through the night. So, we decided to try him out. My daughter was so excited to sleep with Bucky. Sure, he did good all night. He slept through without waking us up in the middle of night. It was cute of him to have a light sound snore from time to time. It was great to wake up the morning with our favorite dog.

Navajo visit Day-1, 11/11/2024

It was a veteran’s day. My husband and daughter went to town to have lunch. I stayed back at home so that I could catch up with the lectures that I missed to attend during the trip to Japan.

In the afternoon around 2 p.m. we headed to Navajoland. The road was wide open for us. Around 9 p.m. we safely arrived there. My mom-in-law and Bucky, and other dogs were all happy for our arrival.
