25 Jan07 in Pointe Noire home

O.k. I have read some of my writing previously and now I am quite aware of my progress. For example the yoga. I have already established my daily practice for both yoga and meditation and I really feel great about it. I also have the sharper intuition and feel so relaxed about whatever happen. How about going to Kenya with Jaqueline. I really would like to go with her. This is great to be back in my own office again. When I go to Thailand next time , I will give this computer to the monk at Pak Chong. How to do this and when will I go again to Thailand. I know for sure that now we are going stay here for one more year and that we wanted to go to Kenya this year. That is my desire and I want to publish my book or some article in the magazine. What to do now. I can ask Selene or some one to look at my writing. Getting to yoga and coming home. Yes doing yoga practicing yoga for me is like coming home. O.k. what else do I need to give away again now. My husband is not yet convinced that he need some relaxation and some wind down. He is very tired and he work too hard. Need to go for a walk or something right now. If he sense the pressure of both work and being away from home. Yes , I like going home. Look at my sister , her husband call every 2-3 hours to make sure how she is. I have the very nice thing to do in Pak Chong and in Thailand. If he come to Thailand and see some scenery ,it will be great. Fulvia said that it was gloomy for Franklin when was here alone for so many months. I left the beginning of November and come back in January so almost 3 months of absence. I was in Thailand ,the whole month of December and half of January and November. It was the very difficult time for Franklin. I wonder what he did these days. I can definitely call Grazialla again and go with Jaqueline. How about going with Jaqueline. I really feel complete and o.k. with being in Africa. I feel enough for here. What will Fulvia think , I will not be here in 2008 for sure but if we will still be here in the year end of 2007 we will stay in Africa and may be go to Kenya. Yes why not. But it will be better to go only for Franklin and me. May be that might be better. We take vacation both of us Franklin and me only no children and we go sight seeing in Scotland. Franklin use to be in U.K. before and he might like to go back again to see old friends. O.K. I have already eliminate the things that I am sure we will not need. There will still be a lot of things in this room I need to eliminate. Going to the nuns next week we can do a lot of charity. I can go to Tum boon a lot . I am too tired right now and will go around this room trying to throw away or space clear the place. The digital camera can be given away and the normal camera also in the suitcase we will not use it any more. Why keep it for so long. Just like the nourriture pourri in the fridge. O.k. I will give away now and we will be lighter. I remember the house in Bangkok after we gave away some there are a lot more place for new things in our live. Why not do that , I already have the intention. O.K. do it now. Think about the caddy whom I gave the out dated beverage and sauce he told me that it was not good and make me feel guilty. What about the good one. I never take a look. What have I done. I did not look at the date or just give away what can not be used. O.K. still a lot of thing to pack and give away. There are so much in this house. O.K. what do I need to do. I have given away some of the English book to library and will still give away a few more stuff to people who need to use it. O.K. this computer will definitely be in Thailand next time I go. Will Franklin go to Thailand. I love staying here alone right now. No servant no body disturb my serenity. May be I should do yoga one more time. I love doing yoga each day for one hour. I have done so much already the writing and catching up with people. I will again look around and throw away some more stuff.

Today is already 11 March 2007 . We are already the 3rd month of the year. My yoga practice is still fairly regular and my meditation as well. I am going to transfer this journal to my blog in the other HP laptop. It will be quite a challenge because the Hp lap does not have the disket any more. I will need to adapt the other way. I am glad to have a blog though. How about the key. May be I can use the key to do this. O.K. what an advance technology. I want to transfer everything into the HP laptop. My husband just came for tax signature great. He has one more thing less to worry about this year. This year will be the year we file our tax on time or even before it due. We are in March and I have already established my blog and will try to learn how to put picture on it. This computer will soon be with Luang Por at Pak Chong. I have been trying to call Rangrong but no reply. May be next week I can ask Manuela about taking this file to the blog in HP laptop and then I will see next. If I get everything in one computer ,it will be easier for me to work. Now I use the HP laptop to the Siddhayoga meditation CD. That’s remind me that the CD is still in the HP. How long ahd I have this Dell. Since I was with Coldwell banker. I have retired from real estate sales for more than 3 years now.

O.K. tax done, blog done and I just do one editing for the new blog. What now. May be I can try to put this in the key and transfer it to the HP by myself. Put everything in one place. This week end ,I organized the deep freezer in the kitchen. Both the big and small freezer. Also arrange the new fridge and there are still to throw away and my HP laptop has been put to current life style. I only have my current picture taken within the year.
Unlike the web site where my picture is still from the real estate sales days.

We almost finished our time here in Congo. It has been great .The discoveries an dlife style and traveling and it was greta for my kids. I feel more closer to them and they seem to understand my point of view more and know where I come from. They mature a lot and Isabelle just told me today that she made it to the tennis varsity team. Next week she will go for tournament in U.K. It was great. Will we be back for a long time in Danville. Nothing is being done yet fro Valerie. May be she can do some traveling with Athenian.Can she go to Africa with Isabelle for community service. It might be difficult.I want to keep in contact with Mr Damico while he is in South Africa. Hopefully , the kids can visit him during vacation next year.

This month I will finalise the trip for the office to got o Lesio Luna in Brazzaville area. I will do all the booking , coordinating and tickets arrangment. After that I should be able to finalise also the Kenya trip and the where about of the kids this summer. Still not sure about where Benjamin will end up for summer job. The rest of the eyar traveling will be quite something this year as I really hope to go back to Thailand to finish my yoga teacher training and Franklin want to put Picnic in the market. I prefer to let it stay like that with increase rent fro tenant. Hopefully the guy tenant in 711 moved in already and we started to collect rent this month. How about the increase of 713. Hope Cathy get that now or if the tenant move out she can advertise rent increase. How about make that unit into two bed rooms unit or even three. It can be done quite easily, I think. I gather we will live there for a while and sell it. If we sell our main house in Crow Canyon . That is the sure way to have profit. As kids leave we don’t need a big place. Benjamin will start this Fall to rent a place by himself in Arcata. I even think we should buy something for him to manage. The girls will nto be in California. Look like they have their own ideas about their college education. They are not the superficial type of Californian style for sure. We will see what and where Isabelle will go for college this Fall. Her choices has opened up when we find out that she eligible for education in the EU countries with her dad’s heritage and her EU passport. It was great.
