We can’t do everything, and we can’t be everything to everyone, can we? Everyone knows that.

I used to have quite a reclusive life. I mean when I lived at the house set back on an acre and filled with hundreds of trees, I was surrounded with peace, and pretty much I worked on Heavenletters™ in peace and quiet. I wasn’t pulled in lots of directions. Once in a while, a trip to Iowa City, and, of course, grocery-shopping. Unless I went out, pretty much I was in my isolated world. The world did not come in on me.  I had serenity. No one dropped in on me. It just didn’t happen. (more…)

When it comes to deleting spam, I am perfect. Not one of those rascals gets away with anything anymore. I pounce on them. “Aha,I’ve got you!” I am a dedicated weeder of spam.

On the morning of the day I write this blog entry, there was an inspection of every apartment in the complex where I now live.

It’s true. I think I really was a hoarder. I didn’t see that I was. Someone or something had to point it out to me.

Yesterday, Sunday, I did all the basic morning Heavenletter™ responsibilities — writing down the Heavenletter, proofing another one, entering quotes on Twitter. I didn’t take care of a few things I really should have and wanted to — writing to two dear people who offered to help Heaven Admin with HTML, getting long-overdue Heaven News ready, and a few other major things like that.

I had made up my mind that I would take a day off from the computer and straighten out my room etc. and some other things that I have been neglecting in favor of emails. (more…)

Wouldn’t you know that I would get the Western Room at Paul’s house! Not what either you or I would expect! (more…)

I swear, Ginger Nelson must have wings! Later you will see a photo of Ginger.

But first, Allison, a gift from Ginger. How would you feel if you were frantically in the middle of cleaning the house you are moving from, and someone comes to your door and says, “Ginger paid for two hours of my time to help you clean.”

There is no other explanation but that real-live human beings are angels. Certain occasions really bring out the angelness in people. Moving seems to be one of them.

Some of these angels you are already familiar with, and some are new.

Here’s a list:

Dear Friends,

During the move, angel after angel appeared. I can’t wait to tell you all about it.

To give you a quick update now, I am living in new place. I have a room in a mansion on the first floor, and Heaven Admin has a room on the second floor, and I love it! Will do a blog with details and photos all about everything and everybody as soon as I can.

703 East Burlington is where Godwriting™ started and where my whole life took on a new hue. Now I am living on West Burlington. Both east and west are wonderful! (more…)
