Totopotomoy map 2026

 



I'm making a map so you can visualize Totopotomoy's "seat." This is a preview. I have to drop everything I am working on at the computer and do winter prep before it gets cold!

Stop Bullying Your Sister

 



My sister has bullied members of our family, including me, her entire life. There is nothing I can do about it but I no longer have to try to keep it a secret to protect my family from the embarrassment. I just don't care to protect her any longer. AND she hides behind fake Christianity, which is really annoying but what can we do? 

How do I cope with my chaotic family? I will be listing my coping mechanisms here. First one is having a cup of tea. This image - the teacup is my Grandma Jean's dish pattern - Virginia Rose. (My Grandpa Oscar was born in Iaeger, West Virginia (WP) originally Virginia of course!)



Belly Breathing with Gyan Mudra is #2

#3 is soothing audio - I don't know how to "meditate" I don't know what it means really. BUT I think that listening to waves, trains, rain, I think they can be the same as meditating? I did discover when I adopted my collie Amon, he is not quite right, he is agitated a lot. I discovered that he loves storytime by one particular reader "Thomas." I researched Thomas and he is a real person. I also found out that Amon loves "A Charlie Brown Christmas" and I do too! I can listen to it over and over and still enjoy it. And it calms me down. What I did is subscribed to YouTube premium and that way I can download all these, no commercials,  and then I just hit play to play them when we go to bed.
