Well, the hail that happened last spring caused a fair amount of roof damage. So I got the insurance people to look at it, and then a Scientologist roofer to do the replacement, which he did for exactly the amount of the insurance, which is pretty good of him. Only problem is, I didn't get the full reimbursement from the insurance, so I am in ( Read more... )

September 3. You would have been 48 today. Shocking. But now you will forever be that chubby laughing little toddler, or that pale comatose body lying on a bed, or being manipulated by patterners. Actually, you are likely about 40 years old somewhere now, and that's great ( Read more... )

I've been INTENDING to get an anniversary card in the mail, and lo and behold! Of course it snuck up on me. Well, I hope a better late than never will be ok. Not that I'll get any acknowledgement, but I want to send one anyway.

There is a tab on e the Scientology.org website where one can take a personality test, or request more information. Well and good. I have received a number of requests which are definitely pranks, as I have called and actually contacted the numbers included and they have categorically denied the request.

Although we had a Christmas Party/Recruit Event for the org there in 2019 (the last party Jon and I ever attended together), in the "Dance Hall" I had never seen the place during the day, so after the Walnut Place Neighborhood Association Annual meeting held there on Saturday was over, I took the time to wander around and just gawk at the lovely ( Read more... )

I haven't posted in a while either, mainly because I have been VERY busy. With most of the existing staff in training at Flag or in LA, and a large number of the remainder out on quarantine ( Read more... )

Survived another Thursday! As Jon used to say, "Well, we got through that." With all the top echelon of execs off at Flag, in Florida, being polished up and trained, holding Public Exec Sec, AGAIN, all alone, is like juggling boiled okra. Boy, do we need more staff! Just sayin'.

I pretty much forgot about Mothers Day, till late yesterday evening a friend called to wish me Happy Mothers Day, and I remembered I had intended to send a card to Elizabeth ( Read more... )

I forget all about LJ for literally months on end. I should post regularly, but after a full day at the org, and on Mondays, course till 9:30, I just want to chill; drink a big cup of hot tea, read a book, chat with one of my house mates, play a stupid online game, anything not mentally taxing ( Read more... )

The PSAs for being Cause over the pandemic are worth checking out.  So is the video on "Spread a Smile."  We've been delivering the Brief Breath in Eternity event several times a day, to no more than 9 people at a time, so as to maintain social distancing.

Austin is now on track to be opening as the next Ideal Org.  It's pretty exciting.  When ( Read more... )
