We're not n LA N-E-More (Part X)

       I sure didn't see any of this coming. We are not on the cannabis farm anymore, overall it was a positive experience. I learned the winterization process of the farm & also how to feed, water, harvest & buck the plants. I learned about the licensing system along with the rules & regulations weaved throughout. I met a real live "Karen" & was able to witness her in action. I was able to keep all the trimmings from the plants we bucked & there were hundreds. 

    About two months into our stay we were told that the farm wasn't making as much money as the owner expected this year & that it would be a better financial move if he shut things down until the spring. This was unexpected for us because we were originally told we could stay for a year. The options were to either go back to LA or back to Philly . Of course I didn't want to go back to Philly but going back to Cali with no plan terrified me more. I would rather go back on my own & figure it out that way.

    I already have my Cali ID, EBT card & a doctor I go to, y start all that over? I mean really for what. So we left the Cannabis farm on December 14th. We drove to Portland Oregon so that my husband could runite with his daughter that he hadn't seen in 20yrs. Then we stopped in Arizona so that he could check in on 3 of his nephews. Then we drove to Philly where we checked in on my mom & them. While I hung out with my mom & them, my husband drove 20min over the bridge to New Jersey to check in on his mother & them.

    Now it's Christmas night and we're in Upstate New York visiting my son. Boy what a drive it's been. At least we were able to rest here for three days. Tomorrow we have to drive back to Philly because I have some people to see & some things to wrap up there. I will let you know how that goes & that this would be the first time I have no plan. I am just going to go where ever the wind blows me, let's see what happens. Oh yeah let's add more fuel to the fire my phone broke yesterday & I won't have another one until who knows when. Fight on mighty fighters let nothing keep you down!

We're not in LA N-E-More XII

By Jodie Spartz
     My phone is fixed! It was broke for about two weeks, I kinda broke it myself out of frustration & it was right before Christmas. So that meant no Christmas, New years or any Holiday pics. I was a little sad at first that I couldn't post on social media but after a while I found peace in enjoying activities & not worrying about pictures or footage. I visited my son for Christmas in Upstate NY for two days, Then I went to visit my God mom for a couple days dropped her off some gifts. I went to visit my God children & my God granddaughter that was fun. My God grand daughter is two years old and my God daughter & God son asked her if she wanted to sing head shoulders, knees & toes. She said no but they decided to sing it anyway to see if she would get into it. She didn't & after they finished the song all enthusiastically this little girl with her little baby voice said " Nobody asked for all that!" My husband & I busted out laughing ...

Surviving LA part II

By Jodie Spartz
  As the LA housing search continues...      We found ourselves on the streets & out of money for a couple weeks due to the Beverly Hills swindle & the cost of staying in hotels. On day one on the streets, we both worked a night shift and spent the day sleeping in our storage unit, Day 2 was the Santa Monica/Venice beach night, sleeping in our tent & fighting a serious wind till the morning. On day 3 we fought with the wind again more severe in our tent at the Venice Graffiti walls on the beach & lost. We dramatically packed up fighting the wind the whole way & ended up camping not too far away in Penmar park. The good thing about this was that they had a bathroom available.       The hauk was out too that night it was so cold, I thought I was gonna die from hypothermia. I don't even know how I made it through the night. All I know is that I was not prepared for this! The universe carried me into day 4 & we both again worke...
