Good day Cage friends,
I cant even begin to describe the last 2 weeks, the last 2 months, the last 4 years.
I have not been particularly active here inside the community. I have been busy with work and life and having Mikayla at home finally. It has been insane. Yet each moment I delay writing a blog I just have so much more to add that it becomes daunting.
Inside the last few hours, W/we have been cultivating the land and preparing to plant new flowers that W/we just bought yesterday. There is a theme and style to the colours selected, and now was the day that W/we chose to prepare the flower bed behind My home such that the flowers that I invested in would be well received and be given every opportunity to flourish. It has been hard work. W/we have been digging down, rummaging through breaking up clumps, removing every weed and root possible, cleaning every aspect and preparing the ground. Then digging a place, putting down ash, compost and then the new flower. Finally topping with more compost and the top soil. The excess soil that W/we had removed, cleaned and broken down was also being replaced in spots alongside My home to protect the exposed foundation and to also prepare for overseeding the lawn to improve every aspect of the front and back yards.
While W/we were working I finally got an acknowledgement from the CRA that My tax return has been processed. Their expected turn around time was 90 days, and when I had last called I had found out My file had been open 103 days (a record that the CRA representative had never seen that number before) and that was pretty much 2 weeks ago. Today while working to improve My household alongside My slave, I finally received notification that My tax return has been processed and that I am in fact going to receive the needed funds to finish paying off My debt to My ex-wife and to My previous relationship. Now this doesn't mean I am completely finished. I still owe 4 spousal support payments, but I am reaching the end of an era.
This is a massive milestone reached. This has been a longstanding goal and one I have been working towards for the past 4 years. W/we have kept praying that this money would arrive at the exact right moment in God's timing, and it is not lost on Me that it was during the process of working to improve My home that I received this blessing.
Just a week ago, I had been struggling with having patience over "not getting what I was owed". I was struggling with desiring and "needing" the money now now now! I was losing My patience about the situation and Mikayla was able to help Me adjust My perspective and My outlook. This is why I appreciate and adore Mikayla, because she keeps Me grounded and helps support Me in just the right ways. She helps give Me reality checks and turn My eyes away from negative spaces and helps create positive ones in their place. I stopped worrying over when it would happen, and embraced "joyful patience" and in the most fulfilling ways I received what I needed when I needed it, while I was working hard to improve My home.
There has been so much more to fill Y/you all in on, from My first Munch with the local community, setting a new personal best at My local golf club (breaking 80), getting a chance to play a private golf course with a friend on this coming Monday, My birthday being in a few days, adventures and time and errands, cooking amazing food, just celebrating and enjoying O/our time together. There is just so much going on/ having gone on/will go on that its hard to keep up with.
But I know that Mikayla and I are looking forward to each moment and will definitely be celebrating in big ways this weekend.
I hope E/everyone is well and thriving and finding exactly what T/they need in this moment.
