SkyDome’s Sleeping Ledge, Fancified

Filed Under : Alternative Living,dome home,Gnome Home,Hobbit Hut,Skydome,survival skills by Whale Sister

Oct.18,2010

Day One

Day Two

(click the photos for larger versions)

As you will see, I’m tring to bring the OUTDOORS..Â .IN.

Making this as NATURAL (and Gnome / Hobbit) as possable.

All with as much NATURAL and SCROUNGED material as possible.

When FULLY completed (in AND OUT), this dome should NOT go over $400.00.

WHAT a PLACE in a back yard…Garden to even (more so) FOREST.

Almost sorry these 3 AREN’T in our little woodsland….but then, WHO WOULD KNOW THEY’RE THERE?

Again, built to SHOW.

Built from abodes of the PAST….for NOW…and our FUTURE..Â Aho?

So, “check” my blog and see what’s going on.

My thanks to “Weeds” / Adam / Sky and 2 friends, a Brother from Canada, and my Lady for all their help.Â Â re

(I’m sorry this post is up a lot later than I intended… that’s been my day: delay delay delay. – WS)

Trust Your ‘Daddy’

Oct.17,2010

I have gotten a number of Emails…each wanting to GROW.Â Trouble is, they want to grow “NOW!!â€

For any in these ‘shoes’……..KNOW THIS :Â To “DAD” YOU ARE A BABY!

Would you, as a parent…send YOUR Tiny Child to GO TO THE STORE….3 + blocks away…crossing busy STREETS?Â Â ALL ALONE,Â Â AÂ LÂ OÂ NÂ E amongst HUNDREDS of STRANGERS?

Well, thatâ€™s what YOU are saying you “WANT.”

Many say:Â “TIME is so SHORT!”

Know HE KNOWS HOW “SHORT”Â Â Â YOUÂ Â HAVE, TO LEARN!

Do NOT EXPECT HIM TO SEND YOU SEND YOU “TO THE STORE” until YOU ARE READY!

HIS time and OUR time is NOT THE SAME!

If you TRULY want to learn:Â Then

LEARN PATIENCE!

Now, Donâ€™t say “I TRUST HIM” and then DONâ€™T!

HEâ€™S YOUR PARENT!Â Â Â re

Skydome is Coming Along

Filed Under : Alternative Living,dome home,Gnome Home,Hobbit Hut,Skydome,survival skills by Whale Sister

Oct.16,2010

Got some major work done inside Sky’s DomeÂ :Â Cut smoke Exit hole above fireplace…..screwed on Horizontal Wall retainer pieces…did some “fancying” at that wall.Â FLOWERS (fake).Â That and too a bit o’ Moss across that wall.Â Giving it a more appealing “look” for gals.Â Otherwise a “man cave”.

The hole atop sure helps.Â Â Only a chimny would eliminate all tho and I don’t feel “safe” with that so close to 3 covers / willow / pvc pipe.Â Too much work to just watch the place burn down!Â Aho?

Thus this WILL be a “Cold Abode”.Â A different stove and chimney would stop that tho.Â I won’t.Â The idea is to SHOW the POSSIBILITIES one can do.

Meanwhile, sure looking nice inside.

Adam has taken pictures of this work of today.Â Will try to get ’em on the blog ASAP.Â Â re

AT&T SUCKS!

Filed Under : Family,Phone Call by Whale Sister

Oct.15,2010

AT&T SUCKS!

Iâ€™m TOTALLY disgusted with ANY Cell Phone Company.Â But after dealing with AT&T….IT IS THE VERY WORST OF ALL!

Next Month our contract is up.Â Iâ€™M GOING TO VERIZON!

#1: “V” now has HUGE Coverage…just makes AT&T look ANEMIC!

ALL the people in Kettle Falls (our “move to area) have switched…..BUSINESSES now with “V”.Â MORE TOWERS, COVERAGE!Â USA AND CANADA!

UnBELIEVABLE!

#2: nearly 1 2/3ed yrs ago my AT&T Cell was broken.Â (We have 2…or, HAD).Â THEY REFUSED TO SEND TO OUR HOME ADDRESS (replacement).Â We have ONLY a P.O. Box.Â “WE DO NOT SEND TO Post Office Boxes” ONLY to your STREET Mail Box”.Â WE DONâ€™T HAVE ONE IN OUR RURAL AREA!

So, I said “Ok, send it to my friend…(giving their Mail Street address).

“SORRY…must be YOUR OWN!”

Asked “what can I do then?”

“BUY A NEW ONE AT ONE OF OUR STORES!”

Oh, SURE…at nearly $200.00!

So, been PAYING FOR SERVICE ON 2 PHONES SINCE!Â With only ONE to use!

EXTRA CHARGES FOR TWO…and they will NOT “renew” our contract!

Well, friends, I had the option of BUYING OUT of that….but would cost us ALMOST $200.00 TO GET RID OF â€˜EM!

Well, in November our contract is UP!

Now “SCREW â€˜EM!”Â Theyâ€™ve lost US as “faithful customers”!

FAITHFUL in PAYING Every Month…for NO SECOND PHONE!

Iâ€™d sure LOVE to get that “extra service” paid back.Â Donâ€™t think THAT WILL BE!Â EVER!

Well, AT&T…..YOU CAN GET LOST!!!!!

Itâ€™s “PAY BACK” TIME!

(YES, I DO GET MAD)!

If any would…….PLEASE PASS THIS SENDING ON!Â Â (Pray about it first tho).Â Thanks.Â Red Elk and Meachelle

Small Dome Report

Filed Under : dome home,Donations,Gnome Home,Hobbit Hut,Medicine Man,Skydome,survival skills by Whale Sister

Oct.4,2010

Wanted to work on #1 but TOO COLD to do cementing.Â So went to Sky’s.Â Â Cut off about 6-8 in. of bed ledge wall (more room on main floor)…Backed that dirt with heavy white tarp (vertical logs will be put in front of that)…leveled the bathroom floor and placed the toilet in its permanent place…rugged it (temp), set rug on main (temp), added the attic, did some general clean up.Â THIS DOME’S INTERIOR IS REALLY LOOKING GOOD!

“Weeds” did nearly all the work…I suprivised.Â THIS GUY’S NOT AFRAID TO WORK!Â Trade…teachings for labor.

He’s sleeping in Adam’s dome as “here” home.

HOPEFULLY we will get a load of gravel and be able to finish all flooring tomorrow.Â Rock company was closed today! sighÂ (wasted trip)

Anyway, a BUSY DAY indeed…and a GOOD ONE!Â Â Â re

A personal question:Â Any “out here” raise MEAT RABBITS?

Am considering doing so for this small family (of 4).Â Tired of chicken and hamburger.Â Would like some variety.Â Aho?

THINKING N.Z. breed.Â 3 to 5 does.Â HOW MANY will each produce?Â Will ONE Buck be sufficient?Â Or?

Any advice?Â Better breeds?Â Etc.?

In advance, Thank You.Â Â re

Praise HIM In All Things…Even Death

Filed Under : Creator,Death,Family,Medicine Man,Phone Call,Red Elk Speaks,Spiritual Matters,Tellings by Whale Sister

Got a call from one of my cousins.Â Another, (her sister) had passed away “in her sleep.”

Naturally, Milly (the cousin caller) was devastated.

I hadnâ€™t been notified till after the funeral.

(Couldnâ€™t have gone (Cal.) anyway).Â THE SAME WITH MILLY….making HER feel “guilty”.

Only Bud (brother) was able to attend.Â Another (Emmy) in Florida..Â RICH…….but wouldnâ€™t go.

A sad time for most of the family.Â Aho?

SOooooÂ : TIME TO EDIFY!

“Milly, there IS No DEATH.Â NONE!Â Susy is FINE!Â NO MORE ILLNESS…her BodyÂ is in PERFECT AGE N PHYSICAL FORM.Â NO MORE PAIN…EVER!Â And there to meet US when OUR TIMES comes.Â Look at this as her being away on vacation.Â To a spot there are no phones or PC to connect.

Would you worry if THIS was the case?Â (No).Â Well, she ISÂ in THAT SITUATION!Â Â Â SEE IT as JUST That!Â Sheâ€™s fine hon.”

I HAVE SEEN THIS friends….SICK ‘dead’ NOW IN PERFECT SHAPE!Â I HAVE SEEN THIS A NUMBER OF TIMES!Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â UNBELIEVABLE !Â WOW!!!

Again, I have SEEN THIS!Â Aho?

Then: “As for your guilt feeling….THERE ARE NO ACCIDENTS!Â Susyâ€™s time was up.Â Not a THING you COULD have done.Â Even a PHONE CALL “chat” “missed” WAS NO ACCIDENT.Â PLANNED to be.Â TRUST HIM, HIS WISDOM and get over it.Â It just will Drag YOU Down.Â That “DRAG DOWN” TOO is no accident!Â lUCIFER AT WORK!Â Doing what he can to STALL YOUR PRAISE !Â DOING, to STOP YOU,Â or Slow you DOWN!Â FIGHT hIM!Â FIGHT BACK!Â PRAISE GOD DESPITE NOT Calling.Â HE wants THAT, sis.Â THAT is BELIEF!Â That is TRUST!Â That is ACCEPTING HIS WILL!

Only YOU can do this, hon.Â Aho?”

Are others “out here” in the same plight?Â Â If so, I hope this helps.Â GBÂ Â Â re
