A few weeks ago, I wrote about my asshole neighbors and how my husband and I have been (and still are) the targets of a bullying and harassment campaign by our neighbors over a roofing issue that my husband has spent countless hours trying to fix.

The election results are in...and while the majority of Americans who voted are delighted with the results, several million Americans are wondering, "What the fuck just happened?" Both Republicans and Democrats will attest that "the other side" is fucking nuts.

After several disappointing events, Doug and I found ourselves in limbo.  Our condo wasn't large enough, and the 2nd floor became increasingly difficult for us both to navigate.  We bought some vacant land and hoped to build a home, but the price of materials made building the home nearly double the cost of the most expensive home in the neighborhood.

Trigger warning: this blog post deals with suicide

My husband and I faced one of the most stressful weeks we've ever had in our marriage. We got through Hurricane Helene and Hurricane Milton with easily repaired damages. We have three condos undergoing some renovation or repair.

The election will be over in a few weeks. Everyone seems to be on edge, and many things get put "on hold" until we know who is going to be our next President. Election season can be a whirlwind of emotions and stress. Prioritizing self-care is critical to maintain your emotional well-being during the next few weeks.

My assistant and I have a system in place for how we get our newsletters done. I write the blog, find the photos I want to use, get the quote, and then put it into a form. I wrote this amazing blog about how my community came together in Hurricane Milton. I put the information in the form, sent my assistant a message that it was ready, and then went to bed.

When I moved to Florida, I had much to learn about hurricanes. Thankfully, my first husband and most of his family survived Hurricane Andrew in 1992, which led to major changes in building codes and informed the public when and where hurricanes might hit.

Hurricane Helene just blew by Florida, wreaking havoc here and throughout multiple states: 56 deaths and counting. Thankfully, we live about 25 miles from the Gulf of Mexico, so we went through the hurricane just fine. However, I glanced at Facebook and realized how lucky we were. One of my friends had 3 feet of water in her home. Another lost her car

I went to a Hypnosis Conference about ten years ago when I bumped into a Chinese medicine physician. I was telling her about a young lady I worked with who was having phantom pains in her abdomen when she was having sex. After visiting multiple doctors and undergoing countless MRIs, X-rays, and CAT scans, which turned up nothing, she turned to another hypnotist, who referred her to me.

It's been about 2.5 years since I was diagnosed with Hashimoto's hypothyroidism. I have had to make many drastic changes in my diet, including avoiding gluten, dairy, soy, alcohol, and nightshades (peppers).

Whenever I tell someone I'm a hypnotist, someone always says, "I don't think I can be hypnotized." To which I reply, "Congratulations! You just hypnotized yourself to believe you can't be hypnotized!"

I've been the President of my condo association for over a year and a half. I never thought I'd go from touring worldwide as a comedian to condo association President. Still, here I am living the dream, doing my best to protect my property investment and everyone else's. 97% of my residents are absolutely fantastic.
