We’re going to stay in Ventura on Wednesday 6/19, and Thursday 6/20 and return on Friday. I was wondering if you might be able to either stay up here those nights with the boys, OR you could just drive up and check in on them. We would like an adult to check in with them while we’re away. We don’t want or expect you to stay up there the whole time (unless you want to) rather just making sure everything’s ok. Thanks for considering 😁

Hi Sheri, thanks for letting me know the status of things. I hope you're not too wiped out from hanging with the boys. I hope they were not much trouble. Do let us know about the summer in July. Let us know if you can housesit it's the quietest time of year on campus and quite relaxing!

Jun 21, 2019 12:11:08 PM Me

At the very least we need to find a time to hang out before we leave in July. Let us know when you're around. Liz is deep in her training right now so we like to go out early and finish early :-)

Jun 21, 2019 12:12:52 PM +13108092136

The boys were NO trouble. In fact, I feel guilty. I didn't make it up to make their dinner last night. Got caught up in a meeting for way too long.

Jun 21, 2019 12:15:04 PM +13108092136

Declan doesn't know his phone #. Can you text it to me? I felt bad for not communicating with him that I was stuck. I'm simply over scheduling myself, & it's

Hi Sherry! I hope you're doing well this morning. I woke up this morning thinking about Nat, and realized I never asked about his wishes. Meaning I know they planned Neptune, but what about beyond that? I know there was mention of a celebration later in August, but what about right now for those of us who we're closest to him? Do you know if there's anything? If not, that's fine, but I feel compelled to ask

Jun 26, 2019 11:30:15 AM Me

Hi Sherry, just a note to check in and say hi! Hope you are doing well and things are going ok. We’re ok here.

Hi Bert; I just listened to your vm of this morning. Thank you so very much. I really DO appreciate your words, and the update. If you like, I'm pretty sure we can use the Community Room here. I think you saw it. It's pretty spacious, & has a kitchen attached. I'd have to get permission first, but I don't think it'd be a problem. Please continue to give my love to Liz & the boys. I hope they did ok with the news. Also hope Adam has surfaced & is ok. Any word how Laura’s doing? Love you Lots! Speak soon. 🙏🏻Sherry🌸

Hi Sherry! Hope this note finds you well! I have a question for you, I am looking at maybe taking Liz away for one maybe two nights for her birthday this Sunday. I need to confirm some things on my end but wanted to ask if you might be able to check on the boys while we’re gone? Just to make sure everything is good. Don’t think you need to spend night unless you want to. I know it’s very last minute as this only came to my mind last night-it’s been that busy. So if you can’t I TOTALLY understand. Thanks for considering 😁. PS this is a surprise so don’t spill the beans 😁

Jun 04, 2022 12:15:43 AM Me

I’m doing ok thanks for asking! Was not great this morning but I wrote out something on paper and it felt really good to get all these disparate thoughts out of my head and connected together to tell a tale of how I ended up where I did last year. I had been wanting to do this for a few days. Felt like the time spent meditating and reflecting helped me see a clear picture of root causes, behaviors and their effects on others. Just my shit and my awareness on how it hurt those I love and hold dearest. I’m a big believer in owning your shit by articulating what was going on for you in those moments. It took me 10 months, 4 of them in other places and spaces to get clear, cultivate awareness, unpack causality to discover root causes to help understanding. For me this has become my process for making self discovery happen and producing insightful results.

Jun 04, 2022 11:45:36 AM (Read by them after 1 second) Me

Thanks Sherry! I have 6 pages written out with clear and honest contrition. Laying it all out there in the sun. My hope is to read it to her, but if she prefers she can read it herself. I wrote because I’m emotional when I begin talking about heart things and I get lost in tears and snot. This way I’ve taken time to be clear and I can read while I cry, or I may cry as she reads and I watch her, who knows? 😊

I hope you can handle this… I’m just sharing what I think… cuz I care. First, your feelings (all if them!) are legit. They’re not to be denied.🙏🏻💕 FEEL them, have them…and get them out. But if you can stay longer in your “New You🌟” mode, with Liz… I think she needs to see THAT. I saw & felt it, and it’s wonderful!! I think your tears are something she’s seen a lot of, (just saying) & I’d hate her to think nothing has changed.👍 Love you 👊🤗

Jun 04, 2022 8:20:02 PM Me

I’ve been in that mode for sure. The tears and emotions were impossible to stop the other day. I love her and being around her in person so much right away after nearly 3 months away, OMG I wanted to reach out and hug her, but her body language was saying no. I’ve missed her dearly while gone this past year and want to be with her. I’ve never stopped loving her. And in the same breath I know time away separate was important for healing.

Jun 04, 2022 8:21:35 PM +13108092136

I understand. Do you think she GETS how important she is to you?

Hi Sherry, saw you called but I was driving. I’m home working today and doing well. Best I’ve felt in some time. In my meditation this past week I could feel and see a root level shift. Meaning not stuck in my mental rut. The more I meditate consistently the more I’m feeling better. It’s VERY slow at first but I’m feeling benefits so I keep going back. When I see old patterns surface I take time to sit with it and process. How are you doing? I’ve been texting with Sallie everyday to see how she’s doing. And waiting for good news 😊 Be well!

Jun 25, 2022 3:03:54 PM (Read by you after 3 seconds) +13108092136

Gosh Bert, I hope you’re not writing me off…the “Be well!”, although a very nice thing to say, kinda threw me…like “sayonara”. ??? Anyway, do you think you could help me with my printer?? It doesn’t need to be today, but I do need to get it working. Me? I’m doing the same I guess…swinging from one end of the spectrum to the other, lol. I still seem to want to do more for others than for myself. But I’m working on it (today, anyway). And I sorta miss partaking in the summer events that Ojai has to offer; the Lavender Festival is today, the concerts are at Libbey Bowl, etc…But I’m not. I don’t want to be tempted to spend. I guess Sallie was anticipating coming home today, but unfortunately, is having one of her worst days yet, she says. I think Joanna & I are going to visit her tomorrow. Love you (AND Liz), and wish you the Best & Highest Good. 🙏🏻💜🕊

If you’re truly worried about your bank accounts, and you do bank it BofA. I recommend looking up their phone number online, and calling them at the number they have on their website. Don’t call the number in the text message and explain to the person you speak to that you got this weird text message. They do like to know if their customers are getting stuff like that. They have people that try to fight that stuff

Jun 27, 2022 2:49:52 PM Me

No problem, my mom and dad kept showing me weird text messages and emails they were getting. Some of the stuff I saw was really really clever. I was dubious of all of them, but somewhere really slick and would be easy for people to fall prey to that shit

That is so kind of you Bert! I frequently need help with anything technical! HA! ahhh, the aging ADHD brain. I forgot to ask you how long it would take, & if you’d mind, setting up/connecting a smallish tv I have in the living room. It’s got Roku built in! 🎉 But I’ll need to make a clearing for it before you come.

Get it set up however you like and when you’re ready to Stream let me know I’ll swing by and connect it

Heads up, Bert & Declan! This came in from Joanna, who probably visited her yesterday. Sallie update: she seemed in good spirits, laughed and smiled to day...but had little appetite for her dinner. They are giving her an endoscopy tomorrow around 2 pm (a small camera goes down her throat into her stomach) to check for an ulcer...due to anemia she has and blood in her stool. I was about to text you to let you know she’s been craving vanilla milk shakes, in case you felt like taking one in. But today it probably wouldn’t be such a good idea. If you don’t mind updating me after your visit, I’d appreciate it❣️

😳 sorry. Got distracted by errands and Declan’s good company. She was napping when we arrived so we sat quietly for about 10 mins. Nurse came in for vitals and woke her up. I could see her peek out and she instantly said “visitors!” Nurse asked her if she knew who we were, and she didn’t hesitate. She was much better than I anticipated. She had energy and was in good spirits. We talked about the testimony that happened today, and she said she was off doing tests and didn’t see it. I brought AirPods that I connected to her phone and it helps her immensely!! 😁 So if u call her she’ll be able to hear you fine.

Jun 29, 2022 12:44:19 AM Me

It was really great to see her. I know Declan was happy to see her and Sallie of course was excited to have Declan there for a visit. Now that we “know the drill” we can visit again.

Thank you Very Much, Bert❣️ can No suggestions over the phone help to tell me how to make/force the wifi to go to the 4G ? Instead of 5G? Weird thing is, it WILL let me change it at times… like late at night. Could other people be jamming it up during the day?

Jul 13, 2022 4:17:06 PM +13108092136

Or…is there an easy way to change the wifi setting in the printer?

Jul 13, 2022 4:18:19 PM +13108092136

I looked at the settings on it, but didn’t know how to go deeper, & was afraid I’d really mess it up. BTW, how are You doing??

Jul 13, 2022 8:05:59 PM Me

hi sherry, it sounds like other peoples wifi might be interfering with your printer. Did any settings change since I left?

No, i don’t think so.

Jul 13, 2022 8:07:25 PM Me

It was connected fine, with a computer and phone. I would restart the printer, check settings to confirm its on the right wifi. Then restart the computer/phone. Confirm on the same network. Fix if not. Try printing again

Jul 13, 2022 8:07:30 PM Me

that’s what I would do if there

Thank you so much, Bert!! You are a treasure for reaching out, & I really appreciate it!! Yes, I’m over the dastardly Covid. As of a week ago, Thursday, I’ve tested negative, but will continue to mask everywhere for another few days to avoid “rebounding”, & for the protection of others, in the event I’m sloughing active cells. 🤷🏼‍♀️ Ya hear so many different things!🤷🏼‍♀️ Yeh, can you BELIEVE the eyedrop story!! Like an “I Love Lucy” skit!! Thank God Jo was still awake, & reading me the google instructions, so I could keep my eyeball under running water for 15 minutes! THAT was touturous!! To top it off, mind you I’ve had about 12 hrs sleep in the last 4 days…trying to get together paperwork for recertifying at Whispering Oaks, UGGG!,… So I went to my ophthalmologists office this morning, & as I was leaving, I backed into a big beautiful, shiny blue SUV/truck!! The older couple were very nice about it, but have my # & will call me tomorrow, as I was balling my eyes out in that moment. I tell ya, I feel like I’m really being tested lately, & the tests feel like they’re winning! Is there voo-doo spell on me?? Is it time to get outta Ojai?? Or is EVERYONE on the planet struggling?? With that in mind, how are YOU doing my Friend? Joanna said you were very good, but i want to hear it from the horses mouth I guess. And she said you are going to Kona with the family, so I guess there’s been SOME communication with Liz. 👏👏👏 YaY!! I’d love to catch up with you soon!! The Zombies are playing in Libbey Bowl tonight. I want to go & just listen from the tennis bleachers, as funds are tight. If i can snag a couple of free, general admin tickets, I will. Do you care to join me? I’ll sign off for now, as I feel the need for a nap. Much love & MoJo to you!! 💕😇 xxx

It’s looking for the file that was on the desktop. Remember we dragged everything into that folder on your desktop. The file is inside that folder. You need to click the blue button and then navigate your way to that folder on your desktop and click on the file. Remember click the drop-down menu at the top you can go you know from your user folder up to the hard drive and back down again

Hey Bert, This is that “Original-Source” from the Director that was supposed to remain unedited/unchanged. As you can see, the first row, the Title Row, took on the titles I selected for (Sheet 2) FM Liaison, except for column B, where I typed in Film Title before I realized how much everything was off. Whats the best way for me to get it back the way it was originally?

Hi Sherry, just got your voicemail this morning about the mail merge. You would not be doing a mail merge. Mail merges are for sending to large groups of people. If you had a list of emails inside an Excel file it could email to each one of those email addresses that’s a mail merge. All you wanna do is attach the file to an email. So create a new email, then look for the paper clip icon to attach a document once you do that you’re going to get the file dialogue and you have to navigate your way to where that file is actually sitting inside your computer and then click on the file and click OK once you do that the files attached to the email you click send whoever is listed as a recipient on the email will get a copy of that spreadsheet.

Ahhh! That makes sense now. I Called back four times and went to your voicemail. LOL I have another computer question…or two. Should I save my workbook as it was before?(.xlsx) that’s called “Strict Open XML Spreadsheet” Or should I switch it to a PDF?? Also, I think when I emailed the work before, Both Sheets got sent, even though I just wanted Sheet 2 to be sent. Is there a way to do THAT??

Oct 14, 2022 9:44:51 PM Me

.xlsx For sure

Oct 14, 2022 9:45:19 PM Me

That will make importing into Google sheets much easier if they are in that format

Oct 14, 2022 9:45:43 PM Me

Think of a PDF is taking a picture of it. No one can edit the sheet once you turn it into a PDF

Oct 14, 2022 9:46:43 PM Me

Yes you could send, or share only one sheet with everybody. Right now with excel you would have to copy that sheet into a new document that is blank paste that sheet in there save that as a new file and send that separately so that would separate the two sheets. That’s a big pain in the ass and it’s much easier to do in google sheets

Oct 14, 2022 9:47:27 PM Me

Are you SERIOUS?? That’s EXACTLY what I need!! But you’re working!! I would PAY, but…you know the $$ situation here. We’ve got to have EVERYTHING OFF our AC UNITS, inside and out, so workers can switch them out. I’ve got 2 Lg. boxes on my patio, too “clear the decks”…. But it’s like my friend neck is broken! I can’t lift anything!! So someone offering, is a miracle!! Thank you 🙏🏻

She has expressed this idea of some fantasy land where she and I can support the boys, etc. She doesn’t know that I will not be able to be in the same space as her in the future. She’s kicked me out of my marriage, my life, and my family, and I will never forgive her for that because the foundations upon what she’s made that decision or illusory. I know that for a fact because she had told me my intentions for various things that transpired during Covid when it was the opposite. The problem was she never asked me. That’s the entire thing about this. She’s basing her decision to divorce on assumptions. She hasn’t sat down and had a heart-to-heart talk with me in over five years. So I know that whatever context she has for this is theoretical, hypothetical bullshit. One of two things is going to end up happening. When I move out, I’ll be dead within three months because I cannot take on life with that traumatic shift mentally. The second scenario, which I think has less than 1/4 of a one percent chance of happening, is Moving out and staying alive, yet anything family-centric. I will avoid it. Darragh‘s graduation I won’t be there because she’ll be there. Did any of the boys get married? I won’t be there because she’ll be there. When her mom passes away (as we all do), I won’t be there because she’ll be there Anywhere she is, I will not be. She has some fantasy that I’m somehow going to be able to hang out in her space. She is persona non grata to me after this. An incubator my boys spent nine months in Fuck her and the horse she rode in on. Word.

One other anecdote is that I hear constantly how she had to deal with my anger. The only thing she dealt with was me raising my voice and being hysterical when she continuously ghosted me day after day. I confronted her about feeling forgotten. All she could say to me was sorry. That was it, no hug no anything nothing. Just “sorry“ That’s my wife talking to me about ghosting me consistently day after day. Remember when we were talking about the week after week of no sex? She’s fucking hallucinating if she’s telling everybody that she had sex with me every week. That’s a fat fucking lie, and I will yell that straight to her fucking face. How the fuck dare she say that kind of straight up fucking lie. I’m sorry, but I’m triggered by this. I honestly need to know the truth of what the fuck she is saying that other people before they crucify her

I can’t take lies about things I never did. Especially when it touches the subject of sexual assault. I would never in my life harm a woman. The morning after July 3 I confronted Elizabeth in the kitchen and told her that if you feel that I did what you accuse me of, I’m happy to hop in the car right now and drive down to the police station in OJAI and turn myself in. I was ready and willing to be booked for rape on July 4th She told me to stop. I imagine she never shared that with anyone. What’s more insulting is that I carried the label of a rapist in my mind for two years. You may as well put me in fucking prison. It was that awful. I watched my mother get beaten, physically by my father, growing up as a kid. I abhor any kind of violence towards women. Any kind in any form. Someone could hold a gun to my head and I could not be violent against a woman least of all my wife In fact, someone could’ve held a gun against my head and asked me to do what she apparently accuses me of and tells everybody I did. Not gonna happen. Mike, I told you I have unconditional love for Elizabeth. I take a bullet knife whatever for her to this very minute. I love her to infinity and beyond but it’s just not reciprocal and I got a deal with it 25/30 years into this relationship.

Apr 22, 2023 2:17:51 AM Me

Open questions for her. Her fathers infidelity destroyed her parents marriage. It literally pulverized the marble pedestal. Elizabeth had her father upon. Despite this she was somehow able to show him mercy and have a relationship with him. Both Greg and Adam tortured her as a small child. I know this from the limited number of stories she shared. I know that it’s just a fraction of what happened to her. as you know, both her brothers have had lifelong struggles with alcohol and drugs. Yet somehow she has not disowned her brothers and never disowned her father. She was able to show the men in her life, mercy and second chances and allow them to continue to have relationships with her. one would think being her husband I would be a pretty important man in her life and might be on par to get the same kind of mercy and open heart at this. That’s a big open question for me. Ask me scratching my head every day. I was suffering from major depressive disorder, I may as well had liver cancer, yet there is no mercy for me.

Again, this was not like I was operating with a full deck when I had a major depressive disorder and was self-medicating. That was three years ago, yet somehow I’m treated like I’m walking around and still the same person from three years ago. I am under professional care, both therapeutically and medicinally. I have two different people working with me, and I’ve been under their care for over two years. Once this shit happened that July, I got professional help myself. That was another fascinating thing about being in major depressive disorder. Elizabeth just told me I needed to get help. Not hey, let me help you, or hey, what’s going on? I was just given the stiff arm to keep me at a distance and she made a lot of assumptions.

How are you feeling TODAY, Bert? I can only assume that whatever alcohol you consumed last night contributed to your out pouring of self-pity. I dunno. So sad to think you STILL believe some of that stuff…so much for Buddhism, & being that “new man”…You seem unable to hang onto it. You flip-flop constantly. You & I have never had the chance to “party” alone like that before, without someone else around to inadvertently “monitor” what’s being said, or have the situation shift, like “dinnertime!”, or something. You KNOW I care about you! And I care about Liz too… But what I care about most is a peaceful resolution, so everyone, the boys included, can begin to HEAL, & get on with life. You & Liz have had SO much silent time to dance around the 7/3/21 event, you’ve both slanted the memories to lean in your favor, and now the truth is no where to be found. It doesn’t matter any more. You guys are never going to see eye-to-eye again. That’s a fact! Look…as much as it hurts,… If Liz is done, she’s DONE. Nothing you do at this point can change that. If she wants you out, you have to move out. And if she wants a divorce, she wants a divorce!! She’s to a point that she wants to move ON from whatever you two haven’t been able to resolve over the recent years. And that means letting you go. It’s time. In fact, it’s becoming OVERDUE! I’d love to see you two be able to mediate this situation, amicably somehow, bc otherwise the attorneys will be the only winners. I’m not your therapist. I’m your friend; Your sister-in-law. I’m NOT taking sides. And truthfully, I should report your mentions of suicide to a hotline…or YOU should. I want to keep you as a friend, because we’ve always BEEN friends, as far as I can tell. And you’ve always been fun, silly, super romantic, creative, helpful, caring & intelligent. But if you can’t accept the reality of your present situation, and instead want to lash out with threats of destruction and your ability to hurt, I’ll probably never want to be in your presence again. You damage the boys, the more hostile you become towards their mother. You may not see it that way, because you need “allies”, but Bert, it will fuck them up in the future, one way or the other. Trust me!

Apr 22, 2023 3:28:13 PM +13108092136

Shit. I didn’t mean to send that yet… I don’t want you to think I’m saying all this to hurt you. I’m not. But I really think you need an advocate to keep your thoughts POSITIVE, & ON TRACK with becoming a Peaceful Human, inside & out. Maybe it’s time to drop the alcohol altogether, and anything else that fuels thoughts of depression & rage. They are only thoughts, Bert, and you can CHOOSE to have control over your thoughts & actions. Love you. Come over if you want to talk.

Thanks for your words and feedback. Simply put I’m having a hard time accepting it because she’s not being honorable or honest with me. I’m left with an incredible number of unanswered questions and looking at flawed logic. Its hard to accept something so consequential when those involved haven’t talked through things. I’ve heard from both you and Joanna things that are just flat out false. Additionally in session I confronted Elizabeth about her ASSUMPTION of how I was behaving. She stated I was having a certain way therefore its unsettling. She NEVER asked me what I was thinking or doing. If she had asked she would have discovered what was true. She never asked, I never bothered her—triathlon focus—and she took assumption as fact. I’m having a hard time accepting this when some of her reasoning and justification make no sense to me. I’m left feeling I dont matter because she wants out and done deal. Really feel like WTF about me? Dont I matter?

She shut down and physically and mentally stiff-armed me me when we went to Coeur DAlene Idaho. It was the race she qualified for Kona. I thought there would be massive celebrations, but I felt ghosted for good parts of the trip. That drove me to isolate and self hate.

What I am incredibly sad about is that I made it through all my dark shit and have it in check. Yes we all have triggers and moments, but I have the tools now to transcend what’s been holding me back. However, I can’t share that with Elizabeth. She is transfixed on seeing me as that same person she’s always known. I can confidently say I have so much more I want to share with her. I am sad because years ago I imagined this time and thinking of joy and happiness, but here we are. I find myself going back to this Pema Chodron quotation every time I think of Elizabeth now… "The truth you believe and cling to makes you unavailable to hear anything new.” —Pema Chodron

I’m sad too because she ghosts me. That started about 5 years ago after her dad passed and just got worse. We never grieved together privately, just the two of us, and I found that odd, honestly, and still do. It feels like she’s built a massively thick wall to hide feelings and emotions she’s afraid to let out because she despises not being in control at all times—composure is paramount. If she were to let out her true feelings, they might get out of her control. When I show up with my experiences, which contradict hers — suddenly, she’s not in control of the narrative and challenges her story. It truly gets under her skin because I watched it firsthand in person and in counseling. When my narrative challenged hers, I was mistaken, wrong, or invalid because I was so wasted I couldn’t remember. I have zero to hide; I love my wife. What I can’t understand is the ‘my way or highway’ angle with no compassion or mercy to be found. These are some of the perspectives I’ve arrived at through my meditations. She shut her heart and inner life off from me. I tried and tried to get her to talk to me; however, she took it as me being needy and her having to somehow be responsible for my happiness and fix me, or that I was trying to fix her and make things better. I know she’s done, but my Spock brain can’t make sense of it, and my super mushy heart is purple and black right now.

Liz thought I was too needy or wanting validation. I happen to have a “physical” love style meaning touch, caress, etc was incredibly important to me. I didnt discover this until this last year doing work on myself. I’m also conflicting that with feelings of guilt, shame, and worthyness.

I still feel that intense love for her since we were young. It's gotten deeper and stronger over decades. That's why after being really sick and making myself better I'm getting kicked to the curb.

Great! Oh. Well I’m guessing what would trigger you would be relationship talk. So we don’t have to talk about that… Now, just decide whether we should go out for a nice dinner, go to the Ojai Brewery for simple eats (& hopefully music tonight), out to Nigel’s place (I haven’t been in yet), or “Sam’s Place” (aka the Vine, MoVino’s, etc.), or the HUB for pool & Karaoke (but we don’t have to sing, I won’t anyway!

No, not fix it or complete it, I time box myself for 30 minutes and just made as much progress as I could and then I leave it. The good thing is is I made it over a significant hump in the process so all good.

Apr 29, 2023 8:05:58 PM Me

Aidan gave this car to Declans, it’s his old car, but the driver rear window was smashed because Aidan forgot his keys and was too impatient for AAA

Apr 29, 2023 8:06:48 PM Me

So instead of paying four to $500 to have it repaired. I found a used window on eBay for this car for 45 bucks shipping included. And I’ve spent maybe two or three hours of my time so far. Plus I’m learning

Hi Sherry, I’m sorry for it taking forever for me to get back to you. So I am going to dinner with Maga and the boys for my birthday right now. I’m really sorry and I have to turn down your invitation to go to the shores and see the band. I hope you found someone to go. We’re only going to dinner here locally, so if you’re around later, let me know again I apologize for not replying sooner.

Hey Bert ! That’s totally OK! I didn’t go… I’ve been invited back into the Usher Pool @ Libby Bowl, for the Canyon Club concerts! I’m just getting home from the opening show of the season! If was absolutely fantastic!! OMG!! Do you know, or have you heard of, BETH HART??? I’d heard her name before, but never listened to her. I’m hooked! Amazingly raw & transparent!!

Real bouncing Fun! lol It’s hard to tell if they’re going to be giving out freebee concert tickets this year, but it sure is fun being there. It makes me feel young again…or wait, did I ever stop??? If you’d like an occasional weekend, night experience as an usher at Libbey Bowl, I’m sure Mark could use the help, & a couple more. So, you never told me how that meeting went. The one that sounded like it was going to be critical to your future with the company? I’m sure you impressed the heck outta them, but wanted to hear about it.

Hi Sherry, it’s Bert. I’m sorry I didnt let you know I was leaving for the summer. However, I arrived back in Ojai On Sunday morning so I could start coaching Darragh and Thacher Boys Varsity yesterday. Its bitter sweet to get to coach Darragh one last time. Anyhow I wanted to reach out and let you know I’m back in the valley. I have training up at Thacher every day from 3-5:30. I go up, do my soccer thing, then drop Darragh off at his home and leave campus. Its very strange not to be living on campus. I was there for nearly a quarter of a century. I digress. Let me know how you are doing and be well. ☺️

Hola! In true nomad form I’ve not found a place yet. I’m waiting until the moment feels right. I’m camping which I did across country and back in my car and it was one of the best things I’ve done. I truly enjoy seeing all the people and places. I’m up at Dennison Park, at the top of the switchbacks past Bocallis. Going to move around to different camps in the area. Going to get a beach spot for a night here and there. They have spots but nothing over many days because it’s all booked up 😊 But I will enjoy the days I can get at the beach for sure. Hook up to my phone and be online 👍 Been unemployed, homeless, and alone for 6 months now. Lots of meditation with many different teachers and styles of meditation. I have almost 1,000 hours of meditation under my belt. I can stay still and thoughtless for as long as I like now. Awakening, angel connections (metatron), and time alone reflecting. I feel different. I don’t fall into old patterns and have an incredibly acute level of awareness. My life over the past six months can be be summed up in a new mantra that I am living… Be Recieve Give Thanks That’s it. Simple is superior, nothing complex.

How very exciting this all sounds!! I’m so happy for you for having a new, and consistent practice, Bert! I’ll come visit you at your various sites if you ever feel like having company. Maybe we can plan a bonfire sometime. (Do you have enough supplies to keep warm enough at night??) I love the idea that you’ve been car camping for so long! It certainly DOES change one’s perspective!! You and Emerson…💚💚. I’ve got a feeling you’ll soon find a more permanent place to live, so I want to jump on your “nature train” before that happens…especially when you’re at the beach!! I’m sure the boys will too!! 💕💕 Have you seen Declan yet?? They must be SO excited to have you back, and coaching. What a treasure, even though, yes, it’s bitter-sweet…Your babies are heading off into the world of adulthood!! 🥹😢 Although I wouldn’t worry TOO much about them getting very far from home, lol. Sallie told me neither of them wants to drive. Is that right?? Anyway, I’m glad you’re back & looking forward to seeing you! Happy HALLOWEEN!!! 🎃 🎃🎃

Then, pool therapy from 12-1pm. But I thought I would come out after that, if it’s OK with you,…and bring my tent. I don’t know if that is allowed or not. It seems like there isn’t much cell phone contact there, but that’s OK. Call me back when you’re in range. I’m so happy that you’re getting to bathe in all those negative ions!🩵🩵🩵

Hi Bert! I am in Santa Maria with my elder friend, HELEN. I’m here for seven days and we’ve been cooking up a storm. We’re having beef roast instead of turkey and last night I made some cream spinach to go with it. Are you still at Tennyson? And will you be there next week, or where will you be? I WILL definitely come and visit you graph. I hope you are not alone on this holiday, unless you absolutely want to be, and I’m curious about whatever else new.. Lots of love 💕 I 🦃🦃🦃

Nov 23, 2023 7:29:19 PM Me

Thanks Sherry ! So nice to hear back so quick! I’m at Dennison alone and have been all day other than going to Starbucks for coffee around Noon to get online and charge my batteries. I leave here next Monday morning and unsure where next. Woman from Iowa no longer wants to be connected. Other person I met late last week was fun to talk with and that’s all there was to that. I’m curious what the universe has planned next. I’m thinking of hermiting myself for a while. I’ve been trying earnestly to start finding my stride and feel connected to life again. Been in liminal spaces of the mind for far too long. I miss my family and life I had with Elizabeth and because I’ve not been able to keep my illnesses under control with everything I was dealing with inside my skull sized kingdom was unknown to everyone, I wore a mask faking wellness and wellbeing because I didn’t feel like I was worth it. That was the depression driving the bus the whole time for weeks, months and years. Lately I’ve been meditating on my karma to help my understanding of WHY I’m in this space? Why did everything I cherished so deeply get taken away without the type of conversation one would expect for a couple of 30 years. The karma meditations are in early stages but I’m hopeful they’ll bear fruit. On the bright side my meditation practice grounds me whenever I tap in.

Awww. Sweetie…Im so sorry.🌟🙏🏻🌟🙏🏻 WE can talk when I get back. But 2 quick thoughts… Any kind of VOLUNTEERING, or helping others in need, always seems to help me. And I believe we create our Karma. So even in dark times, do the THINKING of your highest dreams…Not including Elizabeth…(that chapter is clearly closed…). And if being in nature, hiking the mountains, or beach, etc. is what brings you joy & feels like it HEALS you, take the time to do it now, for as kind as it takes for you to feel better.💘 It’s awesome you’re still meditating regularly. 🙏🏻 Peace, Love, Joy, Compassion

That’s cool. Glad to hear you got to hangout with Casey and I hope she’s doing well. I have to pass on the music. I did something to my left hip and have shooting pain in my hip and back. Going to lay low, thanks for thinking of me! I’m not at Dennison right now. I’m on Santa Ana Road. There’s a stretch where some RVs have been parked for over a month. I park near them. I’m headed to Faria Beach campsite for Xmas eve and Xmas. I think I’ll be spending Xmas alone, but that’s cool — I did thanksgiving alone this year and it was ok. I survived despite my misgivings about what it would feel like. Seriously its not a big deal to me — I’ve shifted my perspective and not attached to the old idea of my family and the holidays. Took me a lot of work to get to that place and headspace, but I am a few chapters past that part of my life now. I’m over 230 applications and counting looking for a gig — its frustrating.

Mar 01, 2024 3:20:06 PM (Read by them after 2 seconds) Me

Hola Sherry Happy Friday! I’ve been doing ok. I may have finally turned a corner, flipped a page, moved to another chapter, etc. Past couple months have been intense. Lots more rejection on the job front. Even Target, Lowes, Home Depot, have all said thanks but no thanks. Still a nomad. Making it thru winter and wet — it’s all good. I’ve been on this nomadic journey 9 months now — this isn’t my first rodeo any longer. I’ve exhausted every penny I had saved for retirement in order to live now — besides there is no guarantee of a tomorrow. OK, I won’t get all esoteric in the text. 😊 I've been doordashing, ubereats to make cash to get food and juice for the car, to pay my storage space and pay for the car and insurance. I've applied for unemployment insurance and I’m ineligible — I'm a 1099, not a W2 employee. So despite being W2 for nearly 2 decades of paying into a system I cannot access when I need it — and I've paid for it — VERY frustrating to say the least. I did sign up for food stamps and that should be active soon. So, I liquidated myself, other than selling my stuff in storage, I've got my car, clothes on my back and this laptop I'm typing on. I'm on a journey. I'm going to come out on the other side of this. I have no idea where and when I will land, but I will. I’m up every day getting after it, like today, a Sunday, I'm online before 8am working on my “next thing” I just got a new software design client who signed a contract with me to design and deliver some mobile application work. My first pro work in my field in nearly 9 months. I'm pretty stoked. A good infusion of money, but more importantly — medicine for the mind.

OMG!! So good to hear from you Bert!! And thanks for the HAPPY ending…with your update!! lol I’ve been w/o my phone all day or I would have responded sooner! Geez. The thought of you still car camping makes me so SO sad!!! I’m glad you’re able to eat though!! Speaking of that, do you know about the CAP OFFICE on S. Montgomery? It used to be the Emporium restaurant? Well now it’s part of Help off Ojai. CAP stands for Community Assistance Program. Every Monday & Wednesday morning @ 10:00 They have free food to hand out to anyone who needs it!! It’s all on a table & you can take as much as you like! Take a bag or two with you. They close it at 12:30 or 1:00, so it’s good to get there early. The stuff is great! Donations from the local restaurants & grocery stores. Even Whole Foods & Sprouts sometimes. And LET THEM KNOW YOU’RE HOMELESS!! Tell them your story! They’ll take your info & can usually be of help❣️ Today was the grand opening of the Wheelhouse (dispensary) in Ventura! I got there a little late & had to stand in line, in the rain, for 2 hours! to get inside. That’s how long the line was. Everything in the store was 40% off, & if you spent a certain amount you got a surprise bag, full of random “goodies”, for 1 cent!! I haven’t even looked at it yet, but I can share some if you’re in need. Anyway, my feet, ankles, KNEES, legs, back & neck are all killing me right now, so I plan to put something in that bag, to good use!! My place is still a ROYAL MESS, but you’re always welcome to come over & hang out, (if you can stand it), get outta the rain. I don’t know your sleep schedule these days, or I’d call you to see what you’re up to. So thanks again for reaching out! Keep warm & take care of yourself & keep in touch!

Hi Sherry So nice to hear from you. Elizabeth texted me about 1pm to let me know. I replied, with my condolences. Let her know that I was thinking about her, and that to let me know if there’s anything at all I can do for her, or to help or what have you. Other than her text I reached out to my boys and communicated with them, but they’ve been rather quiet. Liz, Declan and Darragh are in San Diego at the moment visiting Aidan. It's Spring break for Thacher right now. I didn’t know about there whereabouts until Declan revealed it communicating with me. Other than that it’s been crickets 🦗 for me regarding communications from what used to be my family—that is my experience in life with all of them since I left last year. So if you know of any services or remembrance gatherings etc please let me know. And I want to ask how are you doing? And lastly if you’ve heard anything from Joanna? From Ventura…

You’ve done it for a year…whenever you’re ready…move on. I think it’ll feel good to put down some roots again. New roots. You know. Roots…. Once you plant them they begin to grow…into something beautiful. So gitter dun, Dude! Lol I’m making progress, inch by inch. Got my car body taken care of, but I think something is off with the suspension or steering, a little. Ojai Valley Imports says No. 💝🤷🏼‍♀️ Jessica & I are driving to San Diego together next week to attend Casey’s graduation; Psychology. Maybe she’ll be able to put us all back right

Hi Sheri, are you in Ojai? I ask only because I’m curious if you will be at Sally’s memorial tomorrow morning. I hope you are well and all is good in your world and that your children, your young women are also doing well and things are good for everybody. It’s not often, everything is good so be grateful when it shows up

Good Morning, Burt, & Happy Father’s Day!! Last night was really wonderful with Dylan! I didn’t get there till 11, & Christina & Harper had conked out. So we ended up at a little wine bar in Ventura, & talked til 2am. Nobody knows your & Liz’s “story”…& the rumor mill faces have been sorely twisted…unless you’re hooked on heroin! lol But before I even started, Dylan said, ”I LOVE Burt! He was always so kind & cool to talk to. What HAPPENED??” And he really wants to see you! They’re leaving early tomorrow morning. So, if you haven’t contacted your kids about getting together today, & you’re not sure anything is going to happen with them, I’d say give Dylan a call! They’re just going to be hanging out at the pool today. They invited me down, & I’ll probably go later since I didn’t get to see the girls.

Jun 16, 2024 10:12:30 AM +13108092136

BTW, they are all doing well. Dylan has transcended the Reynolds Family Curse, by leaving it all behind. Christina’s family are all very open, loving, bonding, help each other, etc. It saved his life, & I couldn’t be happier for him.

Awww…I know how painful it is to be the one who feels so intensely. You will always be that person, but I know your pain now, is transitional. The next chapter you’ll be signed with someone who is as feeling and romantic as you are…if you’ve learned anything here. Try to approach your next love interest with a bit of scrutiny; I mean, try to assess who they are at their core, without your bedroom goggles on. When we’re so hungry it can be somewhat fulfilling to bond with who wants US! Anyway, so much for my 2-bit sermon. lol Yes Bert, you can come anytime you’d like tomorrow. I may be out for a bit in the morning, but will leave the door unlocked for you. Your towels are on the stool. I figure after 5 x’s I’ll wash them…Are you ok with that?

I have an interview on Monday with a woman who is the human resources Director had a company called final forms. They are an educational technology company and provide software to schools and administrators to help them manage all the data about all the kids and teachers and everything they have to manage. Plus in different states they require certain documentation to be submitted and the software can generate all of that shit filled out for you at the bush of a button so that’s where the value is. Anyhow, I’ll ramble on when I see you and can tell you more about the job. I think initially I may have to spend some in person time with them, but I think I may be able to negotiate them covering an apartment for me. Anyhow I’m feeling very good about this opportunity. I have a lot of both professional qualifications, but also experience working at Thacher and Hatch learning, plus I’ve coached club soccer for five years with Darragh and I’ve been assistant coach of Thacher high school soccer boys for five years now and we made it to the state final one year and lost 5 to 4. We came in second place in the whole state of California and I was there, Coach, that was so much fun and believe me that will be a story. I will talk about in my interviews. I will figure out a way to weave that in.

So interview went ok. Had ALOT of wifi technical issues at the start. I didnt freak out, kept my cool and ultimately we ended up talking on the phone which was fine. I was able to mention all the things I had written down and I know their schedule of the process. They would be looking to bring this person on mid August with 2-4 weeks of onboarding in Boulder, CO. If I were chosen, or should I speak the manifestation and say, when I’m chosen I could stay with my Aunt Pat, cousin Tricia and her husband Don.

All done with my beachouse stint. It was so nice. Kinda sux to sleep back in the car. 🙁 Anyhow, I have a question for you about a somewhat serious matter.

Jul 27, 2024 10:42:05 AM (Read by them after 1 second) Me

One of the things that needs to happen for me to file for divorce is to have the court “papers” served to Liz after I have a case number, etc. They, the court, suggest either hiring someone, or having a friend do it. I’m wondering if you would be able to do that for me? I know its a BIG ask. It may even be stigmatizing. If you feel uncomfortable taking that on, I totally get it. If you are unable, could you help me find someone? It needs to be someone 18 or older. I was thinking Declan, but how weird is that? Not going there. What if you were to give them to Joanna to ‘serve’ Liz? Thinking out loud here. Or maybe it doesnt need to be someone she knows. What I do know is it CANNOT be me. Bummer, because I would be interested to see/hear her reaction.

Hey Sherry, don’t sweat it. I just figured out something once I have the papers ready to go. I can go to the sheriffs office in Ojai, and request that they mail the documents to Elizabeth. This is totally normal, and because it’s through the sheriffs, everything will be dialed in and done according to the law. So no sweat

HOLY COW!! You MANIAC‼️ LOL 😆😆😆 41+ %??? WoW I would nit be able to keep up! Sorry I didn’t get back to you sooner…The memorial for my neighbor was theeee best I’ve ever been to! 100+ people, buffet dinner of salmon & tritip, open bar, etc etc…started at 4 & I didn’t get home till 7:40! Anyway, I love the idea of us going to Wheelhouse together! I think we should also do the Wheelhouse LOUNGE in Port Hueneme bc I have a free admit ticket. They gave a tour of it b4 it was finished, & I’d love to see it now! I’m glad you were able to figure out all the legal stuff. I DO feel you’re right to do it, but it pains me at the same time. (To my knowledge, the problem with mailing, en lieu of serving, is that the recipient can claim they never received it; & at Thacher, if someone in the office signs for it, what proof DO you have?) I loved Liz before all this started. I think that was a shared sentiment, although I can’t be sure of anything anymore. I find myself regularly reaching out to her, or asking a question, usually with crickets for response…Joanna’s mantra is that she’s just SO busy. There’s no argument Joanna can’t defend. However, I guess I should take it as a sign of hope, that Liz WILL still reach out to me when she needs me to dog sit. And I love getting away from this cesspool of negative energy & noise, & enjoying the playful dogs, the quiet, the green, and the pool! So it’s a win/win. Speaking of which…This week, Mon-Friday!! I’ll be Dog-Sitting! So hopefully this time, you’ll have time to take Westie for a hike & show me the planetarium! 🪐🌖🌎 Oops! Gotta go! Casey is going to be here in 20 minutes! Keep in touch!

Hi Sherry, good morning I hope you’re well. I’m wondering if you could tell me if my brown bathroom bag is still in your apartment? It has all my medication in it. I’m down in Ventura so I’d have to drive all the way up there to get it. I’d like to know that you have it before I make the drive. It’s most likely around your couch area or somewhere in or around the bathroom

Aug 11, 2024 9:47:52 AM Me

It’s really important I know as soon as possible because it’s all my depression medication and my heart medication. If I don’t take it today I’m gonna start feeling side effects

Aug 25, 2024 6:40:28 PM Me

Hi Sherry, I hope you are doing well. I just came up from Ventura and I am in and around Ojai for a bit this week. I’m trying to get out of here and head to Colorado but money is an issue. Too much to text. Also I wanted to share that I know Elizabeth has the divorce papers. What I don’t know is her reaction to them and if she’s getting an attorney, if she’s going to “fight it”. And also the plausible possibility that she is reconsidering it now that she has paperwork in her hands I have no idea. Anyhow I wanted to give you a heads up as I know you sometimes interact with her and Joanna. I’m sure Joanna is in the loop on this Let me know how you’re doing and how things are going

Aug 25, 2024 6:43:15 PM Me

Oh, one thing I wouldn’t do is bring it up with them, the topic of paperwork, or divorce papers. If they bring it up fine, but if you say I know you got the papers they know you’re talking to me

Aug 25, 2024 6:44:00 PM (Read by them after 1 second) Me

And if they know you are talking to me they will likely hold back and not perhaps divulge as much information

Aug 25, 2024 6:47:15 PM Me

One thing to note is is I’m not trying to be scheming about this in anyway. I just wanna move on with my life 😊 I would love to talk to Liz about this but I honestly don’t think she would give me the time of day. So I filed paperwork and trying to move forward or somewhere

Ok. Thanks for letting me know. I saw Liz a few days ago Monday(?), at Sallie’s, after she had had an estate sale there. Funny she didn’t tell me it was going to happen. Neither did Joanna. But she seemed nice enough. I think she got ripped off y whoever she hired to conduct the Sale. It wasn’t staged well at all, IMHO. Ok I’m going to read everything you’ve been texting now…

I believe she got them sometime last week perhaps Tuesday or Wednesday. I couldn’t pay anybody to do it so I had the sheriff do it. I was able to look up online that they successfully got the papers to her

Im not getting warm fuzzies from Jo any more either, I think they both probably see me as having aligned with the devil! lol I don’t really have a clue WHAT they’re thinking. Liz rarely returns my calls or texts either. And David has moved in with Joanna, so maybe that’s wh why she hasn’t reached out lately.

Aug 25, 2024 7:00:01 PM Me

And for the record I never planned on crawling back to her. Why would I crawl back to someone who psychologically and emotionally abused me. The reason I was doing drugs and drinking as much as I was was because she was ignoring me. There was no intimacy no connection. I wanted to connect with her every day but you know it just never happened. And that went on longer than I cared to admit. I lost myself in my marriage. There was no Bert there was Papa there was Coach and there was whatever Liz considered I was. I didn’t feel like a husband. I felt like a roommate who did a shit ton of favors and didn’t see much in return. Elizabeth refuses to hear or acknowledge that she emotionally and psychologically abused me with her rejection as long as it went on but it’s a fact. She’s always thought that I’m too sensitive. And as far as I’m concerned that’s all fine and dandy. I am well on my way to integrating my shadow self, and once I do that and resolve all that past shit, with the shadow, I am absolutely not lost anymore I’m back to being Bert

The plan right now is leaving next weekend Friday or Saturday for Colorado. I’m still DoorDash a bit but I was wondering if I could come by and use the shower 😁

here is my chart from the astrology app. It explains where all the planets are in what sign etc. and the day and time of my birth and location are all part of the results you see so I don’t know how you’d get more accurate

OK, thank you so much. My DoorDash ends at 6:30 and I’m going over to my storage space for a short bit maybe an hour which for me is a short bit and then I’ll head over. I have updates on at least my own plans. Next weekend I should be rolling out of here.

Hi I came up to Ojai late this afternoon and I’m at storage place right now. I was wondering a, if you are around and if I could stop by. Earlier is better that way we’re not looking at 1 AM. Totally cool if you’ve got phone calls or busy or what have you I am here because I’m focused on my storage units. I have my money so now once I get storage done I can leave and head to Colorado and hopefully a change of scenery and a change of environment will kickstart my News thing whatever the hell that is. OK let me know I’ll check my text messages in a little bit

I think in a similar, past situation, Bert, I asked you to call & give me a heads up that you weren’t coming after all. Sharon had a new 🌸 she was looking forward for you to try, & waited as long as she could, needlessly. And regardless of HER, it’s pretty rude & inconsiderate of ME!! What confuses me is how you could possibly tell yourself it was alright to just shine me on! Friends don’t treat “Friends” that way!! Did you miss that information somewhere along the way?

I apologize for upsetting and hurting you. Not my intention. My perspective of me ‘mattering’ is still incredibly warped and something I am working on. I’ve been alone so long that it messes with me—part of my brain soup. So I go around thinking I dont matter because no one gives a sh*t—that’s my depression talking. But this ‘not mattering’ is something I’ve felt all my life, just couldn’t identify it before, it was ‘just a feeling’ Again, apologies on the ghost.

Oct 04, 2024 10:40:00 AM Me

simply trying to explain what I’m contending with in my head, its not intentional. Its awful old mental and emotional habits.

BS! I’ve never indicated to you, in any way, shape, form, or word that you didn’t matter to me‼️ Quite the opposite!! I’ve stood by you through thick & T H I N !! And you KNOW that. If this had been the first time you’d done this, I’d give you an easy pass…like I have before. Really Bert, if you want to figure out how to keep friends going forward, sacrifice a tad of your comfort zone, or the Story in your head you already know is really just Shit, and show up with for people, With Integrity. Talk to your shrink about your choice NOT to provide important (Liz), or considerate (Me) communication to people you care about.

— I have developing awareness about my mental illnesses making choices for me on auto-pilot that were hardwired since childhood. I just woke up to the fact that my entire life up to this “wake up” has been lived in fear and behind masks. That’s why I’m well acquainted with the trails inside the valley of regrets. I may be old in age, but I’m literally just learning things that should have been instilled in me as a kid—that i matter—it never happened. Anyhow that’s another Oprah. Telling a depressed person they are not well and they need to go get help on their own was my experience. The last thing a depressed person wants to do is help themselves or share their pain or story—they want to hide it all—reinforcement of the emotional/psych toll is depressions #1 objective, its how it stays ‘alive’ through thought conditioning until you’re blind to it. That’s why when people tap out from depression everyone says “OMG, they seemed totally fine. I had no idea they were dealing with that.” There is a DEEP sense of SHAME in having depression, and that you dont belong. ☮️❤️

You make stupid decisions that you dont matter—its the disease.

I invite you to FORCE YOURSELF to step into the NOW, Bert! Quit masterbating in your PAST! That hasn’t worked very well for quite a while, has it? IT HAS it?? Your depressed, victim upbringing WANTS to be released…set free…say Bubeye, and wake up to the love & caring, the beautiful things all around you, each day!! You’re physically being proactive in taking your next step forward, and that’s so commendable‼️❣️‼️🥳 Now get your fucking mind to get in alignment for your POSITIVE NEXT STEP!! …as you often profess that IS what you’re at now…after months of actively meditating… Maybe you can catch yourself when you know you’re acting out of integrity, & that’s a deep breath to examine if that’s what the “New Bert” wants to do. Love & Blessings, Bert . I DO care, or I wouldn’t be giving you the time off day right now. But, like “The one that got away”, I’m not accepting less than Respect & Integrity from Friends & Lovers anymore. They need to be able to show up & reciprocate.
