Merry Meet,
The last few months have shown how really bi-polar life can
be…I am happy to see you…grab you a chair and a soda and sit with me…life has
been more hectic than usual…lol…I know that is saying something…kick your feet
up while I fill you in…
My first defense was before my dissertation committee…my second
defense presentation will be before faculty, IRB, students and the public on
November 30, 2017…if I pass this I will be allowed to conduct my research…I can
see the light at the end of the tunnel…the third and final defense is when the
research is complete. documented and ready to present…I am pushing to graduate this spring
Nature’s Power and Energy has been a hive of activity…on
October 19, 2017 the HydroQueen was finally approved…on 11/08/2017 we were
issued a patent number and that patent will be released on 11/28/2017…this is a
little over 6 years since inception and 5 years from filing…now to market…research
and sales…pushing forward…
American Boudica has been moving at a snail’s pace…with so
much focus being diverted to completing the aforementioned situations- we have
chosen this time to work on creative skills (writing workshops, drawing classes,
photography class, etc.)...this will place us in a better position as we get
ready to be back at work…
The detail shop has been busy as people get ready to see
family on the holiday…they want it to clean to go and cleaned up when they get
back…lol…I love our customers…any car booked for this weekend gets 10% off
total receipt.
The Sunshine Paddle has been rather slow, and we had to call
off the holiday challenge this year due to my getting punctured by a stingray
while at Ft. Desoto…though we plan on continuing, it will just take some time
to heal…I continue to practice and get ready for Paddle 2018
In the Circle of Boudica, Yule is approaching fast…the winter
solstice for this year will happen on December 22…it has been a busy year and
we have much to be thankful for…the bonfire this year will be open to all who
wish to attend
FEMA inspected the house and verified the damage but, turned
us down as we were still living in the home…at first, I was very upset, then I remembered
that I still have a house and I am young enough to work to fix it…it is not up
to the government to bail me out…
I have most of the clean up from Irma complete…I am getting ready
to plant a winter veggie garden…Helmat has been running around with me…grandchildren
are awesome…he has helped as I have started winter pruning and planting…we have
been teaching him to ride a bike…I am thinking of getting chickens again…it
will have to wait until my dissertation is complete…as you can see my focus is
direct on the grandchild, school and turbines…my view will expand again shortly,
I promise…
Thank you for taking time to visit :)
Blessed be,
D. Cooper-Rooney
