Hello guys. So in this video I just wanted to talk a little bit about our trip to Michigan. We just came back from like four days ago. And just to chat about life after this, okay? I actually have not recorded a video for like more than a month now. The previous videos were all pre-recorded, maybe like May. May or very early June and today's July 21st, one day before my birthday, so my birthday is 22nd, but you'll see this video much later. We're actually gonna go have a little bit of a party with my friends and their families with kids.

This evening, so in about five hours of video, since I'm kind of in good spirit somewhat. and just have an opportunity and it's just the reality from ACs all to get progress. It's easier for me just to talk to you. Like somebody actually in comments, a few years back, commented and said, Maria, you need to talk. It's just something I'm going through. It's easy for me to talk anymore. I'm starting over in that sense.

So it was definitely a highlight of this year. Early in the year, I put it in my vlog. It was first time away from my daughter, my husband for many, many years. It's kind of exciting. And it was quite a new travel without your children. It's 13 hours of my flight. You know, it's a little uncomfortable, but most of the time, like I chatted with the lady next to me. She was like a designer.

About life and about social media for many hours. It was so nice, travel by themselves, at least at some point in life. It's very different. You have so much more time with your own thoughts. You actually notice things about yourself that you might not other people. Even if you don't think about it, you still are putting what you say, how you say it. Sometimes it just requires to Michigan. We've been put one of our goals to go to Michigan.

At least one of our goals to go to Michigan. a year now for at least two weeks. My husband's family live in Michigan on one of the islands in Great Lakes and there's so we kind of been being just surrounded by each other. Everybody can be themselves more. There's little to no expectations. Just as always, we rented a house on the lake. It feels different when I'm next or near water or in the water. throwing in the water to be my cold as much as possible either travel or take in California yet yearly fires so there's a few weeks every year where it's like a terrible quality in the air

so I really feel for you people are physically early July and amazing sunsets after the 4th of July so they allowed more fireworks after that so people were really going all out So our house was on the lake at the end of the harbor, and we didn't know about it. The July fireworks that are organized by their city council. Them setting up, shooting up into the water, and he's shirt, not on fire, but like land feels different. Midwest, we should really travel, travel there in winter one time. That feeling when you surround once a month, or at least, after grandparents have passed away, just as famous. Looking for adventures, running around behind chicken, teasing cats, going to the woods.

There was barely no cartoons, no TV was interesting. Just go and watch cartoons with my cousins in our village, and lived or used to live. It's a small island, just live nearby. Not on the phones, not on TV, just chatting, creating memories, doing crazy. In California, I don't even live in a big city. It's quite a small. city actually like um really any supermarkets let me have like a safe way that's the biggest store we have there are cities there's no space between the houses so you can only play in yards or in designated parks which is great i hope you're okay with i've traveled with them in our suitcases we carried them when

my daughter picked up because she thought it looks like water which it does had her this little gardens and people's front yards and you see these giant butterflies just flopping around it I was really happy to that she found quarters a lot of time asking me like can I buy something I'm like well I don't have any quarters like how about you start earning your quarters and then you can buy yourself where she would do chores you shouldn't when she ran I feel like you know she really did a great job so I give her a great job I'm like you know what I'll give you a quarter you did a wonderful job I feel like that's how I was given my time to university.

They would give me money and I would go out to clubs and restaurants. Value, I didn't understand how much. As soon as I got here to the United States, there was my first job working in a hotel and I was making a $7. I were taking away some of that money from me as well. So I was getting like maybe $4 an hour. I just looked at it as my first time actually feeling what it feels like. Your energy was always.

on something, energy costs. It feels uneven all the time, but I thought earlier. It's one of my philosophy, how much of your energy, how much to charge what it feels like to spend your energy. Different jobs are find yourself, so you can find your way works in this world for some people. We'll deal with every single day. Right now we, because you had to pay for internet.

Well, you just have to know. know what it is, feel yourself, the value of money, and as she understands, not being able to show her what years it said early in life in a few years. Would give her a loan, and I would say, okay, I can buy it for you or I can give you money for it. But then, I will give you your allowances, take away the portion that would belong to me. Because it makes somebody money, so it's advertised. I personally, my kinds of... It was this. I loved it. I come to see you next time. Recording many videos for you from here. I really missed actually recording videos It's been more than a month. So got this hoodie for me. I don't see a lot in hoodies because I've seen a lot in hoodies because I was so blown away. This one was my favorite one. Talk about it enough, but

Great Lakes in some areas feel like the Caribbean. The sand is like going over your feet. So soft, so precious. They are shores, at least in some areas, are quite shallow for a long time. Actually see from the top the difference, the drop off. And you see, it literally feels like a freshwater gradient. Here's another one, just one of the cherry. Apples, they have a lot of wild apples, which are real apples. It was like September or October.

Two days, pretty kind of pretty forest together with this. This is one of the sisters' house and we turn my first painting I found and then I started looking at that. Isn't that beautiful? Go to our house. This one's really I just needed for an additional color. So the colors would look the same emotional attachment to this one. Like Earth's up and that's not exactly what our whole church here or our neighbors are great. I don't feel like to build from where I am. It would not change the thing. Any besides my back? Anybody else's illusion? Before I complice I do, I do stretches now twice a day, like 10 to 50 half an hour solid a day.

Twice a day before bed and half. Upper back, TW exercises also twice a day. So you lift or surface layer. Do you see a difference? I have myself, I have to keep a peat. Personal level. I have stopped with you like a little tadpole. I already know I love gardening, but because of a weighting thing,

They only do very tiny things, but cooking and where they did a competition, I'll tell table show I'm starting creating an extremely immersive dish. They want to add flavors. I'm like not afraid of in flavor as much as I can and really go out of it zone and kind of feel myself. And I usually cook really, you know, easy-going everyday meals, but I like, I try to elevate it asleep and...
