Tonight I’m at the Nashwauk City Council meeting introducing CHKN Run Transit 🐔
A simple loop connecting Hibbing, Keewatin, Nashwauk, and Chisholm—no scheduling, just show up and ride.

This is something I’ve been building for a while, and it’s exciting to start sharing it with the communities it’s for.

Still working on final stop locations—more to come soon.

Ask me about CHKN Run Area MN 👇

I’ll be at Mucho Sí in Nashwauk after the meeting if you want to chat about it.

2nd ER visit yesterday morning yielded the following -

Home oxygen and a $209 Sybacort inhaler

That single inhaler just killed my budget
No way can I do that each month

I had $395 left over after expenses - for food, prescriptions, auto fuel and entertainment each month

I checked and can get the inhaler from the pharmacy in Mexico. We have a friend who goes there 2-3 times a month so I’ll have no problem with this next month

Wanted to go live but talking uses up too much oxygen right now so I’m sharing in this post my experience, the issue and how I am resolving it.

I don’t let anything stop me as I continue to create this very personal identity. I spent 2/3 of my life letting everything be chosen for me -

I was raised to endure to the end and that type of thinking didn’t teach me to be strong, it taught me to be meek. I humbled myself beneath people who were not deserving of it.

I don’t have time to waste. This experience in the last 72 hrs has taught me that it is now time for me to actually LAUNCH 🚀 all that I have been planning and working on these past 3 years.

CHKNrun.com and the ‪@CHKNrun-MN‬ will be my future - i love Chisholm, Hibbing, Keewatin and Nashwauk MN and am excited to be a part of sharing what we have here !!!!

my “FACE IT !!! You’re human” series will start up on this channel by the weekend !!!

I have a lot more life to live.

Every breath is another chance and another choice. Kim D. Heye

P.S. waking o2 levels on 2.5 L was 95

Almost forgot - yesterday in the ER my levels would drastically drop each time I fell asleep and the alarms would happen—- next step sleep study for sleep apnea

Having a COPD flare
No fun
It is exhausting not being able to breathe

I am being monitored by health professionals while at home and will head to the hospital if it is decided that it is warranted

The hardest part is not being able to talk much. So I will rest and recover.

A friend has been helping me take apart an upright piano - getting ready to take the harp out - I’ll try to remember to get some pics and video. It’s not everyday you get to take apart a piano

My grandson is off to prom

He didn’t want his jacket to “look basic” so I did some needlework and his mom made the bee

He loves it

What do you think of his suit jacket??

What are you doing this weekend???

I’m using this Easter weekend to look at the differences between being a Mormon “Christian” and a Trinity Christian.

This has the potential of an intensely personal and emotional weekend.

Grateful for the support system that I have created to help me deconstruct from this cult.
