Lacey saw something.
She isn’t sleeping with her ex-husband. But…she sleeps next to him regularly. It’s habit…and…their house has a room for an office…but…not for a fourth bedroom. It’s just functionally workable…even though they truly aren’t “sleeping together.”
Anyway…last night…she rolled over and saw her ex-husband asleep, as per usual. Without a shirt on. Well…more the back of his head and his torso. He looked…more buff and yet plump than usual. But…she obviously assumed it was her ex-husband.
Hours later…she woke up again. Peered over. But this time he was wearing a blue sweatshirt. Completely asleep. She suddenly began to wonder…
“Were you not wearing a shirt at any point during the night?” she asked him.
“No!” he said, mildly confused.
But…the man she saw during the middle of the night was definitely not wearing a shirt. And she saw him…clearly.
Who was that?
Seemingly it was Lem. She literally saw Lem sleeping next to her.
“Eww!” says a female hater.
“Why eww!?” says Lem.
“Because you’re dead!” she says, scoffing.
“I certainly didn’t look dead.” says Lem.
“Has anything ever like that ever happened to you before?” someone asks Lacey.
“No. He was entirely there.” says Lacey. “I opened my eyes…looked at him for a few seconds and then rolled over and fell back asleep.”
“Why did you wake up?” asks an Asian woman.
“I was rolling over and trying to get comfortable. It was in the early morning hours. So the room was becoming slightly more lit.” says Lacey.
“So it was totally normal and natural.” says a man in the Illuminati. “You just literally woke up next to Lem, momentarily, thought it was Mark, and then went back to sleep.”
“Yes!” says Lacey.
Mark is the name of Lacey’s ex-husband.
For some reason the Illuminati is terrified by this “ghost story.” It’s unclear why. Lacey has shared stuff like this with them before.
“Well…you prayed to God…and asked him, if He was truly permitting of it, that He’d allow Lem or whoever is your soulmate to sleep next to you, if they wanted to, before you fell asleep last night. I think that’s it?” says a Trump.
“No! That’s not it!” says an English psychic. “It’s the reality of it. That was more than just a full body apparition. It was more like he’d been raised from the dead. …And it begs the question of where your ex-husband was during that time.”
“We are starting to wonder if you and Michael’s sister actually saw Michael.” says a woman.
“The real Michael.” says a man.
“But then it’s just a so-called ghost.” says Lem.
An Asian woman rolls her eyes and nods in agreement with Lem. “Why don’t you just ask where the person goes.” she suggests kindly.
“It depends on the person!” says Zelda.
“Zelda…did you sleep with Scott…after he died?” asks a man in the Illuminati.
“Yes!” she says cheerfully.
“How?!?” asks the man.
“I thought I was just hallucinating. But I…wasn’t.” says Zelda. “This was clearly a man though. …In Mark’s case…he partially was in Heaven.”
“Woah! So…Mark was partially dead?!?” asks a woman.
“With Christ.” says Zelda. “He had a good night’s sleep!”
“You’re very protective of Lacey.” says a man to Zelda.
“I empathize with her. Greatly.” says Zelda.
“Wait. Was that Harold or Lem?!?” asks another woman.
“Lem. But…that’s far from a dumb question.” says Zelda’s mom.
“And this morning she is having a tomato sandwich using the same recipe that Zelda used to use.” says Zelda’s father.
“Well, not the exact same recipe but pretty darn near close.” says Zelda’s mom.
“With tomatoes from the farmers market!” says Zelda’s father.
“Yeah, we don’t have tomatoes yet this year.” says Lacey.
“So how’s your neighbor’s pool going?” asks Nancy.
“They’re being catty.” says Lacey. “They’ve decided to tear down their historic garage…and build a new one.” Lacey rolls her eyes. “Earlier they ripped out all the radiators.”
“It irritates me too.” says Lem’s sister.
“There’s nothing wrong with radiant heat.” says Lacey. “It used to be considered a luxury for a reason. …But…they…used water from our house and the neighbor’s to fill their pool. There above ground pool.” Lacey rolls her eyes. “It’s so ugly. …And now they’re being very exclusive about letting the neighbors use it. They put up a gardening stand on our property…to keep my kids away. And I sort of understand…because I have assertive children. But…it feels weird now. The gardening stand on my land…was a horrible idea on their part.” says Lacey.
“I agree!” says one of Lacey’s neighbors.
“We’re going to plant a tree there.” says Lacey.
“You’re going to buy a tree and plant it there?!?” asks a woman.
“More of a bush.” says Lem. “Nothing will get on their property. There are actual a few feet they don’t know about or forgot about.”
“You could just move the fence on the exact line.” says a neighbor of Lacey’s.
“But I like that old fence. It’s so lovely.” says Lacey.
“What the old owner of the house think?” she asks.
“He’s mad!” says Lem.
The woman shuts her eyes and takes a deep breath.
“Maybe you should move to a nicer house?” says a Bush, casually.
“Neighborhoods can all have their hang-ups.” says Lem.
“I’m looking into all of it!” says Louis.
“I doubt those people know who Paul Schurke or Louis Hill Jr. even are.” says Lacey’s neighbor kindly.
Silence.
Roger laughs. “I used to have long conversations with Lacey’s father about aliens. She has a right to talk about us as ghosts if God says it’s alright.”
“What?!?” asks a Fitzgerald.
“Paul’s father believed aliens might exist.” says Scott.
“They’re a brilliant family.” says JFK Jr.. “Good sailors too.”
“Your mom is Becca!” says a woman to Lacey.
Roger nods. “She was our project. We took her in like a daughter and she loved us until we died.”
“But she always referenced you as her friends.” says Lacey.
“Yes! She wasn’t out daughter! She was our friend. But we did try to make a difference in her life as fellow humans!” says Roger.
“Anyway…you should plant a bush.” says Louis.
“What if they built an in ground pool?” asks one of Lacey’s neighbors.
“That’s fine.” Lacey shrugs.
“Do they realize how much wealthier Lacey is in the house that she bought?” asks Louis.
“Their finances are very mysterious. Her husband’s job is well over six figures, she doesn’t work but it’s unclear how much money she gets from her family as an inheritance. Because you can’t use that to buy a house. …I bet he probably makes $160,000 or $170,000? I have no idea how much money those people make. But considering that his profession could be paying him easily over $300,000 a year, if he really tried and used his connections…or built connections…the new ones probably need to cool it if they’re trying to show-off. Because you’re not impressing them. Really, there’s no house in this neighborhood that’s ever going to impress Lacey. And probably not Mark either considering that his father’s house is an actual mansion in Maryland. And then his father has a lake house worth well over $500,000 along with the mansion. …And they were offered a condominium seemingly for $307,000 in 2010.
And you don’t know who I am, but I am not impressed by you either. …There are a lot of people in this neighborhood who are like that and they’re not wealthy like some people…but they’re not people who are going to be easily impressed. So if you think that you can just come into this neighborhood and buy that house that historic house because she and I both know how historic it is…and just start ripping everything out and tearing everything apart and causing problems over land lines you’re asking for trouble. …Don’t threaten them with lawyers. They have lawyers not on retainer but they have lawyers. And if you’re dumb enough to be reading this blog, you’re probably messing with an actual group of people who run the world.
I’m not intimidated by it, I’m really not. But that’s because of the social activities that I’ve been involved with for a while in the state. Don’t read this blog thinking that you figured something out. It’s the opposite.” says Lacey’s neighbor.
“Are there ghost in my house?” asks a woman.
“There are probably ghosts almost everywhere if there are ghosts; if there’s some sort of purgatory of that nature.” says a dead English aristocrat.
“So Lacey doesn’t like when we start remodeling things…but she’s not technically dead.” says a woman.
“No, she’s not.” says Zelda Fitzgerald.
“How much of a house could you guys buy if you moved?” asks a woman.
“We could probably buy a $550,000 house very easily. But with a little finagling, they could probably be in a $600,000 or $700,000 house. If one of her parents died, then no all bets are off they could easily be in a much nicer house. Especially her father. I mean if her father passed away she it would be hard to keep her in her house, but she might do it. Their long-term plan was to buy a lake house and keep this house as well, but if that doesn’t work they will begrudgingly move within the next few years. …And then you’ll have the neighborhood all to yourself and you can bully people and snub them all you want and it won’t be our problem. Unless if they have kids and those kids start crying and then I’m going to feel sorry that we sold the house because our kids can take it.” says Lem. “My kids are tough. They play with each other and someday in Heaven they’ll have lots of cousins on my side to play with as kids because God will definitely allow that to happen for my kids to play with their cousins as children…which is something that they actually may be looking forward to, and it’s possible that my kids already subconsciously know that have known that their whole lives; that they have family in Heaven. But not all kids are that fortunate to have cousins and siblings and a mom and a dad and another dad who love them. Genuinely love them. Lacey didn’t have that growing-up. If she has a father who’s dead she didn’t know that and she kind of knew that but she didn’t really know that. Yes you are dealing with Thomas Banks, and no you don’t wanna do that in Minnesota, trust me.”
“Was he ever in the governor’s mansion?” asks a woman.
“Many times.” says Roger.
“Did he ever meet Louis?” asks a historian.
“Do you realize who you’re talking to? If you’re reading this blog do you realize who she is? I’m not telling you to be a coward and not stand up for yourself if those if her kids really are threatening to you or your kids. But I think you need to realize that you can’t snub her. It doesn’t work.” says one of Lacey’s neighbors.
“ so lame you were angry. If I’m understanding this correctly, you were angry when you made your long diatribe speech about how Jack made you not lonely.” says a man.
“ I was mad as hell at Jack. I’ve been saying that to Lacey now for a while since the first time she read that post. I was actually very bitter and extremely angry. That’s not how people chose to take it at the time who were liberal and listening. There may have been a few people in the audience who knew what I was trying to say, and didn’t misinterpret my tone. But I can almost guarantee you that at the time there’s at least one man listening who knew that I wasn’t necessarily saying something nice. And then I was being very passive aggressive and actually quite hateful. Because there’s a lot of secret condescending digs at Jack in what I said. I felt as though he had taken me on a wild goose chase, ruined my life, married a woman himself lived his best life, got shot and then left me holding the pieces. I tried always work with Jack, and it was never a problem because I was never out of the closet and I was straight. So I never struggled with that because I secretly wasn’t bothered by it. But I always felt indebted to him, and I always felt as though I needed to be loyal to something about myself romantically and it was like he was my first love, and that was always my ideal. You know that was always my ideal. It was to fall in love with a woman and then live with her for the rest of my life. But I thought I was gay, so I thought no I can’t do that I can’t. I can’t do that, but I’ll be loyal to Jack, and in doing that I will still maintain some faithfulness to the way that God probably intended to create me, because I saw homosexuality is a deformity. And I acted gay out of a sense of personal responsibility. I didn’t want anyone thinking that I was straight and getting confused and falling in love with me or you know, umm…misunderstanding something, thinking that I was a better person than I was. Of course, Lacey wouldn’t have cared one iota and I needed that…but she wasn’t there.” says Lem.
“So how much does Lacey get from her family in a trust that she apparently can’t use as official income?” says a woman.
“That’s not something that I want you to know.” says Louis.
“So they really can’t use that as income?!?” asks the woman.
“No not when it’s from oil. There could be differences in different situations but when it comes from oil, no the price of oil is so variable it’s…it doesn’t work.” says Louis.
“Why are you claiming she has an inheritance now?” asks Casi.
“Because if they read this blog, they aren’t understanding and I thought that might help them understand.” says Louis.
“So your families are both middle class. And their families are not and they’ve told you that they could buy a house for $550,000 fairly easily now on this blog…but I don’t think that they would. Because I don’t think they want their budget to be that stretched. I I think you need to stop being insecure if you are. Because I know that you’ve become insecure the more you’ve talked to Lacey and Mark. If you’re insecure. Lacey is extremely beautiful and you’ve noticed that the more you talk to her. She used to be even more pretty in person. She was breathtaking when she was young and she still is pretty, but she was breathtaking.
Mark worked at a country club as a lifeguard. He didn’t just work at some beach somewhere. He worked as a country club lifeguard but he didn’t share that with you…if you’re reading this blog…because he didn’t feel comfortable sharing that as that’s not something he would ever admit to, but it’s what happened. And there are other things that he could say that would be scary to you if you heard them in person and they’re all real. There are people right now in Boston making 400,000 a year who were impressed by marks Perlence and they have literally said so they have literally said he is the smartest person that they’ve ever know when their whole life. He was on the math team as a kid in the chess club. He really is that smart.
And my son is very eccentric. His record collection is very unusual for a kid, his age. But if you were to go to one of the top record buying places for 78’s in Minneapolis, the man who owns the store knows my son by name as they used to be in that shop a lot and he loved talking with my son because my son is brilliant. And my daughter is going to go to the best schools, very easily. They’ve researched that and I’m sure you have as well.” says Lem.
“So if there is an Illuminati it’s not just the mob that’s watching. It’s literally the Biden administration and Putin himself. They can read my thoughts and that’s how I’m on this blog right now?” asks a man.
“Oh yes, they don’t generally take quite that much interest in someone who isn’t directly relevant to their pressing issues of the day.” says Louis.
“We can’t really afford to put in an inground pool and in our minds we’re going to use the garage not just a store things. So that’s our thought process.” says a neighbor.
“Why haven’t you told him that?“ asks Louis.
“Yeah, Paul went Will Steger to the North Pole. They were the first to cross the north pole, unassisted in a dogsled.” says a woman.
“Told her legal husband that?” asks a man.
“Yeah, I’m scared because I’m realizing how serious what I’m actually doing is and I’m realizing that I probably if I’m reading this blog should’ve been a hell of a lot more careful. I think I see her as an artist if I read this blog and maybe I don’t if I don’t read this blog at all. …But if I do, it’s actually slightly scary because I’m realizing that if there really isn’t Illuminati, see people probably are watching me at this point and yeah we probably shouldn’t be trying to play games if that’s really all the problem is.” says a man.
“I think it’s just your attitude you don’t seem to realize that the people around you really are not beneath you just because you have one of the more expensive houses in the neighborhood.” says a man.
“Why don’t they just finagle a $700,000 house? I don’t get it.” asks a woman.
“ because the finagling isn’t worth it it’s too much stress they really aren’t like that they are not first walk. That would be a very bourgeois thing to do to need a $700,000 house to be happy they don’t need that. They like their house they like their yard they like where they live for the most part and frankly I don’t think they want to buy a $700,000 house even I think with it like to buy as a house worth closer to about 1 million and either North Oaks white Bear Lake or the nicer area of Saint Paul. Or buy a house worth half 1 million in Duluth because that’s where they like to buy their Lakehouse next to Lake superior. Yes, in 10 years these people that your snubbing well on a lake house next to Lake superior and if you’ve been nicer about the pool because you blown it at this point you could’ve been using that Lakehouse because they would’ve trusted you. And if they move to $1 million house on the nice part of St Paul or at North North Oaks million dollars today in the future, maybe closer to two you could be at that house visiting showing off saying we have friends that live in North Oaks or we’re going to go visit our kids friends over you know your Summit Avenue. You blow in that that’s never going to happen at this point unless if some thing dramatically changes. And there’s not a damn thing you can do about it so deal with it that’s what you chose to do. That is the price of admission to reading this blog. The thing is you’ve stocked her. If you’re reading this blog you’ve stocked her, you’ve searched her online and you know things about her that you don’t admit to knowing. And people do that, but she hasn’t done that to either of you and you know a lot because she is an artist she does have a blog and that’s fine that you’ve chosen not to say anything but it’s getting to be too much. Because as much as you will never have a bad conversation with these people and she’ll never tell you what she really thinks about your crush that really does break her heart because it’s a beautiful garage you can’t you can’t replace that.” says Lem.
“ oh, no, we thought this through if there’s an illuminati, the English knew that ghost could be real and that by allowing her to be with these men who were both doing the right thing, possibly saving her life, possibly protecting her, possibly giving her life back, we also knew that they would be able to do stuff like this. You really don’t go around the world stepping on peoples feet, their toes, thinking that it won’t do anything just because they’re a former empire, not current.” says an Englishman in the Illuminati. “You know that’s part of the reason that they live in their house too. Umm…they don’t want a house that’s going to be bad in the future if they choose to live in England for six months.”
“ so your cousin owns a $6 million state your first cousin. How old is she?“ asks a man of Lacey.
“ she is in her 40s she’s around Lacey‘s age they played together as little girls on her father‘s family‘s farm.” says Lem.
“ why don’t you ever visit her?” asks a woman.
“ because I don’t even want to bother her. My parents are divorced. My fathers actually remarrying this summer. And when they separated, when I was 20 a huge rift happened in the family and I chose my mother side. And that if we needed me from all of my cousins on That side. I don’t know if I’d be visiting her more than once a year or once every few years anyway, we were never that close. But I probably have been to their house at least once if not a few times maybe couple of times if that separation hadn’t happened.” says Lacey.
“ but you’re on speaking terms with these people?” asks a woman.
“ yes oh yeah, no before I died. We had been talking about getting together and if I had been in better health and if things have been better between people, somehow it’s possible that her father lied to us and didn’t tell us how willing she was to meet with everyone. He’s not necessarily the nicest man. and I mean the father, who raised her. We probably would’ve met at Breckenridge at least once because that was a family tradition to go to Breckenridge.” says Ron, Lacey’s uncle.
“ so Lacey‘s family Summers wear and then they do winter stops at Breckenridge where do the summer?” asks a woman.
“ well, they run a lot of of stuff, so they’re not just summering they do work.” says Ron. “ but no, I mean we took family trips to Breckenridge frequently every year but we were also lived in Colorado. I was a comptroller there for quite a few years but it no you know we we visited Breckenridge where do they summer ask Lacey.”
“ Midsummer our lake house on the lake in Maryland privately in the summer time we spend a lot of time there in the summer.” says Lacey’s ex father-in-law.
“ we own a new house relatively new within the last 20 years we built the house next to a big lake.” Says one of Lacey‘s cousins. “ perfect our daughter was married there and Lacey was at the wedding. We have a great beach on our property and we just go outside and spend time on the beach in the summer and sometimes we do a little boating him. Our family are part of the Nesheim family has a collective Lakehouse that’s been in the family since the 1940s or 50s.” says a woman. “ oh, and her father has a small little shack basically on lake Mille Lacs.”
“ your father has a little cabin on lake Mille Lacs?” asks a woman.
“ yeah I mean it’s just like a double wide trailer but it’s right on lake Mille Lacs it’s only worth maybe like 200,000150. It’s not that expensive but I mean he bought it with a friend of his and now that friend is dead. But they used to JetSki and my father bought the JetSki’s and they do ATVs he bought the ATVs. He spent a lot of money on that cabin and the JetSki’s, and ATVs and all that with that front before the front died.” says Lacey.
“ what did he die of?” asks the woman.
“ he got skin cancer. And he waited too long and they removed it and then I came back and spread and then it was the end.” says Lacey.
“ yeah right yeah, right!” says a woman. Then she closers her eyes.
“ so where do we summer? Well, there’s the family Lakehouse in our little family and then it shines. My father was Lacey‘s grandmother’s brother. And my niece and my daughter are both Indy celebrities. They’ve done modeling. She was almost Miss North Dakota but then she abdicated the crown. The thing is actually the whole family has a history of running for beauty competitions but anyway, the thing is oh and actually going to Lacey‘s cousins was the local tv journalist for a while in the 1990’s. Where do we summer? I don’t really know that. We’re summer anywhere other than our cabins. My family that lives next to the Puget Sound do you know who goes to the beach but actually they spent they used to spend they’re getting older now, but they used to spend a lot of time hiking mountain mountain climbing. For wilder people who did ceiling, they went, yachting canoeing, white water rafting, very outdoorsy. Skiing is huge. We have been in international skiing competitions for decades. We’re no one frisky part of ski club sweet do a lot of skiing. We’re also part of the lot of Norwegian institutions. That’s very involved with our Norwegian heritage. It happens all very long time. But I guess you could say that if we summer somewhere, it’s just sits at a cabin we go to our cabins and apparently her former in-laws are the same. They go to their Lakehouse they go to their cabin.” says a Nesheim.
“ so your father has a little rinky-dink place on lake Mille Lacs that he bought with his boyfriend? Who I bet was a lot younger than him. And that he left your mother for? I bet he was but 10 years older than you? Yeah I bet you probably know they’re not letting is bisexual or gay you can probably sense that if that was your father. And I bet he was probably really into like analyzing people, the one that raised you. What other lakes in Minnesota? Does your family have cabins at?” asks the woman.
“ I don’t know, but there is another lake where he visits his cousins. They have a Lakehouse to and a boat and he goes there and he’s invited me to go with, but I would just be very awkward, so no, they have some sort of a house on the lake I don’t know the lake though, but it’s up north obviously.” says Lacey.
“ and her great aunt owned a resort on a lake in Minnesota.” says Evann.
“ they did they did they did we on the lake resort for decades? We’ve been dead for a while now but-“ says Evann’s husband.
“ how did your mother know the Sharkeys so well??” asks the woman.
“ they met through a church.” says Louis.
“ where are you guys if we go to camps?” asks a man.
“ I hate camp well OK I went to camp a few times as of a violist. I play the viola camp but other than that it just seems like a horrible idea.” says Lacey.
“ I wouldn’t trust them either anymore. Are you kidding me? Absolutely not no there’s no way that if I was her I would ever trust people in that situation with my kids.” says Louis.
“ violet, white, white white bear lake why not like Lake Minnetonka?” asks a man.
“ because Lake Minnetonka is getting overpopulated.” says Lacey.
“ put orthosis getting run down.” says a man.
“ yes but it’s not that rundown and I might not choose to live there. But Lake Minnetonka it’s just it’s too built up. I was at a Lakehouse very big Victorian house that was owned by a family that used it way back probably in the early 1900s their family actually helped start the mayo clinic. And I’m sure that house has since been torn down, but it was right next to the water. I’m sort of a little island. And at that point, the water was still pretty clean. It was private and it was really lovely. I played with the kids and we went out on the boat and I raspberries with the kids and we dipped in the water and it was just lovely but I don’t even know if that house exist anymore they probably sold it for like $12 million back in the 1990s I mean this was a long time ago. But I am then I made about house I like Minnetonka at this point I never would.” says Lacey.
“ I don’t like Lake Minnetonka either.” he says.
“ why is that?” asks Lacey.
“ it’s me those people are stuffy and pretentious.” he says.
“ see you think I’m stuffy and pretentious?” asks Lacey.
“do you know your intimidated by her and you’re playing games she’s not stuffy and pretentious. You didn’t think she was good enough to live next to Lake Minnetonka I could read your tone. And know that you realize that she’s not really intimidated by them at all and that her family is loyal and maybe really Israel and they actually really do you have a $6 million states and etc. etc. I think you’re starting to realize that she could just buy a house on Lake Minnetonka for 2 million someday in today’s money. But she truly doesn’t want to. I’m sure it’s not the $6 million stayed at the $11 million stayed on lake Minnetonka. But I think you have to realize there are people in her family were 30 million and just one family and they’ve been millionaires since the 40s or 50s. She really isn’t intimidated because I’ve been through the same process through that you’re going through right now. And it seems to be a very common mistake with her and her family people assume things that they shouldn’t assume. And as I say that if Lem wasn’t gay at all, it’s not any coincidence that one of his ““ biographers constantly says we can assume we can assume we can assume. However, that old saying when we were kids, assuming makes an ass out of me and you. And that’s what we’ve done I don’t keep assuming.” says Casi.
“ are you planning to buy a boat your old people that lives there before head canoes they never bought a boat is that why you’re building a bigger garage to put in a boat or a second car when that makes sense.” says Lem.
“ oh yeah or just a second car when our kids get older.” he says.
“ no I mean that makes sense. Just keep in mind though that you need to be careful.”says Lem.
“ what could your cousin on a lake Minnetonka?” he asks.
“ I am going to have to list the addresses for you. 546 Harrington Rd, Wayzata, MN 55391.” says Lacey. “ I will just stop there.”
“ and what could you guys buy if your father died this week before he gets married?” says a man.
“nothing worth buying. With interest rates the way that they are right now. No even $1 million is barely enough in that area to buy a house worth buying.” says Lem.
“ so you would be inheriting a decent amount of money probably around 1 million and then you’d be getting oil money too. Unless if you sold your oil for millions of dollars. In which case then you’d have millions of dollars all right but then you would have the oil and I’m sure your family would not like that.” she says.
“ so then you’re inheriting 1 million but your cousin inherited six?!?” a man asks.
“ yep!” says Lem.
“ and I bet other cousins haven’t heard of more too. Why is that?” she asks.
“ because on her mother side, her mother was an English high school teacher and she was divorced, and she lived in her parents house until she died, practically in children, nursing home for a while. And on her father side, he chose to be a party boy and him when he was in college he smoked pot and bought clothes and went to parties. And then his father cut them off, paid for his education, but cut off his bank account, and he majored in anthropology sociology, and got a degree in that, but then chose to spend his GA money and not on getting his masters degree and being a doctor of anthropology, sociology as he planned to do. But instead he used his G.I. Bill after vacationing in Myrtle Beach during Vietnam. To go to Bethany’s school of missions in Bloomington Minnesota for three years. He was going to be a missionary to Africa with Mel, who has English aristocratical family, and wanted to marry him. This is not made up. Truly. But then through 10 a man whose family actually is Ethiopian aristocracy, his family was murdered during the communist revolution and then he escaped on an airplane. There’s a book about him. This is awesome not made up. Anyway, he was friends with Lacey’s mom and he was friends with Lacey’s dad, and he introduced them at Whitney in Bloomington. And so they liked each other right off the bat and they both are from the same area of North Dakota and they got married. Lacey‘s grandmother approved of her father’s family thought it was wonderful that Lacey‘s mother was marrying into the family. They were very well respected, as well as were the Nesheims. Anyway they got married and the rest is history but now he has 2°. He has another probably sociology degree and one from Bethany school, visions, and being a missionary. And no, her parents never were missionaries to Africa. They just decided it was a lovely idea for a while and wasted thousands and thousands and hundreds of thousands of dollars.” says Lem.
“ so they were going to be missionaries?!?” she asks.
“ yep and actually like the server people lose his family has have done mission work for yours. She has a cousin who traveled all over the world and then came back and is currently a physical therapist or no physicians assistant. She’s doing something like that and no, she was almost dead from malaria in Africa.” says Lem.
“ so in a way, Lacey is kind of like a pastors kid?” says the woman.
“ from an elite old money family yes.” says Lem.
“ so if they kept their house now and just sold, it broke, they buy in Duluth if her father died?” she asks.
“ an old Victorian house, 3000 ft.² on London Road next to lake superior for just under $700,000.” says Lacey. “5014 London Rd, Duluth, MN 55804.” She thinks. “ actually it’s closer to 3500 ft.².”
“ that house is a wreck!” says a man.
“ yeah but if your summer house and we’d be able to put in money, I mean we could easily restore it and we just live here.” says Lacey.
“so you outright on your present house and then you’d be restoring that house slowly with hundreds of thousands of dollars you’re getting from oil so you won’t even go into debt and then you don’t both houses you’d have a historic mansion on Lake superior were 3 million and your current house?” asks a woman.
“ that was the idea yeah. Why can’t she do that explain.” says Lem.
“ see when I frame in terms of buying a house on lake Minnetonka I feel better than you even though that’s absurd because we couldn’t buy a house that was like I don’t like Minnetonka either. But then when I come back to the reality of your cousin, owning in a state, I like Minnetonka out right and her husband and probably making $170 beyond that. and then you being able to finagle some thing the thing is we would hate you hate you if you bought that house and restored it slowly we would hit you with it outright loathe you.” she says.
“ why?” asks one of Lacey’s neighbors.
“ because it just I psychologically can’t do anything other than that. I’m sorry that’s the way that I was raised as a millennial. I just can’t be happy for you in that way. I just can’t and that’s sad but I just can’t.” she says.
“ so then you’re basically saying they can’t over their house once Lacey inherits her million dollars which is really just $1 million when’s Lacey inherits her million dollars then she can’t she get on her house because you’ll make it a problem for her if she does what she wants to do with her own money that you have no authority over.” says her neighbor.
“ so if people in our community would be wealthier, you guys would hate us too? Or would we be OK if we weren’t as young and beautiful Lacey her kids were not smart her husband wasn’t as handsome?” asks another neighbor.
“ I need to punch my husband in the face when he explains why we’re planting a tree or should we just not bother?” asks Lacey.
“ how about this? How about we see what happens but how about if I Pine is in England and if there’s reincarnations walking on the land where I am buried and Lacey is buried we look around and see what Lacey would have to buy and north oaks to feel safe and not targeted, and if that’s not possible, then the illuminati is going to have some deaths in the near future.” says Lem.
“ we’re dead you’re not supposed to be talking to us because now the mystery is was me who is the British aristocrat was lame. What is it? Someone else was Lacey even a Scottish aristocrat God knows we don’t or do we?” asks Michael.
“ she’d have to spend more on the house than she wants to and the truth is they probably buy the following house at 712 Linwood Ave, Saint Paul, MN 55105. Or something like that quiet million dollars not on lake Minnetonka but I think she’d prefer that house anyway.” says Lem’s dad. “ what would you do if they bought that house year from now literally because if her father died next week they genuinely could buy that house send about a year per house like it very easily. I mean it would be easy as pie they have to fight themselves not to.”
“ or they would buy the following address in North Oaks, 99 W Pleasant Lake Rd, North Oaks, MN 55127. And then eventually buy some thing in Duluth or are they not another lake somewhere for five 600,000 and no one in North Oaks were bad and I I mean they either buy this house out right or they be very close to it and then within a year or two this is the house they would buy in Duluth.” says Louis.
“ that painted brick concerns me I might not buy that house for that reason. But no, we could basically by that I mean we could technically if my father died by that out right but I would want to spend all of my money on just the house.” says Lacey.
“ true but that’s the thing they were basically on that house out right or something like it and then within a year. This is what they have is their Lakehouse and if I am a ghost I actually am directing this conversation because I really am not angry. Marty is extremely sensitive sweet little boy. Be careful when your attitude starts him. You don’t have to be his friend, but don’t make him feel like he’s bothering you if he’s not really bothering you. So they probably build a house somewhere next to lake superior or they buy a house in gramarye for around $500,000. And then you wouldn’t have anything to do with him and Le Mans to ask a question at this point..” asks Louis.
“ would you ever see these people again or would you just let your kids forget that they ever existed?” asks Lem.
“we will probably just barely ever see them again.” she says.
“ so then you guys really are intimidated by your neighbors?” asks a neighbor.
“ I I’ve research what you write and I know that you make everything up. I know this block is totally facetious.” says the woman.
“ you’re bluffing because that’s just fundamentally absurd why are you making such a fool of yourself?” says Lacey.
“ oh, you think I’m bluffing?!?” she says.
“ no I know you’re bluffing. The US government would say that you’re bluffing the Internet would say that you’re bluffing reality it’s self would back me up I don’t make stuff up. I’m sorry if that’s scary to you.” says Lacey.
“ no you make stuff up!” she says.
“ no, I really don’t.” says Lacey.
“ so you really don’t make stuff up?!?” she says.
“ yeah I really don’t make stuff up.” says Lacey
“ then why don’t you just buy or build a much nicer house?” she says .
“ because they like the house they’re living in they like it the way that they bought it for the most part they like the house.” says one of Lacey’s neighbors.
“ see I thought because we weren’t living in such a high priced neighborhood that I would have a problem with this. But I think I Know I have misunderstood something about reality the truth is millennials can’t afford houses so the fact that you guys bought your house and presumably could’ve owned a much nicer condo than most people ever live in so your father-in-law offered you guys like a $300,000 condo and 2010 that he owned for free he just offered the whole thing to you three”.
“ yes, yes, for free the whole thing.” says Lacey.
“ what does their lake house look like and their house and how much is that condo worth now?” she asks.
“ the condos worth about $450,000 maybe $500 something like that. Maybe just $400 something around that. Their Lakehouse is worth seven or 800,000 and their house that they owned that they mostly live in isn’t worth home around 2 million maybe a little over 2 million something like that. …Actually, their home might be worth closer to 3 million out their main house but I was right in my other estimations.” says Lem.
“ has Mark been to the lake house?” asks a man.
“ yes she sent him pictures of herself when they were first dating him when he was at the lake house because she was worried it actually wasn’t unfounded. He went to a bar with his family near the lake house and almost went home with someone. He really was very difficult to date.
Her ex father-in-law is a financier. He went to Harvard business school. He went to the University of Michigan. He was a partner at his firm spending most of his time in San Francisco flying back-and-forth. He’s been to their house I mean they just saw him this last spring. You’ve never seen him, but he does exist. None of this is made up sweetheart. He is paid very handsome. I will say 700 800 1 million a year he’s not a CEO but he does quite well.” says Lem.
“ so that’s Mark’s father.” she says. “ and his mother was a math teacher, but she was like a really great diver and really good at swimming.” she says.
”yes, that’s correct.” says Ron.
“ and he was in a frat Mark was in Sigma Chi?” she asks.
“ yes Yep!” says Lem’s father.
“ and his meds the family?” she asks.
“ he has a brother in Boston who works in IT. And he has a step half-sister who is going to school and riding horses in the south.” says Lacey.
“ and I suppose his mother is in the White House?” she says.
“ no but that’s not that impressive. I mean I have friends that worked in the department of homeland security that arguably could be in the White House. I could’ve been in the White House. Weird it’s just like we were saying it’s not that big of a deal. I’m sorry..” says Lacey.
“ what kind of car does your father drive?” she asks.
“ he drives a Honda. He thought about buying a BMW but he decided not to. Ron drove a Porsche before he died.” says Ron.
“ I bet you anything after he gets married he’s going to be buying a BMW.” she says.
“ I don’t know there was a woman interested in him for a while for that would’ve probably been true. I’m not sure if this woman is like that I’m not sure what’s going to happen.” Lacey laughs.
“ it was difficult for you to buy the house. They are in wasn’t it it really was it wasn’t do you like the house but the areas not where you planned on living?” she asks.
“ that is absolutely right on the nose!” says Louis.
“ your kids know that.” she says. “ they’re not snobby, but your kids know that you’re from a higher class than us and sometimes it can be awkward talking to them.”
“ yes and it’s self-defense. Isn’t that sad?” says Louis’s wife.
“ I never felt that way.” says a man. “ because I came from a background where there were foundations in my families name I knew how to talk to kids like that. I have a feeling that I would’ve probably gotten along fairly well with Lacey‘s father-in-law and her father probably more her father. I have a very strong suspicion. Her father and I could be friends. I don’t know why exactly, but God sense I would be able to let down my guard around him. I know I find women attractive but I probably would be able to let down my guard around him and we would probably understand each other. Something tells me that he’s had friends like me his whole life and we are a little different. I wasn’t rich, but I put expectations on my children and let’s just say this is awkward.” says another man.
“ if I’m reading your blog, I don’t think it’s gonna be awkward to see you, but I do feel kind of stupid.” she says.
“ why did you decide to be weird? It was going so well.” says Lacey.
“ it’s possible that I read your blog and I don’t know it just so got to me I don’t know what else to say.” she says.
Later.
“ OK where did your father go to school? Where did your mother go to school? Where did your father-in-law grow up? Where did Mark’s grandparents go to school? Where did your grandparents go to school and what other impressive connections do you have?” asks the woman.
“ her impressive connections could take all day to diagram, we’re not answering that question. Her father-in-law grew up in Ohio. His parents went to Ohio State. He has a first cousin who teaches at Harvard. If I really wanted my son to go to Harvard, I could figure out a way to get to get him in. I don’t think that’s where my son is going to go to school. But we’ll see.” says Lem.
“So his father really is the man that I found you went to Harvard business school and he’s related to you guys has a house in Maryland as first name starts with a K?” she asks.
“ yeah that’s Mark’s dad and reality she has pictures she could put them up on her Instagram account.” says Lem.
“ her father went to the University of North Dakota. His parents didn’t do much in terms of post secondary education. I think his father went to some local school, but he was brilliant and he really was. He was very smart. He retired a millionaire in the 80s.” says Louis. “ he was a farmer had a mechanic he went to some trade school to be a mechanic. His uncle was knighted by the king of Norway and of course, all of his kids went to college. She paid for everyone’s education and they did very well and he was the president of the school board and his wife was the church pianist and no but they didn’t. They didn’t have much in terms of post secondary education.”
“ when he retired, I assume he sold most of his land to his son, and that’s how he retired?” asks a man.
“ yes and he had a wife with very serious medical expenses and now they were millionaires in the 80s he was very smart” says Lem.
“ what kind of a man’s man?” the man asks.
“ very much, so yeah, very much so.” says Lem.
“ what year was he born?” asks the man.
Lem laughs. “Ah…1913. Exactly 100 years before his grandson great-grandson excuse me. So yes, my grandfather through marriage that she was raised by us three years older than me.“
“ when was her grandfather on her mother side born?” she asks.
“ that she was raised by? 1910. My grandfather on that side that she was raised by is six years older than me.” says Lem laughing.
“ when were her parents born?” asks a psychic rolling her eyes.
“ her father was born in 1894. So 22 years before I was born. He could easily be my father based on age. Her mother we’re going to let that one go for now.” says Lem.
“I am so actually crazy for Lacey to think that Tami Wentz could be her father. They look a lot alike and there’s a lot of evidence suggest that as possible I mean it’s not crazy they really do look alike like they look a lot alike and her father knew him he works for him. I mean you guys seriously it’s not a stretch there is Margie Margie’s real Margy if Lacey’s illegitimate is definitely Lacey’s mother. Thelma is documented that was his mistress, was kept kept trying to see Lacey so in this case it’s not one of those things where she’s trying to get some thing. If anything Thelma felt like Lacey was being kept from her and it’s kind of in reverse of what you see, in like a sensational stories, where it’s nonsense. So when Lacey‘s parents do die, she will be doing genetic testing and it won’t be 100% full proof, but will find out for sure so to speak. And if she is illegitimate, and she may not be, but if she is something tells me that it might not even matter because I have a feeling, Tommy Banks probably actually is communicating with her and introduced himself because he maybe never had kids and I don’t know we’ll have to ask him someday, right?” says a psychic.
“ so her father that raised her, kept her from Thelma?!?!?” asks the woman.
“ yes, Thelma requested to see Lacey see pictures of her numerous times, and he always ignored her or a flat out to client in a rather unpleasant way.” says Lem.
“ her daughter does look like him too slightly.” she says.
“ yeah, she has his chin. Whether that’s his granddaughter or not, she has his chin and parts of his personality.” says Lem .
“ so her daughter really is British. They’re British right?” she asks.
“ yes, they are British.” says Lem.
“ so if she’s illegitimate her mother was a flight attendant in the 1980s she was really pretty and I fell in love with an old rich man.” she says.
“ yes and he fell in love with her and it was consensual, and they were both adults and he was from an error that was still possible without being creepy.” says Lem.
“ and she was Norwegian?” she asks.
“ yep she was her family might’ve had a farm somewhere and no she just was excited to travel the world and then she went to college and she was very intelligent funny well spoken beautiful woman. Lacey has heard about her and her luxe have been compared to her and they do look something like she had very high cheekbones. She was very beautiful.” says Lem.
“and her father was the son of merchants who are wealthy in Iowa?” she asks.
“ yes!” says Lem.
“ so she considers him her father now if that’s her father either way, she considers him her father and I have a feeling there’s no bones about it.” she says. “ as in he’s just a side of us if it’s true dispel my hate her family or how is that going?”
“ there are certain things we are in allowed to talk about even with Lacey and that might be one of them. At least not publicly.” says a dead woman.
“ did Thelma retire well?” she asks.
“ oh, yes, Thelma retired on millions from Tom.” says Lem.
“ and she was actually his mistress before his wife died?” She asks.
“ yes, she was a Swedish farm girl and I think she was his cook and she was a dancer at one of his clubs and no that was long before his wife died. He had several mistresses, but she was his favorite.” says Lem
“ is that why is that the reason that her father, who raised her used for why she couldn’t meet, that she was sort of tawdry trashy woman be honest.” she asks.
“ yes, that was implied but it may have been complete hogwash. It was just a way to keep Lacey from asking too many questions.” says Lem.
“he was terrified for his kids, wasn’t he?” she asks.
“ given his chosen line of work yes, when his mother died that was very Trumatic for him and yeah, he didn’t want his kids to have to suffer. He was very loving, but probably not someone to mess around with.“ says Lem.
“ where did Mark’s brother go to school?” asks the pencil skirt perfume hater.
“ he went to a private university and Massachusetts.” Says Lem.
“ and he works in IT?” she asks.
“ yep!” says Lem.
“ and his sister went to a prep school and has been riding horses since she was young and is going to some university in the south?” she asks.
“ yes to do the same thing that Lacey‘s first cousin once removed is doing marine biology he’s very smart. He studied in an ocean in Asia for a while if I’m not mistaken those are Ron’s grandkids.” says Lem.
“ which private university?” asks the man.
“ it was just northeastern. He just went to Northeastern. He played on tennis teams but now he he has a house worth far more than yours in Boston that he owns please and he went to Northeastern.” says Lem.
“ so he went to Northeastern and has worked in IT since it was early 20s and it’s probably in the management position but he’s still single and he just has kind of a 67 800,000 maybe million dollar house in Boston?” he asks.
“ yeah yeah yeah any other questions 00 yes her mother went to a state school in North Dakota and got an art degree in the 1960s. Her grandmother on that side went to the same state school in North Dakota, and finished her teaching degree and taught English for 25 years. After getting divorced she taught in a one room school house in the 1930s and 40s before that well 1940s maybe 50s I think for a while Dupitt know then she got divorced in the 60s and went back to school and talked for 25 years. And her ex-husband went to UCLA and apparently studied at Juilliard for a while.” says Lem.
“are there people in your family that really own planes?” asks the woman.
“ there have been and boats. what else you got?” asks Lem.
“ what schools are in each family?” asks the man.
“ well, Lacey went messiah college for four years. She should’ve graduated, but she didn’t. She also went to university of North Dakota. Mark went to Union in Schenectady. Which is considered a little little ivy. Do it his father had him apply to Harvard, but Mark didn’t do very well in English classes. He wasn’t eating too badly but he didn’t do the best him. His test scores were very good though. Yes Messiah College in Pennsylvania. Yes, it’s a very hard school to get into for some people. And yes she got in with flying colors because she was an AP classes and she’s very smart and she went to a good school. She went to Jefferson in the 1990s in Bloomington West Bloomington. Lacey grew up in West Bloomington. You’ve never asked her that. And as you know, there’s a difference between Bloomington and West Bloomington Lacey grew up in West Bloomington. Her parents do not like living in bad areas, even though they chose to live a rather mediocre lifestyle.” says Lem. “On the Nesheims we have NYU, Harvard, Johns Hopkins, University of Washington. There’s actually a renowned highly esteemed professor, who teaches at the University of Washington. Boston University. Purdue, Creighton. NDSU, UND. UCLA. And then there are other private Christian schools. We won’t list all of us. And private state school I mean state schools you know like we won’t list those either.” says Lem. “On the Craft side UND, NDSU, several schools in Colorado, Colorado state. The university of Minnesota Duluth. And I actually think that might be about it.”
“so the people are multi multi millionaires, and they just went to like UND?” he asks.
“ well, I was the president of my frat and he did leave out the US Naval Academy in Annapolis.” Says Ron.
“ and you were in the honors program that you would dare and you almost joined which sorority because you really they wanted you desperately and that sorority?” the man asks.
“ yes I was in the honors program at UND. They did not want me to leave. I started to preservation society and then I thought that I should go to school at Messiah college and it was a mistake and it wasn’t. Tri delta I would’ve joined. Tri Delta if I stayed.” says Lacey.
“ and Mark was in Sigma Chi?” he asks.
“ yes he used to have a ring from Sigma Chi that was made of gold, but then he got rid of it but yes he was. He was in Sigma Chi.” says Lacey.
“ and he graduated with honors probably like magna, cum laud or something like that?” he asks.
“ yes.” says Lacey.
“ who could you have married? Seriously who could you have married? If you didn’t looking for someone who has money who could you have married and where did they go to school?” he asks.
“ well, the first person I ever slept with went to UCLA for grad school and McAllister college for his undergrad and he was the captain of the soccer team there a Macalester. I may have been able to marry him I don’t know, but I wouldn’t roll it up. I for sure could’ve married a guy named Joe, who went to Saint Thomasfor his undergrad and Case Western Reserve for law school. He’s a lawyer. I think there was a likelihood that I could’ve married another guy named Joe, who also went to Saint Thomas for his undergrad and went to Iowa State and UND for grad school and is now a teacher at a fairly prestigious school in New York. I could’ve probably married a guy. He went to Augsburg college and works in IT. It’s not and then there was a guy at UND who could’ve gone to MIT he got in, but he chose to go to UND instead. He has done very well. He’s very smart and he works with computers he I don’t even know what he does, but he’s very smart. I think he was starting his own company for a while.” says Lacey
“ he was old money wasn’t he?” he asks.
“ yes!” says Lacey.
“ I left out Gonzaga.” says Lem. “from the Nesheims.
Later.
“ so you can’t channel people against their will beacon channel demons impersonating them. Unless they’re spiritually vulnerable through sin as an adult in their current life.” says a psychic.
“Yup!” says Lem
“Then how are we talking to these people?” she says.
“They’re just talking to you.” says Tom.
“Channeling is something else?” she says.
“Yeah, in a way.” says Tom.
“What is channeling?” asks a priest.
“Being somewhat possessed?” wonders Lem.
“By a demon?” says Lacey. “It’s seemingly different. My ghosts are just there. Like living people.”
“they’re really just there and they’re like they’re really it’s like they’re really they’re like it feels like they’re there but they don’t have bodies.” says Summertime Sadness.
“ yes I know I’m very confused and logically I don’t know what’s going on and I pray about it often. No I mean it’s what’s puzzling to me is I don’t know what I’m supposed to do. Do I need to be faithful to like Lem’s? For instance, I shouldn’t be dating anyone else because it says it’s like I’m married to him for eternity even though I’m not dead yet which is actually wonderful, but it’s terrifying. Or is he my imagination? Is he a demon? Don’t know I don’t want to violate God’s order. I worry that I’m supposed to be with Michael or Harold or Louis and that I can’t hear that clearly from God because I’m not supposed to be talking to the dead anyway. That being said I am praying about it I’m working with God that’s the best I can do and it seems like it’s just one. It seems like I’m married to lame forever I can’t 100% guarantee that but that’s what it seems like at this point. And by the way, I really am sorry if I hurt your feelings, I really didn’t mean to be hurtful to you. I don’t think that’s likely at all.” says Lacey
More later.
More tomorrow.
