Test Post & Changing Blog-Rachel Holbert-Jones Page, Sunset SC on Lake Keowee #ravenblackheartllc

 I renamed my blog and it's now nowhere to be found so I'm wondering where it is. When I figure it out, I'll come back and make a proper post on renaming a blog at google's blogger.

This is just a test, for now.

Okay, so I rename my blog here on blogger because I realized today and had completely forgotten that I had moved many of my Haunted Abandoned posts to my wordpress blog at https://rachelholbertjonespage.com and was in the process of moving the haunted posts that I haven't yet moved to the wordpress blog to my new blogger blog. I lost my adsense account due to being hacked and Google allows one personal account and one business account and I haven't yet been able to get my new blog(s) activated. Today, I got an email from adsense telling me my old blog had been deactivated. I know this. I deactivated it because it continuing to earn money but I can't withdraw it. I've emailed Google multiple times and have tried every way I know to get back into the adsense account but someone has changed all the details I need to get in. I don't know why they haven't withdrawn the money, it might be because all of my information like tax information and is there (the hacker can't see it) and when I first got my adsense back in 2005, they sent a letter via the postal mail (I don't know if they still do this but back then they did and it had a pin or some kind of number/letters that had to be verified which I verified) and they couldn't change the personal information. Who knows? I started trying to regain access nearly two years ago and periodically will try but after months of trying and getting nowhere and no help from Google I signed up for a new one. Unfortunately, getting an adsense account now is much harder than it was way back in the mid 2000's. I mainly wanted to get a new blog activated for adsense is so that when my YouTube channel is ready it will all be ready to go and I can monetize my YouTube channel but I may not even need it. Since I started posting videos about my homeless situation and living in my car I've gained a lot of new subscribers and have been so behind dealing with the litigation I'm involved in that I haven't yet posted a video about the reason I'm in my car and I'm not even sure I can legally post about it because we are in the appeals process right now and if we win, which will be a big if, and that's with all of the mistakes and errors the trial court made, it would most likely be sent back (remanded) to the trial court and the litigation would start all over again. We've already been involved in it for over two years and it could take the appeals court another year. Plus, I have three motions coming up in a few months and the person that took the property and evicted my husband took a pickup truck from the property and put it into storage and is now trying to get the title to pay storage and other fees. This makes absolutely no sense to me because the truck did not run, wouldn't start and it had previously been to a mechanic that said it had so much rust on the front end that the whole axle needed to be replaced, the speed sensor was bad due to bad wheel bearings and the mechanic said it would probably need a new transmission when it was all said and done and just the rust and suspension was going to cost $3500 and this was before the problem where it wouldn't start. My husband left the keys so if he tried to start he knows it won't start and it's not a battery, alternator, starter or fuel pump so who knows what is wrong with it. But it won't run. The mechanic said to take it to the scrapyard and everything happened so fast with my husband having to get his stuff out and as much as he could into his car and getting what he needed to live/sleep in his car, that the last thing on his mind was that truck or getting it out of the yard. He stuffed so much in his car that we had to make several trips to my storage unit to get the stuff out just so he sleep in the car or rather get the seat down so he could sleep. The passenger seat (and the driver seat too) go flat unlike my car which does not go flat but I'm used to it and my car is smaller than his. He said the car is a little tight but it could be a lot worse and it's running okay especially since he took it to the repair shop and had some work done. He doesn't sleep in the driver seat because it has a power seat and it sticks and the last thing we need is for that to stop working, plus, it's more comfortable in the passenger seat. I can't believe I slept in the driver's seat for years when I traveled. It is so much better in the passenger seat. I started sleeping in the passenger seat because my car has a full power (six way) driver's seat (meaning the back that usually has a lever to adjust the back part is power too) and I was afraid it would go out and it does stick but I no longer adjust it because I don't have to. The passenger seat went out almost a year ago. Fortunately, it was only the up and down part and it was adjusted almost all the way up but I keep the seat all the way back just in case.

I got way off track rambling, like I usually do and have had a few people tell me this (rather complain about it).

My point on the blog is, as soon as I changed the name from hauntedabandonedcarolinas.blogspot.com to https://xie-qi.blogspot.com and clicked on posts I'd already published it initially said the blog had been removed but after a few minutes it started redirecting to the new blog. The one thing i don't like is that when I punch in the old blog name in google it doesn't redirect, instead it just says, "the blog has been removed." I don't like this and don't understand it.

It will redirect after a few minutes and when you type in the new blog name in the search bar it will go straight to the blog. From the post menu it pulls up a little differently and redirects rather than going straight to the new blog but that's okay. People that click on it will go straight to where they need to be.

So, basically, this is me starting all over again. Starting the blog all over again. I changed the name because it no longer reflects what I want it to. My wordpress blog is going to be for my haunted, abandoned posts, not this one. This one is about my car living, work and other interesting stuff I throw in and articles.

Until next time……..My story………………I’m Rachel Xie Qi Holbert-Jones Page and this is my story: living part time in Iva, South Carolina (Anderson County SC) and part time in Hartwell, Georgia on my boyfriend Malachi’s boat, a 1986 Chris-Craft Catalina 381, at the Hartwell Marina which technically doesn’t allow liveaboards so I can only stay there sometimes. He purchased a 1996 Holiday Mansion 39 Barracuda, a 1977 CHB Trawler 34 (I’m remodeling), a 1986 Marine Trader 54 Sunliner that I’m updating. Malachi and his brother purchased a 2018 Sunseeker Manhattan 52 and a 2001 Nordic Tug 37. I still have the 2001 Adventure-Craft 2800 in the Outer Banks that I’m currently not renting (but call home) because I’m behind on rent payments but I have the ability to go back to once I catch up (The landlord is a friend). *********************************************************************** I’m still taking care of my aunt in West Virginia but not as much anymore and hoping not to have to return to Memphis, Tennessee. We are scheduled to get my aunt moved to Dead Women Crossing, Oklahoma but it keeps getting moved farther out. I’m still traveling and road tripping for work and have been to my Uncle’s ranch in Alpine, Texas to oversee it and the cattle he retitled in both of our names, Texas Longhorns, Scottish Highlands, Brangus and show horses. He’s also added some Bison and Beefalo to his ranch in addition to his other livestock. I still have a lot of familiarizing to do and I’m very happy to learn about the cattle, horses and the ranch. ************************************************************************* For my work travels my uncle purchased a beautiful blue 1995 Ford E-150 Econoline GT Starquest Campervan. I wasn’t sure at first about him purchasing an older van like this but the man that owned it previously had completely converted it with solar power and electrical and while it was priced higher than he wanted it was a great deal for all of the work the owner had done. It only has 112k miles and since I haven’t driven it much and it was purchased in January 2024, it still has the same mileage. It only has a sealed portable toilet but that is okay because I prefer a public toilet and only use a camper toilet if I’m dispersed camping or at a Walmart and have no choice. I prefer rest areas and truck stops and only stay at a Walmart or Cracker Barrel if I must. For short trips, I drive a car or SUV my Uncle gives me. ************************************************************************* I have an avid love for photography and capturing the essence of old, abandoned properties, allegedly haunted places, classic, antique vehicles, lakes, rivers, nature and historical places. I’m not a ghosthunter or paranormal investigator although I’ve had people request me to lead their groups, I’m a legend Hunter which means I love to chase the legends. I love scary podcasts and spend more time on YouTube or Audible than Peacock or Tubi. I used to watch TV or movies when I stopped for the night but now I usually go right to sleep when I stop and prefer the podcasts of Darkness Prevails, What Lurks Beneath or Swamp Dweller. I like to listen to scary trucker stories too, occasionally Carmen Carrion or grizzly/polar bear attacks. On Audible I like books but have only finished one or two so it doesn’t really pay for itself. I do like the Dateline Podcasts. I’ve recently developed an interest in the law and like google scholar and casetext for research, medium, wordpress and blogger for writing, YouTube, listening to van lifers and people living in their cars, SUV’s and RV’s. I like Facebook groups geared toward van life, camping and road tripping, unsplash, pexels and pixabay for public domain photos, pinterest, instagram, reading, greek mythology, the metaphysical, ebay, shadowlands (for places that are supposedly haunted) and the internet. ***********************I like creating videos, photography, blogging and going to car shows when I’m not working which consists of scouting for investment properties and rehabbing/remodeling those properties after my Uncle and his business partners purchase the houses. We also remodel old boats and restore classic cars. When not working, I like camping, photography, museums, historical places, art galleries, antique shops, anything old and driving deserted back roads. I’m also into fitness, weightlifting (although I haven’t been doing much of it this winter because it’s cold and I like to exercise outside), nutrition, healthy eating, gua sha, face rollers, beauty, fashion and recently tai chi and yoga. ***************************************Visit my blogs at https://rachelholbertjonespage.com, https://sassygrrl32x.blogspot.com and https://youtube.com/sassygrrl32 *****************************************By Rachel Xie Qi Holbert-Jones Page AKA sassygrrl32 & Haunted Legendhunter & Bourbon Street Blogger *******************************************For my name change: First, it is part of my rebranding and second I wanted to take my great-grandmother’s maiden name and incorporate it into my name for heritage sake. Xie means “thank” in mandarin, it dates to the Nanyang in the Henan province, annexed around the Western Zhou dynasty (1076-771 BC). In ancient chinese it meant “acrobat skills” and “flying upward” as in a bird. The Xie family name was found in the USA in 1920 in Wisconsin. Da Xie means to “express one’s thanks” and Xie Mei is “harmonious and graceful.” ************************************************************************ Qi (Che, Chi, pronounced chee) means “the circulating life force whose existence and properties are the basis of much chinese philosophy and medicine”; “the energy in everything”; “vital life force.”; “flowing vital energy.” **************************************************************** In traditional chinese philosophy and medicine, qi is an unseen energy that flows through everything, binding all things together within the micro and macro elements of the universe. And one more interesting tidbit: Low Bow (bowing as low as you can) is reserved for people of much higher stature than yourself and indicates deep respect. ***********************************************#rachelholbertjones #rachelxieqiholbertjones #sassygrrl32 #sassygrrl32x #Iva #SouthCarolina #Hartwell #Georgia #andersoncounty #livinginacar #vanlife #nomadlifestyle #carcamping #roadtripping #boondocking #carlife #livingoffgrid #vandwelling #vanliving #personalblogpage #legendhunter #haunted #abandoned #rhjonespage #rxqhjp #rxqhjonespage #rxqhjpage rxieqiholbertjones #rachelxieqi #rachelxieqiholbertjonespage #xieqiholbertjones #xieqiholbert #xieqi #sassyaftersixty #deadwomencrossing #oklahoma #westvirginia #memphis #tennessee #sassyaftersixty #bourbonstreetblogger #bepositive #prayer #GodBless #vitallifeforce #flowingvitalenergy #unseenenergy #taichi *****************************************As a side note: To explain my homeless/houseless situation, my ex boyfriend sold my house without my permission by signing the purchase agreement online and not talking to the buyer. The buyer was a wholesale agent in Florida, the house is in North Carolina, so there was never any meetings. The wholesaler sold the contract (reassignment) to someone else. My ex BF took the money. Unfortunately, we had joint accounts. We are now in litigation (with the buyer) and are currently in an appeal and I have several motions set for a few months from now. There were a lot of discrepancies in the contracts as well as a number of errors the trial court made. In one contract I was listed as my father’s wife, my address was wrong, there were many mistakes. The whole thing (closing) took place out of state. I’m looking for my ex BF so I can take a lawsuit on him but he lives full time in his RV so I have no idea where he is currently. He has a post office box and several certified letters have been sent but went undelivered and I’ve certainly not told him I’m trying to serve him with a lawsuit. The last known address I have for him is in Arkansas and he uses his brother’s address in Tennessee (summons has been sent there too and went unserved by the sheriff). ****************************************************I just wanted to share, a lot of people on my YouTube channel wanted to know the story and many don’t understand how someone else can sell your property out from under you but it happens. It happened to me. It was inherited property and many of my friends believe I was targeted. This isn’t something I can really talk about in my videos. I have a little but I have to be very discerning on what I say and technically I’m probably not supposed to be talking about considering I’m seeking to sue my ex boyfriend for his part. I’ve tried going to the police but they couldn’t help me. They said it was civil matter. So there you have it. #rizzoreipartners #davisislandersllc
