Hump Day Musings
I’m not sure where the term “hump day” originated but I first heard it as a teen. The idea of Wednesday being Hump Day and getting over the “hump” of the week and towards the weekend was quite appealing. I’ve been a bit impatient this week. Not heavily, but enough for me to notice. I…

Angry, Jealous, and Looking for the Lesson
I cannot identify the emotion that has me in a quandary. You’d think, considering everything I’ve been through in my life, that I’d know all my own emotions by now. But whatever this is comes with the agitation of a two-year-old discovering emotions for the first time or a teen first hit with…

The Empath’s Paradox
As an empath, I like that I can have that kind of connection to people I care about. With my girls, it’s really an advanced form of maternal instinct or bonding. I’ll often know when one of my kids is upset or stressed, even before Shannon swears she’s fine or Aislinn gives me her patented…

Sharing Visual Gifts
I went back and tried to re-create the orby thing on in a photo, but couldn’t. I took dozens of pics from the same spot, same angle, same lighting, same everything. Nothing. Visible only in this one photo, which was the first I took. I also, thinking maybe it was humidity, took several pics outside…

Mine for Now, Orbs and All
I have no idea how long I’m to be in this house before hurricanes drive me out, my job goes away, or I just get too painfully tired of my more repairs that must be done, but for while I’m here, it’s my sanctuary. For all the things that need replacing and repairing, I’m not…

Never Again the Burned Times
Arghhhhhh! One thing I get so freaking tired of is when any man from my ancient past—no matter how well or unwell we knew each other—gets dumped by a wife, girlfriend, or whatever, he tries to re-engage with me. Notice I say “tries to.” But I’ll put that on my wishlist. I understand if a…

“Mommy, Thanks for the Food Money….”
According to Dane Cook’s character in Employee of the Month, the Universe has a plan. Okay, so the movie wasn’t big on profound snippets, but it had a few, the best being his grandmother’s advice on kissing the girl. The movie was quite predictable but fun nevertheless, and of course, Dane Cook is easy on…

Snip, Snip, Snip
Part of my mentor’s role is to help me identify bad habits and replace them with good ones. That could as easily be patterns I’m replacing. Or programming. In any case, it’s a new way of thinking and new patterns to follow in my doing. One thing I’ve discovered in my new mindset that is…

My Cell Phone Is Haunted
My cell phone is at least 3 years old now. I’m sick of it, and I need a new one but I can’t decide on what I want and besides, who knows how long I’ll be in this area? But it does have my phonebook in it, which I don’t really want to switch over,…

I’m the Best Thing That Could Happen to You
“I think,” The Treat said very slowly, considering every word, “that you’re an Alpha female…who doesn’t know she’s an Alpha female.” That one statement almost two years ago has turned out to be a pivotal moment in my life. I didn’t realize it then. I’m not certain I yet grasp the full extent of it…

Future Flash
Every so often, I get one of those flashes of myself in the future. It’s usually of me doing something I can’t possibly reconcile at the moment. (Though I admit, the body swap sex flash? Oh, yeah, I’ve tried to resolve that one to see my guy’s face! Guess I’ll have to wait for empathy…

The Cards Keep Moving
Just an update on the Tarot cards on the Light Altar…. The King of Wands and Lovers cards have moved again, once more since my post a couple of days ago. Same cards, same place. Tonight, I walked in after a meeting with my mentor and they were unmoved. Five minutes later, I opened the…
