Maybe She's Mental

Listen to your body talk:  I arranged a date with man I met on an online dating app.  He was actually more interested in me as an interview preparation helper than a date and he told me that, but I thought, hey I'll help a guy out who said he's feeling scared and sad.  But my body had other intentions.... never made it to that lunch date... I found myself on the couch again unable to move with an aching head and upset stomach.  This happened to me almost identically a week ago when I had planned to have coffee with a different man I met on an online dating site.  This one was actually married and still living with his wife, but online I guess for friends.  I wound up on the couch all day unable to move. Hmmmmm I'm thinking my body is keeping me from these encounters.  SO I removed my profile and I'm back to life sans online dating.  Thanks to my cats who snuggle me on the couch all day long whilst I recover and to Coldplay who ended my nig...

I love to pay attention to the animal messengers that appear in my life, the usual and the unusual. I know it is support arriving in some form.  I don't always even have to figure out what it means, just that the arrival is there and I am noticing it.  I am aware.

When I pulled cards for myself (usually 2), I got Master Jesus whose card had the theme of forgiveness and Brigid whose card emphasis was inner strength. I felt the support and cried knowing The River Yan...

I'm almost fully recovered from a neck immobilization.  Oh how lovely it is to have neck movement.  Even washing your hair or putting oil on your face is painful.  It doesn't matter how my pain and immobility arrived, but today I'm observing the lessons it has taught me. So many things are swirling around you in your world.  Child relationships, child health, parent interactions, lover and romantic partner 'dancing', career satisfaction, your contribution to society, dusting and making sure the cat litter is cleaned. ;)  Oh and dishes... there's always dishes! And then you neck stops working and actually doesn't allow you to sleep.  So you stop.  You must.  You are unable to even lay your head down on the pillow without pain.  And there's your portal.  Time is stopped.  You are suspended.  You are given the chance to look deeper into the conditions surrounding the onset and the relief of the discomfort.  In my case...
