That key is usually the MICROPHONE key EXCEPT in Google search on my Android.

I’ve got this thing I do on my phone sometimes without meaning to. I just discovered what causes it. When I go to use the microphone key in Google search, sometimes it turns into a “switch keyboard” key that I don’t see before touching it. Then my keyboard turns into a real small one. I usually notice it in Facebook. But I have to get out of FB to fix it.

I first see it when I go to comment in FaceBook. This weird little keyboard comes up instead of my regular keyboard. I remember in the lower left at some site I saw some kind of little keyboard looking symbol I wondered what would happen if I pushed it. What happened was it switched to the small keyboard, after which there was no little symbol in the lower right any more to return to the old keyboard.  I FINALLY KNOW HOW TO GET BACK TO THE OLD KEYBOARD!    Continue reading →

The last 6 months I’ve had one side of my tongue swell up in an “allergic reaction.” I’ve never had food allergies that I know of.  I know our system changes over time and allergies can move in and out, 2 Benadryl stops it within 2 hours or less.  A couple of nurse friends tell me it would go down on its own without the bennies. These are the dates it’s swelled up. I’ve listed what I ate the previous day to determine what the trigger may be. My uneducated guess after reading these notes thru 6-28-18 is that I’d eaten ham each day EXCEPT for 6-27-18 where I did eat ½ a turkey burger.  Note, the past 6 months I’ve had packaged ham every week with no problem, I think the sodium from the processed meat (and Tums and Alka Selter Plus) may have caught up with me and is detoxing out my tongue.  I may have taken 2-4 Tums each day.
Research online tells me meat allergies develop when the body’s immune system becomes sensitized and overreacts to something in the environment that typically causes no problem.  I’ve included links showing symptoms I may be developing a meat allergy. I’ll tell you, my inner guidance tells me I don’t hafta stop meat altogether but I could definitely use a rest from it and I can ingest far less of it in the future. Good to know.

Even the chillest of us have them at times. Those PTSD flashbacks about stuff you thought you was long over, triggered by the simplest of events. The last 2 days have been — I was going to say rough on body and soul — but nothing is rough on the soul. That’s some myth my mind makes up to make excuses for why I’ve attracted a few rocky days. Don’t get me wrong, nothing drastic happened. It began with a 4 hour delay on Friday that me pouting about dominoed it into an overly long workday. I knew I was snappy so I turned down an offer for help so I didn’t drag anyone else into my vibe. When I’m pouty, I’m happy for physical work done on my own to take me out of it.    Continue reading →

A friend asked what chants I have found helpful, significant, these are ones I say daily in rotation. The first chant is the Sarva Mangala , the Durga mantra. It basically is a Hindu version of “Blessed Mother who oversees the material world, bless us and protect us.
”Sarva mangala mangalye, Shive, sarvartha sadhake,
Saranye triambike Gowri, narayani namos thuthe.

Phonetically:
Sar’ va man’ ga la Mahn’ ga lay
Shi’ vay Sar’ vaa tha’ Sad’ ee kay’
Sha’ ran yay’ Tray am’ bee kay’ Gowri
Na’ raya nee’ Na mos’ too tay
Na’ raya nee’ Na mos’ too tay (repeat the chant in sets of 3)

I was asked today about the MECHANICS of changing thought and then a few friends got emotional over the TOPIC and shifted the convo away from the process. That’s exactly how we get derailed in the manifestion process. We let ourselves get distracted and derailed. Don’t let EMOTION of any TOPIC prevent you from remembering the PROCESS. The process of relieving a situation by removing your attention from it, by replacing the thoughts of it with thoughts of something else, something happier and more optimistic.

I’d posted on Facebook that one of my favorite quotes was “As hopeless as any situation feels it’s really only your thoughts that you are dealing with and you have the power to change those” by Louise Hay. FB friend Sharon asked, “What about the kids taken from their parents? How is that just a thought I am dealing with?”    Continue reading →

I’ve been asked where to get the below info.

1. How to apply for US citizenship. To become a U.S. citizen, you must have had a Permanent Resident (Green) Card for at least five years. NOTE: You do NOT have to be a citizen to be legal. You must have a green card to be legal. See https://www.usa.gov/become-us-citizen

2. Green Cards and Permanent Residence in the U.S. See https://www.usa.gov/green-cards

3. Apply for a Green Card if you are eligible Form I-485 (see https://www.uscis.gov/i-485) – Application to Register Permanent Residence or Adjust Status with USCIS, including all supporting documents and fees.

4. How To Get a Green Card https://www.dhs.gov/how-do-i/get-green-card
A Green Card holder (permanent resident) is someone who has been granted authorization to live and work in the United States on a permanent basis. As proof of that status, U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS) grants a person a permanent resident card, commonly called a “Green Card.”

You can become a permanent resident several different ways. Most individuals are sponsored by a family member or employer in the United States. Other individuals may become permanent residents through refugee or asylee status or other humanitarian programs. In some cases, you may be eligible to file for yourself.

General Application Process
https://www.uscis.gov/greencard
The steps you must take to apply for a Green Card will vary depending on your individual situation. However, here is the general application process that most applicants will go through:

Someone usually must file an immigrant petition for you (often referred to as sponsoring or petitioning for you). In some cases, you may be eligible to file for yourself.

After USCIS approves the immigrant petition, and there is a visa available in your category, you file either a Green Card application with USCIS or a visa application with the U.S. Department of State.
You go to a biometrics appointment to provide fingerprints, photos, and a signature.

You go to an interview.

You receive a decision on your application.

JUNE 2018 Horoscopes

Aries – (March 20 – April 18) Pay attention to nuances this month, Aries. A meaningful glance speaks volumes. You may have to brush up on your mind reading technique, but the effort pays off through improved relationships and more cash. Mars stays in Aquarius all month, and stations retrograde on June 26th. Mars, usually so brave and wild, hits a karmic wall as he joins the South Node. Stop, look, and listen. You want to get it right the first time.   Continue reading →
