I’m Busy Getting the January Horizons to Press on Time

I’m glued to the computer finishing the January Horizons Magazine.  Because of the holidays in November and December, I have to do two issues back to back to accomodate the press schedule.  And I sure can’t complain about all the ads I’m getting, nor the phone calls that are coming in at the last minute with them.  But I’m sure not used to working this hard.  I know, whine, whine, whine…

I thought I’d share a little card I watercolored for a buddy some holiday past.  These are fun to do, I should do more of these.  They make me happy to draw and paint and look at over and again.  I’ll be back to daily babbling in a day or two, promise 🙂

Lottery Winner Abraham Shakespeare Missing in Bizarre Story

While I’m busy finishing up the January Horizons Magazine, I posted on Facebook yesterday: will all my psychic friends take a moment to read this story, tune in to this gentleman and give any specific info that might be helpful. If you email  me at horizonsmagazine@gmail.com about it, I can keep track of when more than one person gets the same info. That’s not possible to do when info is being publicly posted in the comments.

Lottery winner Abraham Shakespeare – Woman Says Missing Man Publicity Upended Life By Merissa Green.    LAKELAND | The woman who says she helped missing Florida Lottery winner Abraham Shakespeare disappear now says she desperately wants him to come back.    “I felt like I was helping a man that got taken advantage of,” Dorice “DeeDee” Moore said, tears streaming down her face. “In the same respect, I ended up with all his mess. That was not worth all the money in the world.”   The Polk County Sheriff’s Office on Tuesday posted a $5,000 reward for anyone who could help locate Shakespeare. Continue reading

Compassion, Constructive Criticism and the Sunburned Grinch in WalMart

angry devilI live in Central Florida, an hour east of Disney and 15 miles from the Atlantic Ocean.  It’s 75 degrees here this week; our typical holiday weather.  Yesterday I was in WalMart having a fun conversation, as I often do, in the checkout line with an older gentleman, in his 70’s-80’s. A 30-ish woman walks up in line behind him, clearly sunburned, and he jokes “getting a sunburn in wintertime, that will make the folks up north jealous.”  She replied “keep your comments to yourself assh*le.” He looked crushed and humiliated. I put my arm around him and said, “if we had that sunburn, we’d be grouchy too.” and I let her go ahead of me. He gave me a wink. That wink made me feel so happy. Continue reading

Abraham-Hicks on Thriving in the New World Economy; Fine Tuning Manifestation

Fine Tuning Manifestation.  In this video, Abraham helps us understand how a very subtle difference in our understanding of the Vortex and our relationship to it can make all the difference in the world, of the abundance that flows to us. It’s so easy to let the circumstances that surround us set the tone of our vibration and therefore determine our point of attraction, but it does not have to be that way. We can control what we attract. This is Abraham’s best illustration of how to discover what’s holding us up; identify the “missing piece” of the puzzle, and stop unconsciously disallowing the things we desire. It feels so good to understand this stuff!  http://www.lawofattractioninteraction.com/video/Thriving.html Continue reading

A New Crop Of Baby Hawks Are Back In The ‘Hood

It’s that time of year again and the new hawks are here.  The one I see is rather small and whitish, which means he is a fledgling.  Hawks gestation is 28 days and they fledge at 45 days.  Hawk medicine has to do with being patient and observing.   I spent some time at the firepit yesterday, rearranging the stones and bricks.  I always have dry kindling and logs, although everything around me was dampened by the light drizzly rain of the last few days.  Water droplets were still dripping off the oak leaves onto me, but the small fire burned cleanly, barely any smoke, cooking my sweet potato to perfection.  Continue reading

The Saga Continues with Sharon Janis: Let’s Get Over It Already

I thought this topic was over days ago. It began when I wrote a generic blog post What do you do when friends misunderstand you and don’t want to play anymore? My daily blog is about what lessons I learn as I travel this road of Life, but I don’t disclose names and places. After reading my post, the friend, Sharon Kumuda Janis, got miffed at me and took it public.  It turns out that although I’d known her for 10 years, she’d only let me see one facet of her during all that time.  Hmmmph.  I thought, ok, lesson learned and moved on. She then deleted me as well as several dozen mutual Facebook friends, but a week later she’s still on the topic doing emails behind the scenes. I don’t know who all they went out to, so I’m posting this here just to tell you – I don’t know anymore than you do about why she’s doing this. Don’t hold it against her.  We’ve all done public sh*t we later regretted. Continue reading

People Who Lie About Who They Are: Washington Redskins Cheerleaders fired up about White House Crasher Salahi

Cheerleaders get fired up about Salahi by Paul Farhi, Washington Post Staff Writer 12-3-09. Before she made it into a White House state dinner without an official invitation, Michaele Salahi made it onto the Redskins alumni cheerleading squad — without ever having been a Redskins cheerleader.  Salahi performed at FedEx Field during halftime of the Redskins-St. Louis Rams game Sept. 20 with a group of 150 former Redskins cheerleaders. Salahi’s rehearsals with the group were filmed by a crew that has been following Michaele Salahi and her husband, Tareq, for possible inclusion on a cable TV reality show, “The Real Housewives of D.C.”  Several former cheerleaders said in interviews that Michaele Salahi’s presence at a rehearsal drew attention because of the TV cameras, but also suspicion because no one seemed to remember her as a cheerleader for the team.

Effective Communication: Or Are You Simply Talking Apples and Oranges?

I wrote yesterday in Man Controls Robotic Hand Using His Thoughts that years ago I watched Deepak Chopra and Wayne Dyer on the dias at a conference years ago, talking about the fact that we are all, indeed, one connected organism rather than individual, separate beings.  “If that’s so,” asks Dyer with a twinkle in his eye, “why can I move the fingers on my hand and I cannot move the fingers on your hand?”

“Because,” Chopra said, “it’s because you think it’s my hand.”

I put Today’s Post on Facebook and Renee Frechette Speir Great commented: I heard about this! Do you know that they have done studies where people think about lifting extreme amounts of weight with one finger, and over time, the finger is measurably stronger? Power.
