“Someone is sitting in the shade today because someone planted a tree a long time ago.”
To paraphrase Warren Buffett above, I can sit in the shade today because I planted trees.
Plant trees while you’re young –> in your 20’s, 30’s and 40’s get enough training to have good skills, to get good jobs.
How To Have A Better Tomorrow: Prime your positive pump by saying such things as: “The thing that I liked about that was… My favorite part of that was…” Follow any positive thread that you find, thinking about the best parts of your day; and then, once you are feeling the effect of your positive thoughts, focus on your dominant intention right now: getting a good nights sleep and awakening refreshed in the morning. Say to yourself, ‘I’m going to sleep now; and while I’m sleeping, because my thoughts will be inactive, attraction will stop and my physical body will be completely refreshed at every level.’ Turn your attention to the immediate things around you, like the comfort of your bed, the softness of your pillow, the well-being of your moment. And then softly set forth the intention: ‘I will sleep well, and I will awaken refreshed with another new, good feeling, positive point of attraction.’ And then go off to sleep. Abraham Hicks
The clouds of dark smoke billowed in the sky as a brush fire closed I-95 Sunday as we were driving home from Fort Lauderdale. We ran into it at 2:30pm. I was glad for GPS because I got a Google alert letting me know traffic was ahead. It showed me I could get onto the turnpike 6 miles ahead at the Northlake Blvd exit. It took about 30 minutes to travel the 6 miles then I headed west to the Turnpike. I haven’t taken it for about 15 years and didn’t recall where the exits were. The Turnpike runs parallel and right alongside I-95 for a good stretch down south. But my exit is Hwy 192 which is in Kissimmee, 40 minutes west of I-95. I wanted to find the first exit I could get off once I was north of the brush fires. Continue reading
It does not matter what is going on in the rest of the world, we can chose to focus our thoughts in a way that attracts to us exactly what we want in our lives. We can change our thoughts and discipline our behaviors so much that we can have an excellent and prosperous life no matter who is in office, no matter what the official state of the economy, no matter what the scientists or environmentalists say is happening around us.
The Walmart app shown here has the Savings Catcher feature. If another local store has any item on your receipt for less, they pay it back to you. They do that by depositing a credit onto a Walmart e-card for you, up to $599.99 per year. You can either print out the e-card and take it into the physical store with you to shop, or you can shop online with it. It just takes a moment extra at the register and I saved $70 in 2018. I feel safe doing it because I keep zero financial information accessible on my phone.
UPDATE 11-1-18 You now have to use Walmart Pay at the register to scan the QR code when it appears on the screen. You can no longer scan the receipts at home. IMPORTANT, do not scan your card for payment until AFTER the total and QR code appear on the screen. if you have a purchase of $29 and a Savings Catcher credit of $1.00, the screen will tell you to pay $28 more. if you scan your card ahead of time, it does catch the savings from that receipt.
When friends ask me what is the best tarot book for a beginner, I always suggest this one. My original one is falling apart, I just ordered and received another. I use a standard Rider Waite Tarot deck because early on that was the only deck that many authors had written interpretations for. It let me delve into the symbology of each card in a very deep and lasting way. I keep an extensive library on hand here for astrology, tarot and other forms of divination.
Today in the sky: Mars on top of Uranus and opposition Jupiter, with Mercury atop the south node = expect wacky happenings, the illusion of bad luck and mixed signals. And all happening in my 11th and 12th houses making circumstances ideal for today to be a colossal mindf*ck. And if it had happened to anyone else, it could have been! Thankfully I was able to see the humor in it right away and surfed it as long as the wave kept me afloat. The morning began at dawn when I disturbed a yellow jacket nest while raking in the side yard and got nabbed twice! I ran inside and dabbed baking soda and took 2 Benadryl. I got off lucky, the bites hurt for 48 hours then I was fine. Of course, the benadryl knocked me out til 4:00pm. So much for work today. But I think I know where the yellow jacket nest is. I think I have it narrowed down to about five square feet. Continue reading

Today I went to Wells Fargo and closed all my longstanding (since 1984) accounts because Wells Fargo is still financing the companies building the Dakota Access Pipeline. I cannot allow my dollars to contribute to human rights abuses and environmental issues such as are happening at Standing Rock, ND. Wells Fargo has always been good to me, but sometimes you gotta vote with your wallet.
