One thing I love about fresh spinach is you can take huge giant handfuls and stuff it into your biggest saute pan and it cooks down to one serving.

It’s happening again, calls piling up to return. If we’re supposed to speak by phone, if we can do it by text or Facebook message or email, it will happen lots quicker. Thanks for understanding. I need to to learn discipline to not schedule myself so tightly. I’ve done this for years. 11:45 means 11:45. Now I have a couple of friends waiting for calls back but I need this call first. Wah! first world problems! If only I could successfully return calls between 2-5am I’d be set.

I haven’t been tummy sick for three years. I generally eat healthy with very few processed foods, nothing packaged, nothing fried, no four legged animals. When I eat something too heavy or fatty, my system lets me know. It rejects it mid process, saying “Enough, no more.” It’s not like it happened overnight. It’s not like I had no warning. The last 12 months I’d begun eating bread again, rediscovering sandwiches and eating them almost every day. That in itself is heavy for me. I began drinking coffee and Teechino almost daily, with milk. That’s good for 15 extra pounds a year later. I’d also begun enjoying tasty fried catfish. I’d gone seven years of absolutely no fried anything to eating it once or twice a month without guilt. Yesterday was one of those days.   Continue reading →

Excerpt from Chapter V: The Reality of Superphysical Life. It seems difficult for those who are accustomed only to ordinary and somewhat materialistic lines of thought to believe in and realize fully a condition of perfect consciousness apart from the physical body. Every Christian is bound by the very foundations of his creed to believe that he possesses a soul; but if you suggest the possibility that that soul may be a sufficiently real thing to become visible under certain conditions apart from the body either during life or after death, the chances are he will  tell you that he does not believe in ghosts, and that such an idea is nothing but an exploded medieval superstition. If we are at all to comprehend the work of the band of invisible helpers, and learn to assist in it, we must shake ourselves free from contemporary thought on these subjects, and endeavor to grasp the great truth that the physical body is nothing but a vehicle or vesture of the real man.

I moved my websites from one server to another this week and I needed GoDaddy, as my registrar, to change all my website domains to the new nameserver. I did a Live Chat with GoDaddy and learned how to do that. You first need to create host names on the domain. To set host names:

1. From the MY ACCOUNT PAGE, you should see your products listed down left side of page, the first will be DOMAINS, to the right is a green MANAGE button, click that.
2. You will then be on page with list of your Domains, click directly on the first domain name and this will open DOMAIN DETAIL page.
3. Down left side towards bottom you will see Host Names, to right you will see MANAGE link, click that and then add your Host Names and IP addresses in the boxes provided.
4. You will need to give them about 24 hours, then you can start setting your domains to those Nameservers under Domains/Manage then Nameservers/Manage.

A friend recently had a stroke. While he recovers, it’s easy to expect too much too soon as far as his memory and thinking. Since he looks almost back to normal, it’s easy to forget he’s had a major brain injury. His emotional actions and reactions may be skewed until his brain has time to rewire itself. That can be hard on loved ones. He needs body rest and brain rest to rewire. It’s hard to heal when the mind’s default setting is heated discussion on the woes of the world. Please send healing thoughts to this blessed brother.

I just discovered that with my new Samsung Galaxy S5 phone and Verizon service, I can use voice to text while I am driving west on 192 in Melbourne. With Virgin Mobile I could not voice to text on 192.  I thought I was happy with Virgin Mobile. I did not know I was having a limited experience and had opportunity to have a more expansive experience. Isn’t that the way life is? We don’t know what we don’t know until we know it.

Last week I transferred all my websites to a new server and this morning I emailed the old server to cancel my account — not realizing I had to do another step and change my nameserver DNS numbers FIRST. A friend called me as I was on my way out of town to let me know my website was down. My first thought was “Live and learn, thank you Mercury retrograde. At least I did it at noon on a holiday weekend so maybe this means I won’t be playing with my websites all weekend.” It was my fault for always multitasking, not making sure ahead of time exactly what the next steps were and when I should do them. Yay for email on my new phone. That made it easy to pull off the side of the road and ask my old server right away to restore the account for 24 hours so I could make the change. I acknowledged it was my error and apologized. They gave me 72 hours. Thank you law of attraction for giving me evidence — via an easy fix — I’m doing something right.

Beginning 4:00pm tomorrow, Friday, May 22 there is a Memorial Day Retreat this weekend at the Yoga Shakti Mission in Palm Bay, FL. Mokshapriya Shakti writes: “Self-empowerment begins when we decide to actively take control of our lives, which means we come to the awareness that we are responsible for our thoughts, feelings and actions.   We begin to take back our power when we are daring enough to initiate the process of releasing/changing that which brings us pain, makes us sad or in any way diminishes who we are.   In this retreat we will systematically go through some of our chakras or energy centers. If we work and meditate on the energy, ray, color and attributes of the eight centers there will be a profound change and self-empowerment.”
REGISTRATION: $130 per person or $190 for families
WHEN: 4 pm on Friday May 22nd until 2 pm on Sunday May 24th.
WHERE: Yogashakti Mission 3895 Hield Road, Palm Bay FL 32907. (321) 725-4024

Whether it’s my new Samsung Galaxy S5 phone or Verizon’s service rather than Virgin Mobile’s, I am able to scroll faster through Facebook and also text and use Messenger lightning fast with the new phone. I’d uninstalled Messenger from my old phone, my HTC One V with Virgin Mobile, since the text messages would goof up if there were Messenger messages as well. I always seem to have both going on at the same time. With the new phone, there’s no problem and they interface easily. I got my Unicorn Beetle case and car charger today, my Bluetooth earpiece should arrive any day.
