I need a relaxing cuppa... My day was a little less stress. We had the consult for my daughter and she is scheduled for surgery (to have her wisdom teeth out) the 7th of July. And things seemed to be calmer today.

Wishing everyone a peaceful night. (butterfly)

Good Grief earthmothr what are you bitchin about!  If I tried bellydancing I'd knock the guy out on either side of me with my wide ass.

Some days I do good to reach my foot to tie my shoe, my back is so stiff. I often wonder if rigermortis has set in before I'm even dead! LOL

Stretching is what I need to do more than anything.

Yesterday I found I was more comfortable using the walls, and steps to do stretching more than the swimming part. I felt so good to stretch, and the water helped to keep me from falling on my ass, lol. They were laughing at me because I was doing more dogy paddling, than actual swimming, lol. yes, I can swim, but believe it or not, you use more muscles doing the dog paddle!   I was concentrating moreso on my legs fluttering, working my bad knee, than worried about how fast my ass got to the other end.

The Y's not very busy when I first get off work at 3, it picks up nearer you get to 5, and after 5, take a number and stand in line! I might pack my shorts today and head over to the gym part for a bit today. Alternate between swim and gym. Tommorrow is the water fitness class!! yeah!!! Hell I might work up to one of the exercise claases! :roll:

I understand the whole being proud thing Kathartica!!! I get so tickled with myself when i let a little one crawl on my hand so I can move him!!!!  Even better when I know one is there and I leave him be!!! last year was the first year we had HUGE garden spiders. the half yellow half black, long legged buggers!! and I left them alone!!!!

Welcome to the cafe' Nightdreams!!! Wisdom teeth, guess in the long run they do make us wiser.to just how much of a pain our own bodies can be!!! In 5 weeks I'm gonna be heading up into oregon!! NE, along the litle Imnaha river! Such a beautiful state. Gonna move that direction when hubby retires in who knows how many years, lol..

Damn, almost 6:30 already!! guess I best finish my cuppa and get moving!!!

Have a blessed day one and All!!!

Morning Cuppas!

I am 49 and had my top wisdom teeth taken out last year....(I know a little late)...it wasn't as bad as I thought it would be....your daughter is young, she will do fine....in another thread you asked for assisstance in understanding your daughter...have you looked at the Indigo CHildren Section of the forum here?? SInce she is 17, it might give you some insight.....there is also alot of support here, so be sure to ask away....

Earthmother, I would LOVE to learn how to bellydance...dancing was always something I wanted to do...but when I was young my Mom was overprotective and told me that dancing was not something a "young woman" did. Gawds. ANyway...I digress....let us know how it goes...I can enjoy it vicariously!!

Novia, swimming is a great way to exercise....did it for years, I know it will help you in SO many ways....you keep it up girl...I am with ya 110%!

I have looked at the Indigo Children information and yes it explains some. I guess I just have a deep desire to understand her more and help her. Plus when she is unstable it is scarey.

Boring day here... No appointments!!! yippy Just going to watch movies with Jess and relax for the day. And enjoy nice cuppa together.

Blessings to all

We just had a beautiful thunderstorm here followed by a lovely rainbow.  They are so energizing for me, and I swung open the door and window (tried to encourage Willow the keekee to stay inside, since she's not an outdoor kitty) and just watched it and meditated on it.  I feel very good now.  
I hope everyone has had and is having a wonderful day!

Gotta share pic of the owls this year. Son was walking thru the woods playing with a friends awesome cannon sureshot camera, and got these pics of our friends! There are two different one's. I think one is the youngster this year, and the other is last years youngster. Our generations keep growing and growing!! I've seen, and heard them a couple times this year across the street, but not nearly this close!

wow those are gorgeous nov!  very cool neighbors!

[marq=left:5f82db798d]GOOD MORNING ODSS CAFE DWELLERS!!!![/marq:5f82db798d]

How's that for a wake up!!!

Been up since around 5:30. Got some dishes washed. Coffee made. Malt o meal fixed and am sitting here enjoying for a bit with the back door hanging open so I can hear the birdies singing their little asses off. Dreaming of 5 more weeks when I will be doing this, without the benefit of all your loverly company of course, in the middle of flippin nowhere, yet in the middle of everywhere!!! (love)

Life is good.

Last night I had a thought, that I can't really complain about my life as I don't really have one, not an exciting one, but ya know what.......
THAT'S MY OWN DAMN FAULT!!!!!  

I CAN do whatever it is I choose to do, it is just that I CHOOSE not to do anything.  (pullhair)

I had some strange dreams last night, and each one intailed water. overflowing, filling, flooding (no not too much nightly news watching type flooding!) cleansing flooding.

I think it's trying to tell me I need to do some serious emotional cleaning, and washing away the crap in my life that's bogging me down. It was always a room in my house that was flooding. Only knee deep, just enough to wash away the stuff, but not enough to cause any serious damage, unless wrinkly toes count as damage, lol. There were a few 'items' that got damaged that I had to throw away, but they weren't anything important.

Why is it that those of us who have the answers that so many look for for so long, don't use the knowledge we have?

Can anyone answer that?

Well hopping off here, gonna get a couplle more things done before work.

Please, though, give that some thought will ya and get back to me on that. I already konw one will, if she brings her ass to the cafe' that is, lol.

"Why is it that those of us who have the answers that so many look for for so long, don't use the knowledge we have?"

My guess for this would be that it's easy to answer and try to solve other people's questions and problems because we are removed from the situation.  We don't have the emotional involvement, and we don't view the outcome as effecting us, so we can just sit back, relax, and answer.

When it is our own problem, it's different because it's our's and we are "special."  We feel the stress of our own problems, so they become more important to us than the issues of others.  Also, when we are under stress or in pain from a particular situation, it is much more difficult to view the issue in an objective manner.

Novia, which specific rooms in your house were flooding and which items?  (that's a personal "think about it" question, not meant to be answered on the board)

I don't know about you, but, sometimes (maybe because I'm a Virgo, Scorpio ascending) I get overwhelmed with all the information I have in my head and tend to "observe" it rather than use it.  I can't STOP putting info in there, and most times that info is floating around in fifty different directions.  (It makes Mr. K crazy!)  I do a LOT of grounding exercises!!!  
Are you fearful of the outcome of the use of that knowledge for some subconscious reason?  Not that you should be.  Just throwing one of those fifty thoughts out there.

Willow keekee had a bad psychic day yesterday.  Besides being picked on by the "unseen", which she chases and jumps at and which make her nervous, she "heard" my cellphone ring a few seconds before it actually did.  She was sleeping (twitching and dreaming) on my lap while I read, and then stood straight up, wide awake, just before the phone rang.  (She's such a cool cat).  Then, late last night, she was sitting by my couch at the end of our small hallway, and when I walked into the living room, she hissed (more like a loud pop) and tore under the coffee table.  When she came back out, her tail looked like a bottle cleaner!  I have NO idea what she saw.  Mr. K thinks I startled her, which is possible, I suppose, but not with this kitty.  She knows where I am at all times.  No, I believe that one of my guides must have been "visibly" around me at that time.  Poor baby!

I have absolutely no idea what I'm going to do today.  Maybe work on the last quarter of English, maybe read. (I have a ton of books I need to finish and turn back into the library--I've been hogging them!)  Maybe I'll alternate between coffee and naps.  Summer is starting to get to me.  Now I know what kids mean when they say, "I'm boooored!"   (faint)

Oh, I forget to tell you that those are absolutely gorgeous pics.  I love owls.  You are very lucky to get pics of them.  I have always had a hard time seeing them, and only in flight.

I remember Rita something like "omg another one!? Man looks like we'll be getting a few more new students before this is over..." Not that I was unsympathetic - I think maybe that was just my way of dealing.

I appreciate y'alls support on the trip thing. It's good to know sometimes that I'm not the only one who occasionally feels that practicality can be overrated ^^

Walking to work Monday I found three pale pink roses on the side of the highway. They were done up in pretty wrapping, looked like something that had been bought from a flower store. How they got on the bridge I have no idea. Anyway, it had just finished with a very light rain (ten minutes of sprinkling, but it's better than nothing!) and while the outside of the packaging had some nasty on it, the roses looked completely unharmed. They were very pretty, too - almost white, with hot pink color right at the very tips of the petals. I didn't know what to do with them, but I didn't want to just leave them on the side of the road. I thought about taking them to a funeral home that I walk past along my way and just leaving them quietly in a viewing room, but there were only two cars there at the time so I figured it was probably workers who were used to flowers and would have just thrown them away. I was kind of sad that didn't work out like I wanted it to. I ended up hanging on to them until my girlfriend picked me up from work that night and I gave them to her lol...I told her, "You always complain that I never get you flowers!" She said that I didn't buy them, so it shouldn't count, but since I thought about her she would let it slide =P

I think I have ingested more sweet tea in the past 24 hours than many people have their entire lives. Good God I love the South =D lmao

Now then, I suppose I will be off. Have a nice one, everybody =)

Oh My Goddess what a Day!!!   I have been under tremendous pressure for about the last 2 months ,the reason is you might ask
I have a very small business with a very small client base  of 8 and out of these 8,5 are medicaid patients so I bill them ...  yadda,yadda... well to make this short... my billing clerk who is my SISTER has been depositing them in another account!!! to the tune of about 3000.00!!! I found all of this out on Monday(breath) well I have just been sick about it, getting on here to get some relief (the taro lessons  (candle)  thanks) and going back to bed, trying to stay as calm as possible.  
So  today I had to go and sign the papers for the THEFT and take my son to the Dr. and when we were going into the Dr's office I SHIT YOU NOT the door came apart in my hand!!! (fit)  I'm freaking out over the door and lean it on the wall and start to go to the front desk and 2 books from a near bye table suddenly attached themselves to my skirt    A nice old man took them off of my skirt and after Dan's appointment the man was waiting for me i think? he  reached out and touched my hands and whispered your hands are freezing are you in distress!!!! and I busted out laughing    see in my family we call that a "witch in distress"

now I feel better and waiting for The Big Beautiful Full Moon.
wasn't that a trippy day???
Thank Again each and everyone one you for being here and Lady Elaine if it wasn't for you we or I would have no place to go. (clap)  (butterfly)

No doubt bri!!!

Today has been a stressful day.

Why is it if people have to have a constant state of the pissies and seem to hate life so much, that they bother to even climb out of the fuckin' bed besides to drag everyone else they encounter down with them!!!!!    

Got a new boss lady and her true colors are showing thru now. She has a hit out for one of the drivers. Cutting his hours by a day, he doesn't konw it yet, although he does know to watch his back I told him that much. I'll know more tommorrow when the other guy comes in who she is giving the hours to. The asshole who deals me such a fit.

Only thing is come the end of the year, when he has worked his max, she'll be fucked cause he simply won't work until the beginning of next year. nNo if's and or butt's cause he can't!!   i warned her, but she won't pay attention.

She has that better than though, pompous, I'm large and in charge attitude. Has the whole place on pins and needles. Not fun going to work anymore. I'll hang until after vacation and see what happens. I have this gut feeling she'll be giving away some of my hours to the asst Director of nursings girl who started in our office, and wants more hours. I'm too near hitting overtime if I have to work an extra day, and that is why she's cutting the drivers hours, NO OVERTIME! Unless of course you're  nursing or a fave!

She doesn't cross me much, cause I make her deal with me, on my level even coming to me on occassion.  

She is slowly adding her friends in key roles to take over key offices. Even created a job for her daughter, who is 14, and doesn't want to be there.

I know the full moon is wearing on my nerves, and that's ok I'm gonna let it tonight. Usuallly I sheild veryewell, and ground like a son of a bitch on days like today, but I just feel like riding the tides, and forgive me to whomever I tick off, or take along for a ride and a half!!! Just know that in a day or two I'll be back to my normal self again! Promise!
