Another Singing Angel

April 16th, 2009 | Category: Gems Along the Way,Musings by Sharon

Hello Everyone.

I apologize for my not writing. Life just got ahold of me and wouldn’t let go. I’m feeling better now though and things are starting to turn for the better. Thank goodness.

I just watched Susan Boyle from Britain’s Got Talent. Is she not a total Earth Angel? Certain people are just meant to come down and change the world and say “snap out of it” to us aren’t they. I believe this wonderful woman is one of them.

If you haven’t seen Susan yet click here.

I kind of felt sorry for the young girl rolling her eyes before Susan starting singing. She will be forever disgraced in her judgment I’m thinking. Again lessons for all.

What a wonderful world we live in that these shows exist because otherwise how could Susan have shared her gifts with all of us.

Ask yourself, what are your gifts that you have been hiding from the world. Find them and sing your praise.

Well that was a waste of $6.00.

Hello Everyone.

So are you having fun out there.

I’m not sure if it’s because Venus is in retrograde but my goodness it’s surely been a rocky few weeks for me and my family.

Between family events and my being sick I’m surprised I’m still standing upright.

Somehow I got Shingles. As yucky as it sounds its worse to really have it. I’m not sure if it’s the medication they give you to clear it up or the pain but it sure isn’t my most pleasant experience I’ve ever had.

It was a little fun at first because the drugs were making my dreams amazing. I even had one that Brad Pitt came and stayed with us because he wanted to get away from the limelight. It was such fun him hanging out with us. Strange dreams like that. That wore off though I guess my body got used to them. I think I slept a whole day straight. It was fun.

My husband feeling a little bad at everything I’ve been going through and realizing I’ve been trapped in the house for days on end suggested a date day.

I spruced myself up as much as I could (thank goodness he seems to have rose coloured glasses when it comes to me sick or otherwise) and off we went. We went out to our favorite breakfast place then we went to the show and then for an ice cream at the mall and to Chapters.

Somehow he convinced me to go see A Haunting in Connecticut. Now I remember seeing the one on tv and I couldn’t sleep well for a week so I wasn’t about to do the same thing. I sat there the whole time with my coat over my eyes. I kept saying what’s happening. Bobby kept saying just watch it. People were getting frustrated with my antics.

He asked me to go get popcorn and I was gone for a long time. I walked really slow hoping it was over.

I am grateful for everyone surviving everything and my Shingles to slowly go away especially the pain.

The hardest part of going back to work is thinking the people are looking at me like I would probably look at them in the past if they had Shingles. Euew! Get away from Me. It will be worse being psychic.

If you want to read a funny blog on Shingles check out Venus’ blog. It’s hilarious.

I know from experience that as bad as it gets is as good as it gets if you believe it will and I’m holding my breath here waiting for that damn pendulum to swing the other way for a while.

It sure has a Ring to it.

March 22nd, 2009 | Category: Musings by Sharon

Hello Everyone.

I’m sitting here trying to conquer my clutter so I thought it a great time to search the Internet to avoid it and I found the coolest thing.

It’s called Singelringen. Check here.

It’s like a universal symbol of being single, loving it BUT if anyone is out there looking I’m available.

I think the ring is about $80 and you get put in some single meeting on line group. What fun.

It’s a pretty ring too.

I guess when you are married you have a wedding ring so why not a single ring.

I think everyone should have someone to love. I adore my husband and love being married to him. We just seem to hit it off. Sure we have our moments but most of the time life is great and God is Good.

Really life is what you make it anyway single or married so its all up to you. Live life to its fullest, enjoy your gifts that are yours for the taking, love what you do each day, be grateful for everything and give back. It’s not that hard really.

Me and my Bright Ideas.

March 17th, 2009 | Category: Musings by Sharon

Hello Everyone. Can you feel it. SPRING! Ahhhhh. God is good.

I was so excited and had a great idea. It was a lovely day and the Grandcats have been stuck up in their apartment all winter so I thought I’d get them some leashes and take them for a walk.

I could only catch Blueberry and she seemed to be able to finagle her way out of the body collar so I thought it’s probably a sign I should bring one at a time. Blueberry won because she was sitting in my lap anyway.

I was wondering why she was just lying there and didn’t move but I thought she would at least walk when we go outside. Guess what cats don’t walk like dogs.

I would carry her for a bit put her down all excited and she would just plop down on the sidewalk. It was like the leash instantly made her into a rag doll. I have no idea what she was thinking.

I carried her around the block putting her down every so often to do per plop thing and that was it. She was so relieved when I brought her back to her apartment and she ran around when I took off the leash.

Some things are just so odd.

Poor Hazel was looking at me thinking oh no I know its my turn next.

Switching Fear into Pleasure & The Movie Superstar

March 16th, 2009 | Category: Musings by Sharon,Ponderings

Welcome Everyone.

How are you all keeping out there. The energy seems to be revving up a bit. That’s a good thing. It sure was getting heavy out there.

I watched the other day one of my favorite movies. Superstar. If you haven’t watched it you have to give it a go. It’s hilarious.

Ok, its ridiculous and parts are a little embarrassing but its so funny.

My favorite part is when the two main characters are sitting in church and they get sad so they say they need a break and they pretend they are super models. The one girl says something like “I was just walking down the street and this man comes up to me and says do you want to be a supermodel and I said sure and here I am”.

I’m thinking of this movie because I’m thinking of how our minds can switch and make things ok when a second ago they weren’t. I think its called a paradigm shift. It’s like switching something that causes us fear into something that causes us pleasure.

An example would be a lady at work kept seeing 11:11. She was getting nervous about it. Obviously the more she feared it the more it showed up which is exactly what happens with fear. The lion walks right up to us and says are you scared yet. She asked me about it and I said oh that’s very powerful its the minute when the angels are listening to our prayers. Whenever I see it I stop what I’m doing and I pray for that minute. That’s what I was taught anyway.

Right then and there she did a shift. These numbers no longer caused fear but gave her a moment of pleasure. Now she gets excited when she sees them.

At my church class last week Rev. Joe brought in a hypnotherapist to talk to us. This is exactly what he does. He takes something that makes us paralyzed and changes it into something else. He actually took a lady who had a fear of snakes that almost paralyzed her. You could feel her shake when he talked about it. He turned it around very quickly to be something funny. After that every time he would bring up snakes to her she would laugh. Just being in that class I cannot think of a snake without laughing either. Not that I had a fear of snakes but now I can’t think of a snake in any other way.

Is that all it takes? I know we have to be a willing participant but hey I’m thinking its worth a try.

The mind is an amazing thing isn’t it. It was funny the other day Bobby and I were driving up to Rama and I got out Maggie, my GPS, and it said we would arrive in 15 minutes. Both Bobby and I were excited wow its so close. Even though we knew in our heads that it was more than an hour away we allowed something outside ourselves to override our logic. Finally I thought OH I didn’t put it on day light savings time but for that little bit our minds really thought it was closer then is was. Now you might be out there thinking “Doh” maybe you guys are just not the sharpest tools in the shed (as my friend Terry would say) but it wasn’t that. It was something outside of us that we trusted to be the truth overriding our own logic.

The reason I’m boring you with this is that we really can’t take life too seriously. If things can be changed in an instant just by how we are looking at it then how can anything really be real.

I am obviously taking out of the equation major hardships here although I’m thinking it could work. I’m talking the day to day things from our past or present that we take so seriously and the things that keep us back from moving forward.

So let’s be grateful and all raise our vibration and move forward. Let’s see prayers instead of fear. I really believe Spirit is always listening and the 11:11 is just our reminder to pray not theirs to listen. Nonetheless it never hurts to pray.

Let’s All Be Open to Receive.

March 15th, 2009 | Category: Musings by Sharon,Ponderings

Hello Everyone!

What a wonderful day it is. Spring is on its way, finally. Can you believe it? What a long haul of a winter. I thought it would never end.

I have to tell you about my Grandcat, Hazel. (To see more about my Grandcats with pictures see here.)

She goes into heat sometimes and I understand it to be quite uncomfortable so when I go up to their apartment to be with them and visit I usually do a little Reiki on her to make her feel better.

The funniest part is now when I go up she runs immediately from the door to her window seat and lies down on her back puts back her head and  opens her legs and arms so that her tummy is fully exposed for me to do Reiki on her. It is totally hilarious to watch. My other grandcat, Blueberry kind of looks at her like she’s totally lost her nut but she doesn’t care she lies there and even after I’ve done the Reiki she stays there. How funny is that?

I’m learning from my little furry friend and I think we should all be doing that. Opening up our arms wide to the universe and say “Today I am open to receive all the Gifts that are Mine by Divine Right. Thank you Universe.” Would the world not be a better place?

The Midas Touch

February 18th, 2009 | Category: Gems Along the Way,Musings by Sharon

Hello my Friends out there in Blogland. How are you today?

Now you might be thinking I’m going to chat here about the winning at the casino I had the other day of Two Thousand Bucks! You got it. I did have the Midas Touch that day but no this is about Daisy, my little car.

I was going to work on Monday and I heard this weird sound. It was like the underneath of my car was dragging. It started out kind of swooshy like when I hit a bump so I thought it was something “in” Daisy but by the time I got a few miles away I knew this wasn’t something in the car. Something was dragging.

I went home instead of work. When I looked underneath there seemed to be this little steel thingy hanging down. It reminded me of the car version of that little thing in your throat that hangs down. The throat thing has a name. A big name. I’ll ask my husband as he had to get his out as painful as that sounds.

So, my husband gets home and says, oh it’s nothing, you don’t even need that part and he attempted to cut it off with steel cutters and not being able to do that bent and tucked it up under something. The whole time I had my mouth open in horror and I’m thinking this doesn’t feel good. With nothing being open for Family Day it was the best offer I had at the moment.

Now I could have got up at 3:30 am and taken my husband’s car, Martin, but I didn’t and I drove to work just fine. No swooshing.

It was when I was half way home when it started. It sounded like I was dragging a bicycle under my car. I was so embarrassed. It was ok when I was going fast but when I was slowing down it was bad.

I had to run home first to let the dogs out and then I drove back to Midas at 460 Taunton Road in Oshawa. I picked Midas because the phone number had 555 in it and that’s one of my favorite numbers. The life of a psychic.

The whole time I’m thinking geez how much is this going to cost. I was kind of holding my breath on this one.

I said to Ms. Tammy (who by the way is just the perfect lady for the job there. You know she’s got things under control) don’t be doing any work until you tell me how much. She’s like no worries sign here which always makes me nervous.

So they take Daisy into the bay and she’s in there for a brief few minutes and then he brings her out. I’m thinking oh no it was really bad and they can’t fix it. My mind was going a little bonkers and the guy comes in and hands me the keys. I’m like what is it? He’s like it’s nothing we took it off. It’s a heat sensor (I think that’s what he said) that is only used in hot climates like California and isn’t really needed here in Canada.

I’m kind of there thinking how much as they didn’t discuss it and he looks and smiles and says $500. I laughed nervously but still didn’t quite get it. Then when I went to see Tammy for the real bill she said no charge. Enjoy.

How cool is that? I went to Midas and they fixed my car and I didn’t get charged.

I love Midas now. I’m going to go there for all my oil changes as they aren’t really that friendly at my other place and they kind of make me nervous like they are doing something they shouldn’t. You know charging for special oil when you real might not be getting that extra special oil.

God Bless Midas, Tammy and the Gang.

You Have Arrived.

February 16th, 2009 | Category: Gems Along the Way,Musings by Sharon

Hello Dear Blog Friends. I apologize for not writing. The energy has been somewhat heavy for some reason and I’ve been feeling a bit murky. I hope everyone is doing great and not feeling this heavy energy that seems to be about.

I had to tell you about my new present that my husband bought me for our anniversary. He bought me a GPS.

I think the gift is somewhat for him as he is a little sick of having me call every time I go out saying “I can’t find it”. I find at night that I can’t see the numbers on houses and just get disoriented and nervous. Now I am happy.

I named my little GPS “Maggie” as it is a Magellan and I thought it went together. She is kind of like having a friend in the car when you are alone and she has saved my butt a few times already. The hard part is trusting her. Do I go with where I think I should go or go where Maggie is telling me to go. I have to learn to trust.

We can learn a lot about life if we apply the same lessons of a GPS. I’ve decided to do just that. I’m going to put my order in to the universe, let go and listen and see where it takes me trusting each step that it is the right way.

I love it when she says “You Have Arrived”. How positive is that? You have arrived at your designated point in life.

I also notice it shows all the banks and there are little money symbols. I use it to visualize my money affirmations when I see it. A money miracle happens to me Today!

I love it. Such a nice gift. My husband is the best.

A Bug’s Life.

February 05th, 2009 | Category: Musings by Sharon,Ponderings

Hello my Sweet Friends. How are you all doing? I can feel the February energy sneaking in. With the fear generated from the media recession and it being cold and February the energy is starting to get a little murky. Hopefully it will switch up soon.

So I have another strange story for you.

Today I printed something at work and the weirdest thing happened.

Keep in mind I’m the earliest one there. I get there at 7 am because I don’t do well in traffic. I can only listen to my meditation tapes for so long before the “ok come on let’s go” comes out of me. My road rage slips out before I can catch it.  Nothing drastic more impatience than anything.

I was looking at my sheet I got from the printer doing my work thing when I noticed something kind of gross on it.

I looked more carefully and it was an actual bug that had somehow got in the printer and it was a squished bug, legs and all, with this goo that had come out of him or her (let’s assume it’s a he) via its head and there was a tinge of red which I assume is bug blood. The strangest part is he kind of got cooked on the paper which made him into a piece of art. God Art as all are his (ok I’ll keep with the theme and assume God is a he here) creatures.

Now I could have just went “Egads” and settled at “Euew” and thrown it away, after of course showing everyone at work to get things going, but I started to think about things and how life is kind of like that. One minute you are doing your “bug thing” thinking this is kind of cool and the next minute you could be in spirit saying oops “I wasn’t expecting that one” (I took that line from Hurley on Lost).

I started thinking what was the bug doing in the printer? Did he fall? Did he think there was bug food in there? Was he an adventurous bug?

Then I started thinking about something I’ve pondered for a while that might be a good healing tool and that is “freeze framing” your life.

I started a book on it some time ago and I’ll dig it out and have a look and see where I’m at with it. Maybe the time has come. I think I called it A Slice of Life which can’t be done now because of Dexter’s boat.

The idea is take a freeze frame or slice of your actual life at this moment. What needs to be changed? What needs to stay and you are grateful for? What are your dreams?

Then create another freeze frame or slice in the future and make it exactly how you want it. Then meditate on that future freeze frame slice and make it happen.

Dealing with everything. What you would be doing this actual moment if all this slice was in place. Such fun to do things like that.

I know what you are thinking. Geez it must be hard to be her.  I’d of thrown the bug out and that would have been the end of it.

So there you have it. The Day the Bug Got Squished. Hey that’s a good name for my book?

Tickle Me Elmo.

January 30th, 2009 | Category: Gems Along the Way,Musings by Sharon

Hello Dear Friends.  How are you all making out in Mercury in Retrograde. It’s been a strange one that’s for sure.

My dear husband bought me a present yesterday. A tickle me Elmo. It is just so cute. Every time I see one when we are out I have to touch its foot to get it to say “Elmo Loves You”. Then I laugh hysterically.

I came home and it was on the table. My husband is such a sweet man.

It took forever to get out of its packaging but when it started doing its thing it was such fun. If you put in down sideways it says something about helping Elmo up and then when he’s upright he says that you are Elmo’s best friend.

I have no idea how it works.

I know what you are thinking, she’s a grown woman. Ha that’s where I got you. I can be as young as I want. If Tickle Me Elmo puts a smile on my face, why not.

Do something that makes you smile and just blame me and say if Sharon can make a fool of herself I can too.
