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?
