Creepy Mannequin Memories and Psychic Wedding Showers
Hello Everyone. How are you doing?
The world seems very quiet at the moment. Not sure what’s up. It is an eerie silence I’m feeling for some reason. Maybe it is just Mercury in Retrograde going straight in the next week or so. God is Good I’m sure it is nothing.
I went to a wedding shower last night to do readings. It seems to be something that is taking off for me and kind of happened because I helped a friend out with her daughter’s wedding shower as the theme was a tea party. So very serendipitous. Perfect to have a psychic there. It’s such fun seeing everyone all dressed up. It’s hard to get to everyone and there always is a long line up waiting at the end. This time a lady said you should have spent 5 minutes on everyone. I was thinking even if I spent 5 minutes I wouldn’t have been able to read everyone.
Such excitement in the young peoples’ faces that are getting married. It is more exciting to do things like that because everyone knows everyone and you get to know where everyone fits in.
This one was at Bellevue Manor in Woodbridge. It is very beautiful there. It was strange because there was an older Italian man spirit sitting there the whole time and he was sitting on an overturned bucket that the grapes come in and he was carving or something. It felt like he was in a garage. I don’t think he realized we were even there although I did see him look up at me a few times. He seemed content. I kept asking everyone if he belonged to them then I realized he must have lived on the land before this wonderful manor was built or he is related to someone who owns the manor. He was lovely. I guess I should have asked him directly but really didn’t have the time as I didn’t stop. Well I had to stop when they were doing their dance lessons and I couldn’t hear and the people I was doing readings for couldn’t hear either. I guess they didn’t think of that. I got a well deserved rest.
So I go back to my car and I realized that I left a mannequin in the back of my car from a flea market that I did with a friend. It’s the headless half body kind. I laughed thinking if someone looked in they are going to think I have a body in there. I would be on the news and wouldn’t even know it. We are following crazy psychic with bright pink turtles all over her car and she seems to have a headless body in the back. I would be totally unaware of it as I am most of the time about things going on around me. Oh dear I shouldn’t put that out there on the Ether should I. All is Well. All is well.
I was laughing to myself because this mannquein reminded me of when I was young I used to watch my friend Beverly’s house when they were away on their many trips and her dog (the dog’s name was Bobby, lol, who was the mother of our families’ dog Molly). Her father was a window dresser. I would have to go and check out the house to make sure everything was ok (I think I was supposed to do that unless I was just nosy) and it was just the creepiest. All these mannequins and different body parts hanging around, all naked, all staring at me. I used to run in and run out real fast. I guess being psychic didn’t help none at that point. Life was so different back then.

It’s All about me Today! It’s my Birthday.
Hello Everyone. How are you this glorious day.
We always joke when someone gets too full of themselves “What is it your birthday? Is it all about “you” today?”.
Well today it “IS” all about me because its my BIRTHDAY!
I love birthdays. Mostly because if you follow 7 thunders it’s a whole new beginning of a new adventure. I love new things. They get my attention.
Thank you for being there throughout the year. You’re the best.

I’m Totally Back Friends.
Hello Everyone.
Well our computer was down and sent me into a frenzy! I will treat her with much more love then I used to. I didn’t realize how much she meant to me. I think I will name her Abigail. Our amazing computer guy Kyle (CSI Computers in Bowmanville) fixed us up without losing a thing. Apparently we were at capacity. Who knew? My husband got X box (I think he’s addicted) so hopefully he will leave the computer alone for games now and she will be fine.
Going to the library didn’t give me the same inspiration as sitting in our little cluttered computer room drinking a cup of tea. Although I did get a new found love for the library. Free books to read, free videos. What a trip. I forgot all about how much fun a library could be.
So I’m now back. I’m feeling back in many ways actually. The pendulum has truly gone the other way and life is getting to the point where I feel like me again. There is always a plan but tell people that when they are sucking dirt and they won’t believe you. Maybe I had to experience this time in order to be there for others. I’m borderline Mary Poppins when it comes to looking up (my older boy calls me Mommy Poppins or Mommy Pippins, something like that) so I had to realize that being down is real. Thanks Universe! There’s always a lesson isn’t there.
So that’s it. I will write again soon. Lots of things to talk about. Be well and God Bless.

Gypsy Willow Dusk
Hello Dear Friends.
I’m sure you are all fans of Facebook, who isn’t, and I have to tell you about my find.
I was talking to a cousin who I haven’t talked to in eons which is weird because we used to be attached at the hip and she had on her Facebook “know your Hippy Name”. I love Hippy stuff. The flowers, music, the whole fun of it all (except the “pot” thing but then I don’t even drink) so I had to find out what my name was.
This is what my cousin remembered about me. This is hilarious because out of 10 solid years of our life this is what she remembered. She says “remember when you slept over and you got up but you were sleepwalking and you thought the closet was the washroom and we had to pull you out and bring you to the washroom”. Funny what we remember.
Anyway…my Hippy name is Gypsy Willow Dusk. If I could figure out how to copy the picture in you would agree the resemblance is remarkable. My friend wrote “that’s perfect”. I’ll try to put it on my facebook page for The Psychic Cottage. Don’t forget to visit The Psychic Cottage Facebook page. Lots of fun and free things.
So that’s it for now.
Here’s a few Hippy Quotes:
“You’re either on the bus or off the bus”. Ken Kesey

Happy Beltane.
Hello my dear Friends.
I hope this wonderful 1st of May has you excited about good things to come.
I had a wonderful surprise today in that my lovely sister-in-law brought to our home the blessing of some Barmbrack Bread.
Now Kimmi is so connected to the Fairy Folk. The outside of her home is dedicated to them with certain gardens and fish ponds and each little thing means something.
Once Bobby and I went to her home and a fairy showed up in a picture.
I tried to do the whole picture but the fairy seemed to dissappear so you are just getting our famous little fairy here.
So the story with the delightful Barmbrack Bread goes like this. You eat it with everyone in the home and you each make a wish. It was stressed the importance of “be careful what you wish for”. Then before midnight you put the rest outside for the fairies for their treat and blessings throughout the year. You make it very clear to them of your intentions.
What fun! It tastes wonderful too!
I wondered what was going on today as the veil seemed to be extremely thin. I was having a shower and I saw someone in the room with me outside the shower. I just thought it was Bobby but then I realized the door was locked. Lots of activity for sure today.
To Celebrate:
“The May-pole is up, Now give me the cup; I’ll drink to the garlands around it; But first unto those, Whose hands did compose, The glory of flowers that crown’d it.” Robert Herrick The Maypole 1660
Blessings to you all my Friends.

Where do you even Buy a Hitchhiking Cat?
Hello Everyone.
I apologize once again for my absence.
My boys have been staying with Bobby and I for a bit in between houses and I find it so much fun to be a Mom again. Sure they are older but I didn’t realize how much I missed them and I’m having so much fun. I’m laughing about silly things and even though they are so different from each other its fun to see their strengths and I’m very proud of them.
My older boy has the funniest sense of humor. He has me laughing all day. I guess in our house there’s lots to laugh at. He looks at all my stuff which things are perfectly normal to me and shakes his head. Yesterday he said: “why do you have a hitchhiking cat?” with this look of “how weird is this?” on his face. I tell him that its a lucky cat and its not hitchhiking its waving and its to bring money in the house. Again the look. He goes about the house asking about each odd thing and what its for and why its here and laughs. I hear him say to his brother “where would you even buy something like that?”. I know its all in fun he did live with me for 20 of his years so I had funny things even then.
My younger boy doesn’t notice the odd individual stuff but sees the big picture. The only thing that gets to him is the clutter. He’s only been here a few weeks and he’s gone right through the house. Our basement that was kind of like a giant storage room is now a basement apt for the two of them. It looks great. I see my husband looking around in wonder at the transformation.
Yesterday I heard my younger boy laughing so much he couldn’t catch his breath and the dogs were freaking out. I came out and my older boy had on this medieval leather armor helmet that Bobby had made in a leather course. It’s huge. He’s like Ok Mom “what the h*ll is this and why do you even have it?” He had me laughing my head off. Doesn’t everyone have a medieval leather armor helmet? Boys will be Boys.
So that’s been my life. One adventure after another.
I asked my younger boy if he minded staying here. This boy does not like negativity. If you talk negative around him he tells you to get away and come back when you are positive. His answer was that the silver lining is that we are all getting to know each other.
God is good. I have a feeling this is going to be my best Mothers’ Day yet.

Another Singing Angel
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.
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.
