Hello Everyone. Welcome to The Psychic Cottage Blog.

I’m too excited. Tomorrow we get our own Bath & Body Works in the Oshawa Centre. Can you believe it? Bath & Body Works in the Big O!

I love this stuff. The foamy hand soap is so wonderful. Do you think they will hire me?

 No more trips to the U.S. for supplies!

Woo hoo!

Hello dear Friends. Welcome to The Psychic Cottage Blog! Affectionately known as the TPC Blog.

I received an invitation into a really neat women’s group called “Pink Stilettoz“. I wanted to tell you about it.

Good evening everyone. Welcome to the Psychic Cottage Blog.

I hope life is treating you kindly.

I did a psychic party today in beautiful Hastings. It’s so pretty there. I seem to be drawn up there for some reason.

The person who did the party said to me I’ll put you in the basement. I was hoping when she walked me down the steps it wouldn’t be cold. Well…she put me below the deck and I was looking out over the lake. It was just so beautiful and peaceful. I kind of just wanted to say can you give me a break and go down and sit on the two chairs down by the water for a minute or so. What  a different way of life. So peaceful and beautiful. I got home to the Big O and I thought I really like that kind of life. Some day I guess.

To top it off she makes the best buttertarts in the world and when I went up to have a bit of a break I was given a nice cup of tea and a warm buttertart. Oh ya.

 Bobby made me (trust me I was whining and trying to get out of it) run when I got home because I’m missing running tomorrow and I’m up to 3 minutes instead of 2. It was really hard. I don’t know why I’m having such a hard time with it. I’m still plugging away though. I go really slow. I was laughing to myself because I was thinking of the old Carol Burnett show where Tim Conway played the old man. I was thinking that maybe he could beat me running. I was kind of visualizing a skit where he was running faster than me.

Here’s a youtube of the character I mean. The youngn’s won’t remember.

The Carol Burnett show was my favorite. I was watching some of the outtakes and laughing my head off here. Too cute.

Good day everyone. How are you this wonderful hot day?

Don’t forget Mercury goes into Retrograde starting this week. Careful driving and watch out for the other guy.

What happens in Mercury Retrograde is that Mercury the planet of transportation and communication appears to be going backwards or standing still. It isn’t really but it still causes total chaos. A total breakdown of communication and you will notice that there will be accidents everywhere. Sometimes even large disastrous events around the world. It’s a crazy time. Computers go nuts and travel arrangements will be messed up. It is suggested that you do not sign any agreements during this time as it will come back to haunt you. Also things from your past will come back to you.

It is felt strong going in and going out. It’s not like you have to be freaked out or anything just be extra cautious and always do a prayer when getting in the car and surround it with light.  

An example of Mercury in Retrograde at its best is when I ordered my pink laptop. I ordered it right in the middle of Mercury in Retrograde. I can’t believe I did it but I did. What happened on the day of delivery the box was found in a puddle at the delivery company and they had to remake the computer. I was somewhat relieved that I was getting another computer that was made out of Mercury in Retrograde. It is the best computer. I love it. Touch wood!

If you want further information go to www.astrologyzone.com as Susan Miller gives you lots of information.

As you know I have taken up running. It’s so hard for me. We are only up to two minutes running and one minute walking and I find I can’t breathe. I have out my ventilators and I’m doing what they say but its very hard for me.

I’m not a quitter but the idea of 3 minutes was sending me over the edge.

I asked for an answer and I got an email from my favourite Subliminal Tape place Potential Unlimited. So I ordered an MP3 for running. I put it on and went for my run. You know it worked. I even went 3 minutes and I didn’t even realize my watch beeped! I’m totally hyped. Woo hoo!

I got the one with the classical music as the wave thing kind of gets to me after a while.

I got the cutest little MP3 player from radio shack (The Source) that is just the earphones nothing else. It’s pink!

I just kept playing the one without talking the whole time! I love it.

Good Morning Dear Friends.

I hear that its going to be a scorcher on the weekend. Yikes.

I’m thinking this morning that I have a lot to learn about manifesting from our dog, Blue.

Sure she uses destructive means but she does get what she wants which is usually around food explaining her waddle.

Once in a while Bobby buys her chicken wieners as a treat and when she knows they are in the fridge and only when we are in the kitchen she sits there by the fridge hour after hour until he gives her one. She doesn’t do it to me because she knows I won’t touch the things. They gross me out.  If she’s not doing that she is standing beside  (and sometimes scratches if we are not paying attention) the big garbage pail full of food and chews. If I’m on the phone she doesn’t stop barking so that I will get off the phone and give her something to make her be quiet.

Border Collies are always trying to outsmart you and usually succeed. She can be quite the b*tch pardon the pun.

Before the radio show I get out a bunch of chews and lock them in the front of the house and if they start barking I throw them some.

Ahh isn’t having a dog so wonderful. Hee Hee.

I’m thinking if I spend as much time on my manifesting as she does on hers that I might be receiving all of it.

Our other dog Bandit is completely different. Sure he loves to eat but his main goal in life is to follow Bobby and when Bobby isn’t home he waits for him.

Bandit did help us come up with the saying of “cross eyed good” though because when he is eating something he loves he looks at you and as he is licking it he crosses his eyes until he’s finished. It’s hilarious. When I get my camcorder which is on my manifesting list I will show you what it looks like.

P.S. I changed the title as Bobby brought it up to me it might not be appropriate. I wasn’t thinking on that one. I had Manifesting Doggy Style, oops. I’m not always the brightest bulb in the tanning bed.

Good Evening Everyone.

Well I guess I have hinted long enough about the cool new event that’s being planned.

Starting in September The Psychic Cottage is going to be offering Inspirational Get-togethers like the title says.

What do you think? Sound like fun?

The idea of the whole Event is to come in get rid of your stuff you no longer need and leave with a smile on your face.

The plan is to theme them.  Book reviews, astrology 101 (in which you receive your own astrological profile and learn a bit about your birth chart), feng shui,  spiritual money talks, manifesting, numerology, relationships, hey even guest speakers….. The list goes on and on and can be fit to anyone’s desires. They will evolve.

The first one is planned for September 23rd at The Village Linen Cupboard in Newcastle. Here is Judith’s beautiful site. You may want to visit and book your space as it is limited to 12 and I think it is getting quite full. The Village Linen Cupboard is a beautiful shop so visiting is a fun thing to do. The bamboo dresses are to “die” for. Oo la la. (the cost for the first event is $5. You will be given a $5 credit towards an in person reading with me at The Psychic Cottage (to be used within 30 days. Only one coupon can apply at any time.)

The second location is going to be The Violet Door in Bowmanville. Dates have not been determined as yet but we are talking September. The Violet Door is full of wonderful books and has a wonderful zen like energy. Here is their site.

If you would like to have your own get-together let me know. They can even be done on Skype if you are not in the Bowmanville area. You get the people and the cupcakes and I’ll be there.

Visit the Facebook Page! Tuesday is Quote day!

I’m very excited. Cupcake Blessings to Everyone.

Good Morning Everyone.

Bobby took me out this morning on my run so I didn’t look like a jerk in front of my Running Room peeps. He showed me what to do. Bobby’s Garmin was going crazy beep beep “speed up” which kind of means drop the slow poke.

I have to tell you that the counting thing really worked. It was like I could get to the end just by knowing that I only had to count a little more. I liked it. Then when Bobby was trying to get me to talk as I understand that is what you are supposed to do the timing went so quick as I missed half the numbers. I’m going to write a book about my new found way of running. Ha Ha. Too funny.

He dropped me off at home and then he went a “small” 6K. Hello?

If you received our newsletter (if you didn’t make sure you sign up on this blog and I’ll send you it) you know that my niece’s Grand Opening is today for her shop in Peterborough.

We are all so excited about this and very very proud.

Pet Styling By Becki.

Her phone number ends in DOGS. Like how cool is that?

So if you live in the Peterborough area and require some Grooming for your pets check out her shop.  The front of it is so beautiful. I couldn’t copy it from my email but I will show you in another blog.

Hi Everyone. What’s Cookin?

I’m psyching myself out to go on my run at Running Room and I’m trying to figure out how I can get through the second minute without feeling like I’m croakin’.

They keep saying it will get easier but I’m thinking I’m developing a psychological block around my second minute. I don’t want to need a shrink when we go to two minutes.

What I did is I ran a minute and counted the running steps it took. It was 144. Now they might have been wienier (not a word from what I can see but it sounds cool) steps because I was in the house running front to back (with the dogs barking at me) when I did it but it has to be close right? (Yes Bobby is at work, ha ha)

That way I’m going to know exactly when the second minute will end. An anal solution but it might just work!

Dennis: “Isn’t there some kind of like… special technique?”

Good Sunday Morning Everyone. Happy August! White Rabbit!

Today was Running Room again. I’ve been twice now and still haven’t felt the runners high. Just kidding. It is very inspiring. Just thinking that in a year my husband went from what I’m doing now to training for a Marathon is keeping me going.

Also Running Room is very motivating. There was a guy there today who did his first Ironman in Lake Placid last weekend I think. He has only been running for 4 years (I know only). Congratulations to him!

I can’t seem to get the second minute run for some reason. I’ll do some work on letting that one go.

They all have tattoos about 42.6, micky mouse for the disney run, etc. I told Bobby last night I’m going to get a tattoo of 2.1 today. He cracked up. 

So I’m hanging in waiting for my Runners High.
