I have missed you all!

[judy]

I haven't been on in about a week! I have been really busy, and then when I go online to try to finish up shopping for the house, I've been too tired. I have missed you guys. I keep thinking of how I'll post this or that.

Anyway, I am so glad to see Gidget's babies, Dae Lynn and Damon's wedding pictures and Karlie's fairy outfit. I'm also glad to have caught up on everybody's news, even though some of it is not good news yet.

I have had the kids over, went to a watercolor painting workshop, a gallery opening, got my nails done, my car half fixed, the house cleaned, got bird feeders - it's so cool when they come to eat!, told the whacko chiropractor that I don't want to continue with the homeopathic stuff, but I do want to continue with the chiropractic stuff, etc., etc., etc.

So, I bought a very inexpensive watercolor painting bunch of stuff and will try it. I want to start taking pictures soon. Spring is coming. I can just feel it. The sun is shining almost every day now, although it did snow on Sunday.

I skipped yoga last week, and didn't make it this week. I want to get there once/week! I met so many nice people at the watercolor workshop and at the gallery opening. Next step is to get some phone numbers and start calling some of them to say hi.

I also discovered that I have to make a covered run for the dogs on my deck. I went out yesterday, and there's Max, perched on top of a little bistro table I have out there. I'm so afraid he'll jump over the wall. He's already trying. I must say though, he looked so cute sitting on top of that table, so happy and pleased with himself. Baby Annie is so cute! She's at the age where she wants to run and play and is up Max's butt 24/7. She follows him everywhere. When he goes to pee, she sticks her little nose there to see what he's doing! She is my little baby girl and I love her so much. I have to take pictures. She has the cutest little face. I want to take pictures of her before she grows up too much.
I've begun calling her Annie Leigh, which is her real name.

Steve still hasn't come to finish the work, and I am annoyed and puzzled. I better keep a lid on it though. If he doesn't show up within the month, I'm going to ask him if he really wants the job, or if I should get somebody else to do it.

Jessie has been sick at least once a week, throwing up. She's not pregnant, and the kids have had either the stomach thing or colds and coughs on and off all winter. I think it's what we used to call a "sick house." The germs just linger until Spring when you can open the windows and air the place out. She is going to the doctor next week for blood work. Maybe. She needs to find an MS specialist, but can't find one anywhere around here who takes her insurance. She feels okay, but she needs to be checked. I'm going to go onto the MS website and maybe Montel Wiliams' site. I can ask for help for her.

I have a psychic I speak to every so often. I spoke to her Monday She said that my life is perfect and will only get better. My health looks fine. Jess and Steve are good. I don't have to worry about the economy because I have enough coming in to live the way I am now. I'm really not very extravagant.
I didn't ask her about my annuity., I don't really have enough in there that it will make or break me. She did say that I will meet a man within the next few months and that he lives in my development. I hope that's true! Wouldn't that be nice.

I wondered where you were, but I new you were wanting to try things and finish up some things too. Sounds like you're getting yourself out there girl!!! That's wonderful and I'm so happy for you.

Poor Max is just trying to spread his wings.....and probably get away from Annie....LOL...and yes you do need to take some pictures for us.

Don't blame you for being a little uh...perturbed. You've given him quite a bit of time, I'm surprised he hasn't mentioned it to you. I hope Jesse can find a Dr. and keep it under control. Montel was on Oprah last week and I had no idea it was so painful. He had a lot to share.

I need a physic...it would be so nice to not feel so out of control, not that I'm sure they really know. Would be nice if they did and could prove it to me by telling me a bunch of stuff from my past that only I would know. Am I asking too much...lol.

Glad she thinks everything is going well for you and will continue to. You just sound so much happier. Love ya!!!!

[AngieDoogles]

Sounds like you've been busy! It was nice to read about all of the fun and exciting things going on in your life. I can't wait to hear about your mystery man!

"I need a physic...it would be so nice to not feel so out of control, not that I'm sure they really know. Would be nice if they did and could prove it to me by telling me a bunch of stuff from my past that only I would know. Am I asking too much...lol."

I've gone to a few psychics who could pass that test of telling me things that they could never have known about just by looking at me. I can tell you all kinds of things about yourself, especially if you give me something to hold in my hand that only you use (like a pen or a cell phone). I can read tarot cards, and so on.

So, knowing that I am psychic, I know that nobody can tell you exactly what is going to happen. Things change and shift, and most important is the fact that humans have free will. I could meet this guy, look at him and decide I don't like his voice, and there goes true love - right out the window. I hope I do like his voice though. Wouldn't that be nice!

I had a talk with Steve last night. He was very grumpy yesrerday morning, and I called later on to see what was the matter. We talked about him and then I asked him if I should just not ask him about doing my work, and he'll come when he's ready. He said yes, that he knows he has to come over, he's just been busy with Jess and the kids being sick a lot, and he has been really upset about the fact that he cannot find a job. I wish he could just get past that and do the work anyway, but that's not who he is. I will give it another month, like I said.

I didn't know you could do all that!!! How exciting!!! I'll have to send you something of mine sometime..

I'll do it - send a pen or something you bought for yourself and that nobody else uses.

Hmmmm.......I thought that I posted to this thread. I must have forgotten to hit "submit"!!!! I tell you this old age is something........

Anyway, it sure looks like you've been busy. I'm so glad that you're in a community that offers so much!

It sure sounds to me like Max is trying to get away from Annie. I can understand because poor Reuger has Jazzi now. Sometimes I put him on the bed just so he can have a rest from her! She likes to attack when he's not expecting it!!

I'm sure that your SIL is kinda' down from losing his job. Maybe he could make a few dollars, until he finds a job, doing handy work or painting for others, like he's done for you.

You're excused for not being on here much just don't make it a habit!!!!!

He could make a few dollars from me until he finds a job!!! I pay him...not what he would get from someone else, but it is real money.

What can I tell you? You just have to let people be, and work out their own stuff in their own time, especially if they are family. I do feel for him because I understand him.

I would really like him to do this work though because it's a lot of little things that would make life much more comfortable and I would like to feel more settled in. Like, I don't have a full length mirror up, my towel hooks in the bathroom are loose, etc.

I am also looking forward to slowly add those little finishing touches, like pretty things.

Hi Judy! I've missed you, but thought you were probably busy with other things too. I've been very busy this week also, and not on or posting as much.

You HAVE been really busy. Your life sounds so wonderful - lots of interesting people/places and things! It's so cool that you are psychic. I've always been hesitant to consult a psychic, even though I think it's very interesting. I'm not sure I would want to know what I might hear! LOL!

[judy]

I went to a psychic once in New Hope, PA. She was well known in town. She actually told me I would live until I was 86!!!

Nobody wants to know when they are going to die. It's kind of a unwritten rule not to ever tell people that. I don't know what her story was. Bad news has to be handled very diplomatically as well.

You do have to take it all with more than a few grains of salt also. The future is really so uncertain. The past is pretty easy to read. A person's energy at the moment is also usually clear too.

I used to read my gay friend Debby's tarot cards every so often. One reading, I began to sense a lover coming into her life. I felt that she had green eyes, and whatever else. (Debby wanted a true love). We walked into a coffee house in her neighborhood, and I said to her, "There she is Deb!" She and red-haired, green-eyed Elizabeth got married, had a son, and were happy last I saw Deb.

Then I once went to Raymond - a very well known, trendy NYC psychic. It cost $40. It was a hoot! We were welcomed into his magnificent Greenwich Village duplex by his pretty boy toy and we all sat downstairs for our turn to see the Great and Powerful Oz/Raymond.

I get my turn and go upstairs where there is a large portrait of Raymond behind him. He proceeded to tell me that I had the eyes of a twice-married woman.
(He probably counted the wrinkles!). Then he told me my daughter's name, and stuff about her. I'm sitting there listening, and it occurred to me after a while, that I just gave this man $40 to tell me things I certainly already know! He did tell me some things about my separation from my second ex, which were good
for me to think about, but all in all, what a waste of money!

That's interesting Judy. I've never really given much thought to psychics. All the ones you see around here just look like obvious phonies.

Don't go in there! The storefront phonies often tell you that somebody is after you, has cast the evil eye on you, etc. They tell you to come back once/week
so that they can somehow get you protection. If you pin t5hem down to how, they go into how they will pray over you and they involve Jesus a lot.

You're better off in church.

I definitely won't be going to any of those places, but if I ever meet you, I'd love to hear what you think!
