Pandora's Casket

Have you ever noticed how many people towards summer start the new diets wanting to drop the winter coats that they have gained to look good in a bathing suit?

Expecting to shed 20, 30 or even 40 pounds within a month on any diet that proclims to help. Some will go so far as to start taking some of the diet pills that they see. Not taking the time in order to see if they are good for them or even work.

I sent a friend to a site that will actually tell you which are the best diet pills to take with a good diet and exercise program. This site takes the guess work out of picking blindly on the Walmart shelves. Not to mention they even tell you the best value for these same dietary pills so you will get a good idea on what you are in for.

Before you start any diet do it responsibly and do your homework of the things that you are putting in your body before you actually do.

I was talking ot one of my close friends, Rene, and told him that I had a few new things that I wanted to do this evening. No, it is not a new hex but boy there are a couple of people that deserve some bad karma to go in their direction. Instead I am hoping that the fat burners that they take do not work and they blow up to the size of a house

Anyway I regress, telling him about this and that of what I wanted to do we got a big kick out of my horoscope that was sent to me today. It was so funny that it came in today as we were chatting about certain things.

Dreamy Neptune begins its five-month retrograde phase today, indicating a time when we can intensify our spiritual pursuits. But Neptune's change of direction is much more subtle than Mercury's, which began on May 7 and ends tomorrow. Review period is over; it's time to take what we learned and put it into motion. Today's outgoing Leo Moon squares logical Mercury, creating stress because we know what we should be doing, even if we don't want to do it.

I guess it must be a 'sign'.

I decided to take the day off. What ever possessed me I have no idea but it sounded good at the time. I worked in the morning getting the oils, kits and other orders ready to go out and a few other things when I came up with the brainiac idea of taking the entire day and evening off.

Yes, I am to pooped to pop. As I began the day of not working I realized something that I think I already knew. I get so bored not working that finding something to do is more work than if I am working.

We went out to eat lunch in Bluffton which was good and a lot of fun with the kids. Came home took a very short but needed nap until the cell phone kept ringing and ringing so decided I might as well forget the extra sleep. After that I tried to fin something to do. But what?

Finding really nothing to do that kept my interest for more than 15 minutes at a time I decided to clean my room. It needs to be straightened after the long week but have I started? Nope. I picked up one thing and looked at an order sitting there thinking I should do that and a couple of other things. haha

I told my daughter, Sabs that if I am not working I feel lost. I am a full blown, no life workaholic What I do need in order to keep up the hours that I have been keeping are nutritional health supplements for the times that I do not eat properly.

Last nights dinner was 4 chocolate chip cookies and a half a glass of water. Yumm-O!

What am going to do this evening? I have plans of not working but I see that as a no go there!

Over the past two days I have had more readings asked for than I normally care to do. I do not mind it just drains my already low energy well is all. But I do them.

I have three customers that I have been doing them for steadily for three years now and a few new clients now. All wanted readings before the weekend. Sweet Mother of Sally why?

Questions mainly on, you guessed it, love. Does he/she love me? Instead of asking me why not ask them? Cut to the point and say HEY, do you feel a certain way about me? Is that so very hard to do?

My clients are wonderful, believe me when I say that but this last slew just got to me. Of course, I did turn one person away as the reading was just a little creepy that they wanted. Won't even go there. Meet all kinds I must say.

There are times though I have wanted to tell them to go back the rv that they drove in on and leave me alone. As the answers they seek are right there in front of them. Would I say it? No. Maybe someday I will!

You know people in my circle just makes me laugh. No, more of a snicker of their being so 'occultish'. Each and everything that happens has something to do with something when in plain fact it is nothing.

I get the reports of how a flower petal fell at their feet and this must mean that the Goddess is leading them somewhere. Could it have been that you were standing in your flower garden, the wind came up and the petal fell in a normal way as they do? Why oh why does every thing have to be made into signs, leadings you name it?

While these nutcases, I say this with much love, are so busy looking at these insignificant nothings they are missing the big sign.

I enjoy revelations from my groups. Some have been in the making for many months to even years yet when it comes back to the things that are just stupid, why bother to tell me?

Or is it that since I do not practice on the same path as most of them I see it as so mundane, something that they should have seen or felt so long ago that I am turning my nose down at them? No, that is not it at all. It is the plain and simple fact that I do not find petal droppings astounding.

Time and time again I have seen these same people tell of things that has happened, I know full well this is a sign but they ignore it. Hmm, are you that ignorant? Or is it that you need to go back to the 101 course of years gone by?

Please do not think that I do not wish to hear these things as I do. It makes me laugh at the blindness that you have. Let the things that are mundane go and seek those higher signs of meaning. Or how about this, ask for a sign to be sent. Do you remember how to do this?

I am afraid though if I hear one more of those petal stories this weekend I am packing my Samsonite luggage and heading for the hills.
