I know some would look at that title and give a big old “duh”, but some don’t realize that things can change on a dime. Clouds shift and change moment to moment. People can do the same thing. One minute everything can seem peaceful and quiet and then next everything has been turned upside down. Even knowing this sometimes it still catches me off guard. Some changes are harder then others. Some we don’t want to accept even though we have to. I’ve had a few of those kind of changes recently and even if I don’t like them…I know there is nothing I can do to physically change it. Broken promises and plans…again nothing can be done to change it. But there is always the slight sting left behind from it. Sometimes the worst part of it is you don’t know why. You may ask about it…but you are met with silence as your answer. I’ve learned over the course of my life that sometimes silence is the answer. Maybe they are too ashamed to give you an answer or maybe they just don’t have one. Perhaps they don’t even know the answer themselves.

All that being said I know everything happens for a reason. Everyone we cross paths with in life has a purpose or reason for being in our life. Whether it’s someone you bump into on the street, someone you meet online or one of your closest friends. They all have a purpose. Sometimes it hurts to see those people leave and others you are just happy to see them go. Then there are even other times that you are happy when they come back.

I’m not sure where I was going with other then I’m rambling. I’ve had a few tarot readings lately that have been REALLY accurate and have also pointed a few things out to me. Even knowing something is coming doesn’t make the wait for it to happen any easier. If it wasn’t for other things outside of the cards pointing to it I probably would have brushed it off. Vague enough for you?

Anyway onto happier things. Little Prince went for an ADHD evaluation and it’s looking like that’s what it is. The meds seem to be helping him but he seems to be a little more sensitive lately. I have a phone appointment with his doctor on Friday and I’m planning on talking to him about it. Overall though I’m happy to see the change in him. Watching him focus more and not get as frustrated with some things is a definite plus.

Mister Man is doing well this summer too. He’s reading The Hobbit now and really liking it. He acts like he hates it when I make him read but then he’ll get lost in the story and I’ll have to interrupt for dinner or something like that.

Even better news is Big Daddy and I are going to get a vacation. An actual vacation with no kids. Thanks to some wonderful friends of ours it’s all taken care of too. It never ceases to amaze me how some people look out for their friends. It was pointed out that Big Daddy and I never really got a honeymoon. Well we went to the beach for a week about 6 months after we were married but that was with family. (And by family I mean 37 other family members on his father’s side…kids and all) We had a blast but it wasn’t a honeymoon. Anyway with the stress of the last year and a half we hadn’t thought about it but they did…and thanks to them we are going to Dragon Con Yes in 45 days hubby and I are going to geek out for an entire weekend with some great friends and thanks to some great friends.

Every day lends to new lessons from the Goddess. Today was a perfect example of that. Black Friday. This was a lesson in patience and dealing with other people’s energy projections and energy leeches if I’ve ever seen on. My Mom and I went out today to try and get some of the Christmas shopping done for the kids. We get a lot done but every year we end up asking ourselves why we do this. And we end up doing it again the next year anyway. There are always a ton of people. Which for a witch with that much energy around can be suffocating. I’m also noticing since my attunement that I’m more open to the enrgy around me. I hit my Mom and I with some Aura clearing spray before we left. By the time we finished not only was I physically tired by completley drained as well. I hit us again with the spray and then as we all sat around talking after some left over Turkey for lunch I realized that I should have had better blocks up around us. Needless to say an hour later I had fallen asleep in the chair and tok a nap. Oh well…at least I know better for next year.
