AND ONTO CHAT

​

I think I will list May as my third favorite month. Why? Everything wakes up and nature takes over 😊

​

But let us cover a wee bit of April and happenings that went on. First as I mentioned last month I arrived back from Fort Mac and closed the newsletter with the election comments. Turning out to be true in statements being made by many of the USA government persons. As a quote from one them LOL “ Trump is a transformational President and so is Prime Minster Carney transformational. They will be the  best of friends.” I watch the news and I can assure those were the exact words spoken. Yup, so for all of those who hate Trump and voted Carney HMMMMM!!!! Is all I will say.

​

Now onto better subjects. Last few days of April as I always write and upload the newsletter before the end of each month. April 29th, I had an order for a Ritual and took care of that and then that evening I took my grandson and his girlfriend out for her birthday. Yes, she chose Cactus and truly it was a lovely time.

​

Next day I took my son out for his 54th birthday for supper and gifts. Although his birthday is technically May 1st he goes to a lacrosse game with his own grandson on Thursdays so he asked if we could do his dinner the day before. Luckily my reading I had booked on that day was for 5pm and supper was done after she left.

​

Then I took a day off and headed out for my 6-8 km walk that I take every day unless it is raining. Rain means I go downstairs and use the treadmill. I have to say once you start on daily routines of working out it feels weird when you do not. Now that the warm weather has arrived, I head out to the end of my block where a walking trail starts. I walk along there to the end and get greeted with a steep path in a forest that takes me down to the Wedgwood Ravine. Here I walk up a very steep hill, back down and then back up the other steep hill to the road. Then I cut through a nice lake and park area and back up to my walking trail and home. Takes about 1 hour or so and equals about 6-8 kms as I said. Then I head to my basement and do 160 sit ups, then the arm exercises. I use 10lb weights. Then I hang upside down on my inversion machine and end it off with the back cracking, pulling Nugabest bed. That is a gorgeous 30-minute program. If you do not know what a Nugabest bed is do google it 😊

 

Back to reads that were plentiful I must say. I actually did four reads on one of the days as I already had a Zoom read booked and three people wanted to come together. Trust me I took the following day off LOL. I am at a stage in my life where during my quiet months I only book one read a day and if they come with others then I do take more 😊

I thought I would try out Pilates. Sadly, I found it to be extremely boring and was also very surprised at the cost. $240 a month!! WOW that is more than my water bill LOL. It was a free class so now that I have tried it out, I know Pilates is not for me.

Got my winter tires changed over to summer, the irrigation system in the garden opened and set for twice a week and also took back what little bottles I had and was refunded $8.25!! Normally I receive around $20 but this year I went raw so not one single bottle was used.

​

Next my friend Brandy, a vendor who I do a lot of shows with and had invited her over for lunch a few months ago reciprocated with an invite. She lives quite close to me in an extremely nice neighborhood. I brought a salad and a gift for her cat. She had made a raw dessert with a lovely raw chocolate sauce. Chatted and exchanged updates on happenings etc. BUT!! Her cat, me oh my what a creature. I LOVED him and he really liked me. She had adopted him from ECWAR a local rescue when he was around 2 years old. He is now five years or so. He talked to me whole time and came and put his paws on me and was extremely loving. Perhaps because I had brought him a tube of Churu LOL but what a nice cat.

​

Then a couple of days off and more reads in person, zoom and phone 😊

​

Mothers Day arrived and sadly my son had gone to Vancouver that weekend so he took me out when he got back. We went to Cactus once again and what was my gift? A gift certificate to Home Depot where later in the month I headed down that way and  bought five bags of soil and some seeds consisting of tomatoes, kale, cucumber and cauliflower.

​

Talking of seeds, I may as well state that a lot of my time was spent in the garden. Either that or reading on my patio. I had finished the books I had ordered in April and proceeded to order two more books. Mowed the lawn twice and dug up weeds in the front, where to my delight most of my tulips are coming up purple 😊 GORGEOUS. Then in the back I weeded away and planted sweet corn, green beans, peas and kale. Today [27th] I plan to seed the rest which will be the more kale, tomatoes and cucumber plus trying cauliflower. Earlier in the month I planted kale in my cedar bed that sits on my patio and to my great delight it is shooting up quite nicely. The apple tree blossomed well and looking at that I will have a great harvest there.

​

NOW!! For those on Facebook do you ever see those ads for facials, massages etc.? I had booked one last year and then had a person call and quite rudely cancel it the evening before. Somewhere in St Albert. So, I have been very leery about booking any other ‘cheap’ facials from Facebook but I caved and decided to book with Utopia on the south side. Well, I have concluded that these ads are for newly opened businesses and the promotions are in hope of building clientele. HMMMM!!! May I suggest that you actually have a phone and talk to people? If you call the number, they text you back and will only deal with you that way!! Weird as I know a few [ yes only a few] who still have flip phones. Yup I kid you not and therefore these older phones do not text. Now arriving to an empty place with nobody behind the desk is not really a great welcome. But you did come out eventually and I was taken on time. Bed was hard but doable. Technician told me how I had lovely skin and no blackheads or whiteheads and we started. Then she questions me with “do you do Botox, if you put some on the lower chin it will relax it”. Now the ONLY reason I said this was to answer her question as to why I do not use Botox [or any other chemicals actually] “no I do not use Botox as it has animal product in it and I am a vegan” THEN she starts LOL. “ You do not eat meat” she states incredulously. So, if anyone knows me, they know I am outspoken about cruelty to animals and I answer “it is not meat, it is a corpse”. She then goes on !! Yup this is a business trying to get new clients. “How do you get iron and protein” Now I am getting a wee bit fed up here but I say “ the same place the animal get its protein and iron  from, plants”. Now you think she would be quiet? Nope. She then tells me she is a doctor so I figure time to shut this down. I despise talking while doing any kind of treatment so I say “Look I am 72 years old, I walk 6-8 kms every day, I have been doing this for near 30 years. I weigh 140 lbs and still work and move around like a young person.“ I also add that I do not takes naps in the afternoon or any other time of the day. There is dead silence [thankfully] for about one minute and she then says “maybe you are right”. I do not answer. :)  The facial was fine. She left afterwards with no further words of advice or explanation about the products or how to treat my skin etc. I went to pay with cash and the person at the desk say “I have no change” ????? Well, I had the exact amount so it was not an issue but I actually had to say to her “I do not use cards” as she passed me the machine. New business?? Some people still use cash. I carry change with me at all my events. Will I go back? No, I will not. There was no friendliness, or truly a nice goodbye, how was it? etc. all of that goes a long way to repeat business.

​

More reads, a couple of days off and then I took my grandson out for our once-a-month meal. We landed up going for lunch on Victoria Day. I love our meals together he always has so much to talk about 😊 as do I LOL.

My granddaughter and her fiancé are in Serbia and Greece so at times I get these gorgeous photos sent to me. Plus, I got a face time phone call while she sat on her rented suite balcony in Greece overlooking the ocean. They will be back June 9th and we will talk again then.

​

I got groceries done and PetSmart for China. Her costs are below in the Cat Cost column. And my groceries? Well first I have decided to add a wee bit of cooked food into my lifestyle. Not much just when we go out to eat or I have a craving for a wee bit. My daily salads remain and most of what I will eat will be 90% raw but I am adding in baked potatoes and on occasion the vegan egg with fried potatoes. I also made a truffle brie cheese that I put on slices of cucumbers 😊 So here is what I bought this month and at this moment I am pretty well stocked up for food. Bananas, cauliflower, celery, green apples, green grapes, green onions, kale, mangoes, organic dried cranberries, organic lemons, cucumbers, avocadoes, romaine lettuce, ambrosia apples, agave syrup, butter lettuce, Gardein crab cakes [vegan] Gardein vegan fish, Gardein chicken filets, [vegan] just egg, small red potatoes, mini cucumbers, cremini mushrooms, pink lady apples, red onion, red pepper, 5lb Russett potatoes, vegan hot dogs and buns, tomatoes, raw sugar, plant based mozzarella sticks, basil paste, and lastly 3 tubs of vegan cashew and caramel ice cream made by the company Soy. Total monthly cost for May was $424.39. So roughly $100 a week on groceries. 😊

​

Then my wonderful accountant came over with my personal and business taxes that were all filed in February and March and of course paid in full by me. I now have my accountant paid and until next year all I will have to pay is the quarterly GST.

​

THEN😊 I had my first house party of the year. She had wanted to book in April but on the same dates that I headed to Fort Mac so new dates were discussed and May 23rd was chosen. Out to Leduc I drove that evening. And what a GREAT house party it was. I had a nice room to myself on the first floor. The guests had all arrived and were sitting enjoying themselves in the basement. I set up and then went down to introduce  myself and get the first reading. They had a wonderful setting with choosing who was going after each other. The host told me that there was nothing but positive remarks said about me as they came back down after their readings. I always appreciate the compliments as I think anyone who runs a business likes to know they were  enjoyed. I know I do 😊

​

Then it slowed down. I took that time to go and buy a lawn trimmer. You know one of those things that does the edge of the lawn where the lawn mover does not cut. I actually was able to put it together myself 😊 I will be using it today. [27th]

​

My days have been spent just enjoying the opening of spring and some days it feeling like summer. The birds are eating at the bird feeder although someone must be feeding them better food as I do not have as many as in years gone by. Even over the winter I had very few and still have two containers of bird seed left over. The days are AWESOME particularly because I chose not to book any shows this past month of May. Why? Last year I did Beaumont Music Festival but once again I knew that a two-day show is not for me. I need time to read so three days or more is much better not only for my income but for people to find time to attend shows. I also dropped The Works and The Street Performers Festival to my disappointment. I had done The Works for years and then they joined up with The Street Performers Festival and everything went downhill. A lot of that was caused by the person they chose to book the vendors. People hated working with her.  

​

I walked every day, worked out every day, meditated every day, and as I said above planted, mowed the lawn, weeded, prepared food and ate on my patio. Enjoyed the weather and the heat. When it got too hot, I turned on the air conditioner although I normally only use that at night as I like my patio doors open😊

​

NETFLIX: I watched A simple Favor that I gave 5/10 and then Another Simple Favor that I gave a 2/10. Then Exterritorial that I gave a 6/10 and lastly Lioness Special Ops that I gave a 7/10. As  I said May is a busy month and TV gets put away 😊

Lastly, I always watch the hockey playoffs when the Oilers are playing and I am happy to see the ridiculous ‘booing’ when the National anthem for the USA were sung have stopped. When has politics had anything to do with hockey??? People who did this should be ashamed of themselves. And GO OILERS GO and you are now heading for the Stanley Cup if you keep playing the way you are playing.

​

And the last three days of May brought a ‘no show’ even after she corrected her arrival time so may that energy go back to her and then today [30th] I have a 6pm regular client who I could have booked yesterday but thanks to ignorance of ‘no shows’ she had to wait. And to end the month on the 31st I have a fully paid Zoom read with yet another regular client so the month started and ended strongly 😊 The Universe seems to be showing me that dropping shows that are slow is fine, they will fill the income with clients 😊 Thank You Universe for all the actions I get to choose from.

​

Now to edit, spell check and upload the news letter and set it up to go out on the 31st 😊 Enjoy and maintain the life you decide to choose. As my column below reads all of life is actions that your freedom to choose offers. 😊

​

Positive Thoughts To All till next month 😊
