NOW ONTO CHAT 😊

 

OH, APRIL LOL. What a whirlwind month. It started back to normal with office reads. I expect, in my down time, at least one read per day. I do not book more than two nowadays unless the people coming are all coming together. Then I will take up to four clients.  And the month started off with one or two reads per day either in the form of in person or Zoom 😊BUT 😊 this is the first year my shows started in April. In the past 20 years they have all either begun in February or March. So, with them beginning in April now I start to get ready not only with the items I either need to replenish, restock, or wash I also start with my own personal appointments.

 

First, I texted my aesthetician and said I wanted waxing, pedicure, hair and facial done. No reply!! I texted again the next day seeing clearly that my texts had been read and still no answer. OH WELL!! I then recalled one of my clients coming here with an amazing hairstyle. I had asked her where she went, and she told me. I then looked up the salon and booked an appointment there. Of course, lol later that day my aesthetician texted back with an apology ‘she had missed the text’ or so she said. SADLY!! She was no longer doing pedicures, so I booked the facial and waxing. No, I did not cancel the hair appointment. I DESPISE having appointments cancelled on me and I certainly do not do it to other businesses. In fact, if I get a cancellation I do not rebook! Therefore, I give out into the Universe what I believe to be respectful to other businesses.

Facial and waxing done, a week later I headed for my hair appointment. A FANTASTIC job was done. A high-priced salon but well worth the money spent. All plant-based shampoos etc. Wonderful head massage. Need I go on LOL.

 

Lastly, I had a heck of time finding a place that does pedicures without the face diaper. But luckily Evelyn Charles in the West Edmonton Mall was not only surprised at my question, her answer was “absolutely NOT, we do not wear those things here” 😊 I booked and took my pedicure last week. AND!! To my stunning LOL surprise when I went to the front desk to pay, they said as I walked up “Happy Birthday” and my immediate thought was "how the heck did they know that, I do not think I mentioned it” as they continued with "ALL is paid from your granddaughter”!! My wonderful g’daughter who lives in Vancouver had called in and paid it. [Glad I took the FULL pedicure LOL]

 

A mobile lady that I had left a message for called me back later and just as I said above, I informed her I had already booked at another place. BUT!! I may try her out next month.

 

 

So, since I have now mentioned my birthday, YUP I turned 71 on April 12th. How was my day? GREAT!! My son and his wife [my daughter in law] my grandson and his girlfriend took me out for supper. I chose Earls as per usual as everyone can eat. The plant-based menu there is superb, and dinner was GREAT. Gifts? Oh yes, birthdays need gifts LOL. It means you made it through once again to the Sun powering your day. So, along with the pedicure, I got a $50 gift certificate for Home Depot, a $150 gift certificate for Canadian Tire, a telescope lens that I am hoping will enhance the lens I have now that I find is not strong enough, and a $100 gift certificate to Bubbles. [so, I can have my van cleaned inside and out] Lastly my son went to the vegan cupcake place and brought to the restaurant vegan cupcakes that we enjoyed after the meal. Simply asked the waitress, since they do not have vegan desserts, if it was OK and she said, ‘no problem, go ahead’. 😊

 

I used the gift certificate for Bubbles the same day as my pedicure and now have a reasonable clean van inside. Not the best job I might add, and they really try to upsell you on more packages. I already had to add $50 of my own money to the gift certificate and had to be quite firm with the guy as I turned down the $500 package [yup FIVE HUNDRED] and then his pushy ways to ‘the top areas really should be polished it is another $50 ONLY’!! I finally said VERY firmly ‘do this package for $150 as I cannot afford more’ and he shut up. The actual cleaning job? Not that impressive.

 

Mid month, the day after my birthday, I had a wonderful house party. It had been booked since January and off I went to an amazing group of folks and spent a lovely afternoon doing their reads and along with a VERY generous tip, the host took care of the bill for all his guests.

 

And then the time arrived to start getting all ready for my shows. Next came laundry and going through all my pamphlets, business cards, etc. etc. and making sure I had enough food for travel.  All done I said proudly to myself as I completed all that was needed to be able to do the two shows in April.

 

However, today is the 23rd and I leave on the 25th for Fort Mcmurray so I am getting ‘Chat’ done and uploading the entire newsletter as it goes out on Tuesday the 30th. I am not returning till the mid afternoon of the 29th and do not wish to have to sit on my computer and finish up work. So, I will start next month's newsletter with the last week of April and how Fort Mac went 😊

 

I wish to mention the solar eclipse that so many in the East enjoyed. I still programmed the energy into my physical and soul alignment for myself. I took my lounging chair outside and my oh my, the conditions would have been perfect here for the pathway to darkness. BUT!! Nevertheless, I used my eclipse glasses to view about 1/8th of the Sun that was covered and brought in the power and balance from our two main energies. [ read my spiritual column below for more on that] and then to my surprise the question asked a lot was “what do we do with our eclipse glasses”? HUH??? You keep them. Anytime you want to look directly at the Sun and embrace the power of that energy you can with eclipse glasses. The Sun shines directly into my kitchen window all winter and almost every day I use the glasses to stare at the Sun and pull the power into my physical body. In the summer I do that outside. The Sun is a small beautiful dot with the glasses. Try it. The power is awesome.

 

Now along with the days that ZOOMED by in time, I had to get some groceries. Off I went and bought dish detergent powder, tons of celery for my green juice, jet dry agent for the dishwasher, 20 green apples [for the green juice] some frozen corn, 2 large packs of toilet paper, 3 tubs of vegan ice cream, 10lbs of lemons, 5 silk creamers, and since the boxes of beyond burger were on special, I grabbed one. Then I had to head to Coop for veggies as the Save On Food truck had not delivered any fresh produce!!! There I bought 10 cucumbers, some green onions, 3 cauliflowers, dry mustard, and the plant-based dumplings that only Coop sells that I love.  Then yesterday I had to mail an order from my webstore at the post office so I dropped into Save On Foods again to grab Perrier water for my show in Fort Mac and along with water I grabbed cranberries, coconut condensed vegan milk and large oat flakes. Yes, I intend to make the cookies I placed last month in the vegan kitchen column 😊 Groceries came to $307.67 for the month.

 

I then made about three weeks worth of green juice and placed the jars in my freezer plus a few meals that I enjoyed making this month.

 

Now along with my busy busy reading days I also settled into Netflix at times. Not as much as the winter months gave in time but nevertheless, I finished watched New York Homicide that I had started in late April. Interesting few episodes. The I watched 3Body Problem. WOW!! I totally enjoyed it. If you have a hard time following sequences that go back and forth in time, then this Netflix is not for you. But I don’t have a hard time focusing on back-and-forth time and thoroughly enjoyed this show.  Then I watched The Gentlemen that I was VERY UNIMPRESSED with. Absolutely not for me. However, I know some people enjoyed it. For the life of me I cannot fathom why LOL. BUT 😊 each to their own is what I say when it comes to movies and shows. Next, I watched Ripley. It is in black and white and keeps you going to the next episode. I really enjoyed it. And now I am in the middle of Baby Reindeer supposingly a true story!! I am two episodes out to the end and am stunned that this is a true story. [or so the show says] Yes, I would recommend it 😊

 

ALL my taxes are paid. Business taxes were paid in March and this last month, April, the personal taxes were uploaded and paid. I had driven out to Tofield where my wonderful accountant of 20 years resides and signed all the papers and retrieved the business and personal filings. And of course, paid her 😊 Yup, now I have another year to not even think about them. I do however have an automatic withdrawal set up so that a weekly sum of money is taken and deposited into the savings account. All loans were repaid, and I owe the government NOTHING LOL.

 

The 19th brought the first show. Local as I go home every night to sleep. I did this show last year for the first time and was impressed with the organization and treatment of the vendors. This year again we were treated like they value us. All doors are open so that traffic is not congested as we vendors set up. People placed around so that newbies are directed. Check in all ready and envelopes with passes all inside. Parking passes were emailed to us prior to the show and best of all? They value the vendors so much that they create a special parking place for us right outside the main doors. They even have a parking guard to make sure it is vendors only. Saturday, they provided tons of water, donuts, granola bars and tons of fruit for the vendors. The staff walked around all three days making sure everyone was OK. The show? It was slower than last year BUT!! Just like last year I already have bookings from it for my large packages. Plus, the fact that we are treated like gold. That really makes vendors want to come back. Will I do it next year? As long as things are trekking along like they are now I do not see why I would not do it. Sometimes I do not look at just the profit. However, I will be honest, if it was not local, I would not be doing it. It is also quite an expensive show BUT!! As I try to tell other business people, it is tax deductible making my business taxes lower.

 

And that in a nutshell was my month.   May is already being booked up and if you are thinking about getting a FULL read, please do so this month as I do not book many office reads in June, and NONE in July and August as I am back-to-back with shows.  

​

PS: Yes, I worked out almost every day, never missed my daily meditation and of course China got groomed and spoiled every day. She is also traveling with me tomorrow when I leave. [25th]

Positive Thoughts To All till next month 😊
