I'm still here

Wow, it has been forever since I've been here. I've been trying to squeeze so much into my weekends now that summer is almost over. So, what's been going on? Musikfest just wrapped up it's 10 day festival last night. I went down on Aug. 2nd just to walk around and had a great time with Brenda. I ran into Sue and her daughter and we got to talking and found out that they want to be put on the cabin list for next years' Womongathering festival. The weird (or not so weird) thing is that I wasn't surprised that she was on this path. So anyway, Musikfest, heard lots of concerts this year. I didn't realize how close the hospital was to that particular stage until I noticed how clear the entire concerts were. I got to hear Avril Lavigne, Boston, Poison, Jethro Tull, and Stone Temple Pilots.

Last Sunday I headed up to Pocono for the NASCAR race. I had a blast!! I haven't been to a race in a couple of years and never realized how much I miss being there live. The only thing that I didn't miss was sitting in my car for an hour and 15 minutes trying to get out of the damn parking lot after the race. That is the one bad thing about Pocono Raceway and now I remember why I haven't been up there in a couple of years. I think next year I will head down to Dover.

I love the Olympics and watch as much as I can. I remember when I lived at home, my mother and I would watch them together every night. It's one of my favorite memories growing up. I miss having someone to cheer with. It's no fun watching it with someone who isn't as crazy as I am. I like to yell and scream at the TV and now I get looked at like I'm crazy. Which I guess I should be used to

My cousin turned 40 this past weekend and had a party. It was a blast! 12 hours of complete craziness. Fun times, although I hate my birthday and I find it weird that people want to celebrate theirs but regardless, I have a lot of fun when they do!!

Like sands through the hourglass......

I often wonder why in an adult world we have to deal with so much drama. Well, not just drama but drama that you had to deal with in junior high school. It is so disappointing to me. I don't know what is worse dealing with the drama or people trying to involve and suck you in to their drama. Ive started locking myself in my office just to get away from it. So ridiculous.

I almost forgot! The Reiki share was awesome. We also did some lymphatic drainage healing, which was also cool. I have no idea if this has anything to do with it but the next day I got my period and I totally wasn't due. Who knows.

Something odd happened during the Reiki share that I haven't experienced before. While giving Sharon some much needed Reiki on her smashed up elbow she started to experience some pain, which is normal for her given her 6 hour surgery, therapy, and practically no elbow left to put together. Now, her pain was so fierce that I couldn't even put my hands over her elbow yet alone touch it. My hands started to tremble uncontrollably and I had to step away and shake them out and pick another location to do my healing. So incredibly weird.

Just my sick sense of humor

When I read this online it really made me laugh, so I had to copy it down.

Zombie Emergency Procedure

In Case of a Zombie Apocalypse
95% of all known zombies can be stopped by decapitation or destroying the brain. Aim your desperate, improvised weapons at the head and neck.

DO NOT SPLIT UP
Someone WILL get killed, turn into a zombie and the next person to see them will go, "Oh, it's my friend, I'll just turn my back and OH GOD WHY IS HE EATING MY BRAIN?!"

DO NOT USE FIRE
The only thing worse than undead hordes trying to eat your brain, is undead hordes trying to eat your brain WHILE ON FIRE!

Sharing the Reiki love

We are having a Reiki share on Saturday at Sharon's house. I can't wait. I really need to get back into the swing of things. This is coming at such a perfect time. I'll make sure to let you all know how it went.

Wow, tonight just flew on by. I had to run a lot of reports to do a little investigation tonight. Well, that little investigation turned into over 6 hours of hell. I think my eyes may be crossed. All because of someone saying that they are doing something that they really aren't. Why are people so lazy. You got to be at work for 8 hours, why not do what your supposed to do. It's frustrating but rewarding because by tomorrow I should have her ass nailed to the wall with all the proof that I have.

Distance Reiki

Since I took Reiki at Womongathering this year I've made it a point in practicing not only self Reiki, but distance Reiki as well. One thing that I noticed when I'm doing distance Reiki is that the energy connection is so strong that I can actually feel the person's pain. When I sent distance Reiki to Sharon for her elbow, I got such bad pain in my elbow and then my hand cramped up and I couldn't move it. I continued sending the Reiki until it was gone. After I was done I called her to tell her what had happened. She kind of giggled and said, I am so sorry. The weird thing is now I know when she needs it the most. I woke up the other night around 2 in the morning with really bad pain in my elbow. So, I gave Reiki to myself and sent it to her as well. When I spoke with her she told me that she really didn't sleep that well that night because she was having pain. My response was, yeah, I know. I think I really need to learn how to balance out all this energy. Maybe that's why I'm so tired.
