The Secret

Gordon and I just arrived home from Modesto. It's as flat as back home in Oklahoma here. There was a rain shower and then we saw an enormous double rainbow. Because it's so flat here were were able to see the entire arch from horizon to horizon. It was glorious.

Lilly,
You wouldn't of wanted any of my raisin bread, like a dummy I used older yeast and it was quite heavy. It didn't rise properly. My sister said she couldn't understand why I didn't use the new yeast I bought

. Oh well I learned a good lesson for the next time.

Hi Sher,
Sounds lovely....seeing a full rainbow arch...gives you a beautiful feeling to see such a sight.
Laura,
I'll still have a piece anyhow...lol xoxox
Much Love to you both

. Thanks for at least wanting a piece of my 5lb raisin bread

Hello beauties

Sorry to took so long to get here again but my health is not up to scratch, tonight I went to a party for women, it was amazing a woman named Kelli has Northern American Indian in her and she told me how the indians would hide the slaves and some interbread, fasinating conversation and the others were great women to boot!

Soon (1 week ) i am off to a retreat for three weeks to detox my body of smokes, caffine and the many other nasities i have collected.

Have missed you all heaps but my body is in sleep piolot when boys go to school, all good..

Hello my dearest friends,,,,family,,,

boy have I ever been 'remiss' in my responses to the mb....

I got the notice of the latest posts and realized,,,,if Gypsie,,,with all she's going through can manage to send in a note then I need to get off my 'busy schedule' and write also...

and like everyone,,,there's so much going on in our personal lives,,,sometimes they get tossed up in the air,,,and when they settle,,,everything is different....

sometimes I can just sit,,,,,and watch the upheaval,,,,with even excitement....knowing that when the 'fluff' settles that things will take on another 'look'.....

I've been taking a Hypnotherapy Class,,,,only two more to go and then I'll be certified.....but as we've been in classes,,,and you all know how groups go....

you get asked.....and what is your life like???? so with the Hypnotherapy Class I told them about Tranquility Base,,,,and the immediate response was that they all want to come out and help with the spring clean up....

as we went through this winter,,,,,and for us on the island,,,,, a much harder winter than we've ever experienced here....3 months of snow...
and all that that entails....and my friend just told me that we're supposed to get snow tomorrow .... yeah...ok.....

so today I need to get wood in,,,,but I do have help....

(kind of lost my train of thought....)

so there I was through this winter,,,,wondering,,,,how was I going to get this cleaned up....my 20 X 60 roof over my dog runs collapsed....my greenhouse roof collapsed (there are two trusses remaining upright and I thing their only upright because of the plastic on it...the peacock pen roof frame has collapsed.....

so in my meditations I have been asking for help,,,,,I simply cannot clean this up myself or even with a couple of women friends....so my neighbour said he'd bring his excavator over and once we have the roof taken apart he'll scoop the whole thing up and clean it up...

this is what I call the 'clean sweep' of the old.....to be removed before the new can come in....

so this last weekend I went to a workshop called The Flower of Life, and we were 16 in number,,,,,same process of questions,,,,

And what do you do???? and I got the same response....so now I have about 20 people ready and willing to come down and be on the clean up crew.....

Ask and It Is Given.....and I think I finally got the Ask part down....the 'dream' for TB is for the 'good of all',,,,a retreat,,,,a sanctuary,,,,a place of healing and learning...

AND ALOT OF FUN.....

now snow is in the forcast again.....apparently it's not quite the 'time',,,
but it is coming and this year for sure.....

the rose bud has been rather tightly closed,,,,but through these last two months,,,,it is opening,,,,and I sense it's burst forth into new life this summer......

I must put a note on the old Fire the Grid thread as I just got contacted from Shelley a couple of days ago,,,saying that she has spent her last year and a half doing the same thing.....

going within.....getting reconnected.....clearing out the old and learning to live in the 'unconditional love state'.....

I still have my house guest and I'm understanding why,,,,since this was not a light decision to bring someone into the house to live here with me while Allan is away.....

lots of lessons for both of us.....it's actually been an extremely good experience....

I have popped in occaisonally to read abit,,,,but just haven't been able to sit down and write,,,,until today....

But I do want you all to know,,,,you have been in my thoughts, prayers, and meditations 'DAILY'.....

Bless Your Hearts,,,,everyone

love and blessings

Hello everyone,
Sher, your Urantia Book womans retreat sounds heavenly... I 've listened to Lilly and PP relating events at meetings and spiritual events they have been a part of and it must be so energizing to be with a group of other energized women..(men too of course) Perhaps one of these days lilly and Gypsie and I can meet...I know...we're all so busy and some in need of rest and recupperation..(yes Miss gypsie I am talking about you!) but eventually I think it will happen.

Were you able to get pictures of the double rainbow Sher? We saw one this week but it was broken and faded in some places. The interesting thing is..that for some reason I have seen the end of the rainbow several times just across the bay from us on a point of land jutting out into the water. It is incredible to see the bushes bathed in rainbow colors. If this keeps up I will have no choice but to head over there...with shovel in hand...to look for that pot of gold...

Hey Gypsy Deb! Glad you are going to a place to completely rest and recover from the difficulties of the past year...will do you a world of good. I am wondering if you journal? Might be a fabulous time to write down the thoughts of your heart as they come through in this place of peace.

Oh Laura I had to chuckle when you spoke of your 5 lb raison bread. The same thing happened to me and it is so disappointing isn't it?

I guess that "ole yeast" must be pretty important...I haven't made a loaf in a while...bet the jar of yeast in the fridge is a bit old too. Don't think I better trust it now.
What are you planing on planting in your garden this year? Right now all we have is some lettuce and spinach, cayenne and green peppers... Oh almost forgot our volunteer pumpkin plant. Honestly, I don't know why anyone buys pumpkin when really all you have to do to raise them is throw the innards to a pumpkin on a little loose soil and they will go to town on their own. Ours is threatening to take over the back yard, garden, car and house.

Sometimes you may have to lay it out to these "unruly pumpkin plants" too. For the longest time it wasn't forming any fruits and I told it either to produce or I was pulling it out! I guess it didn't realize I was really a marshmallow and thought I meant business seeings how at the time I was removing the old and dying tomato plants. The very next day we finally saw tiny little pumkins forming here and there on the vine. (I thanked it and apologized profusely for my impatience

)

PP, it is nice to read your post as you too have been in my thoughts. I am so pleased that you found help to clean up the winter damage. I know spring and summer can be a trying time for you anyway as you battle the stinging nettle that trys to take over your property. Congradulations on your soon to be hypnotherapy certification! Sounds like another wonderful tool in your lightworker's belt! Good for you lady!

I am hoping like heck that Petra is feeling better. The last thing I heard from her was that they had been in a terrific storm and it had damaged her computer. She was hoping to have it fixed but it was over a week ago...

Okay I have bent your ears long enough.. I better get busy.
Love to all of you,
Sandy

gypsie · Post by **gypsie** » Mon Mar 30, 2009 10:14 am

I just lost everything

honestly I spent ages saying hello to everyone and as I have no idea how to use the Mac I pressed back

all gone!

Sandy yes the time is near for us to hug goodness girl I almost left this planet, imagine I would be upset if I did not hug you. And I am bursting to meet Beaver and Lily why an I so stupidly shy????

PP

I was trying to put the pictures of the orbs with the two different faces on the thread, have you worked that out, maybe I can PM Nasari???

Love you all must go feeling a tad tired, yes Sandy a journal is a great idea, I bought the boys a box each for their 13th birthday, I'm calling them their treasure boxes. Little tid bits of their life.

I still chuckle about Jack saying he has left his childhood behind turning 13, at least he said he had a wondrous childhood and laughed his way through it

it's all we can ask for as parents.

Love you all Gypsy

Can't stop Guys...ever so sorry! But the pooter's still knackered and it's frustrating the hell outta me, oh well! I keep thinking the Midwayer's don't want me here anymore, LOL silly ay?? Hmmm!
We bought az new plug and yer expert fellow said he fixed it, it works at his place...so!!!
Still hurting but gradually better. I have to pick up the kid's soon.

Hey Snady, I'll try and get to a machine asap! Urmm, oh, we had the interview and should hear from the organization this week! I'm not thinking about it at all, till we get the call!! Goodness! A little good luck would be welcome right now!

LOVE you all!! Pet XXXXXXXXX

Post by **Sandy** » Tue Mar 31, 2009 8:17 am

Good to hear from you Pet. I know its been tough the past few weeks but hang in there...something great is bound to happen.
What do you mean, you nut...( I say that in the nicest of ways

) Of course the Midwayers want you here! They love you as do we... There is only one you and nobody can feel those clod hoppers! ("shoes".. sorry regressed into southernese)
Mom and Dad were mortified when I told them what had happened to you and Phil. They said to tell you they are thinking of you both and hoping you are feeling better.
{{{{HUGS from the Miller and Barnard clan}}}}

Awh Gypsie...That is so frustrating when you loose a post like that. We'll take whatever you have the energy to type right now, we're just so darn happy that you are on board. After what you have been through we all feel blessed and thankful that you are still with us! {{{GYPSY}}}

Hope everybody is having a great day! It's a lovely rainy one in our corner of the world...I feel the urge to bake brown sugar cookies...resist...resist...

{{{{{{Everybody}}}}}}

Hi Everyone,
I've been busy with my studies and a little drained. The avvie is a picture taken in my neglected garden. I didn't place much thought before posting it. It represents faith to me, in nature, and how our will is best replaced by our Creator's will. Hope this finds you all well and happy.

Hi everyone,
Lilly, studies can take a lot out of you..I bet as you become more and more familar with the program it will become a easier and less draining. Sending you a hug, sis!

PP, Picture little ole me wagging a finger at you.."Don't overdo it!

I know...I'd be the same and flat on my back for a day too. Just can't leave it alone.

Tacos sound wonderful! (Maybe I'll have the same next week while Beaver's away

)
Love you all,
Sandy

Hey Guys! I got me 5 mins and I would love it if you all would include Phil and Mathilda in your prayers for a safe journey from here to East France and back in all but 3 days to move all our stuff from France to our NEW GORGEOUS APARTMENT IN CERVIONE! The landlord is nuttier than a fruit & nut chocolate bar, but he likes us so he can't be that mad? hahahahaha!
We weren't expecting sweeping views to the green hills and the Med either. It was all so last minute too, but the Angels were with us for the last 2 days and Phil managed to book a truck and freight passage and return in less than 24 hours. Also we found help to unload too! They go tomorrow anyway, we found out this afternoon!

Sorry I'm just blathering on about yours truly, but...you know?? I'm a vain gobshite most of the time...it's an ailment; I take pills for it and everything, hehe!

OK! I got me some packing and clearing to do. I'm grateful to you all for your thoughts and prayers. Obviously I can't be lifting stuff, but sooo much work ahead of me and I'm allergic to that!

Better go, Phil's picking me up now...

Love to ALL you beautiful people XXXX

Mornin (for me) ladies,

you got it Pet,,,,and I was just about to go into my meditation room,
so good timing there...prayers for safe travel and 'healing' ...

I hope you're on the mend,,,,TRY to not overdo it

somehow I think we all have 'deaf ear syndrome' when it comes to that,

will be looking forward to your new home pics....

oh what a view that will be,,,,I remember driving down to Spain,,,through lower France,,,,when all of a sudden there was the Med....gosh it was a beautiful sight,,,,,so I can just imagine what you'll be looking at...

the taco's were great,,,,well sort of,,,,I made the mistake of getting the hard taco shells,,,,why I don't know,,,I prefer the soft ones....when I eat the hard shells,,,,then break all up and I end up with a taco salad anyway.....so I can say,,,,the taco salad was great...

I'm in a slump though,,,,,a few things have been getting me down and it's been hard to 'keep smiling'.....

although a certain friend sent me some pics this am of smiling animals and it did lift my spirit......thanks sweetie xoxoxo

so now I'm going to take care of me for a bit....

something to eat then a hot tub - for the physical

then some time in my meditation room,,,,spirit needs some help today..

this is truly a strange feeling for me,,,,,it's like an oppressive air around me,,,,and I'm not liking it one bit...perhaps I'll even smudge the house...open the windows (and freeze)

believe it or not and yes,,,,on april fools day,,,,, IT SNOWED HERE,,,,everything was all white again....but within a few hrs it rained for the rest of the day and that white stuff is but a memory....

actually,,,now that I look outside and see what has to be done,,,the snow was probably a good thing for abit.....at least it looked nice....

well me darlins,,,,best get at changing my energy....or lifting it anyway...

loves to you all

Hi Everyone,

I only have a minute but I wanted to say hello. Even though I don't post often I do read everyone's entries.

Congrats Petra on your new apartment I sounds wonderful. I look forward to pictures. Be sure to allow your helpers to help. Let them give you that gift.

I'm off to work at the food bank but just wanted to check in.

My love to all the "girls".

Hello My Dear 11 Ladies! 11 Gents too if they happen to pop in!! Perhaps Some who read this don't even see 11:11! All are included !!! And Our Celestial Helpers!!! Ty God!!!

Gypsy! So nice to see you here Lovely Lady! I have lost so many posts the same way... To me, these are lessons in patience and it also makes you wonder about the way thoughts are things, in that, those words that you typed and disappeared before your recipients read them, are soul felt! That is sooo cool, eh! Love to You and Yours and you recuperate, and heal!! I and many others do treasure your heart!

Loads of healing coming your way!

Sandy! my Dear! I am totally going to try and grow pumpkins as you suggested! I have telling myself I will grow a garden for a few years! Hopefully Paul and I and the kids will be at a permanent residence in time to plant..... Oh my goodness! Speaking of that, there is this amazing property for. sale outside of city, in a little town with a school with k-12! The house itself is relatively new and beautiful and a very good price because of the location to my city, the only problem is that its nearly an hours drive for Paul for work.... And guess what the address is??? 1111 !!!
If its meant to be, we wil see but I thought it was soooo worth it to be in a quiet little town!!!

One more story about growing things! Our Saskatchewan flower is the Tiger Lily! They really are a beautiful lily and my story is about One in particular. There a group of tiger lily's on the east side of our house and we have transplanted some throughout the bed, they seemed to love it mostly near the rainspout! Understandably so, but somehow in the front of the house, which is on the north side and in shade under a thick cedar bush, one lilly was growing underneath in the shade. For the 4 years we lived here we didnt get to see it bloom, for in the shade it didnt! But on that fourth season, just before our separation, and many other things were coming in 4's, including Shelley Yates' son, saying 4 is God's number? There were lots, as you can imagine with our relationship with the numbers, anyhow, That year it came to grow over the bush and now saw the Sun! It was the most beautiful tiger I ever did see! Very deep colors of orange and deep beautiful center of like burgandy! I believe i have some pics somewhere of that flower! And it( but had more than one blossom was sooo much taller and wider leaves than the other lillies! I just thought to share that inspiring story of evolution... Intereting about the Light aspect! You know I believe that lilly was about 4 feet tall!

God Bless You All!!! Its the Law of Attraction!!

I love You !

Hi Sher, gypsie, Tannis, lilly, PP , Petra and all you lovely souls!

Lilly what is Bonox? If it will boost my energy I'll take one of those! Been unusually tired today...

Tannis you sound as happy as calms! Everytime I think of you and Paul I get the biggest lump in my throat and get all sentimental and emotional...I know I told you before but I just have to tell you again...I am just so darned HAPPY for you guys!
Tiger Lilys used to grow wild where I grew up in Tennessee. Gosh I used to love those flowers. Haven't seen them in years... hmmm... we'll each blossom in due season huh? We'll just keep absorbing all of those fabulus love rays and when the time is right and our flower is perfected...wow! Look out world!

Love you all...

Sandy

Hi Sandy,
Bonox is like a beef tasting liquid you put in soups and stews as stock...we used to have it in the UK when I was a wee one....you can pour some in a cup with hot water and drink it like a clear soup.
Hope your Easter weekend is nice....hope George and yourself get something from the Easter Bunny. lol xoxox
