An Idea Inspired by a Woman Living in her Car


Today I am thankful for ideas that spring from circumstances.


Now, I'm going to qualify with the following -

Homeless sweeps do more harm than good.

This bitchy witchy believes that there is a special place in Hades for the politicians who recommend them.  Typically those politicians are the ones who raise taxes to fund public-private partnerships promising to help homeless people

but the help is not forthcoming.

This is an idea born from a joint homeless sweep conducted by the Cities of Denver and Englewood.

There is an old woman -

homeless and living in her RV -

who planted food for herself and others to eat -

the Denver police decimated her garden and stole her property.

My understanding is that she still has her RV (but no money for gasoline).

I don't know this woman or I'd send her some gas money.

I was told of her story

and realized just how I can honor my religion while helping these people.

I'd like to buy several acres of property in the middle of nowhere to start a commune for homeless people to grow crops and live.

If I can pull this off, I could literally make the idiotic Denver Mayor a tad bit happier by lessening the problem.

Years ago, I had a dream I owned a charity called Hestia's Hearth.

Hestia is the beautiful goddess of a loving home.  She gave up her seat in the pantheon so that Dionysus could join the other Gods on Mount Olympus.

She is also the goddess of the state.

So....I'm going to pray that she helps me find a means to make this happen in a way that will not garner the ire of the government.

My goal was to visit the homeless today.

I couldn't do that.

I bought $285 worth of supplies and a wagon to carry it in.  My aim was to go to Cherry Creek State Park to find the plot that Dennis the Menace allegedly set on fire to run off an alleged homeless addict.

But.....

I got hungry and started to snack on some chocolate covered espresso beans given to me by my daughters for mother's day.

Well....they were chocolate covered peanuts.

I'm deathly allergic.

I spent most of the night sitting on my couch popping Benadryl like candy.

Damn it.....

Sometimes the best of plans can be laid to waste with stupidity.

*****

In my isolation, I realized that I'm lucky to be single.

I imagined what would happen if my non-existent husband would have found the receipts .

What would a guy say if he saw that I spent $200 on men's shoes?

Would he think I wore them?

Would he want to see them?

Would he think I was having an affair?

Yeah....I'm glad I'm single.

I definitely have a problem buying shoes.  In the past, the shoes were for me.

Now, they are for everyone else.

Love ya,

S.

Stalker Proxy Phone Calls

What kind of songs do narcissistic stalkers sing?  I imagine they sing songs like this.   I am grateful now that I understand why the stalker has people call  but   wish they'd listen when I ask them not to call again.  I probably should document this somewhere.  My ex was talking to an old friend of mine from high school on a daily basis.  She is his cousin.   I had to quit talking to her when she'd ask me to plan parties and then refuse to give me the guest list saying that the attendees would only be me, her, my stalker Shannon, and my NPD mother-in-law.   She wanted me to plan interventions.   This happened with a baby shower.  It also happened with a wedding.  The in-laws put together a fake wedding trying to host an intervention to shame me and my ex into doing things for them (like quit school and give them my car).   I had to cut this so-called friend off over that in 2004....

My Competition

Only our best friends and greatest teachers will have the courage to say those uncomfortable things to help us get out of the mud and back on our paths.   Today I am thankful for my competition. I love being a hypnotist because I have the most wonderful colleagues in the world. I bought a refresher Stop Smoking Hypnosis Course from another hypnotist trainer.  I bought it because I'm too lazy to create my own business forms.  It comes with the forms.  Usually, I can't read anything this man writes without learning something new.  I figured that I couldn't go wrong investing in his products.  I received the package yesterday.  It was supposed to contain four CDs. I received five.  Do you want to guess what the fifth one was?  It was a hypnosis session entitled "Overcome Your Lost Love." I'm a little bit tickled at that discovery. This is perfect!!! I love this guy's voice.   This is the mo...

Visiting the Graveyard in my Hometown and Addressing Fears I'll Soon Join the Party

 Today I am thankful for a laugh.  It didn't start out funny.  My aunt visits once a week to use the washer and dryer.   My new dryer broke just a few days out of warranty so we dried her clothes outside. While standing outside, she took me aside an said "I don't want to alarm you, but....." then she got silent.  I pointed at the shed.  "Are you worried about all the stuff pulled out of the shed?", I asked.  "Yes.", she replied.  "That happens all the time!"   She advised me to chain the door.  I've done that.  The thief just tears the roof off.  It's easier just to keep crap in it I don't care about so the thief can rummage and take what he or she wants.  Again, I was advised to consider moving, especially after finding a full gas can in the mess.  My aunt is afraid my ex-husband is going to kill me.  I've been court-ordered to live here for another two years.  Sigh.... I'm sure a judge would allo...
