That’s me!
Last week, when I was feeling crappy at work, I asked the angels for a cookie. Not an hour later, the UPS dude brought me a tin of Berger cookies from one of the brokers at work (who sends them to clients and other co-workers.) Woo hoo! (Always loves me some cookies)
MMM!
And then Sunday, I found myself wishing for a really nice handbag. I’m not one to be all about labels and such and I have no idea where this wish came from. But ‘lo and behold, guess what gift I got from my sweet friend at work (PattyMac)? Yep. And mine is a beautiful shade of purple, too!
So, I’m thinking. What else can I manifest with these awesome skillz??
heheh You never know, right?
The Queen’s Meme – Duchovny Style
1. When is the last time someone did something EXtra-special for you?
One of the nice people for whom I did a reading from my Thanksgiving offer posted this lovely comment in the thread:
I want to chime in and add my great appreciation for you and for your true gift. Thank you for being of service. I would not hesitate to recommend you to others, and any reading this. That made my heart happy.
2. Name one EXciting thing that happens in your life daily. It’s pretty amazing that I get paid to do such an easy (if at times frustrating) job.
3. Tell us the good, the bad and the uglies of your online EXperiences.
The Good: I can look up stuff about anything that floats into my head. I love being able to do that.
The Bad: Picking up people’s energies from their written word. Sometimes I feel like I’ve been barfed on.
The Ugly: I’m with Gal on her People of Walmart comment. Have these people no friends?
4. What makes an ordinary day EXtraordinary and EXceptional?
Cookies!! They are the best things ever! (And possibly some pumpkin coffee too)
5. Name one embarrassing incident you had to EXplain to your mother when you were a child. I had to try to explain to my mom how my friend Lisa came back from a walk with her boyfriend Steve with her shirt buttoned up the wrong way. (We were 15, it was a party and Lisa was gone for a L O N G time. Yeah, mom wasn’t happy when she finally returned … disheveled. I mostly stayed out of it.)
6. If you could FedEX yourself anywhere in the world, where would you go?
To a beach somewhere with adult beverages, men of my choosing and mashed potatoes. Alcohol, men (of my choosing – that means you, David Cook and you too Eddie Izzard) and comfort food. That’s me in a nutshell (or a nuthouse, more likely).
7. Who would you like to EXray and why?
The aforementioned David Cook so that I can definitively answer the question as to whether size 13 shoes equate to … uh, equally sized boy parts. (Well, you asked!)

This is exactly the kind of day when it’s going to be hard work holding the vibration of joy. I’m tired because I watched an episode of Intervention before going to bed (I know, what the hell was I thinking?) and then couldn’t get to sleep. After coming back downstairs, farting around online, drinking coffee (I know, what the hell was I thinking?), I finally managed to fall asleep around 2am. Woke up all groggy and blarghy.
Gal, thanks for helping me understand my weird OCD around fonts and whatnot. You’re right – my writing and presentation thereof is a reflection of me and so I want it to show on the outside how my soul really is on the inside. (Thank goodness I don’t have that same standard of measure for my cluttery house!) I spent an hour last night again futzing with templates and finally forced myself to just pick ONE and go with it. I don’t know what my issue is but I have to get past it on this.
And here’s a GRRR I encountered yesterday and was thisclose to saying something but thanks to my Angels intercession, I had to turn away and force myself to just be quiet. A client was in the office and the broker wished them Happy Holidays to which they said “I prefer to say Merry Christmas” (and honestly, WTF? How about you just be a nice person and say “the same to you” because the intent is for your happiness, mmmkay?). Evangelical Christian co-worker (the one who thinks I am the devil in disguise) says “Oh, I am so glad to hear you say that!”. I wanted to turn to both the client AND EC C-W and say “Saying Happy Holidays is a way to respect ALL faiths, not just yours which you seem to think must be followed by everyone else.” It just pissed me off. (trying hard to avert a longer rant). Damn. Must everyone be so fucking closed minded?
Long story somewhat shorter: Angels pretty much put masking tape on my mouth and said “Turn away now and just be quiet!” and so I did because while I may be Satan’s minion some days, my angels always win out.
BTW, I ate all the cookies I had left. And am 900000 pounds now.
Whew! Finally finished the readings (all 35 of them) and am glad to have that done with (or get an ass-whupping from my own Guides) and what wonderful feedback! I was going to print some but it felt too much like I was tooting my own horn so you’ll just have to imagine it. I am definitely ready to go public with this now. Next step is getting my own little basic website up.
Surprise! I am actually very anal about things like that and can spend hours and hours seeking out just the right font. And that’s not good and it surely doesn’t help get the site out there. So, my agreement with my own self this time (not with the angels) is to put one up even if it’s simple and without the perfect font. Just have a place to point people to go when they want to know more about my readings and me. (I don’t think the general population is ready for ye olde Snarkypants, hmm?)
In other news – cookies are done! And I think I’ve eaten enough to keep me away from them for years months, oh hell, you get it. I love these cookies! Therefore, I am taking them into work for my buddy, PattyMac. She’s a size 0 so can eat them without concern. I am not quite a 0 so, you know. Not so much without the concern. Pics of cookies posted later.
And … started a new puzzle. 504 pieces. I cannot begin to tell you how overwhelmed I am looking at all those pieces. Give me your deepest emotional pain and I am right there with you. But give me 504 pieces of a puzzle and I am totally overwhelmed and want to run away. This, my friends, just goes to show you how hard it is for me to come down out of my little mental world into the physical and, of course, exactly the reason my coach has suggested this project. Blargh.
Oh yeah, and it’s Monday. Wheee!

… I got answers! (sort of, anyway)
The Darling Gal asked this question in the comments on the post “To-Do List from the angels”
“Just woo-woo curious — Do you ever know the final outcome? Do the angels know what’s going to happen and report, or can they change what’s going to happen? Sorry if these are remedial questions, but I’m new to understanding the woo-woo.”
Good question! I have a tendency to think that everyone understands “the woo” in the same way I do so I always appreciate questions that remind me to explain myself better. Thanks for giving me the opportunity to do that, Gal!
I shall caveat my answer with this: this is how *I* understand it to be. I am not saying that it’s THE way (mostly since I don’t think there is ONE way for anything) but it’s the way it feels to me. That said, let me see if I can clarify things.
Guides and teachers cannot interfere with your free will. You are the one who always makes the choices and can change them at any time. Imagine a board of advisors who sit with you at a round table. You are sharing with them what your intentions are for the next year. They can offer you suggestions as to what might be a good way to get there. They can also offer alternatives. In the end, though, it’s always down to you to make the final decision.
In addition, they cannot offer guidance unless you invite them to do so. The only time (again, as I understand it) they can jump in unbidden is if your life is in danger and it’s not your soul’s wish to leave the physical plane. Unless you’re Bella in Twilight, that doesn’t happen too often.
In my case, my Guides know that my heart’s desire (besides David Cook, being tall and thin and baby-holding) is to broaden my work as an intuitive. I’ve clearly put that intention out there and allowed the Universe to assist me with it. My part in it is to remain conscious (as opposed to in a coma? heh) and note the “coincidences” that come to me with regard to that intention. Like the blue balloons that I got as a response to my hysterical whining in the car that one time, or that I got two requests for intuitive readings and the individuals offered to pay me for them. (Not that it’s such a shock but I didn’t ask for payment at all and it was a really nice validation that the work I do will help support me financially.)
Gal also asked if the angels know the outcome – because the free will thing comes into play, the answer is no. You put the intention out there and ask for help. Then you pay attention to what comes in front of you – opportunities, coincidences, shifts and changes in things around you. At any time, you can change your route and your guides will be right there alongside you like a trusted team of advisors and friends who want only your highest good. Doesn’t mean weird stuff won’t happen to you as you move along that path. But if you ask “what is the lesson in this?” and really try to understand it from that perspective, the weird stuff flows through a bit faster.
I hope that answered your questions, G. Again, this is from my reading but more importantly, my experience. The readings I’ve done for everyone have been like that. The Guides nudge you a bit where you are slacking off, or help you see things that you might not notice. I truly find that the more I work with them collaboratively, the more things seem to come together and flow.
Ever since I made the offer to do intuitive readings for friends on a forum, I have had such an amazing sense of heightened awareness. It’s as if I’ve taken a leap to a whole new level. I’m still working through them (have about 8 to go – there were about 32 requests total) and do about 2-3 at a time. The feedback has been great – it’s nice to hear that what comes through resonates with those who asked. It’s also helped remind me that *this* is my work here at this time. The more I do it, the clearer I get.
Which brings me to …. the To-Do list I got yesterday morning. It was for a week’s worth of activities.
1. Finish all readings by end of the week
2. work on new (401 piece!!) puzzle
3. ride bike for 15 mins 3x
4. work on website for offering intuitive readings
5. Once that’s up and ready, post on Twitter with special offer for readings
6. Apply to Slade Roberson’s Professional Intuitive Training Program (more on this in a bit)
It was literally *that* clear. And you guys know that when I get guidance (especially when it’s that specific), I am bound to do it. If I don’t, I usually get a swift kick in the ass in the form of that horrible “Why didn’t I listen?” feeling and consequences to follow. It took me about 3 of those before I got it. Not fun.
I think much of the clarity has to do with my action lately – getting out there and offering the readings. For me, doing the reading is the easy part. It’s putting myself out there as an intuitive that is a bit harder to do. (Who knows why? I mean, if you know me at all IRL or even here, I’m pretty open about being quite the woo-woo chick so that whole fear of being out there baffles me.)
Andrea Hess, whom I found through Slade, has created a course on manifesting which is, honestly, amazing in how it takes a pretty huge concept and brings it down into actionable steps. She manages to bridge the piece that most people leave out – taking action here in the physical in addition to setting the energetic vibration. I’m going to talk more about this in another post and share with you what I’m working on around that. I mention it here because it’s all tied in together with the huge downloads of information and guidance I’m getting.
The time for me sitting around and spacing out is, for the most part, gone. I’m definitely not sitting my ass in the middle of the road, waiting and hoping. I’m (finally) moving and as I move, things shift in pretty profound ways. They have already and I trust – TRUST – with all my heart the guidance that I’m getting. I don’t know the end result, don’t know how I’m going to get there. I do know that I will understand what the next right step is and as long as I continue to take action, it will be to my highest good.
So, there you have it. Lots going on, no?
