I suddenly had this urge to see my psychic today. I know, I know - a psychic? Yes, I see a psychic on a regular basis. I've been going to her for the last 5 years and for the most part, she has been pretty accurate. Plus she is a no-nonsense type and tells it like she sees it. She usually starts off reading my aura, then does a love-relationship reading and lastly tarot cards. 
 
I needed clarity about my life. A year ago, my aura was just black. My spirit was so damaged - still grieving for my mom as well as dealing with so much sadness from another source. And now my aura has blues and purples which I assume is good - better than black! Part of the attraction for this psychic is it's therapy. Unlike my friends who are always supportive and tends to agree and sides with me, she is an outsider and isn't partial to anyone. Plus she is right on the mark time and time again. And gives me perspective and peace of heart and mind.

I'm trying my damnedest to not let my past experiences shape who I am today. It's fucking hard as hell to not be cynical and jaded. When people you supported and believed in turns out to be the opposite of what they said they would be.  And add the fact that my biggest cheerleader is gone! What's a girl to do? Use your role model as an example - my Mom has dealt with so much and yet she was always happy all the way to the end of her life. I hope I can emulate that spirit. But my spirit is still healing. Time will tell.....

Happy holidays everyone! Are you sick and tired of hearing Christmas carols? Dealing with the crazy traffic around the malls? Well, it's now over people! I actually love listening to Christmas carols and have been listening to it for the last two weeks. Fortunately, my office is closed all next week so will take a needed break to rest and reflect on the past year. Also prepare for the new year.

Enjoyed a nice Christmas Eve dinner with my Dad at my Uncle Rob and Aunt Mona's house. Nice to see my Dad and uncle spending a little bit of time talking on the couch after dinner. And I had some girl time with my cousins and aunt. You cannot beat having a nice stress-free family celebrating Christmas. Still have tonight and tomorrow celebrating with family and friends. Will need next week to recuperate!

I'm the luckiest gal! Celebrated my birthday for the last couple of weeks with friends and family. And one more dinner to go tomorrow night. Thanks to all who took the time to celebrate with me! Here's a pic of me and my pal Joyce. 

Damn, so glad the company's Holiday party is over. Check! it was so much fun, plenty of good food and lots of drinking all around. Plus had my girls with me!

I got into the Christmas spirit with a couple of friends Friday night when we went to see Donny and Marie's Holiday concert. Ok, ok, I know - DONNY and MARIE! Really? But I loved them back in the 70s. Helen and I would watch their TV show every week and even recorded ourselves singing 'I'm a little bit country, I'm a little bit rock--roll!" It was a lot of fun. They looked amazing and I was so surprised at Marie's singing range. I never knew she had it in her. And Donny is such a good dancer but hey he did win Dancing with the Stars. 

I took my Dad to visit Por Por yesterday and all of the seniors were in lockdown in the activity room. Apparently one of the women who sits next to Por passed away. There was definitely a weird vibe but I don't think Por was aware of anything. I did try to test her memory and asked her if she knew who I was. And she said she would be dead if she didn't know me...hahahaha. Love her fiesty spirit.
