All in good time…
Do you sometimes wonder what in the sam hill is going on???
I do…
And then luckily Starshine will call from her Papa’s house and say,
Mama, you won’t be believe what Little Gem just did…
She was up on the kitchen counter grabbing a knife to stab me with and then she said,
All in good time…
All in good time…
Isn’t that hilarious???
So funny I forgot to laugh…
That kind of information about knives sends me into vertigo,
and I have to ask,
without a hint of insinuation,
Are you under supervision???
Starshine always reassures me,
Mama, you know you don’t have to worry…
Papa’s meditating in his leather chair…
And I know my sister would never really use a knife on me…
It is just like the time when I was running your biggest kitchen knife back and forth along the top of my thigh,
threatening to hurt Sissy…
I was just making a point,
to get some attention…
I offer this story to quash any impression that I am free from parenting issues…
Like everyone else,
I’m learning as I go along,
on this magic carpet ride…
Yesterday afternoon I went for an acupuncture treatment to see if I could clear the swamp out of my meridians…
On my way out the door,
after my appointment,
I stopped to talk to the man sitting on the sidewalk of Homer Street after I put a toonie in his paper cup…
He said,
Hi Dear…
Looks like you survived Christmas…
I decided not to go there…
Off the cuff comments about Christmas and survival can throw me into a wormhole like there’s no tomorrow…
I asked him if he’d had a warm meal on the 25th…
He said,
I had TWO beautiful meals…
THEY came and got me…
Everything worked out so well…
The minute I thought of something that I needed it was there…
Just like clockwork…
I said,
I’m so happy to hear that…
It sounds like you connected to your power…
Thank you for that message,
I needed it…
He said,
You’re going to have a very happy new year…
