Scary
Still have not listened to any of the money talks (but I am interested, so I will?) and I wonder why the universe pushes us in certain directions and we can eat at a chain...a chorizo salad was good and filling and affected a grocery shopping trip...mostly healthy because there was so much candy, and the universe showed me a girl who needed to dissect Sheryl Sandberg for having "weak arguments" as well as a guy with an interest in the impoverished but a greater need to focus on Ford's and J.P. Morgan's successes...and now it is late, so it seems like there are times when the thought of business models catering to the needs of mostly one type of person just becomes increasingly horrific...
That guy
was hanging out with his friends in a livingroom inside a big white house which has been converted into apartments and sitting next to the open window on the ground floor near a big white plastic bucket of candy to hand out to trick 'r treaters now I am thinking of New York

That's what can happen in common spaces
it was sort of amusing at first, as if this person could be like a yoga instructor, another curious student of life, & maybe if this observation went on long enough there would eventually be some sort of interesting maneuver, but when the person became startled / embarrassed / left the library, it seemed less funny and more like what happened when the wealthy parent of a friend who was about to be whisked away into a private school came over one day, not only to collect her kid but also to assess your "appearance"
It's just another set of choices

old...
for some reason, and different from feeling like the little bits of seeing came from astral travels, the universe seems for me to want to think I was a teenager on a visit to Pennsylvania once, often thinking about what to do with stories in my head about a tall young man who had lived before, and maybe partially for this reason briefly noticing something about a tall gifted young man surrounded by other people in a brightly interiored family style restaurant...and feeling a difference...and then leaving with a smaller group of people, feeling somewhat under a guardian...and this seems possible...young people are full of imagination & promise...

It's weird when you realize that someone who can be nice or on good behavior also lives in a state of shock/survival mode and doesn't seem care if sometimes an abusive, controlling bully takes over. It's weird when you realize he may be that way because he was abused himself. It's weird when you realize you had a nicer first impression that deteriorated and you wanted to get that nice impression back. It's weird when you realize that such a controlling person could squeeze the life out of something that was supposed to be good and full of promise. It's weird when you realize people can be terribly entitled and abuse their power, even those who were once better than that. It's weird when you know it could be fun but deep down inside you know it is not any more. It stopped.

Like a human version of a sick tree, wandering through a house wailing and keening, can't seem to converse normally, later humans speak intelligibly, you have some limited language capabilities, there is a girl being cold, saying this is not your castle, telling you that "x" says everything went wrong because of you, expensive ballet lessons, screaming tree dreams...

"The word is aglæca/æglæca — no one's entirely sure how to pronounce it – and, as Headley explains, that same word is used to describe Beowulf and his three antagonists: Grendel, Grendel's mother, and the dragon.
'In the early English translations it was translated for Beowulf as 'hero' and for Grendel as 'monster,' and for Grendel's mother as 'wretch of a woman' or 'hag,' ' Headley says. "But it's the same word.'"

...well, will probably torment / entertain self tonight with just one episode of a traumatizing show even though nerves may be more sensitive than the average viewer's (why??? dunno but APPARENTLY am not yet ready to be fully enlightened / attending church / doing all the yoga / housecleaning, even though it sometimes it all sounds nice etc. etc. etc.) maybe will do some laundry also vamos a ver...
Late night thoughts
On the positive side: maybe cleaning is like reengineering a life..and paying down debt!
And the Affordable Care Act finally gave me the means to get an MRI, cat scans and regular tests during checkups, which doesn't fix it all, but at least it legitimizes my situation to certain people...
...some scattered thoughts still...
...maybe not everyone feels they have the luxury of inquiring into their own state of health...even people in very different situations in their lives could still be suffering in other ways...
And sometimes there are people who kick into survival mode and choose to turn a blind eye to how their own untreated ailments can extend out to how they treat others...this can sabotage and ruin situations which could have been better...
People who abuse their positions of so-called "power" don't get to spread their unhealthy and despotic behavior patterns to everybody.

It is time for the universe to be quiet...recovery and rest now. There was a situation. Water needed. Some people need extra help. Please ask for the universe to help you. Illness, physical and or otherwise, is a cry for help and healing. Severe, debilitating ptsd is not a joke. It is a real illness. It affects everything. Words fail to describe what happens. Healing programs must be out there. The universe is bigger and has more than we know. There must be a way to heal. Find helpful words...energies...water...

There are some people I could not trust to be good to a cat, let alone a child. There are unfathomable remnants of cruelty in people who used to seem okay, who could have been so much better. Was this around the time a voice said don't take that card. I think maybe it was.
This is an era of so much mental illness. Sometimes people get by because they have special privileges and clearances and money and sometimes because of their European heritage but only for some of them.

Trust is not a joke
I am sorry your brother turned out to be one of those guys. It must be hard to change when a person's been abused and trained to always be the dominant one in order to survive and never has to go to therapy.

"One of Perry’s most memorable products was Rachel’s Radiant Light Color Therapy system, which used certain colors and fragrances to balance one’s electromagnetic field.
Perry was also active in rainforest preservation and animal rights campaigns. She even based a line on sustainably harvested rainforest plants and contributed a portion of the profits to help preserve the rainforest.
Perry also had a career as a singer and songwriter. Her song 'Fine, Fine Day,' was recorded by Roberta Flack and debuted on the album Blue Lights in the Basement."

I have a keen interest in spirituality. Sorry if I have not paid enough attention to that. My body does not follow the script. I do not feel well-understood. I have part-time work status. I have helped a lot of people. I can do a long term relationship. I need to learn from my body. I do not have kids. I have never married. I did not plan for it to be that way though. I have other friends who did not have kids. We speak on the phone. They are in other states. I wonder why. I seem to know others who don't want to change their name, even if they do marry. I know people can come back. I have to get very smart about what the universe is doing with me, giving me this body. I love to learn. That may be why I have a developing interest in spirituality. It is all about learning. Spirituality is for everyone. It also includes the heart...
For some reason
Thinking about making candles with a friend of my mother's at her house when I was 11 or 12....
She worked with disabled kids before she retired. She was so about living in the moment. She had a keen interest in spirituality. She loved dogs.

Such an intense dream about leaving a backpack on a bus and trying to catch it when it comes back around on the next loop.
I could cry. Health stuff is so worrying. You know when a doctor looks worried about something you did not expect...
You have to change your life.
How do you want to be remembered.
Even if you are a small fry.

Good, caring mothers in Ohio (why not?)
MOM : Well neither of us care for the president's tone, but as my hardworking, solidly middle class husband says, he knows how to get the job done.
DISEMBODIED VOICE: "'Mom ran from her bed and somehow lifted the chest off me, straining so hard she tore her stitches.' That's an excerpt from Sarah Smarsh's Heartland, available now on Amazon."
MOM: *screams*

"'I’m feeling better and better about him all the time,” said Mr. Peters, 63, a retired engineer, who had once been cool to Mr. Trump.
Mr. Fidelibus, 75, a retired banker in a Calloway hat, had also once been skeptical of the president’s bullying and lack of self-control.
'I’m a supporter of Trump now,' he said 'He may not always say things the way most presidents before him said them, but what does it matter? They didn’t get the job done.'”

I still don't get why this woman has such a strong need to put "not intended for the US and Canada" on her videos.

Everyone always gets good news when they go to the doctor.
Everyone else's bodily organs function as well mine function.
All sick people have the same obvious outward symptoms or else they are not truly sick.
Everyone can work for the money like I work for the money. Look at how I do it.
Every woman gets married and is easily made pregnant just because we were all trained to think that way.
If not, adoption is always a joy and easily obtainable.
People who don't have kids and work full time like I do are clearly lazy and not fully contributing members to society like I am.

Healthifying world...
The world needs to eat less meat.
https://www.theguardian.com/environment/2018/oct/10/huge-reduction-in-meat-eating-essential-to-avoid-climate-breakdown
So do I, and apparently need to get an ultrasound to look at kidneys. SIGH.
So that will be a PCOS diet but not too much protein.
I do like vegetables and fruits though.
Especially berries.
But so used to...need protein to feel okay...
Interesting.

Yes, there was an episode in which a man in a meat department fired a female employee after their boss was made aware of some differences (he said knew she knew her stuff and said he "had her back" then went on vacation.) Same old story: new guy just starting gets to cut the meat, woman who was hired to cut it gets to stay late and clean up after the guys all the time / customer on the phone only wants to speak to one of the men who works there.) The old job (pays way less but at least you get respect!) took her back. They are delighted. The holidays are coming!

"Aimee stood behind the wine bar. For the old men, she poured water into red to make bevanda, and for the women sparkling into white to make gemišt. In the kitchen, Josie formed chivapis from ground lamb and beef and pork and Renee made a blitva of potatoes and greens. Clint and Mike ferried chairs for their babas and djeds and my husband and I stood there, mesmerized, surrounded by family of a kind we knew we’d never have."
"There was no running. They were the human race and I was the nature in their path."
~K. Gardiner, Little Wonder
In addition to the beverage descriptions, felt drawn to the intersection of idealized lost Pacific Northwest paradise and tasty Croatian food.

"When she told me the story, it was about a day she barely survived because of my dad’s absence. I see it now as a day she barely survived because society valued productivity and autonomy more than it valued women and children."
===
“'Please don’t go, please don’t go,' she said, screaming and crying. She often screamed but almost never cried. It was like something had broken in her when the stitches between her legs tore.
But Dad packed up his tools and left again.
He was concerned about providing for his family, he told me when I was grown, sitting next to him in his work truck and telling him how Mom remembered that day."
===
"Dad had a quiet inner life as a self-healer. Once in a while he shared it with me, and in that way he was the most maternal force in my life."

O yesterday
I was in pain and a woman was telling me that where she comes from, they don't talk about adoption. "If it didn't come out of your body, it doesn't count." Childless women are eyed with suspicion by age 30 and a mother can acquire a second wife for her son if she deems it necessary. "Also it is always considered the woman's problem, even though sometimes it is the man's."

O happy womb!
When I was a kid I read a book that talked about a woman who sort of drifted around like a ghost in all white, exclaiming "o happy day!"
What book was that?
I think it also talked about a spring house. It was quite interesting and old-fashioned.

Trained to talk to the one that counts
"I asked several him questions. He blushed and looked over my shoulder at my husband, Paul, and prefaced each answer with Paul's name to make it clear to whom he was speaking...he was not really being rude, but that since I was a woman, I simply didn't count."

There's a not happy place
Change. Its time to go into that part of your brain where a bunch of biblical women tried to brainwash you into putting men's needs, wishes, and dreams above your own and the men of course had no problem with that. Change. Sex role, head of the household. You are nearly dead. Of course they didn't tell you how to cope with a special disease either. They didn't have that to deal with. They had their Bibles. Their vote for the president reaffirms how little you are worth to them in this body. Society is still sick, is obsessed with male leadership, no matter how incompetent. Change.

Oh heating pad
Horrible physical cramps and hours earlier a bad crying spell. Maybe it was the wrong time of cycle to eat that not-so-healthy item for dinner. (That is correct). I did not follow that special plan. I should follow it. I hope I don't disintegrate into nothing. I am not in the body of a man nor a woman who gets to live without this bad health issue and survival is what they don't understand and did not ever have to deal with. Your parents do not have your genetics. There must be a better way of living through this.

Y:

Y:

Y:
X: have you ever considered going to a hospital or nursing home and just sitting with people there

These twins can play guitar and sing about the laid-back West Coast Life we all deserve:
Cayucos, High School Lover, Hella
Cayucos, High School Lover, Hella
Because it is a break from the real news
"I will continue to watch the rest of H's Tale S1E2 "Birth Day" (the ending was good) and then R&M S1E2 "Lawnmower Dog" and report having done so in hopes of sending messages out into the universe about overhauling the old-fashioned "girls watch shows about boys, but boys won’t do the same" phenomenon OW PAIN BLAST THIS I MEAN SEND IN THE ANGEL HARPS and in addition to a second women in horror movies reference (The first was in "Birth Day") there was a good use of Twisted Sister on SNL weekend update 10/6/18.
