THANK YOU TO THE DOCTORS, NURSES AND STAFF AT SOUTH COAST DISTRICT HOSPITAL

I promised staff at South Coast District Hospital (which is in Victor Harbor South Australia) that I would say how good they were on Facebook –and I did:

Decided to blog this as well.

Picture shows my usual attitude to western medicine.

from Facebook

—At 1600 hours Saturday 14/11 My doctor phoned having received some results from the blood test I had Saturday  morning:

 He said he  was sending me to South Coast Hospital by ambulance:

 I was also told that there would not be lights or sirens

but there was—-

 After the ambulance staff did their “obs” they treated me like I was having an heart attack –

 They were skilled at their job and had a great sense of humour:

Once at the hospital

both the RN, Doctor and EN introduced themselves —

 I was impressed by their manner and attitude –

I was treated with respect:

Given all information  about what tests were being done and why,

 as well as the results.

I believe one of the reasons for this is South Coast is a country hospital.

I worked in a major  city hospital in the 1980s

on one occasion I was told off by the charge nurse for spoiling patients.

All I was doing was treating them as people

THANKYOU TO THE DOCTORS, NURSES AND STAFF AT SOUTH COAST DISTRICT HOSPITAL

A MAGIC SPELL TO STOP TELEMARKETERS

FROM FACEBOOK

I do not get any scam phone calls nor telemarketers any more

“Believe in the possibility of what you want to achieve:

hold it strongly in your mind and it will happen”

From Doreen valiente “Natural Magic”

LITTLE BOXES

I just felt like posting this old song

It isn’t necessary to have majored in sociology

to get the satire

Enjoy the day

think I might come back as a seal if the planet is still habitable

SAVE ECOLOGY

Cultures that live in harmony with the environment are labelled primitive and inferior

No doubt many label me “white trash” because I don’t have a pristine lawn and concrete:

Allow leaves to stay on the ground

I don’t kill anything

Don’t use poisons.

People complain that my driveway isn’t concreted.

my trees a mess

and that birds poop on their cars

This cultural attitude is contributing to making all life extinct.

Some one said to me recently “I suppose your house was nice when you first bought it?!

It wasn’t

The house had plastic curtains on the windows

needed painting

No septic

I bought it because it had native trees

Usually because the garden looks messy to your average WASP (White Anglo Saxon Protestant) presumes the inside is a dump?

Before I bought this old holiday house I lived in a four bedroom home with a separate rumpus room and huge pink gum trees in the garden.

The neighbour behind me asked me to chop down the gums in the back yard

When I asked why

he told me that the leaves were falling on the lawn

enjoy your day

I took this on Kangaroo Island last century

Four AUDIO MEDITATIONS

CREATIVE CONSCIOUSNESS MEDITATION

I recorded Creative Consciousness meditation earlier this century at the request of a psychic development group that I was running at the time.

TREE MEDITATION paraphrased from Mother Wit by Diane Mariechild —- it is a great book if you can find it.

Am sure you are better at finding things on Google etc than me 😛 — I couldn’t find it.

ASTRAL PROJECTION

Also from Mother Wit

Past life regression

Blessed be

THREE BOOKS

(I earned fifty cents on my books this year so I assure you my motivation is to help not make a profit)

In the following book I hope to help those who wish to develop their clairvoyant abilities.

In “The Clairvoyant Experiences Of A Sceptic” I told a few of my clairvoyant experiences.

Listening to others similar stories made me realize that

it is so much better if you can have these experiences first hand.

Not a literary masterpiece but a true story.

And there are so many amazing stories omitted so as not to break client confidentiality.

The second part I wrote as therapy and had not intended to include.

It wasn’t included in the original l publication

It got a five star review in 2018

I wrote and published this sci fi short story beginning April 2017 when the human population was only 7.4 billion:

It is now close to 8 billion.

Our cultural norms and the Protestant Ethic are causing the extinction of all life:

So much has changed for the better in my lifetime but the problem is that there are way too many of us.

I have personally seen the flora and fauna just disappear.

It upsets me that all other life forms are almost extinct because of human thoughtless.

I thought that I would quote a few lines  from my  short sci fi story:

“The Nirahns whom could see close ups of the planet on their “view screen” saw people and buildings just disappear. One minute there were humans and buildings all over the planet. And then they were gone.                                                                                                                                                                     They watched vegetation grow at an accelerated speed.

Kunapipi/Anne awoke on the first day of the New Earth. She had slept in a humpy and awakened to kookaburras laughing.”

I chose the name Kunnapipi as she is an Indigenous Australian mother goddess:

But this story is not about the “real” Kunnapipi.

 Blessed be

and be kind to non humans

I took this last century on Kangaroo Island

THE OLD DAYS

My Dad and his two best friends ( in the UK) before he moved to South Australia.

I AM RE – BLOGGING THIS TO SNAP MYSELF OUT OF “POOR ME” MODE:

MY HEALTH ISSUES PREVENT MY COPING WITH BASIC THINGS LIKE

WALKING

DRIVING

HOUSEWORK ETC

Hence I cannot keep myself busy to stop brooding:

AND I AM NOW PETLESS

MY REMAINLING CAT DIED IN JULY

MY DOG DIED ON THURSDAY

Several  years ago now my youngest granddaughter (who has been teaching in the UK for a couple of years ) asked me how we survived before television.

We played in the street:

Went for long walks, exploring:

It was safe for children in South Australia back then:

And we had sing alongs often.

Karaoke isn’t the same:

But musos having a “jam” session would be similar:

My Dad and his brother (who grew up on their parents farm in Yorkshire)

Would sing old war songs:

ROLL OUT THE BARRELL

They would also Recite “Albert and the Lion”

This is Stanley Holloways version

Uncle Teddy (Edward) and Aunty Nora

Apologies for the “flash” –I have several scanners but none compatible with this laptop –so photographed the photograph.

Dad had such a dry sense of humour:

I would have to tell people that  he was joking.

I love his funny sayings—only sharing a couple:

You’re not very often right

 but you’re wrong this time”

Why worry

If you worry you die

If you don’t worry you die

So why worry”

Stay safe and happy during this pandemic

Blessed be

my son: my dog: me and Dad early this century

MY BEST FRIEND DIED YESTERDAY

Riley at Goolwa Beach

Decided to post photos of my dog for my own nostalgia

I also know many love animal pictures.

Riley was given to me the day after I buried my previous dog:

In 2011

Buster

I bought two cats from the vets in 2015

Intended to have a cat run built.

One cat, Nim, ripped his stomach open,

but after several surgeries and home nursing he got better,

only to disappear while I was in hospital Good Friday 2015

I fell crossing the road and shattered my right arm:

Nim recovering from injury

My furry family together

my furry family

The other cat, Bukkandi died a few months ago

he was only six

Bukkandi

I just love this video because it shows how expressive their faces are

Riley and Bukkandi

Riley was euthanized yesterday 5th November 2020

I have numerous pictures of him:

Only sharing a few

Riley was the only dog I have had that didn’t appear to stress when it was thundering:

But he didn’t like ambulance or police sirens:

he would mimic same

I am grateful to the vets:

nurses:

and staff at Riverport Veterinary Hospital:

for their help and support

and their patience with me.

Nurses collected Riley for his blood test because I wasn’t well enough or able to take him:

the Vet brought him home so that I could sit with him when he had the overdose of anesthetic.

enjoy your day

JUST FOR A LAUGH

FROM FACEBOOK

At the beginning of every month I post this on Facebook –– to show how grown up I am

A PINCH AND A PUNCH

FOR THE FIRST OF THE MONTH

AND NO RETURN

(This photo was taken when I was seventy — Friends told me that I would never cope with the walk at the Coorong — and I did)

Enjoy your weekend

HALLOWEEN/MAY DAY

from Facebook

It is Beltane here in OZ

The sabbats are seasonal:

so in the southern hemisphere it is Beltane (MayDay)

In the northern hemisphere it is Samhain (Halloween)

Beltane was a fertility festival where the villages would come together:

This way “in- breeding” – in the same village was lessened.

A child conceived at Beltane was considered special.

We witches in the days before Wicca became popular; and before “political correctness” ;

jokingly called it the “Nookie Festival.”

Bright Nookie!  😀

Wiccan 2nd 0001

This is me at the very first Australian Wiccan conference in 1984. At spring equinox:

Where I heard the song “Burning Times” by Charlie Murphy:

My favourite version is by Spiral Dance:

Enjoy your celebrations:

Blessed Be

and be kind and respectful of non human life forms

–the continued existence of all life depends on it
