Mystic Cafe

Where my many voices become tangible.

[mysticdreamcafe]

Welcome to the MysticDreamCafe (MDC) where I rant and MysticTarotCafe (MTC) where daily card pulls and oracle spreads and tarot spreads.

I'm the voice behind this blog and I go by ManyVoices or MV. I've been using this screen name for decades so the corporation that decided it worked for them though...I'm not giving it up. Should have copywritten the damn thing.

I marked this blog as Mature just to be on the safe side. We all know there are people who don't parent their kids so i'm doing it for them. Really...like there aren't any ways around that. At least I feel I've done due diligence as an adult.

This blog will be all over the place in content, topics, etc., just like I am myself. So if you are looking for cute critter vids, keep scrolling. I don't pay attention to many, if any, famous people yet have opinions regarding some. It, really, depends what is thrown in my face during the limited time I'm on a computer of any kind.

***PAY ATTENTION TO THIS BIT PEOPLE. WHAT IS SAID HERE ARE MY OPINIONS AND NOT FACTS. I AM NOT TRYING TO SHAME ANYONE AND, INSTEAD ACCEPT THEM AS THEY ARE, NO MATTER HOW DIFFICULT THEY MAKE IT. SINCE MY OPINIONS MAY BE BASED ON INCORRECT INFORMATION OR SIMPLY MY OPNIONS DON'T MERGE WITH YOURS TOUGH SHIT. I'M USING THE FREEDOM OF SPEACH AMENDMENT AND IF YOU HAVE SOMETHING TO SAY, THAT IS INTELLIGENTLY ARTICULATED AND NOT FULL OF HATE, BS, OR TROLLING FOR THE SAKE OF CONFLICT AND SELF ATTENTION THEN PLEASE POST. i CAN BE WRONG AND CAPABLE OF DISCOURSE TO DISCUSS AND DEBATE THE ISSUES IN ADULT LIKE MANNERS.

Been a while

I've been gone a while and thought I'd pop back for a round of chatter. Might even post a card in the tarot cafe.

Seems my health has stabilized so I'm happier than I have been in a while. I'm even back to writing and have been doing water color daily to keep the calm in place.

[mysticdreamcafe]

Depressed

I'm depressed and tired of it, but can't seem to shake the funk. I hate times like this.

[mysticdreamcafe]

Brrrrrr

I'm over the crud completely now, but with the weather changing even more I'm fighting allergies. Cold, I'm fighting the cold that's come after a week of lovely mild days. It's penetrating and bone chilling.

I had to turn on the heat along with bundle up under layers so I could work around the house a bit. Even my coffee gets cold in the matter of 5 minutes. I'm talking piping hot to cool, not luke warm, in minutes. Bodes ill for the next few months.

To think I was actively wanting winter to get here so my allergies would let up. I need long johns for under my jeans and sweats to get me through this.

[mysticdreamcafe]

Oh My...

Not sure where this is heading. I'm just sick, tired, and busy all the time it seems.

It took almost a month to recover from falling and the seizure that took place at the same time. Once I recovered my daughter brought home the creeping crud from her work place where she's around children all the time. Took 2 weeks and a round of antibiotics to get over that...I'm still on the dregs of whatever it is she brought home.

I've been running errands and doing chores in between being immobile. Went to the dog park after riding stationary bike for a bit with the pups and walked a bit after by a pond. Needless to say my legs aren't used to this right now and giving me a bit of hell for it. That was followed by shops, appointments, more bike and walking, and chores. lol legs are pretty angry after 6 weeks of vegging.

Dreams won't stop, but no visitations. Just lacking deep sleep time regularly. At least they aren't nightmares. I'm taking myself off of the controlled substances, except as needed for seizures, and it's taking it's toll after years and years of exposure.

I'll call it quits here. I have things to do and need more coffee to keep my eyes open. Thanks for listening.

[mysticdreamcafe]

Wow!

It took over 3 weeks, almost 4, for me to recover from that fall. Seems it rattled my brain more than I thought at first. Tailbone is still sore, but the bone needs time to heal and I get that. However, all is much better and I'm able to walk around without fear of just toppling over and screens don't make me want to vomit after 30 seconds.

Falls and seizures aren't for the faint hearted...just like aging, lol. I do prefer it to the alternative though.

Boo Boo update

So it's been 2 weeks and still hurts to sit down. They say they didn't find anything in the x-rays but I'm not sure they did my actual tailbone.

PCP thinks it's fractured and will take a long time to heal since it's always being re-bruised each time I sit or walk. Fun times.

Boo Boo's

So, I fell off of a step ladder. Doesn't sound so bad does it? I was coming down after cleaning the top of the fridge and fell. My foot brushed another step stool, I thought the stool might be high enough but it wasn't, and that sent me crashing into a small cube refrigerator we had since my daughters college days. Those little fridges are amazingly hard, but I managed to use my head and put a dent in it.

That was Tues the 12th. We spent part of that day in the ER since my neurologist was worried about brain bleeds and such. Fun times.

I am starting to feel like my old self but still bruised and sore. Takes longer to bounce back from when you were a teenager or in your twenties when you're an older gal.

They think I had a seizure either when I was falling or afterwards. Those always take days for me to recover from if not weeks. My CNS isn't wired correctly so any disturbance causes things to go haywire.

Anyway, just wanted to share and say...beware small fridges and stools...lol

Dreamcatchers

I few months ago I was having strange and rather scary dreams so I ordered a dream catcher. I cleansed it and hung it above my bed. I've posted pics in earlier posts about dreams.

Something happened and I was having strange, almost nightmarish, dreams again. I wasn't sure what was happening until recently.

The dreamcatcher was turned around!

I saw this and flipped it back telling it I hoped it helped it do it's job, so I could sleep better at night. It did! I still dream but I don't remember them, and I don't wake with a feeling of doom or terror.

i never thought there'd be an actual direction for these items to work. Mine is decorated with butterflies and feathers and not overly large. What a difference it made just flipping it around.

The world is full of small surprises,

Seriously...

The fridge is working except for the bottom ice maker which is making mini icebergs. I'm waiting for repair guy to get ahold of me to tell me when he can fix it.

Gutter and window were fixed, too. Things are getting done, but it never seems like enough. Yes, I even put away the clothes I had in the baskets.

Went to get some stuff for the fridge, spent money I really don't have, and I can't believe the price of food. 13 items was over 70.00 before coupons. At least we have things to nosh on and make now. I'm tired of fast foods and frozen meals.

Some of the things I picked up are carrots, celery, cottage cheese, to go with the bell peppers my kid brought in last night. These will be used as snacks and cooking fodder. My health is shoddy at the moment from all the crap food. I need to focus on healthy, whole foods now I have a place to store them.

That's it for today. I'll post now instead of waiting a few days like the previous post. I simply walked away and found it unposted today.

[mysticdreamcafe]

More piles to deal with...

And I don't just mean the two baskets of laundry I need to put away.

Fridge is working, except the bottom ice maker has a leak, and life is almost back to normal. As normal as it can be with an empty ass fridge and no money for food for a couple weeks. At least all items, food wise, brought in will be fresh and no worries about use by dates.

I don't want to see another frozen meal for a long time. Not even ones I make myself.

Damn fridge

The fridge may not be fixed until tues (today is friday) and it's already been a week. If a part came in then it could be running this evening but it's a bit of a long shot. Such a waste and costly experience. The repairs are free, thank you extended warranty. It won't cover the cost of lost food though.

It could have been worse and I'd have to find a way to cover the cost of a new fridge. Those aren't cheap...even the small basic ones aren't cheap.

That's my rant. lol impressive isn't it. I'm hoping we can get the damn thing fixed today, but from past experience I know not to hold my breath.

Fed up

We bought a new refrigerator a few years ago and now it's giving up. This wasn't a cheap unit but we've had some minor issues with it since a year after purchase.

Why are things made of junk these days? No warranties worth a damn and not built to last. Water heaters, fridges, stoves, ovens, washers, and dryers used to be built to last and that's exactly what they did.

Now instead of 20 yrs. its 5. No wonder this planet hates us. We just take minerals and metals to build things to shove in piles only a few years later.

I know the monetary system we live in isn't going anywhere but you should get more for what you pay for than 5 years.
