The law of attraction

You have to watch what you fear because you bring on those boogaboos. Instead, try to think about what you do want and how to go about getting it and there the law of attraction will bring those things into your life. You know, it’s that whole secret thing, although it’s not a secret. I also feel you attract what you put out. If you are a happy and fun person, then you attract the…

And I wish it would rain

Good grief – it is about 120 with the heat index and the house is sweating to cool itself down to 80 inside. Loca tried to lay on top of me and I pushed her away because it is too damn hot. Gomez called to say he can’t believe how hot it is outside. J called to say she is sweating the pig at the Home Depot right now. People say this is when crime…

Stress is the Devil

The affirmation wasn’t intended for me per se – it was part of an extended conversation that had…

The laws of attraction

Life is so weird. You can be surrounded by a lot of people and pow, one stands out who you are attracted to. Sometimes, it doesn’t make any sense, because a) perhaps he’s wrong for you, b) you’re wrong for him, c) he’s not attracted, or d) bad timing. I don’t know what it is, but attraction is powerful – perspective gives up some ground because this magnetic draw is not rational or reasonable. Why…

Eli’s back

Eli’s back again – I felt it last night when I climbed in bed at 8:30 PM and couldn’t get to sleep. Took an Ambien at 9 PM and still couldn’t get to sleep. Eli these days is a week off from work to “work” on my book and I only did one half of what I wanted to accomplish and meantime had no extra time to do some administrative work stuff and anyway, Thursday…
