Boxing Day

I hope you all had a WONDER FILLED Christmas full of Joy and Peace and Blessings.

I had an unexpectedly enjoyable day! The few days leading up to Christmas I realised for the first time ever that I really disliked Christmas. It was very healing to admit that - it came from being a child and having the conflicting emotions of WOW at all the presents and horror at having to be with all the people who used to abuse me, keep the secrets AND pretend to be having fun and happy about it!

I cried alot on Christmas eve and told Beloved how I felt. We decided that we will begin to create some new Joy filled Christmas traditions. I gave the pain and fear to the Angels and told them I was done with it - I didn't need it any more and asked them to take it from me permanently.

I awoke on Christmas morning not really sure how I felt - all the familiar feelings of dread and excitement were no where to be found and I truly wasn't sure how I felt or how I should feel!

Beloved and I had a wonderful breakfast and went to do a little more work on our shop preparations. Just dropped off more stock and then came home and got really dressed up to go out for Christmas lunch. We went to the local RSL club with MIL and her neighbours and had an absolutely delightful time! The food was yummy! The company was lovely! We decorated our table with beautiful mauve tinsel and had good expensive bon bons with groovy pressies in them. We saw lots of people we new and had lots of yummy Christmas cuddles.

We were planning to go back into the shop after lunch but decided "bugger it" we deserve a day of rest so we both came home and had a snooze - as you do on Christmas day! and had a really yummy evening just being together.

Today we went into our shop at 6am because we hadn't done anything yesterday and were almost ready to open about 10am (except for mess all over the counter!) and I wrote OPEN on a big board out the front and suddenly there were people everywhere! It was all hands on deck to clean the crap away and be ready for trade.

We closed at 2pm today very very pleased with the days trade we did! We have some FANTASTIC bargains - most of the stock is at cost price - we have had it for over 12 months in the garage and it is all paid for so whatever we can get for it now is a wonderful thing.

I had a couple of enquiries about readings - and panicked - They both asked how much and said "Oh, okay" and left, so of course I decided I was too expensive and no-one would come to me for a reading and blah blah blah... Beloved in her wonderful 'subtle as a brick' style told me to get over it - so I did. Then I realised that the Psychic Fair is only4 days away - wow that has come around quickly! I am so excited!

So, that is my last few days. Some wonderful and deep healing, lots of love, laughter and blessings and a few tears thrown in for good measure.

Sending you all giggles for the New Year!
