Actually, I lived in Aberdeen, Scotland but they got all the same TV. Where did you live? We were there from 1989 to 1994.

Hi all, Sheri thanks for the good energies, I really appreciate you thoughtfulness. I am enjoying working on my alter, although I do have a hard time deciding what to put on it. I'm going to attempt to make a Brigid statue, time will tell if I can actually do it. LOL.
I do love the Good Neighbors, I love most British comedies, and mysteries. I'm really jealous of you all living in England. I have some friends there and I've often told them if I ever come for a visit, I ain't leaving. LOL. I watch the shows and think, hey I could live in that little village and be really happy. Of course, I'm not unhappy here, just think it would be really neat.
Hope everyone is having a great day. blessings Phyllis |

| Hey Sheri, I forgot to say congrats on your new greenhouse !!!! that is amazing !!! we have talked about turning the gazebo in the back yard into a small green house. for now, I'm just trying to figure out where to put the garden beds and my herb garden. there is so much to do here, old houses are so much fun. LOL. actually I do love it, always wanted to live in a old house. my best memories are at my aunts who always lived in old houses, and had flowers and was and is a real farmgirl. I hope to be just like her when I grow up. LOL. blessings Phyllis |

Oh Sheri I wish I had a greenhouse! Congrats!! I know that you will love it. We have so much shade right now in our yard - I hope to cut some of the old dead trees down. Tn.Earthmama - I laughed when you said that you freaked your mom out when you were little. My mom just figured that I was different and went with it I guess. I think that I was so head strong from the beginning I must have tierd her out. I haven't seen the show Good Neighbors how can I see it here in the states?

I lived in Devon in the south west of England...not very far from Exmoor and all it's wonderful legends. I only lived there a few months in 1985, but would move back in a heartbeat!
I'm getting a greenhouse too! My oldest daughter is building it as part of her ag class. It should be done in the next week or two and I can hardly wait!

Yes, I am really excited. I have struggled for so many years just trying to harden off my plants or keeping them going until they are finished at the end of the season. Just the plastic I need to buy for the hoops though is really spendy. We had tried to get it moved last fall but my friend's husband passed from cancer so we just left it until now. I have been so lucky to be so blessed by gifts like that.
I think we draw to ourselves our fondest wishes. Sometimes it may take years before things materialize but eventually they do. I was pondering where I am in my life just the other day and realized that just about everything I wished for as a teenager has come to fruition. I have my homestead. I live in a log house. I have my gardens, my sheep, my chickens, my spinning wheels...the list goes on and on. How truly magical life is in retrospect!! Did it just materialize? No. Did I work my butt off for it? Yes. Was it worth it??? Yes, yes and yes. The only thing I really wanted and haven't received yet is a floor loom. I am sure I will get there.
Have you ever sat down and thought about what you projected into your future as a teen and what if any of it came true? Interesting. Would love to hear what your experiences at manifestation have been.
Blessings, Sheri

Sheep Mom 2 I can say that I am still in the process of my fondest wishes. I have my two boys (just about grown). A wonderful husband who a has the same aspirations of owning a homestead. I have always believed like you have stated that we can project our future but it does take hard work. I will keep venturing towards my wishes. Oh - somethings have come to pass with not as much work - I consider those things as gifts that I have been blessed with or my good deeds have been returned to me. Barbara

I KNEW I had seen this topic when I first started looking around in the Chat Rooms but could never find it again!! Glad to be here with you ladies!
In my early 20s I was drawn to the Earth Religions and have been studying and learning ever since (almost 30 years).
Sheri, very cool about your greenhouse! 
I look forward to visiting here often and getting to know all of you better!

Good morning and brrrr....it snowed last night. Today I am working on putting order into my chaos. I have been crafting like crazy and have stuff stacked everywhere. Tomorrow the grandkids are coming to visit so I have to batten down the hatches for little hands. I tend to make piles of stuff all around me when I am working on a project and then I have to pause, clear the area so I can think and see what I've got going! That brings me to the subject of energy clearing. What do you all do to clear the energy in a space? I have a sort of ritual - first the clutter layer, then the actual cleaning, then I burn sage and ask for blessings and positive energy. I would love to hear what you do to cleanse the energy in your spaces.
Blessings, Sheri

I do pretty much the same thing you do but add a ritual sweeping which includes corners of the room and around the ceiling where negative energy can accumulate. I also have a couple of alcoves that I give an extra sweep too just in case negative energy gets stuck in them.

Candy, welcome!!! glad you found us again. looking forward to getting to know you.
Barbara, The Good Neighbors is on a lot of the PBS stations. if not on yours, I know you can get them from netflix. we love our netflix, gives us a chance to sample lots of things, very cheaply. as for my Mom, she didn't appreciate "different", lol. the stuff I was doing was really scary to her. so I learned to not talk about it. my daughter Deidre is very sensitive, empathic, and I'm learning to listen to my intuition again.
kelly, wonderful that your daughter is building you a greenhouse. that's amazing.
gotta run, the cat has decided my laptop is a good bed, and won't give up. LOL. blessings Phyllis |
