Dear Friends, what an interesting morning it’s been. Come to think of it, what an interesting last two weeks it’s been.

            It all started when I trashed my car out on the ice a week ago Tuesday.  Actually, it all started a few hours before that, when I kept ignoring my intuition’s guidance to go lay down and take a nap.  It’s not like me at all to ignore my intuition.  In fact, I have done some pretty outrageous things in the name of listening to my intuition (like bringing home a wild Amazon parrot who was so untamed that no one in the bird store, and I mean NO ONE, could get him out of the cage without getting their fingers bloodied.)  So it’s not like I don’t listen to my intuition normally, and of course, I understand that the consequences of NOT listening are usually quite unpleasant, which is why ordinarily, I do listen.
