a time of change

A time of change..I've noticed this at intervals, everything goes along trot trot, nutil sudenly you get massive upheaval. It used to bother me but now I rol with it. Everytime it happens I notice it everywhere, real life, online, family, friends...from huge to mnor changes, like a charge went off in the world and the reprecussions spead outwards in shock waves.
But here's the funny thing, it always brings a better situation in its wake. Sometimes not so obvious when it's happening, it could be pretty horrible at the time, but it is always for the best in the end.
So now I just open the popcorn and watch, as long as the really important things stay intact - like my lovely man - then I'll accept the changes!!

RAIN!

Galway is inundated, and Cork is drowning.
This has been a bitch of a week. still stunned about the crash. Four girls all from small communities and a fifth in hospital - spare a thought especially for Baile na hAbhain.

Have been re-reading some Archaeology and Burial stuff, really looking forward to the talk in December.
Other than that, have miserable drive home to galway tomorrow and had rotten drive down here today.
Thank heavens my lovely boy came too, he drove most of the way and when we got here only the garden was flooded not the house!

OK I am off now, have to help him finish with the windows etc, hopefully house will survive the next week lol

Women, eh!

I do despair sometimes.
I would love to think the days of bitchy women - and women who are proud not to get on with other women - would be behind us as a gender but it's a pipe dream.
Any woman who has no understanding of women's rights history should be ashamed; not just because it's a denial of the women who earned our rights for us but because the issues they fought on affect millions of women around the world today. How can you hope to understand the Stolkholm Sydrome of women who impose the Burka on other women if you don't understand the same actions 100 years ago from Conservative wives and mothers against suffragettes?
Everything is linked, Everything has a relationship. Remembering that principle when looking at history is vital; remembering it as a political person in a modern world even more so.

BUSY dammit

well my little hiatus has passed, our new guy is in place and kicking arse so we're being very virtuous and hardworking, until his enthusiasm wanes. One of the benefits of being a civilian is that the new guy on the team always treats you really nicely. That wears off too but until then they're not about to get themselves bollocked for piddling off the consultant :)
Actually though I like him, he seems really straightforward and very level headed and he's already reorganised a few things that I've always felt were badly managed, so it's so far so good.

I've enjoyed catching up a bit online, and so I think I'll make more of an effort now. I am thinking about a few things for instance that I fall betwen two stools as a pagan - I am not interested in the extremely esoteric, convuluted theories that some groups build on the sagas and texts nor do I put much credence in Personal Gnosis. I am somewhere in the middle, something i want to explore a bit further.

And it's biblical rain here in Galway!

Unforeseen Circumstances...


Just like the old joke - thanks to someone for posting this elsewhere

Medium in Court on Fraud Charges

I really should revive my Great Psychic Adventure. I got bored when literally every single so called psychic online and off melted away the minute I asked for actual proof of their claims. I got awfully sick of psychics claiming to have helped the police and then saying they couldn't give details for legal reasons or some such bull. I know for a fact that's rubbish and when I point it out suddenly they disappear. I've contact two police forces about two different claims and been told that not only were they lying about helping the police but in one case she was a well known crank who had been successfully prosecuted for making hoax calls. So as you can imagine I got pretty tired of it all.

Still, at times it was great fun, indeed hilarious....I may have to revisit...

I love when people are brave...

...I really do. There's so much underhand, back biting meanness around it's refreshing to see someone be brave. It's good for the soul :)

Dossing

Yep, it's another one of those days :) I am officially allowed to doss again, while we await the arrival of the new team leader. Well I say doss, I have a few things to do which i fly through, and then I can doss!
I have to say I really haven't had a few days like this in months and months - I've caught up online with friends, and sites and all kinds of projects and uplouded photos and so on - it's been brill. It won't last, the new boy will be here tomorrow or monday but yay til then.Plus - The boys have gone out for a long lunch - I went yesterday but today I decided to come back, and sort out a couple of things that needed to be done for the weekend shift and the big boss called me in, said he was glad to catch me on my own and told me they were delighted with my work, and lots of nice things.
I'm in very good form :)
I'll be out of here early, and my lovely boy is taking me out to dinner because he is wonderful.
YAY!

Interesting...


I do love this time of year! Is it just me or does anyone else find that odd things just happen at this time of year? Coming into samhain if there's an old friend around, they get in touch; an ex will ring ; someone will call my name on the street and it turns out to be a long lost schoolpal. Or things end, or start? there always seems to be more movement around now. I may post this on ITW and ask if anyone else feels the same!
I love it though, it is as if either unfinished business or new business has to be resolved or kickstarted before the end of this month - I go around with a sense that something is about to happen, or as if anything could happen.
I've had three "odd" events today - two just weird coincidence thingies and one gob smacking OMG moment when someone I never thought I'd hear from again got in touch and emailed me.
Can't wait to see what happens next :)
