Memories: 16 July 2025

16 July 2023

I slept from about 9 pm last night until 7 am. Utterly exhausted. I had planned on going dancing again last night but my body had other plans.

It’s a beautiful morning. I feel well rested and resonant. A high vibration in my ears I feel like taking Beauregard to a beach somewhere. But the air is crisp and my warm bed with the electric blanket is so comforting and seductive . I haven’t taken Bobo anywhere in weeks or even months except for our usual walk around the block. I feel a tad isolated.

I did attend Crystal’s show “Beginning” by David Eldridge on Wednesday evening. Jarrod and I had pizza at Arrivederci’s beforehand. It was delicious. The show was excellent.

Then my other outing was going dancing on Friday night. Daniel was very affectionate. He hugged me a couple of times. I hugged him back but called him “Bub” to remind him of our age difference I suppose.

I should stop doing that…sabotaging the few rare birds that actually seem to adore me. Who consistently approach me, tell me they love me and are affectionate without sexual agendas. But I fear entrapment into yet another heart breaking grinding down illusory false attachment.

I am very happy with my newly installed blind. It kept the room much darker and I am pleased with my efforts: cutting it to size and the schamozzle of screwing in the hardware (one screw bent completely grrr). I have sore shoulders and joints from forcing the issue. C’est la vie!

11:11 am riding the wave of new potentialities and celebrating my bliss!

Don’t you dare ever get sick or vulnerable in Australia, mate. If they can’t fuck you, they treat you like an animal and leave you for dead. If you have the chutzpah to say no to abusive husbands/lovers/doctors and big Daddy the State, they leave you to recover on your own post surgery and if you are stupid like me, you keep choosing life and they keep grinding you down.

Well to some (yes I received an apology, thank you!) that might seem like a leap but I call it an inability of humanity to stand up for the poor, marginalised and disenfranchised and is in actual fact a FUCKING DISGRACE!!!!

I stepped up to the mark for so many of my homegrown abusers in their time of need. Unworthy contemptible paedophile scum. All of them. But when it is my turn to face serious illness...no one except Lyn and Jarrod (who is moving house!) even bothered to check on me in real life.

This nation is evil at its core. I will watch it burn with smug satisfaction.

I had a lovely day and evening with Jarrod and Crystal. Jarrod fixed my washing machine (replaced the seal!) Thank you Jarrod x. Then the three of us went to IKEA and after that we had dinner at Feast.

I had a lovely afternoon and evening with Jenny on Sunday also.

Life is good. Time to sleep now. Laila Tov Kulam! :-)

My goldfish are so happy. I went out in the rain to feed them and am happy with their clean filters. Everything is perfect and I love them so much.

…

I had a fantastic night last night. I danced with my gorgeous friends. I reached new peaks of exhaustion then pushed myself through. I went home by 3 am as I thought I might not be able to keep moving any longer.

The undeadable zombie creature kept reviving herself from the depths of the netherworld. It was kind of amazing. I love it when I blow my own mind.

I came home and unwound by watching Netflix for a while then went to bed. I cranked the electric blanket for my aching seizing joints. I didn't even bother removing my makeup. I slept really well.

Now only 4 hours later I am awake. But I feel calm and warm and content.

…

…

I do. But I make myself tea instead :-)

16 July 2015

7.10 am Bitterly cold morning. Thank the Lord for electric blankets. Cold as Brass Monkeys out there. I think I will rest today.

…

I remember about 15 or so years ago a psychic reader telling me that I was years ahead of my time but that in the second half of my life I would notice the rest of the world catching up and actually comprehending what I have experienced.

I laughed it off as the usual Psycho-babble poppycock I used to love to partake of (just in case I found a true psychic!)

That woman's insight has indeed come to pass. To think that I could be writing on Social media on Facebook and have met so many people who understand me now, when for years I was told I was crazy.

To have discovered other spiritually-minded and enlightened people who believe as I do that we can actually change the world for the better, for ourselves, our children, generations to come, for our planet, for our ecology.

We each have our own unique struggle which makes us experts in our field. For me, it is speaking out about child abuse, and Domestic Violence to advocate for a safer saner world than what too many of us have experienced. To implement real and lasting changes or at the very least to demand them.

To never back down or shy away from those who would silence or shame us for standing up for the rights of our children, and our future.

Listening to the happy sounds in Quadrophonics of 4 cats eating wet food. They haven't had it for a while and they are positively gormandising in their delights. Messy eaters though, but oh so happy!

I had a happy day today, and my night is made even more happier by mysteriously finding my missing Diamond Nose Ring behind the loo. I also managed after much frustration and fiddling and swearing and sweating and general panic attack, to program the new universal tv remote.

I now have a working tv remote, so I can now watch tv without constant interruptions and the irritation of having to get up and try to get the buttons on the tv to cooperate with what I wanted. This remote thingy has been the bane of my existence for 2 months.

So a little tiny technology has brightened my existence immensely. (Let's hope I don't lose this one. Never did find the other remote. LOL)

I'm getting my hair done today. So looking forward to looking fresh even if it is a schlep on the train.

I had a lovely day today. I went to shul with Gail, got given an Aliyah, and then went home for a nap, then Gail and Christina picked me up and took me to see Harry Potter part 2. We all thoroughly enjoyed the movie. Truly wonderful.

16 July 2010

The Cult of the The Tanya aka Crazy Cat Woman, Official Schnorrer and PHDL (Fiddle) PHD in Life. Fiddler on the Roof with the Cat on the Hot Tin Roof, schmendricking for some gelt and nosherei. OY!

…

Another late night for me, currently 12.16 am, Friday morning. Oy...sleep time I guess. See you all lunchtime tomorrow. (Why pretend I have a normal schedule anymore?) My secret is out LOL

I have decided that I am happiest snuggled up in bed with my electric blanket, my dog and cats cozying up. No wonder I have trouble getting up and getting a life! I enjoyed today with Jarrod looking at the Antique Shop at Woolloongabba this afternoon.
