First off, thanks so much to everyone that left comments. I was reminded today why this is so special 🙂
Isabel was fine this morning, no fever, but by the time I got home this avie the nanny said that she had little white dots in her mouth and didn’t finish her bottles, but ate her food. Her fever was 37.4 and I put some Bonjela in her mouth and gave her some Ponstel and she ate most of her supper and downed her bottle.
So, we’ll see how it goes tonight, but her breath smells like it could be tonsils and I’m not messing with that, so think we’ll be off to the Doc tomorrow. And September was a really good month so far. Sigh.
Then: I think hubby reads my blog as he sorted out a lot of the things I was whining about last week. Or he just got sick of my whining. It’s almost like someone switched the light back on and we are closer than we have been in ages. And I’m loving it. Sweet man. I’m just reminded that you have to go through the hectic stuff together and apart sometimes.
And then lastly: I had the weirdest thing happen today. I was putting petrol in my car in Welgemoed (quite a well-to-do suburb I was passing through) and got out to draw money. As I got back to the car this lady in a very expensive Merc parked next to me winds down her window and says she is a Spanish clairvoyant and palm reader and she “picked something up” about me and wanted to do a reading.
I was quite taken aback so I said ok, how many children do I have. And she said 2, so when I told her I had 3, a singleton and twins she said that explains why she only saw 2 “birds”. She then proceeded to tell me that she would do a reading right there and then for R200 ( her normal price being R300) as she was certain that there was a “message” for me. She didn’t have any business cards with her so I could contact her later either.
Logically it’s probably a crock of shit, but maybe the universe was trying to tell me something today. But, I also believe that the lesson would come through in some other way, so let’s see what happens. I’m not interested in having my fortune told like I would have been a couple of years ago.
How do you feel about it??
Not keen on fortune tellers.
Glad hubbie got some things done for you.
Hope Isabel is ok.
I’m always intrigued when friends go and like to hear what they say but never done it myself. My step mom goes to a woman in Hermanus that is very spot on.
Sounds like Isabel is brewing a bug, but looks likes she’s fighting it pretty well.
Hope Isabelle is ok.
Not too sure about fortune tellers. I don’t know, but I’m sure that a proper fortune teller/clairvoyant wouldn’t just announce herself and her gift like that to somebody that she just met. That sounds a bit dodge…
And at R300 a pop you can’t possibly afford a Mercedes. Unless you are doing a reading every minute or something. Or maybe it’s a borrowed Mercedes…Eish, I really don’t know. Just my 2cents.
Glad that hubby is sorting stuff out for you..
xx
I hope Isabelle gets better soon, and yay for hubby doing what you wanted 🙂 ABout the fortune teller….having been in that industry myself in the past (I do reiki and crystal reflexology) I know that someone worth their salt does not approach clients like that. It is unproffessional. Especially to offer a “discount” if you do it there and then. She was a charlatan I am sure. I have been to many psychics in the past, and there are good and bad ones. The good ones never advertise their services, everything is by word of mouth.
Sounds like a good marketing tool. Clearly she gets lots of customers to pay for the car!
I dont like the idea either…. i dont want to live in the past or the future, just like to live today for what it is ?
Glad to hear Isabelle’s getting better and re the fortune teller — I agree with Adele!
SO Nice that Hubby picked up on your vibe – maybe he’s the one that visited the fortune teller… 😉
Nope, very much against fortune telling, I believe you should not place your trust in the words of some random person, but put your trust in God, all that you need to know, you will find in Him.
I hope it’s not tonsils, but a check up sounds like a good idea.
Good for hubby sorting some stuff out! I know what you mean about someone switching the light back on! We’ve also been going through stuff lately, and it’s so nice to ‘reconnect’ again.
Fortune teller? Sounds like a con artist! My friend loves this kind of thing, and dragged me along once. I was quite amazed by the stuff she knew about me, but as for the future – I think we make our own destiny!
Curiosity always gets the better of me when it comes to clairvoyants or phychics. This woman probably was a con artist, but I am sure there are some out there that is the real deal.
Kissie for Isabel. xx
I have been to an astrologist and must say that it was on the whole a very positive experience! I am not so sure of fortune tellers, reminds me of the gypseys that used to go to the village fairs in England, always a bit dodgy!.
Hope that Isabel is sorted out today, can’t play with rotten tonsils, yucky things they are. xx
