Police Athletic League

Category: beware, business | 1 Comment

This is something that ticks me off because police charities are near and dear to my heart, given my husband works for the police, and often donates time to their endeavors.
I’ve had several phone calls in the past week from someone claiming to be from the Police Athletic League. Normally I joke around a […]

Online Yellow Pages

Category: beware, business | 1 Comment

Sometimes I feel guilty about being mean to people over the phone, when they’re only doing their job. This morning I’m having a harder time with that, but I think it’s just because I’m physically exhausted.
When you have a business that’s actually registered with a license bureau you get a lot of people calling […]

Little touches

Category: beware | Leave a Comment

It’s amazing what little things can have a big impact on something, making sure you have a Cat6 can be the difference between internet and no internet, one little tiny ring keeps the pendant on your necklace.
I lost a very meaningful necklace, and it’s been hard to find another one. I used to have […]

Light My Way

Category: beware, recommends, referrals | Leave a Comment

I think sometimes people are surprised that I don’t advocate entirely natural ways of solving problems. I had someone I used to work with who was also a follower of the pagan ways but she went for the entirely natural route, she had cancer and used acupuncture and herbal treatments entirely and they failed, eventually […]

Zombies, oh my!

Category: beware | Leave a Comment

Perhaps it’s time to break out the adult diapers! I just received this article from a friend of mine which indicates there’s a chance that a Zombie Apocalypse could actually happen.
I’m not sure it’s quite a def-com 3 threat yet, but it was interesting to see that one of the most popular myths especially […]

Nigerian Scammers Switch to IM

Category: beware, business | Leave a Comment

Maybe it’s just the fact that I’m not on IM so much any more and when I am I only have the public handles for tarot reading and that’s it, so perhaps I’m delayed in getting spammed by this sort of information and others are aware already, but I thought I would share.
I recieved […]

Don’t See Things Coming

Category: beware, psychic | Leave a Comment

It frustrates me a bit when there are things which happen and I don’t see them, or I do see them but I figure it’s okay and that I’ll be on alert and they happen anyway.
What I’m talking about is my son’s accident. Earlier that day it had come to me how I had been […]

Telemarketers

Category: beware, business | Leave a Comment

I found a great site 800 notes which allows you to look up numbers which call you. I’ve had several which seem like they’ll be telemarketers because they have a number and a “Unknown” name, and they say, “Hello?” “I don’t know, I don’t hear anything.” I thought that was a one-off until I looked […]

It figures…

Category: availability, beware, recommends | Leave a Comment

…the first time since we moved that I get a call that might actually be a client, we apparently can’t hear each other (or it was another crank call).
On the other hand they also sounded a lot like the people from the “alternate yellow pages” who keep calling and trying to find out if I […]

Hypnosis (What’s It’s Not) Part Two

Category: about me, beware, hypnotherapy | 1 Comment

I was actually gratified to have a conversation with someone the other day who agreed with me on my takes about online hypnosis and it’s abject ‘not usefulness’.
When a hypnosis session is being conducted it works by dealing directly with the subconscioius mind. That portion of your brain is the on which takes on […]
