They moved in together. I KNEW that would happen when I left Mr. Joe's House. It hurts like Hades but I keep moving forward.

It just feel crummy to be replaced by a blonde alcoholic frumpy bimbo who won't take responsibility for her drinking. She's got herself a brand new enabler.

I hope they give each other Swine Flu - I don't know who the biggest pig is between the two of them.

Sometimes I hate the dating game but I'll keep playing it until I don't have play it anymore. Meanwhile, I keep working and hiking in the rain.

Yesterday, I went Geocaching. Trackless Depot was along the fence of a Historical 1700 farm. It was easy finding the cache but awesome hiking on the Nature Trail on the farm.

There was clover, buttercups, fetch flowers, plantain and lots of cows. Next week, I am going out to coffee at the Monticello Cafe with a college professor. Life on Life's Terms goes on.

Is Star Guilty of XENOPHOBIA???????????

XENOPHOBIA ....A person unduly fearful or contemptuous of that which is foreign, especially of strangers or foreign
peoples. shamelessly plagiarized c&p from the gOOgleSearch of another member.

I had mentioned in an earlier post that I work with folks and serve customers from a diversity of different cultures and walks of life.

There are Mennonite women with the caps on their heads and the Arab women with scarves covering their hair. Both groups of women are very religious and taught to be submissive to their men. One group creates curiosity and the other group sometimes evokes fear. Yet they are have many similarities.


When I see them, I am just very glad that I am not one of them even when I do get tired of "No Man's Land" and being independent to a fault.

I have to confess that there are some in one group that I find really really annoying. It's the Food Stamp Brigade. I don't begrude the government helping people and preventing them from starving. When I was a single mother, I utilized every resource that I could find to make sure my boys were taken care of including Food Stamps.

What I find annoying is the feeling that we the taxpayers are being taken advantage of. One family had three cartload of stuff. I finally got a flatbed cart, lined it with boxes and started loading the groceries in the boxes.

"Wow! She even puts it in the boxes for us," one customer commented. This is not because I'm a GOOD Cashier, it's because I absolutely REFUSE to put it back in those grocery carts.

Okay so the family needs the food. They purchase more than my entire paycheck and if by chance it exceeds the amount on the EBT - they tell me "Charge IT On the Card." Dang! This is the Discover Card that Sam Issues Special Customers.

Sam won't be issuing Star no card because Sam KNOWS what Star's wages are.

So Sunday, One woman brought two cartloads full of Candy Bars and Cookies, tried to use the EBT card but it was NFG! She tried to CHARGE it on the Card but that was MAXed out too. So we had to put it all back.

It made me question, Is Food Stamps the Stimulus Package for Obesity????

Oh Well, Annoying as it is, I would rather not trade places with the Food Stamp Brigade.

I am healthier because I can't afford junk food and I get plenty of exercise loading it on the flatbeds and I am better off without a Charge Card for the Company Store. Life on Life's Terms.

Old Girlfriends, Clover along the interstate, & Meeting the MOTHER in South Carolina

This weekend I had an invite to spend the weekend in South Carolina with a gentleman that I have been corresponding with for a few years via SFF. He also swims around in the pond.

We met a year ago when I live in Covington, Virginia. So last week, we agreed to meet again. I have my hair all chopped off and I've lost about 22 pounds since he last saw me. I am amazed that he even recognized me but he did. We met at Paniro's Bakery and Java House He gifted me with a lap top which is much better than flowers. Yea Ha!!!!!!

Afterwards we went to Kemper Park and walked on the Monticello Sanders Trail.
The Sunset and Dogwood Blossoms were awesome.

The Following Weekend. It was a romantic drive to South Carolina with my GPS telling us where to go even though he already. Minor detail. He needed to do repairs with the house that he owns in SC. His tenant is a woman who has seven dogs. She sleeps on the floor with those seven dogs. Gadzooks!!!!!

I would rather sleep in a nice comfortable bed with the Virginia Transplanted Georgia Man from South Carolina. Life on life's terms.


We had an invite for dinner at his parent's house. The Tenant with all the dogs warned me about the Mother. I though the Mother was awesome. We talked about cooking, gardening, and spiritual matters. The parents are Christian Missionaries in Peru.

My 12 Step training has taught me to be quick to see where religious folks are right and to focus on the simalarities versus the difference and all will go well and it did
.

We also encountered one of his old girlfriends at the Big Lot Shopping Place who made it obvious that she would still be available for him. Tough Bananas, I've got him in Virginia and she can stay in South Carolina.

I found Purple Clover growing along the interstate in South Carolina. I have it pressed and ready to go into my Blog.

Yesterday was Thomas Jefferson's 266th Birthday so they had a party at Monticello and all those candles on his cake made a great big bonfire.

Those who know me well, know that Thomas Jefferson is my Hero. The man was very progressive for his time and the legacy he left was the Freedom of Religious Freedom. My relationship is between me and my God versus the Dictates of the Government.

It was a grand day. I spent time hiking on the Monticello Trail and ignored the long winded dignitaries at the party and opted to explore the grounds. Anytime I get on the Monticello Grounds without paying the 20 dollar fee, I'm happy.

Breaking Up Cliches & Star's Date with Lieutenant Colonel Capricorn!!!!!

So Mr. Joe and I are Ancient History

So along comes the Cliches................

Star needs to NOT Date for awhile!!!!!
Yeah Sure!
I can hike, dance, go to Monticello and even camp by myself but if I find a buddy willing to go with me! Yea Ha!!!!

Star Needs to learn to LOVE herself.
Just because Mr. Joe doesn't recognize that I am worth loving that doesn't mean that I have to share his opinion.

I don't have to take his issues as my own.

Star needs to find out who Star was before she lost herself via Mr. Joe. Huh??????

and ALSO.......... One date does not equal a relationship or means jumping into a fire. It is just that - one date. Sometimes One date leads to a second date and another date and eventually a relationship - but it all starts with one date.

Cry A River, Build a Bridge, Get Over It and

Go Fishing Again!!!!

So I lured Lieutenant Colonel Capricorn and so this morning we met at McDonald's. We went for a Scenic Drive in Search for the local Hiking Trials. Signs were saying Wildlife Hiking Trails this way but there was nothing to mark the ACTUAL Hiking Trails so we opted for a romantic lunch at Roma's Italian Diner.

Maybe in the next week or so, I will drive to Richmond where he lives and we'll see the State Capitol.

Meanwhile, I'll be doing that Wildlife Hiking Trail on my own this weekend. Monday is Thomas Jefferson's Birthday, and they are having a party for him at Monticello. I'll be there. Woo Hoo!

Last Week, I moved from Mr. Joe's Abode to my Own. It's a shared rental situation which is quite an adjustment because I am used to having my own Kitchen and my own space. Life on Life's Terms.

Right now my computer is down until next week but once it's up - it'll be back to business as usual. The Eleven Enchanted Star Place will be back in business. Yea Ha!!!!!

So tomorrow, I am going out with a retired army Lieutenant Colonel. A Capricorn. Woo Hoo! I do love those Cappie Men!!!!!

Life Goes on and by next month, The Sunflowers will be blooming in Mr. Joe's Yard. Hundreds of them.

Fishing with The Monticello -Three Date Rule !!!!!

When I go fishing in the Pond - I tell them upfront that I have a Three Date/Monticello Rule. It screens out the players real fast.

So Yesterday, I went to Monticello to hike the Monticello/Saunders Trail and also did some hiking on the Secluded Farm Trail too. I started the trail about elevenish. I've pretty much concluded that Blue Ridge Country is my Medicine Wheel. I love it here.

But Dang! When they say there are Plenty Of Fish in that pond, they are not kidding. So yesterday, I lured an Aries who agreed to meet me on the hiking trail at 1 pm.

I had reached the end of the trail when I got the call from the Aries on my cell phone. So I headed back and told him that I would meet him in the middle. He asked if I wore a skirt and the color of my underwear. Dang! A few weeks ago, I wore a skirt to hike the mountain to the West Lawn at Monticello. It was raining. It's not practical at all. This time I opted to wear blue jeans and I did wear a pair of lacey orange sting bikini underwear under them.

I suggested to the ARIES that perhaps HE should be the one to wear a skirt on the hiking trail and advised him of my three date/Monticello Rule.

I'm the Female and I get to make the rules. Heh Heh Heh!!!!!!

I finally met him when I was about a half mile from the Monticello side of the trail. That man is a SLOW walker.
He suggested that he is fond of his wee wee and likes to exercise it quite frequently.

When we reached the Monticello Parking Lot, we were heading for our prospective cars. Once again, I advised him of the three date/Monticello Rule. "Thank you for walking a half Mile to Monticello but you ain't getting three dates. Hasta La Vista! Mr. Aries"

I like Mr. Leo a WHOLE LOT BETTER!!!

So next week, I am doing the Secluded Farm Trails on my own. Life on Life's Terms.

Smothering Kisses on the Saunders-Monticello Trail

When Guys start fishing in the Pond and catch a Star - this is the message they get "Three Dates AND a trip to Monticello" and MAYBE we'll think about the Wild Thing.

So last Sunday, I had a Virtual Date to Monticello. I called Mr. Leo on the cell phone and advised him about the wonderful time we had including smothering kisses that we shared on the hike in the rain up the mountain on the way to Monticello to celebrate the 200th Anniversary 0f Jefferson's return to Monticello after serving eight years as President.

So yesterday, that Virtual Date turned into reality. Mr. Leo agreed to meet me at Sam's Club. I had to work until 3 pm AT Sam's Club but ended up having to work over AGAIN. That's par for the course at that job.

"Is Sam's ALWAYS that busy," Mr. Leo asked. "Yep! I did a $12,000 till and that's slow for a typical day." So we got in his car and headed for Monticello. I plugged in my talking GPS and took out my sheets on Geocaching Caches near the area.

We parked the car in the Parking Lot of Monticello where the Saunders-Trail starts or ends depending on where the hike begins.

The design of the trail was inspired by Thomas Jefferson's description of how he wished to present the spectacular views from Monticello: "Of prospect I have a rich profusion.it may be successively offered, & in different portions through vistas. with the advantage of shifting scenes as you advance on your way."

The Trail winds its way up the side of Carter Mountain and offers an awesome view of forests, ravines and the trail offers panoramas of the Piedmont and Blue Ridge Mountains.

We never did make it to the end of the trail because the window of time did not allow it. The Gates of Monticello close at 5 pm. We did have enough time to share several blazing hot kisses on the trail. So we didn't find the Cache YET!!!! But Star did find the Treasure and he's a Leo. Yea Ha!!!!

He is also a perfect gentleman - so we'll start at the other end of the trail at a later time. We'll find the Cache and end up at Monticello in time to explore the Flower Gardens.

I am asking for Monticello to find out if the man is willing to open his world up and do something that's important to me. When I say Three Dates and I'm not asking for expensive dinner dates nor am I asking that he spends an abundance of money on me. I'm asking for time so the the gentleman can conclude that indeed Star is worth Loving.

Ceromonies for Broken Hearts and Retail Therapy

One of the ways that I deal with the pain that life on life terms sometimes presents is to WRITE ABOUT IT.

So............. I am told. Gee - If you FEEL that way you must not be working a 12 Step good program. Your Sponsor must not be helping you. Maybe you need help with MENTAL Health Issues.

I could say "El Toro Doo Doo" however I will opt to respectfully disagree.

The reason being is that falling in love and losing that love is by nature a painful venture. Grief is part of the process. There are good days and there are bad days but eventually the bad days will get fewer and fewer.

I deal with Grief by walking in the rain, doing ceremonies in the hot tub and planting sunflowers.

I see God through my Native American Ancestry and we do ceremonies for EVERYTHING!!!!!

If I get up every morning, go to work and ring up a till for several thousand dollars with virtually no mistake, I'm doing a damned good job.

My 12 Step Advisor is currently in the hospital and needs to focus on her own healing versus listening to me and my healing process.

Her injury is Physical - Mine is Emotional - Both are Valid.

So today I was at Starbucks making her a "Get Well Dreamcatcher" while waiting for a woman to potentially share a rental with.
The Shared Rental Situation was a "No Go" however she did suggest a site where I might do better with selling my Dreamcatchers.

Michael's was next to Starbucks so I walked over there and indulged in some "Retail Therapy." Fethers, Candles, and beads. It's all business expenses. Yea Ha!!!!!

So now I am on the other site and decided to use the Bay for Charities. That will be my Good Karma for the time when Love Blooms Again!!!!!

The Haunting of Mr. Joe's Hot Tub
Posted:Mar 17, 2009 10:06 am

I am the typical Libra and not comfortable with emotions. I am also cosmically designed for partnership and when I love I don't do it half-measures. When the one that I love tells me that I'm not worth loving, it feels like a knife has been stuck in my Psyche , twisted and literally tearing my soul apart. First the tears are frozen and eventually it reaches the point where I can't stop crying.

When those uncomfortable emotions prevail, I surround myself by water. I walk in the rain and if there's an ocean - that's awesome. Lately, I've spent more time in Mr. Joe's Hot Tub than he ever does. My thought has been - Why don't I cross over into the SpiritWorld and Haunt Mr. Joe's Hot Tub.

It's not the Creator's Will for Star to leave this world so

Cry A River, Build a Bridge, Get Over It

This is the second relationship that has gone Terminus since my divorce in 2002 and it's NOT going to happen AGAIN!!!!!

It's like my last drunk in 1977 - I ain't doing another one.

I am still a reasonably attractive woman and can attract men like a honeysuckle flower attracts hummingbirds. So if the Hummingbirds go to the pond looking for a Star - this is the message they get. Three Dates, a Trip to Monticello and MAYBE - we'll THINK about the wild thing.

I wonder what the Texas Truckdriver would have thought if I told him that AFTER he drove halfway across the country to get me. He would have never even bothered to take the drive. That would have sure saved allot of heartache.

Mr. Joe hates Monticello so we would have NEVER gotten together. Yea Ha!!!!!!

The Texas Truckdriver has an abundance of five minute dates with the Lizards for forty dollars. It cost him an extra three dollars in change in they swallow.

Mr. Joe needs a Magickal Trip to the Clue Factory and that is why I've decided to haunt his Hot Tub.

The Christian Baptism is a symbol of Death and Rebirth so Why not take a lesson from the Christians.

This Morning - I took off my clothes and climbed into Mr. Joe's Hot Tub.

In the Name of the Maiden, Mother, and Crone - I welcome Death and Rebirth as someone worth loving.


Dunk! Dunk!

In the Name of Grandfather Creator and Mother Gaea, I officially haunt Mr. Joe's Hot Tub and send him on that Magickal Trip to the Clue Factory.


I went under the water and held my breath long as I could which wasn't very long before coming back up.

Soon will be Spring Equinox. I am planting Sun Flower Seeds all over Mr. Joe's Yard. By Beltain, Many of those seeds will merge as Sunflowers. Maybe Mr. Joe will figure out the message. Love will Bloom again and his Hot Tub will be haunted evermore evermore.
