The case of the disappearing blog entry
I was so sure that I had hit "publish post" after my little update. I have not been living divinely...my cards have divinely disappeared (I think they might be under the bed in that one spot that I just cannot reach, but I cannot see, and I haven't figured out how to get under there yet...) Barbara has actually developed an iPhone app, and I should just download that instead in the meantime. But in my absence from this blog, I have indeed been keeping myself occupied, and have been tracking my creative efforts at www.sarahprocrastinating.blogspot.com if you want to see what's been going on :)

long time no see
I haven't forgotten this blog! I have been drawing cards, and trying to get in touch with my divine side. Honestly I feel like I slept walked (is that the proper past tense of sleep walk??) through the past week or so... I don't know where the time has gone. I can't say that I've done anything stellar, just feeling that the days have gotten away from me.
Today was divine patience. I'm learning that the name of the card isn't necessarily what you would think it is by the traditional definition of the word. On mornings when I've thought that the day would be especially trying, I've wondered if I would get divine patience, reminding me of a virtue that sometimes I possess, sometimes I don't, depending on the situation. Divine patience goes beyond taking a deep breath and counting to 10. Divine patience means waiting for, and accepting the fact that the universe has it's own timing, and doesn't need to be rushed or pushed.
This has been a good card for me. I had a job interview last week, which seemed to have gone well. I heard from the placement agency that had positive feedback, but one of the people who makes the hiring decisions has been out of town on business this week, and so there probably won't be an answer until Monday. This has been a reminder that the world unfolds at it's own pace, not mine.

Sometimes God just laughs...
Today was divine consciousness- trying to feel the connection between me and the universe. Trying to listen to what the universe had to tell me, trying to tell the universe what I needed.
While working out at the gym, I conversed with the universe about needing strength to keep going on (I'm working out with an intensity/frequency that is new to me). While waiting to go into my interview with the placement agency, the request was for clear thoughts and good communication. On the drive home, good opportunities and a good match was on tap.
Me and the universe one on one allowed for divine consciousness. Apparently, conversations with real people is too much for me (not the interview, that went well).
My sister is getting married in April. I am one of the bridesmaids.
My sister has looked at a few bridesmaid dresses, and has a clear favourite. Our difference is that her number one choice is my last choice. If she asks that we wear that one, I will, and will have a smile on my face. When my opinion was asked for, and it was given, I did say that it wasn't my favourite.
When we spoke today, we were son entrenched in our own corners that we weren't listening to, or hearing each other. It took my other sister, on different phone calls to make me see that.
I wasn't open to divine consciousness when I needed to be.

Decisions, decisions
Today was about being divine decision. I'm trying to put this into practice. I was so out of it today, I saw my cards this evening and thought "crap, I forgot to draw a card this morning". Only to really, really think about it, and finally look at the top card to say "yep, I drew that this morning". Most of my decisions were about getting up, getting dressed, cleaning out the cat litters and finally taking the garbage out for garbage day.
I think (hope?)that divine decision will play a bigger role later this week. I have an interview tomorrow with a placement service, and they have a specific position in mind. It's not customer service, which is the essentially my number one priority. I am customer serviced out. The customer service well has run dry. And if anyone out there is in customer service...isn't it frustrating when you call/go somewhere and need customer service, and it seems that the customer service you get is always of a quality that you are pretty sure you would get fired if you were the one delivering that attitude. And that further drains the well, at least in my case. I don't want to just take the first job for the sake of taking a job. And yes, I'm getting ahead of myself here, as I haven't even had an interview yet. But I am starting to go stir crazy at home, and some routine and human contact would not be unwelcome. Hopefully, the stars are aligning, and this will be a good thing. Time will tell.

Lazy day in Bramptontown
Kicking this cold...didn't do much today. But did have a lot of time to think....
I did draw my card this morning. Divine Committment. I think that it is a good card to draw as the end of the week draws nigh...a gentle reminder of what is going on right now, or what needs to happen. A little bit of a throw back to my flirtation with Divine Witness a few months back :)
A little bit of acceptance...I decided that as I was not on anyone's clock today I would just let this cold run its course. Just liquids and rest. No medical aides...let this just be as it is.
A little bit of focus...need to find a job, so today made strides in that field. Something has come on the radar which might be a good step forward.
A little bit of divine love...resting when I needed to, eating healthy, drinking fluids....
So today was an iceberg day...didn't look like all tha much on the surface, but lots going on hidden from view.

Love and Acceptance
Last night was divine "tuck myself into bed early to see if I can beat this cold". Fat lot of good it did me - I was up until after 2 a.m. It's not a bad cold, just an annoying cough, and kinda achy. Just irritating more than anything. I think Andy brings me these germs home from the hospitals he visits for work. Nice when your husband brings you little gifts for no reason :(
Yesterday was divine love, today divine acceptance. I'm not sure if this is how it supposed to work or not, but I find that I am applying these cards of diviness inwards. I'm looking to connect them internally, and not with the big external universe. I think I need to fix my relationship with myself before I can extend this into the world around me. I've started that process, but got distracted and let it slide. Then again, it could be that right now my interaction with others is limited and I don't have many sources to turn these outwards.
Either way - I think it works.
