Covid Surcharge - or tax... ?  Phhhhhhbt!
If I visit a business & they charge me a 'covid surcharge' or tax I will turn around & leave without my purchase.   Are you kidding me?  
Business owners better think twice.   Did I create this pandemic?
Am I responsible for making others sick or closing your business??      HELL NO.
I have been shopping (carefully with a mask) trying to support my community - take out from several places so everyone gets a bit..  yes WE are ALL in this together but if you think you are going to make me pay for 'it',  guess again.
To chage people extra because YOU are a business owner, lets face it therefore you must be  better off than MOST... if you own your own business..  am I wrong?  
WHY punish your CUSTOMERS who ARE ALSO infact, struggling.  
Nope. Don't do it!
Not only that.. actions will remember, long after covid is complete.

Will covid ever be complete? I WAS so proud of Canada until I saw photos for all the selfish
that decided it was a great day to hang out at a park in record numbers. I didn't see anyone over 50 in the photos.. perhaps the older are wiser.  Probably just more afraid of dying.

Covid-19 $$$ - have you applied? It appears there is money for all. I did not apply, I am grateful to God for all I have and know others need it more than I do.  I asked a friend tho if she's applied, I KNOW she needs the help as she is in a wheel chair. NO- the disabled are not being helped in covid times. NOT only that but she IS in a wheelchair (MUST be) and NOW, wheel trans says she can't bring anyone to help her get groceries!!!   What a fucking joke - she is wearing a mask, has to ride an elevator, can't get around or stay away from others 6 feet, like most of us.  YET, look at all those COVID IDIOTS in the park.  I have NO doubts many applied - got money and DON'T NEED IT.  She WHO NEEDS the help cant get fucking help!?  already living below the poverty line.  Now that YOU have read this  please mention it to someone.. it needs attention - OR we are NOT 'in this all together.' 
 
​Finally, a friend I've know about 2 decades on social media only  & become snail mail pals too, has had a battle with cancer like no other and she is a fucking warrior. Over the years I've watched this woman run marathons, LOVE her hubby -it made me jealous at times, work hard, support others who had cancer before she did, made gifts for many people including me, christmas ornaments.. she is so thought & kind a couple of years ago we decided to meet- I invited them to visit...    Recently, she did not go to the hospital due to cover fears  and now her cancer has reappeared -  I can't even.   :(
She's not doing well... so for all you - all over the world who want to hang out in a park  because your bored and don't give a fuck for others safety - YOU are slapping my friend who IS fighting for her life in the face and I am not happy about it.  FUCK COVID!!!  
And all of you who are behaving selfishly in these times.. do you understand how karma works?

Mushrooms - Psilocybin are also called: The Golden teachers..  I get it.
What they teach us is a valuable lesson worth more than gold.. they ease suffering.
If you allow them. I only had the one negative experience and I no longer consider it negative.  This week my body told me to microdose... I listened.
During this Covid my psorisis has flared, it's my for sure sign even tho I don't 'think' I'm overly stressed - I'm stressed. It would be unnatural right now if anyone said they've felt no stress the past few months. 

What do Psilocybin teach me?
Every single time: I AM LOVED. I AM enough. Be good to me.
I also FEEL' closest to God - just like when you are at peace in the garden or resting under a tree surrounded by nature and life and love.  Black fly love us- hahaha
Not a human, not books, not PILLS, not food..  a tiny litle mushroom has helped.
Go figure! Who knew!?   God.

God and many others knew - Scientists KNEW in the 50' & 60's. Thank GOD that psilocybin mushrooms are being seen AGAIN for what they are - healing medicine.
I am exceedingly grateful to & for them - nothing has ever helped as much as they have. Believe me or don't I don't care -it's your choice all I can do is share my experiences and you can ponder yourself as to what to do. I can't make you, nor do I want to- It's NO careless buzz'.   When the student is ready the teacher will appear.  
Golden Teacher - thank you.
I am loved.  
They have ALSO allowed me to forgive and constantly encourage: BE here now.

Yesterday was marvelous! We explored our backyard! Holy- I'm so happy to be here. hee hee.  We found our first mushroom of the season, new birds & my new obsession - Mossballs. haha I don't know what Im making but I LOVE moss balls- I just wanna squish them.. Tiny eco systems. I've never been more isolated and more happy in my life...  with the exception of missing my son.
Soon, soon It will be over- or at least nice enough we can have an outdoor visit & picnic!
Honestly, I really don't think we'll see anthing close to Normal again - until 2023.  
I feel from what I've read, it will come back in the fall and am being cautious this summer. 
I hope you do too!

Have you watched Midnight Gospel on Netflix- WOW.  
Best animated show on television NOW.  Episode 8, had me in tears - you were warned.
Netflix also has a movie/doc. about psilocybin  with a bunch of comedians...
​ 'Have a nice trip' check it out.
I'm pleased they did not make it a "joke".

It's rainging cats & dogs..  kinda.  It's rainging and I'm painting cats & dogs anyhow.
Kittle litter discoveries. I've seen photos of psilocybin grown in jars and one reminde me of catlitter.  Some psilocybin grow out of cowshit - this I know.. so.

I met a lovely young lady at my new dentist office - which I'm pleased with here in Minden.
We pilled out our phones and shared our children photos (furry children).. She sent me some photos so I decided to paint them - they looked like such characters- I could tell. 
Below is the painting.  Dogs can be tuff critics - hee hee - these two were pleased.

Monkey business time, you can see my newest money - time-lapse on my Instagram account.  Today the same thing- then a portrait. It's been challenging teaching my carpenter Norm  the meaning of 6 fucking feet... he seems to finally be grasping the situation. 
Relationships will be made & broken during isolation I read this week - lol - no shit.

Wash your hands. Keep creative.

It's a mixed emotions day.. 

Excited! Last night we woke - through closed windows - to the sounds of wolves howling!  In my backyard for at least 5 minutes.. it was unbelievably cool.  Ginger was glued and shook for about 30mins after.. poor thing. I assured her she is safe inside, snuggled with mom.  It did have me realize exactly how 'in the wild we are... I wonder if I would have seen them if I got up - next time.  I never let the little dogs out alone - they are alwasy with their big sister & I don't let the dogs wander. AS soon as the ground thaws we build a completely contained kennel' with a dog door into the house.   It will be good for them to be able to go out & pee at all times- although I can't complain, my girls are well trained and only go on pee pads when in the house. In the bathroom  (where we all go)  ;) 

Disappointed & upset...  I had art in my porch, I have a lot of art in my porch...  
Do you remember the sign I painted shortly after moving in - that said "Leave all shit outside... Dog shit, bear shit and bullshit... well, it's gone.  
Somone decided to own it, which mean someone took it from me- I DID NOT 'GIVE' it to anyone.   Thief.   It's that simple.  Who does that?
When invited to someones home & you take stuff that DOES NOT belong to you - you are a thief.  Recently, I  had company & after they left I noticed a 'few' small items gone - like books etc - perhaps my sign too..  I asked  for the items to be returned but have had no reply - and people wonder why YOU NEVER invite them back  - wonder no more.  
What message do you send to the universe today?  
I never steal.  I don't lie.
I'd rather tell someone the truth & have them 'not like me' than to lie and disrespect myself & them.  If I had to steal it- 'unless it's food and I am starving' - (by the grace of God this has never been the case) -  I don't deserve it.
It won't happen again, Norm installed a camera that lets us know  the second anyone even enters our porch.. sucks we had to do it -  it sucks more people take what does NOT belong to them. I hope the thief enjoys my art - and never forgets how they got it...  the universe won't.  There are people I will never have visit here - they know why.

Mental health & mushrooms. Psilocybin - well even Dr. Oz is NOW telling of the wonderful effects of psilocybin mushrooms. Google if you don't believe me.             Thank God.  
Gods medicine once again will be what heals the planet - not mans medicine.
Mushrooms have helped me where no one else was able to break through. 
Mushrooms taught me to LOVE myself.  Mushrooms taught me to LIKE myelf.  
I mentioned the other day my childhood, being told I was not wanted, as long as I can remember.  I share this' to educate as I know - I am NOT alone... too many feel the same & don't quite understand why.

I was brainwashed to think I was unlovable. Being told this by a parent in particular is confusing to a child (and abusive)... being told often as I was, I had it literally beat into me at times...  we start to believe it. It had caused problems my entire life of not trusting the fact that 'anyone could love me'.  I've even struggled with the notion some days - my son doesn't love me.  He does.  
It was mushrooms that taught me the opposite.  Believe it or don't.
I'm not getting anything from sharing- some might still (those uneducated) think - shes a stoner on mushrooms- think what you want.  I thank GOD for the first time in 56 years I KNOW - it was never me that was the problem.   I was a gift from God.
I am a gift from God.
Thanks to mushrooms today I'll paint, not be depresed - instead I will  paint because I understand - through our creations we extend our love.

I made this mushroom painting to dangle in the sunlight it also has a ball that catches light hanging from it.;) on the other side is a matching eye'.  It's painted with iridescent paint -so it's really pretty in the sunshine.
It's titled - 'It's just an illusion.'  It is for sale $60. + shipping,  if interested - let me know.
Have an inspired day!!

Can you imagine what the first stoned apes thought - or humans for that matter...
they thought enough to probably try "it" again, especially 'If it was a plesant experence. 
We are not such complicated apes.  If it feels good, we do it. Repeat. 
What is hard to understand about that?   Letting any substance control or perhaps destroy ones life is the difficult part to understand.  Seeing as I've had a few substances control my life in the past I try not to judge.  Well, yes I do - I guess, I have issues with alcoholics & therefore little tolerance.  When I read that the Science Centre in Toronto is holding an informative 'event' on the mind/brain and psychedelics in a constructive context - psilocybin and LSD - WOW! I am hopeful for the overall furture of humanity - if we can get 'humanity to get past it's biggest block... humanity.   lol  

We had more snow lots... about 30 cm by the time it was complete. Today, I walked outside in 0 degree weather surrounded by snowbanks in a sweater - sweating from the heat of the sun, what a glorious day - provided you don't think about the corona virus.
I dont get people going to work 'sick' right now, it's not good for business with the global (not just mine) mindset.  I do understand the stresss & not being able 'to afford' taking time off work too.  I am grateful I am not in that situation. 'Pandemic is soon a word we will hear.
The past few days my twitch has been overpowering, throwing me off balance - it's the dramatic weather, I think.. as my body screams nap - my mind says paint... a happy medium - small paintings for a few days. The other day I stopped what I was doing (some simple task) & started crying - I realized it was exhaustion - not depression had me 'lose it' for a few moments anyway.  The constant zapping.. makes  a day difficult, some more so than others.  
Still, (after I nap) I choose to celebrate each day God provides.  
A good cry helps clean the soul & tear ducts - get it out.
​Male & female. If it feels good- do it...  cry.

I purchased small wooden panels so I think a few small monkeys are waiting to be discovered.  Painting this chimp was disscovering him in the jungle..  as he started to peer thru the darkness.
​
What is it?...
 The light shining thru... the knowlege that awakens you.

My next kitty will be orange.  
We have to get a kitten as to train her to like bird (like a brother - not a snack).  

We had a cat die not long ago.. she was sick for a while & it makes me sad to think of her,  with the move and all - I did not let it effect me like it usually does - I couln't.
We still have 'Fluffy' - very old cat, who remained with Norm during the transition, Fluffy was our outdoor cat that alwasy came home at night. Up here, I'm worried because she is so old that she  will  go out into the forest & not come back.  
These things, I finally understand are all part of life.. part of the journey.
Cats go missing...   Humans too.     

I'm getting a kitten & it will be able to go out the dog door into the enclosed area behing the house - to explore, the dogs can do their business. The plans have been drawn! Oh my, the plans.. Norms 'to do' list is longer than the driveway, I laugh.. everytime I tell someone.  Norm has already been offered a job - or two.  
Norm has a new boss & he knows it. Me.
This house needs a new floor - this 'parkay' has seen it's day!  
Then, he has a shop to build...  & a studio.

I'm painting! To fill my studio!  I have a new quote I found  & have printed it for our daily reminder:                                Work like God.  
                                               No task too humble.
                                              No scheme too grand.       ~R. Doughty

Amen! 

This orange kitty was imagined.  I have at least 6 that people have sent me  kitty photos via Instagram.  I plan on painting a few of them...
I'm going to send out a love calling into the universe for our new kitty to enter our home- An orange one that won't eat bird.  Time to bring in some wood- it's getting COLD tonight.
Norm & I will sauna just so we can run into the house at these temperatures and have our own private Polar bear run.  hee hee hee

Creativity inspires - more creativity.  I prefer this mask to the first, less mushroms yet - visually more appealing. To me.

Another painting is waiting to be started.  The canvas told me what to paint when I glanced at it.
​Talk about a no brainer. 

Read. Research - anything and it will inspire more ideas. Education is the key to everything.  The more I know the more I want to know.

Next.. a portrait.

Everything is a lesson.
What did you learn in 2019?  Much.
What will you learn in 2020?  More.

Expect Miracles!  Always.

What's the plan this New Years Eve?
Bingo on the radio with Canoe @ 6.
I'll ponder on my puzzel,  dinner,  maybe a movie  (something funny or positive)
 before  bed = probably before midnight.
WoooHoo! 
​Sounds seriously awesome to us.
We are excited.

Happy new Year.  Let that shit go!
2020 is going to be... enlightening.
