Holiday Catch Up Time!

(Just an FYI - I've been trying to get this to post since Sat. late morning)

Happy New Year! Sure - I'm a few days late - but I mean it just the same:) I hope that 2009 brings all of you what you need.

I honestly have no idea where to start - even at the beginning doesn't sound right. Silly huh? So here's a quick run down....

These past two weeks have been so busy - so silly busy - it's unreal. First, as you know, my son is home from school. His dad - being the "whatever" that he is, has decided to be MIA. So with the exception of Christmas Eve - he hasn't stopped by to get his son when he was supposed to - nor has he called him. The SOB is alive and well. He's just being - well...him. Needless to say, my little guy has been very disappointed, which in turn makes my life more difficult. The plans I had for myself all had to be canceled. Which of course is disappointing - but my disappointment doesn't come close to my son's - so I try to keep things in perspective. I've also been lying and making up excuses to my son - so that he won't think his dad has forgotten about him - as he did. That man is going to regret being such an ass when his son lives 2000 miles away instead of 5 min. Yeah - that's what I said - 5 min. Grrrrr.....Of course he finally did email me after I sent the latest asking if he was stopping by - seems that he's been "sick" and can't see his kid this weekend. Yeah - whatever.

So my son has made things very interesting - and stressful - here at the Allie ranch. He and Brodie (the black lab) fight like they are little girls. The kid yells at the dog - the dog barks back at the kid and it goes on and on. I had to banish Brodie to the back room and my son to his room just for some peace and quiet. Overall - the last two weeks have been fine with my son - he's 8 - he acts like an 8 year old. The longer he doesn't see his dad, the more rambunctious he gets.

Iris has been here - as busy as can be. That woman. She has promised me that she's not about to leave my side again. I don't know if I should be happy or scared. She did say though that she's in the background - Andrew is still "in charge" at this point in time. Andrew was talking to me yesterday and my grandmother came up and kissed him. I'm like - not in front of the children!

Now that's it's Jan 3rd, only 18 days till LOST! God I can't stand it -- I have major Sawyer withdraw.

But Iris gave me an idea in the shower - it's about another podcast called Waking Up Your Orgasm: http://wakeupyourorgasm.com/ the site is FAR from complete. My hope is to have the podcast up and running by next Friday (and Friday's from that point on) the 9th. It'll be in the same simple format as Ask Allie - with Q & A sex questions, toy reviews, aphrodisiacs and so forth. Well, I don't know what the "so forth" is yet. Sexual positions and sexual energy I deal with in the OBE newsletter (when I have time to write it). Any ideas? I only want to keep it 30 min or less. I'm also going to do the listener appreciation by giving discounts on the OBE web site.

Dreams - man have they been wild. Ever since I Feng Shui my office (and found about a dozen or so tiny Herkimer Diamonds that I placed on my Faden Quartz next to my bed) they have really been eventful. Bill has been in many of the ones I remember. Two of the visits I've had to entered into his dreams as I remember just standing back watching him pour over books. He's at a round table (both times)...

Okay - I have to interrupt my story for just a moment -- this still has to do with dreams, but....

Earlier last week (can't remember which night) - I had a dream where I was sitting down on a couch, that was a step lower than the room it was in - a sunken couch. An African American man (in his lower 30's I guessed) walked in and it was just as two old friends who haven't seen each other in a while. We hugged, gave each other kisses on the cheek and sat back down on the couch. I was leaning on him, his arms wrapped around me - and he started to tell me how he's been able to write - that he's releasing a new cd. I told him that it was great, I was excited for him (he seemed really pleased with himself) - kissed him a few more times on the cheek. Then I woke up.

Now I had no idea who this person was - never saw him before in my waking life (had no idea if he was alive or not) - had no idea why I would meet up with him - but there has to be some sort of past life/karmic connection. I thought about it after I woke up - couldn't figure it out, so I filed it away. So today I'm thumbing through some online sites - just looking around - and there he was. I was floored. I must of sat there for 10 min just saying nothing. I did find a page for him on MySpace - I sent him a friend request - no idea if he'll say yes. But what the hell - right? Still no clue on the "why" of the dream visit. I'm sure some day I'll figure it out.

Now back to the other dreams and Bill -- so he was at a round table. Books all over the place - most of them open - he had bookmarks in several places in each book. He had a notepad - a journal - where he was writing everything down. I walked up to him and asked how it was going. He's all excited saying he found the portal to Atlantis - but he can't figure out how to get to the portal. Seems that you have to take tunnels and what have you in order to get there - and he can't figure out where the tunnels originate. I asked - isn't it in the bottom of a Mayan temple in Mexico? He stops and stares at me for a spilt second then says - I don't know, they haven't discovered the room yet and when they do, it'll look like an ordinary room. But this (and he points to the triangle inside of a circle) will be in that room. I looked at him again and said - Mexico, it's in Mexico. He replied - but Atlantis's portal isn't in Mexico. I said I know - it's in Belize. But we get to Belize through the Yucatan Peninsula. He stared - it seemed like forever. Then it looked like a light bulb went off because he yelled - now it makes sense and grabbed a book. I woke up. We went through this same scenario twice - and I woke up each time. So I have no clue what he showed me.

Another dream visit we were at my mom's house. My sister's were there along with my brother-in-law, nieces, my son and my mother. Bill was in the basement with my son - I was upstairs watching a large category 3 tornado come towards us. I kept yelling for everyone to stay in the basement - the tornado would spilt off into three smaller tornados, and then regroup into one. The color of the tornado was brown - but when they split apart, 2 of them were gray. I knew my son was safe because Bill had him. My brother in law wasn't listening to me and would not get down stairs. When it got close - he and I ran down. In the basement - I could hear my dog Brodie upstairs. Before I could run up to get him, I woke up.

Vincent has been around during my waking hours. I can feel him move with me. He reminds me of my own astral body guard:) There have been a few instances where the connection was tight and clear - I could see him smiling - laughing. It was nice to be able to feel him feel something other than unhappiness.

Will - he's always around too - but not as close as Vincent - Vincent won't let him. I had a flash visit of me, Bill, Ted and Vincent in a hotel room - chatting. I announced that I want Will here too. Panic spread on their faces and they all said no at once. I told them tough shit - if they want me here - then they'd better go get Will. LOL.

Samantha went back to the vet - her thyroid is still a little high - but all other worries are now gone:) That was so nice to hear. Even though she is not happy to get her pill 2x - she takes it. I'm happy to have my Ninja cat back!

My lower back still kinda hurts - and I noticed a fine crack in my son's tooth. I'm using a heating pad and he goes to the dentist on Tuesday.

I managed to get some medicine in Little Black Kitty's eye last week - only problem is that he hasn't been back since :(

For some reason I'm obsessing over Sex In The City. No idea why. I never watched it on HBO or the reruns - never went to see the movie. But all of a sudden I have to watch it. Very strange.

I got my spring seed catalogs in the mail today - whoo hoo! My kid eats apples like you wouldn't believe - so I'm getting 2 apple trees to put in. Of course I won't see any apples for a couple of years - but I'm still doing it! It goes along with my grapes, blueberries, raspberries and strawberries:) My way of thinking is if I plan it - it better feed me or bring me some luck. There's always that chance that we won't even be living here by even summer - but I do plan on keeping the house. After I win an Oscar I'll put the house up for sale on eBay - lol!

I know there's more going on - I just can't think what else right now.

Have a wonderful weekend!

Crystal Sunshine!
Allie :)
