DAY 1146: Between Lost and Found
So, for almost two months now, I have been looking for three items I clearly remember packing while in my bedroom in New Hampshire. Three days ago, I began looking for my rosemary essential oil, without success. Two days ago I gave up looking for everything, sat in my hammock chair, and asked Goddess to let me find my lost items. Almost immediately, I noticed a magnesium capsule in the silverware drawer. I laughed because I didn't even know I'd lost it, and figured She was having a good laugh, too.
Today I went looking for a small chest holding large crystals I want to charge under tomorrow's full moon, and a numerology book by Louise Hay to introduce a few skoolie sisters to numerology tomorrow night under that same full moon. I found the box of crystals ... and ... two of the three items that I had been looking for earlier: a book and four pine candles named Believe. This was while Tik Tok was repeating the same post over and over because I'd put my down on the counter. I chuckled when I got back to my phone and read the message.
All this has me adopting a phrase one of those skoolie sisters uses: I'm somewhere between lost and found. It fit me perfectly today, as well as many other days.
While snuggled in my hammock chair pretty much all day, I ordered the sleeper sofa I want for Karmalita because it was on sale. There is a story about that that ended with me trying to cancel my cancellation request. Suffice it to say I did not stay with my first impression and spent almost an hour flip flopping between other retailers and other sleeper sofas before circling back to the gold couch .
Moving on, my wound is nearly healed; I'm almost ready to stop with the bandages and just let it breathe.
It's been in the low 50s and raining today, so I've stayed on the bus and in my maxi-length, hooded sweatshirt that is one of my most beloved items of clothing. This is my second maxi sweatshirt, purchased about two years ago after wearing out the first one I got when I launched in 2019. Not wanting to ever be without one, I went out to order a third lounger, only to find Coldwater Creek is no longer selling them. Poshmark and eBay, here I come. Tomorrow is Cyber Monday.
