Living World of Romagypsy
I started this web page with a view to having an altered ego and friends that were going to save the world and have some fun along the way, this was all in the name of a personal objective for my appraisal, as for some strange reason I wanted to be able to do this. (at this point don't you just love managers!) much as I'd like to name him and shame him, as he knew once I'd said I was going to give it a go, he'd kick my butt up and down until I'd completed it! - however I do thank him for this and many other helpful advise he has given me in this past year, as its been a major learning curve so boss you know who you are thank you.

Another week passes in a blur and you wonder "what did I do with my time or my week1" did it all just pass in a haze did I actually do anything besides work!!!
Well yes this week I did. I took a few days off so my god-daughter could change my hair to purple and red, I'm telling you it was the best fun ever and to the bargin I got a great hair and colour that just about blows everyone away. My other good news this week is oh and it has to be the best news so my cousin had a little baby boy and just how great is that bringing a new life into the world, they do bring love to us all. Enough gushing from me for now anyway.
------------------------------------------------------------------------
Well i'm still having fun here and hope whatever I write it will either make you stop, pause, think, have hope, maybe still your mind, give you peace and maybe even make you laugh. I'm sure you going to have a bit of a giggle at the new additions!

Book of Shadows.
I have on my computer a book called the book of shadows, now this might sound a strange thing to have, I use my book for keeping things like "prosperity 'manifestation board' " which is things that I want to own or do, it make's you stay focused on what you want to achieve and how to do this.
------------------------------------------------------------------------
It also has lists of foods that are good for you how you should have them, my list of food groups is getting longer by the day, and only with good foods, but with foods we know we should say no to but for some reason the brain says you know you want that bar of chocolate. I keep recipes in there for food and drinks.
A chocolate fix: Now this does serve 4 people.........however if you want to hide it! I can understand that.
Chocolate Shake
600ml/1 pint Milk:6 tsp cococa:4 tsp sugar:150ml/5fl oz whipping cream:1 tsp caster sugar:8 scoops vanilla ice cream:4 scoops chocolate ice cream:4 chocolate flakes:4 ice cream wafers:
1. Heat 1/2 the milk in a pan. Stir in the cocoa and sugar; bring to the boil. Pour in the rest of milk, stirring, and heat through. Remove from heat , and leave to cool for 30 minutes. Chill for 1 hour in the fridge.
2 Put 4 glasses in the freezer to chill.. Beat the cream with an electric whisk until stiff peaks form. Mix in the caster sugar. Spoon in a piping bag that has a star nozzle (don't worry if you don't have one)
3 Put 2 scoops of vanilla and 1 scoope of chocolate ice cream in a glass. Stir chilled chocolate mixture and pour over ice cream. Pipe a cream swirl over each shake. Add the flake and wafer. Serve immediately with a straw.
There you go chocolate heaven........

Too Waffle making, now have you ever tried to do that when it says 10grms of baking powder well it helps right if you actually have a scale that does that - I mean well 1oz is 25grms you just have to feel your way. My nephew tells me tho that the Mickey Waffles (yep you heard right) I spent all of Saturday afternoon making Mickey Mouse Head waffles to eat. Not sure if that actually means anything eating a mouse head - but all the messing around with the mixture and getting it right paid of. They went down really well with Ice Cream.
Traditional Waffles
Flour
icing sugar
milk
butter
salt
baking powder
eggs
mix together the flour and baking powder, add the salt, melted butter and icing sugar and then add the milk a little drop at a time. Once all mixed - Leave to stand for an hour and then cook on a waffle maker for about 3-3/12 minutes.
And the end result perfect waffles or so he nephew says, but don't take my word for it try it yourself and see.

Things I love: Crystals and using chakras, which there are Seven:
1. Base chakra is is located at the base of the spine and is liked to the adrenal glands =(fight or flight). Its usually linked with the colour red, its main functions are the physical survival, energy distribution and practicality. I use Jasper as this is a grounding and will gently activate the functions of the body.
2. The second, sacral, chakra is situated in the lower abdomen just below the navel. Its colour is orange and its functions are the creativity, feelings, pleasure and exploration. I use Orange calcite this is good for melting away problems.
3. The third chakra is the soloar plexus, just below the ribcage. Its yellow, and associated with the splean and pancreas. this chakra helps with the sense of identity, personal power and build your self-confidence. I use Citrine quartz as this well help to keep the mind clear.
4 The fourth chakra is located at the centre of the chest and deals with the heart and thymus gland. The colour of the stone is green, the heart chakra deals with relationships, personal development and direction, For this I have Aventurine green this is good as a heart balancer. A good stone for digging out deep feelings, hurt and resentments and wanting to break unwated ties and behaviour patterns is Malachite.
5. The fifth chakra is throat and thyroid glands, and is the colour of blue. his deals with communication, personal expression and the flow of information. I use turquoise which is a supportive and protective stone.
6. The six chakra, and is also known as the third eye, is in the centre of the brow. the colour is indigo and is link to the pineal or pituritary glands. This deals with understanding, perception, knowledge and mental organization. I have Lapis Lazuli this has the effect of stimulationg the rapid realease of stresses to gain a greater peace.
7. The seventh chakra, is the crown and is located at the top of the head. Its the balance of the chakra sstem and channels the life energy into the system. It give's a sense of wholeness and stimulates the levels of perception, intuition and inspiration. I always use amehtyst (as that is my birth stone) this a healing stone, helps to blance the mind and is very good for meditation.

Crystals and Crystal Healing
Yes I am one of these people that believe in that, I know some people don't get, but me I think well if you believe it and it helps why not.
This should give you a very little detail of crystals and what they can do for you, me well i get a lot from it I hope you will too.
A good exercise I use is to sit in comfortalbe and relax position, make sure the room is warm - Hold the crystal in the palms of your hand and relax and just be aware of the crystal in your hands. In your minds eye see the crystal and feel (how does this feel to you) once you have mastered this, relax again and listen to the sound, smell and taste comes from it.
Start to take in deep slow breaths feel your inner eyes open and imagine the struction of the crystal, the quality of light and the images it brings to you.
To finish of will become aware once more of the taste, touch,sound and gradually bring your awareness out of the crystal and be more aware of your body and the world around you.
When I practise this I use low level lighting and sometime use a rose quartz. Rose quartz has a ver calming and reassuring effect. It can however release powerful unexpressed emotions where they might blocking personal growth.

I'm now heading towards the tartot cards to me this is an amazing world, some people think this is rubbish, other people swear and live there lives by it. To me well I say if it does you good and gives you hope and even points you in the right direction, your not harming anyone well just enjoy it.
I've got no one in mind but if this is for you then here is a little reading from the cards.
1st card is the 3 wands This is the brings new beginings and that sometimes its best to take the most direct path even if it seems the wrong one to take - be bold, strong, confident what your doing is correct. To the right and left of your shoulder is the arch angel raphael and micheal looking after you they give you strenght and protection and will guide you and protect you this is your new dawn,
2nd card The hierophant is reversed This part of your past it shows that you've had troubles and you've not known where to turn to - that you didn't see your spirtual journing going on, being stuck in a rut and not knowing how to turn it round. You've supprised your family now though as you've managed to turn your life round and strike out to new grounds. There is a dominate purple colour here (this is a healing colour) For you the church is an important part of your life and holds the values you like to live by. Not sure why but Mathew chapter 1 verse 4 is important.
3rd card the outcome is 8 swords this is very interesting for me this is the card that says you've been trap and not sure how to free yoursel, but as you've now decided to get out of the rut you have the tools you need to free you from your past where you've been trapped. Pause and listen to what is being wispered to you, you are being guided to your future.
One of the things to bring you clarity to your out come is to:
Find a quiet space - close your eyes - relax - cross your hands over your heart - feel your lungs filling with air - breath in for 8 hold for 8 and out for 8 - feel where the air is going cleansing every part of you - feel each beat of your heart for 8 minutes - now call upon the the angel of Clarity to come into your life - Say to yourself or out loud " I now summon the powers of clarity to help me decide" sit for a while and experience your answer.
I hope whoever reads this and its for them that it brings good to there life and these for me are very powerful and meaningful words.
If you would like me to do a short reading for you feel free to email me. Send 3 numbers and I will get back to you and there is no charge for me doing this.
Some times I feel when you give something to someone with nothing to gain but the gift of actually doing something for someone is the best gift of all as you've made someone happy.

I read many books from childrens books with the nephew (how many times will I have to read Stone Soup I do not know, but for anyone with children you should look out for this book)
My little list of books, which there are many, but only a few are on this list:
The Quiet Mind - Sayings of White Eagle, what an amazing book it teaches you to pause for thought, what to aspire too and strength you can achieve, and this is only a few things.
I can read this book over and over again, the words of widsom it imparts to you. I have gain a lot from this. One thing I read is about the Gentle Spirit. (forgive us our trespasses, as we forgive thouse who trespass against us) What words and what does it mean, its only a few words you might thing, but stop and pause and look at it again. Forgiveness what does it to anyone - well after reading this book, it means a whole different thing to me. To be able to forgive yourself as your spriit forgives your personality, this also helps you to learn to forgive others and once you start that ball rolling......
And thats just one part of the book.
------------------------------------------------------------------------
The Dalai Lama's book of Wisdom - now this book needs no introduction at all. A line from this book quote " We know from our daily experience that mental happiness is beneficial"
How great a gift the holy man has and to smile is one of the greatest gifts to have as you know a smile can lift a person a million miles.
------------------------------------------------------------------------
Faith by St Paul this little book by St Paul about himself = He was a founding father of the Christian Church.
Faith to me is sometimes saying well I know I can't see it, but I believe it. Putting your foot foward without thinking will I fall. Which is what god wants just for us to trust what he does for is good. Sometimes we get so wrapped up in life we forget to see whats in front of us. The child with a smile that says I love and trust you so much. An elderly man or lady who looks and thinks who will say hello to me next. I challenge everyone who reads this the next person they see smile and say hello you never know you could just make there day.
------------------------------------------------------------------------
With these books I also have books on Florida and its many delights of Orlando, who could not love Mickey. When its said its the happiest place in the world, there not kidding, you go in as a mature adult and come out singing "its a small world after all". I think thats the child in me go on you know you want to try it. One of the many books on Florida I have is the AA Essential Orlando its pocket size and has a great amount of information places to see, stay and eat.
In Disney its self I have eaten in many of the fine places, but by far for me anyway the best place to eat and for Thanksgiving Lunch or Dinner, you cannot beat the crystal palace.
------------------------------------------------------------------------
And to finish this list is a book called Tell me another one. A woman's guide to Men's classic lines this is by Judith Newman, this book is just a scream. Guys we do not need those lines as we just fit are own meanings into them and most of you know its really not helping you in the long run.
------------------------------------------------------------------------
Well now I'm heading out the USA for a couple weeks holiday and I can't wait so I'll keep you posted on that one.
