Saturday, January 22nd

Friday was a pure rest day for all of us.  Michellie spent most of the day helping her friend Morgan design healing bracelets.  With the strings wrapped around her big toe, she was all grins trying to decide on green/blue/white or should she add purple?  Anyway, Morgan is launching a healing campaign shortly for anyone wanting to wear the bracelet in support of the healing of Michellie's system. 

We also spent the day trying to determine if she should eat fruit, bread, vegetables etc. with her yeast infection. There were so many conflicting reports on what to do.  Our final decision was that if we chose food to be healing food, it would do the trick.  So, we had fresh strawberries and raspberries with real whipping cream flavored with vanilla and stevia for a treat. (Did you know that Stevia is an anti-fungal herb?  Thanks Evelyn Mulders for your herb book of knowledge). And, we followed the fruit with veggies and dip.  For supper we made our first home made pizza from scratch, and Michellie declared it the best pizza she had ever eaten.  She had put ranch dressing as the base and loved it.  So, we finished the night satiated and happy about it.

The night had some challenges with joint pain causing Michellie some problems.  With the wind howling outside, Mom got to crawl into Michellie's cold sheets to do some healing work and diminish the pain.  Mom fell asleep before Michellie and started the snoring (I am sure she was lying about this - only Dad snores).  Michellie was so kindly awoken at 5:30 am when Missy crawled in to share her love with us.  Standing on Michellie's shoulders she spent a few minutes licking Michellie's bald held and purring.  What a sight!  Hunter could not be out done, so he bounded up and joined us to purr at Michellie's feet.  With lots of love to go around, Michellie received the benefits of the Pet Reiki treatment.  (We are so glad to have these cats! Did you know that cats have a positive energy field that they exchange with us when we need negative or lower energy removed from our bodies?  Interesting theory isn't it?!  Sure explains all the love we receive each night.)



Michellie's energy this morning has climbed significantly.  Her room is once again cleaner than ours and she is all dressed up and ready for action.  It is amazing how quickly she can bounce back.  Of course, if she is feeling stronger, then Sam can come for a visit, so the incentive is definitely there.  Oh, the advantage of having youth on her side.  Well Grandma, I think stuffed chicken is in order for tonight - that was always a good feeling recipe for me!



Happy Robbie Burns Day Celebrations!  This was a long time back!
