11:45 pm I had a beautiful day with Jarrod and Crystal today. Also a lovely day yesterday with Lyn and Peter. So happy and grateful for the abundance, love and happiness. It was a delicious feasting!

26 December 2019

I had a lovely day with Jarrod today. He brought lots of antipasto for our lunch. In the evening we watched “Years and Years” on sbs on demand. Fascinating!

…

7.14 am. I promised myself a love letter a day so here it goes:

Dearest Tanya,

I think you are an amazing and brave and beautiful woman. I love how you have grown from a very quiet terrorised little girl into a deeply expressive outspoken (sometimes witty and obnoxious!) audacious fearless mature woman.

The sassy side of your nature, the extroverted aspects of your nature that your family of origin and the education system almost obliterated with so much horror and abuse, you reclaimed in the past 10 years. You truly became the woman you always dreamed of Becoming. Wild, Free, Indomitable and Delightful.

No matter how much awfulness has been thrown at you (and there were decades of abject horror!) you continuously rise above it. Sometimes the only thing holding you together like a finely wrought silver cord was your faith in a higher power:yours and God’s and your innate strength and defiance against a sick sick society.

Your Love shines. Radiant and ephemeral. No human male lover had proved worthy of you. All the games and cruel abuses broke you down a multitude of times and yet you mysteriously kept Love burning bright inside you like a beacon of Hope as well as your ancient preternatural Distress call. A siren of fate. A lighthouse in storm tossed seas.

Like Odysseus tied to the mast of his ship and blindfolded to avert the Sirens’ depth-sounding songs of Death you went out and without qualms...you Danced. In the darkest most unholy Spaces you maintained your Sacred Tryst with the gods.

So much spite and envy was hurled at you, by people in that scene you had thought were friends. Even lovers: envious of your courage and light.

You wanted to die. Do you know why you are still alive? Still Chosen, little one? You have a yet unfulfilled Destiny. I know you felt cheated out of peaceful Oblivion. Robbed of love and success and money. But those are just fripperies.

You are a Soul that is manifest on Earth because you are needed and wanted and admired. By very few humans and all your pets and wild bird/animal visitors to Sacred Space.

Don’t beat yourself up for your anger and fire and passion for wanting to be loved, seen, respected. Those are basic rights of all living sentient beings. You deserve all the love that was strangled out of you by monsters. All the love that was stomped on and disavowed by cowardly bloodless curs.

Open your heart and mind as you have been so masterfully doing in recent years. Watch the magic unfold. The magic that is you. Do not give up.I have your back! Always and forever.

Love from

(Insert The Name here)

I found this sticker stuck on my chest. When I read it I had a little laugh. My mother celebrated Xmas on Xmas eve (German Xmas!) and my silly daughter chose that afternoon to upset me.

The spirit of my mother is “acting out” as I am in the process of removing her couch from the lounge. (two pieces still here but rest of it under the house!)

Well, how did a food-type packaging sticker get into my bed with me? Probably one of the cats brought it in and I rolled on it in my sleep.

Used by date 24 December. Mama T is Done. But it is all good. Mother’s have greater capacity for forgiveness and moving on than one usually can expect.

Mother’s love is Eternal. (Or in Gisela’s case Infernal!)

1.01 pm

(still 11s). I wonder what my angels/Trickster gods/elementals are trying to say to me? Very determined are they! Sweetness and light and hmmm, ccccccommitment. But to Whom or What?

I woke up with a big love and an unmistakeable energy signature. Still a bond of sorts after all this time/distance/unrequitedness. Silly man.

I am ignoring it. Not my monkey, not my circus. If he wants me, he knows how to get in contact with me.

I have had quite enough ghosts and zombies and false lovers for several lifetimes.

Let them quiver in their jocks and crawl at the feet of their Queen of Wands as Davidson Devo did in June 2016.

I always warned him that would happen if he kept harming me. (I myself never fully realised my own power: in fact I was half-joking). But there it is. Manifestations of a woman’s love.

Popping up like glove puppets in a neverending Punch and Judy Puppet Show. The Tanya hammers each and every salacious treacherous bastard down and licks her wounds and loves her beauty, power and life. (Why not? Nothing better to do!)

It’s a comedy of errors, a grotesque comedy of terrors, a delightful tragic bliss and a serenade of yearning that lasted far too long, like screeching Banshees or blasted sunset-driven horny cats. (No pussy grabbing, crotch pounding, flesh merging for you, motherfucker!)

I was gifted a woman’s body with a mind of a man and the soul of a goddess. It has its handicaps. Psy Sighs.

…

11:11 am. Days of this! Lol! Funny old world!

…

It’s Boxing Day. It’s hot again. Storms impending. Tornadoes threatening! Stay safe, people!

I am feeling content! The neighbourhood is quiet. All is well!

Jarrod brought a lovely lunch. We are having a lovely day. He cooked a stuffed turkey roll, made coleslaw and potato salad and we have enjoyed our lunch. Now sitting in the garden revelling in all the bird life.

…

I had a lovely day with Lyn, Peter, Annette and Daryll and Danni. I arrived just as they were having lunch (my food radar rarely fails :-) ) and we passed the afternoon chatting merrily enjoying each other's company.

Puppy was especially excited to see me!

Lyn have me a gorgeous pop-up book on Vikings. It even had a viking ship pop-up in the middle. I was excited like a kid. I collect pop-up books (or used to, for my children) so I was enchanted!

26 December 2013

Being driven to pick up Crystal with Jarrod in his car, to go see The Hobbit! Precioussss!

…

Chanukah was over, now Christmas is over... New Year Eve craziness yet to come, followed by Tu B'Shvat (new year of trees).

Tonight, boxing day, my gorgeous daughter and my friend Jarrod are taking me out to see The Hobbit as we are all Tolkein fans from way back. So I am really looking forward to seeing that.

It's 2.03pm just woke up to the sound of my neighbour yelling about chicken. Oh the holidays, the stress, the psychotic arguments about everything and nothing. So glad my toxic family is dead and the few remaining of my family of origin are out of my life.

I finally get to experience Peace and Joy and healing!

…

So my neighbour Timsa calls out my name from behind our communal fence. I call out "Here I am". He comes to peep over the top of the timber fence.

“Merry Christmas! I want you to meet a Jew!" A young man appears beside him, smiling. I grin back, inanely.

“Shalom" I say "you are a Jew? An Israeli?" "Ken" he says "b'seder". I laugh.

"Happy Chanukah. Where is your Kippah?"

He blushes. "Ahh you are a Secular Jew like me!"

Very funny and odd way to meet the neighbours. He is going back to Israel in a week. Lovely!

…

Pomeranian puppy for sale $500 in Laidley. Soooo tempting. Miss my girl so much!

…

Just watered entire garden and refilled fry pond. Now knackered but happy!

Loving The Big Lebowski!

…

Just watched Betty Blue! What an amazing film!

26 December 2011

I enjoyed a lovely visit with my "Mum" Sybil today! Gail and Tayhlia and Miss Bella Rosa were happy to spend time with her too! Thanks for having us Sybil! xxx
