Dear Yogis,

It has been a tense few days with the fire still out of control in Bullengarook.  Although that seems a long way away, in terms of fire it is quite close, and I have been told that a few families were evacuated from Ashbourne road on Friday night.  That is very close to some of our yogis, and certainly me.  There is a meeting at The Macedon Ranges Specialist School in Bullengarook tonite at 6pm if you are interested.

I put my painting of Merlin there as we need all the help that we can get.  Merlin (and a good soaking rain) would be good.  It is a watch and act situation.  One of my students bought me a bell to call angels – that will be helpful too…..  my pendulum says all is good for us today, and that is about as much as we can know.

If you are in the danger area, make sure your phone is fully charged, ditto your computers etc, make sure your chargers are on hand and you have all your info. in a folder in your run-away wheelie, and have a plan (and some dollars).  Although I have said you are welcome to come here, on Thursday if the worst happens the cat and I might hit the highway too, just until the front has passed.  The churches will be open and certainly the bluestone St.Mary’s looks safe.. also St.Ambrose.  Buffalo Stadium is the designated evacuation centre.

WHATS ON IN THE STUDIO.

Dear Yogis,

The year is winding down, and the cat and I are winding down… Yesterday I was passing the OpShop and right out front was a fabulous cat Anxiety Bed. Gracie certainly needed something so I bought it (an investment piece) $5.  The cat hopped in right off, and has remained there, scream free for the last few HOURS.  We are both at peace, and  isn’t that what Christmas is all about – do they make person size beds like this? I would love one!!!  Is this fantasy land?

Right now, senior person that I am, I am working on defrosting and tidying up the freezer (no, it is not “frost free”) , and chucking stuff out of the fridge – just getting ready for the next influx of people.  I always say that I am going to hide down the backyard, and with the weeds growing at a pace I could, but my students and friends  “rescue” me from this fate.

TAROT FOR THE DEAF AND THE BLIND:  I am still working on these, much harder than anticipated.  Please email me if you want a guide to your next chapter.  Tarot available by appointment.

CARE BEARS:  Last year I donated about 200 bears, maybe more to those in need.  I have been doing this for about 5 years so I have given almost 1,000 bears to people in crisis.  That’s a lot of bears that would otherwise perhaps gone to landfill.  How anyone could part with these precious items I just don’t know.  I could not.

Dear Yogis,

What a lovely day yesterday – our Christmas lunch.  The day was not too hot, the food was lovely, the company was just the best – thank you all.  Today we are expecting high temperatures, always lesser close to the mountain, but all we need is a stupid fire-bug and we will be in trouble.

Katie and Jacky who are both in the CFA are not stressed and are happy that their stations are well able to deal with whatever happens (except for an inferno- when Elvis will be needed).  I thought that today I would get my preparations and the car ready for action.  Fill the petrol, get the runaway stuff organised, and a supply of cat food.  What are you doing?  Are you prepared?
