Compatible are WE
Author: Chelle
Your basic aims and approach to life are in harmony, and the mutual respect you feel forms the basis of an excellent friendship or partnership. You feel understood, appreciated, recognized, and affirmed by one another. You stimulate, vitalize, motivate, and believe in each other. Successful cooperation in achieving goals and accomplishing tasks is highlighted. You make an excellent working team and you are able to assist each other in achieving specific, concrete goals.
This is another compatibility reading for Ern and I. It explains us very well. Its amazing how dead on alot of these readings can be. We are great for each other!
Lotus Flower
Author: Chelle
The lotus flower appears in legends originating both from India and from ancient Egypt. Symbol of light and enlightenment, ruled by the rays of the sun and the pull of moon.
I think I may want to get a tattoo of a lotus flower. I really like the fact that they are the symbol of light and enlightenment. Thats very intriguing…sounds very astronomical and I love that about it. We shall see…
The Embodiment of Calm
Author: Chelle
A person gifted with both keen logic and natural intuition, giving them uncanny powers of perception and insight. One who easily sees past deception and confusion to the heart of a matter, and understands both sides of any argument. The embodiment of calm, forthrightness, and wit, in the face of even the most trying circumstances.
This is my Tarot Reading for today…describes me very well actually. Im surprised! I am very calm and collected usually. I dont get angry very easily and certainly dont get angry for something foolish or insignificant. I hold my emotions together fairly well I would say. To be happy is to accept yourself and everyone else for who they are.
Making a list….checking it twice…
Author: Chelle
The Moon is in Sagittarius and the Archer is aiming his arrow directly toward expansive Jupiter. The Moon also activates a dynamic square to crazy Uranus, turning our feelings inside out. Thankfully, we will be able to understand what’s going on and even talk about it clearly with retrograde Mercury passing between the Earth and the Sun. The Mercury-Sun conjunction in emotional Cancer encourages us to share our feelings and unfulfilled dreams.
Sounds like me…lol…I am always sharing my feelings and unfulfilled dreams. Its funny cause Im always making an organized plan of what I need to get accomplished such as my workouts, my taxes, my car registration, my laundry, the damn dishes that I hate…lol, and cleaning house. I makes lists to remind me of what I need to do so I can just go through and check it off. Oh yeah and pay the bills that a huge one that I make a list of. Once my list is all checked off…I can think clearly again and enjoy my life.
How to lose weight
Author: Chelle
Okay so I have worked out a fitness plan that is easy to fit into my schedule…cause technically I only have about an hour a day to be able to do this. My workout ranges from 25-45 minutes…at most 1 hour on some days depending on if I want to push myself harder that day. If I exercise 5 days a week at least for about an hour a day I should be able to see results in 5 weeks. I am taking tips from the 5 factor diet which apparently works for most people. I would also have to eat 5 small meals/snacks a day to be 100% into the 5 factor diet but I am slowly working on that.
First I do 20 minutes or so of warm up cardio, such as cycling or treadmill. Then I do about 5 minutes or so of upper body strength. I do 5 minutes of lower body strength. Then core midsection exercises for about 5 minutes. Last but not least I do the fat burning cardio for about 10 minutes or longer if need be that particular day. Then I do some Cool Down Meditation exercises such as stance punches and pivot kicks and stretches for my legs and back.
Technically it doesn’t matter what order you do your exercises, just as long as you workout at least 5 days a week for at least 25 minutes a day. You should always give yourself a rest day or two.
Pool Party
Author: Chelle
We had a pool party for my Uncle Tony’s birthday yesterday. It was fun! Taught Quinton how to swim with floaties…he did really good. Very proud of him! I was sooo tired when we got home…I passed out quick and didnt wanna get up for work this morning. But of course I had to…so oh well!

Little butt little butt….mmmm…Mamas’ little butt. Our baby is a big boy. I love his little smile…he does it all the time now.
HOA’s Go Away
Author: Chelle
I work for a Real Estate Company in Las Vegas. We do Property Management for owners that have tenants in their homes. My job in this business is HOA Coordinator…the hell of real estate. I understand why many communities have Homeowner Associations…they are suppose to keep the community maintained and looking nice. It really is a good idea but it can go to the extreme with some HOA’s in this city.
If you have two little tiny weeds in your front yard that are 2 inches tall…you get a violation.
If you have your vehicle parked in the driveway instead of the garage…you get a violation.
If you have your trash container in plain view from the street….you get a violation.
If your satellite dish wire is not the same color as your house…you get a violation.
If you want to change your landscaping in front or backyard, you have to get the changes approved by the Architectural Review Committee and Board of Directors before you do anything…or else you will get a violation.
It’s ridiculous that when you purchase a home and call yourself an owner…you dont really have control of your own home. You have to abide by the HOA’s Rules and Regulations on a daily basis and it’s only getting worse each and every year. On top of everything else…if you dont abide by their Rules they will fine you sometimes up to $100.00 a week or more until you are in compliance with the community. If you don’t pay your fines they have the ability to put a lien on your property and take it away from you. How is this justice? How does an Association get the power to be able to pry into your personal property and financial state so much. Most…not all….but most of the violations are small insignificant things that should be your right since you own your home. You use your hard earned money to invest in a property and then one little thing can screw you over and get it all taken away. No Association should have a right to do this to people. What happened to privacy and respect? What you have on your property and what you do with your property should be your choice and your own right since you are the ones paying for it.
If anyone has any ideas about how we can organize a petition or ideas how we can stop this madness from being so out of control, please let me know!
I would be more than happy to march in and rip the pedestal right out from under all Homeowners Associations.
My Karmic Doorways
Author: Chelle
Your free-spiritedness in a prior life has led to a certain lack of focus in your current life. In a prior life, you allowed yourself to follow your heart wherever it led you. You loved all kinds of people, delighting in experiencing the feeling of intimacy with people quite unlike yourself. You still possess that love of throwing yourself into a new relationship with someone completely different from you. For you, falling in love is a life lesson. You learn from your partner and from the experience of the relationship itself, which is wonderful. You are likely to be attracted to people not only quite unlike yourself, but also unlike one another.
Well I would say that does sound like me in a way. That was the me before I met Ernie. I believe one person can change you just by loving you….and that is what Ern has done for me. He has taught me that I can fully 100% love him for who he is….and he is a wonderful friend, lover and father.
