Though the end of the year, last year, brougth much drama, for now, it is over. In a way, it handled itself. The Sheriff's here were amazing, and when I go in to talk to them about my adopted daughter, they all ask if things are smoothing out and if I am having any more problems with the women involved. It is so nice to report that no, I am not. They smile and are happy for me, which is really nice. My benefit was in them already knowing me over the years, knowing my family situation, financial situation, and my Bi-polar. The things I was accused of, they all knew I would never do. No charges were ever filed!!! Not only that, even when the Warrant for Commital hit my door, the officer administering it, told us he thought it had already been handled three days before. He was just as frustrated as we were, knowing it was out of revenge for the one woman getting yelled at like a three year old for taking off in a car that was not hers for eight hours without a call to anyone to let us know where she was.
They have continued to spread lies, but those are easily dispelled. Even my step-daughter was approached and told that I had lost custody of my son and daughter, and that I only had visitation with my son...which was not true. I had a good laugh about that one with her, and she told me that only we as family are allowed to talk bad about each other. She knew it was a lie, but wanted to come tell me what she had been told. She found it funny that this "news" had come from a woman who has had no contact with me since the day I quite work, November 4th. If she is such an expert on what is going on in my home, she would have had to have been here, or she would just be lying. As the lies are seen for what they are, I am told by others that they have lost respect for her, and that they no longer can trust what she is saying. That is something she has brought upon herself.
Right after they started their little plan to try to wreck my life, they tried binding me. I found this really funny, as I could feel the attemps being made, as well as read about them online, as they were talking about it on several witchy sites. However, since I had done nothing of which they were claiming, I feel assured that the God and Goddess would not let it happen, as they knew that lies were being told in order to try to do the binging in the first place. It failed, and I am still my magical self. In fact, I am stronger, and more self-assured, as Karma is working herself into a frenzy over this issue. I have done no repelling spells, I have done no ill magic towards either of the women, instead, I let others see what they were doing and saying, and seeing how transparent and psychotic it all was, and Karma stepped in.
Now onto the best News!!!
The Yule presents we received were better than any material object that could ever be given. Our mortgage was re-worked, to a 5% fixed rate, and my Mother in Law, her cancer markers were in the 4,000's and now, they are registering at 698, so the chemo is working, the only problem is the pump they have her on, is making her sick. I ask for prayers that the chemo continue to work, without the illness and weight loss it is presenting. She is a fighter and this is the best news we could have ever gotten.
I am blessed with wonderful friends, and finding time to be myself once again. That has been lacking over the last year, as I was influenced by the women I was talking about above, though I never thought they would turn the way they did. Now, I am stronger, finding that those I have known for a long time, are the people I am meant to be conversing with, and have found that through it all, my family fights for each other. I am truly blessed, and working more and more on my magical side, as that is where I am supposed to be at this time. I thank those who let me vent, as that helped me to heal. Though there can be forgiveness, I cannot forget. I will not allow that poison back into my life, or the lives of my family, and now, I am able to say NO much more easily. We all learn from what we endure, we have to make those lessons worth the teaching.
