where the punchline was that the woman was a G<\/b>ood <\/b>H<\/b>ousekeeper:<\/b> as in owning the home once the partnership ended. I could not help but chuckle when I fell into <\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span>the role of G<\/b>ood <\/b>H<\/b>ousekeeper<\/b>. Yes, I remained in the home once shared in my marriage partnership. Not that it was a strong desire for me. I loved the idea of packing up and leaving this oversized piece of suburbia with its years of accumulated clutter. My first thought was to purchase a trailer and find a patch of land. Run away from civilization. Get away from it all. It was not long after that I watched \u201cInto The Wild\u201d, a beautiful movie where the main character does just that. To extremes. If you have not seen it, I highly recommend it! It is the one movie that I watched twice in a row\u2026and it is a long movie. Came to me at the perfect time\u2026<\/span><\/span><\/span>

Rise from Into the Wild by Eddie Vedder <\/b><\/span><\/a><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

How did I end up in my little mansion? I call it a mansion as I am more aligned to a compact \"1184859_513195032101468_379821253_n-1\"<\/a>living space. It is 2850 square feet. Likely not a mansion in most minds but it was and remains all mine. There was a time thirteen years ago where I declared to my then husband that it was time to do a big purge in our 1300 square foot bungalow \u2013 love bungalows! He very respectfully put together an argument for a new home: a bigger home. He knew me well and fully sold me on the idea. Market conditions in Edmonton proved our decision was a sound one in retrospect. Yeah! The biggest incentive was the dream of a third child. Each child needs<\/b> their own room right? This child had not even been conceived. My only stipulation was that I would always want a housekeeper. Not that I did not already have one. As soon as I got married, it became evident that to save the marriage we would need a housekeeper. That is the story I am sticking with. A great Ang\u00e8<\/span>le soundbite was uttered at a Art Gallery Artist Show Opening in the spring of 2012. I playfully declared to my friend and gallery owner that \u201cI have not cleaned my house since 1993\u201d. She just roared. Sometimes I forget that other people are unaccustomed to m<\/span>y ways<\/span>.<\/span><\/span>
\n<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

\"Kinda<\/a>

Kinda reminds me of…myself.<\/p><\/div>\n

It was only after her reaction that I realized how outrageous that statement sounded. Truth is stranger than fiction. This was 100% true. For most of those years it was the straight forward cleaning service that comes in once every two weeks. I learned that it <\/span>was most harmonious<\/span> to <\/span>hire<\/span> an owner\/operator. Twice I had married couples cleaning my house. They were the best. Love seeing a man vacuuming the place. The one guy was a marathoner \u2013 super fit and really nice. <\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

My foray into creating my reality, manifesting and trusting the Universe to support me began more consciously with the conception of the third blessing, Jean-Luc. I put it out there that I would find a lovely nanny who would allow me to live gracefully with three kids. I have never been too ahead of time in my planning. Once Jean-Luc was born, I started putting it out there that I desired a nanny\/housekeeper. Within two months I was united with my sweet dream, Angel (name changed). She was a friend of my mother-in-law’s longstanding housekeeper, also an acquaintance of mine as she cared for a child attending my daughter’s school. Angel fit so well into our family. For the first time in my life, I had help with food preparation, laundry, yardwork … anything, including windows. <\/span>In the<\/span> back of my mind <\/span>was<\/span> discomfort with the idea of slavery. I had mindfully opted out of the nanny thing with my first \"10300865_10152021021936296_2638691333672591255_n\"<\/a>two <\/span>children<\/span>. I opened my<\/span>self up to new possibilities<\/span> for this third go around. <\/span>I wanted desperately for the arrangement to be win:win.<\/span> She worked two days per week. I only worked part-time at best and from home. Angel was originally from the Phillipines and was trained as a nanny in Hong Kong. She taught me more than I taught her. She was a genius with folding laundry \u2026 even those fitted sheets with the elastic corners. Pure magic. <\/span>I now know that I was not a good student on the day of that lesson. I am too impatient. My fitted sheets look more like clumps than folded laundry.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Like all things in life. Nothing can last forever. Change is inevitable. Once I separated from my marriage partner, we asked if Angel would mind going to his home for one of the days of the week. She declined. Surprised me. It was amazing how much cleaner a house <\/span>can be<\/span> when you get the big boy <\/span>out<\/span>. It did not make sense to keep her for two days a week any longer. She had another part-time job that needed her more so reducing to one day a week got us \"1798557_641694739201653_314139419_n\"<\/a>through to one year. Then the fateful day arrived when she quit in the summer of 2012. It <\/span>had been<\/span> feeling awkward. <\/span>I looked at it with blinders on, wondering if the end was near.<\/span> We could not seem to find a rhythm. I <\/span>was<\/span> a retired girl hanging out while she was cleaning. My house was almost too clean. Kids <\/span>we<\/span>re older now. Cooking less. Etc. Her other job was short staffed and really needed her. That was the story we were both sticking with. <\/span>It was with a heavy heart but full support that I handed her the last paycheck. I love to think bridges are not burned. I wondered if we would be reunited in time. Her job is nearby. To this day I stop in to give her a hug on a regular basis. Give her some love at Christmas.\u00a0 <\/span>I am emotionally attached. After seven years, it is no surprise.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

So for two years now, I cleaned my own house! Never thought I would say that. <\/span>I just did not have the energy to \"58465_452014284926011_1779125810_n\"<\/a>look for someone else to replace her. She is irreplaceable. It would do me some good to clean up after myself for a change. It would just be for a little while…<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

The pampered pooch picks up the mop… about twice a year. Ha ha. One time, I nearly hurt myself doing handstands on a freshly mopped hardwood. Slippery stuff \u2013 not wet, just clean. Started to wonder if cleaning was bad for my health. I declared that when I published my writing, I would hire cleaning help again. It was not a huge incentive. I just did not experience a super clean house most of the time. I wanted to teach my kids how to clean. That was irregular at best. If I noticed something, I would clean it. Turns out, I am not all that observant. My first blog post was April 2014. I loosely committed to find a cleaner<\/span>. So distracted with the new publishing that a couple months passed before I noticed. Hey, where <\/span>wa<\/span>s that cleaner now? I made a solemn declaration to find one. What did I do? Nothing aside from the declaration. This is where i<\/span>t<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

\"Just<\/a>

Just after hired my cleaner, Richard Simmons was offering his services…<\/p><\/div>\n

gets kinda cool.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Not one week passes. I am doing my thing at my computer when the doorbell rings June 19, 2014. I answer. A lovely owner\/operator of a housecleaning service company, originally from South America, <\/span>wa<\/span>s at the door. Her introduction <\/span>wa<\/span>s something along the lines of: I clean at one of your neighbor’s homes and wonder if you are looking for help? Why yes, I am. Please come in. We review the details. Hired. She started June 26, 2014 to come every two weeks with her niece. <\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

I loved it when my daughter inquire<\/span>d: <\/span> \u201cHow does one go about hiring a cleaning service?\u201d <\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

I answer: I am glad you asked. I just answered the doorbell. <\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

I delighted in the fact that I did no more than intend for it to happen.\"546834_372076476213325_2088608657_n-1\"<\/a><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

So I decide to try this again. I would like help with yardwork. Within one week, \u201cding dong\u201d. It is a young gent working for a yard company. \u201cDo you need any yard or house maintenance help?\u201d <\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Me:\u00a0 Why yes, I do. <\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

I had received a mailout card that I planned to phone weeks prior. But here was a representative of that same company before I <\/span>ever got around to it. The next day, the Danish owner is onsite. Hired. Within three weeks, I have refreshed my mulch with lovely shredded cedar, removed 9 trees that were dead or dying, along with weekly lawn mowing and a few other odds and ends. A European gardener, yeah! I find out over time that he works at my parenting partner’s yard too. Small world.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

A week or two before the yard care connection, another magical \u201cding dong\u201d.\u00a0 A story – always. One Friday night this past spring I was dropping my boys to their dad’s. Somehow, my neighbor, <\/span>also my longtime<\/span> dentist, texted my parenting partner, instead of me, wondering if I would like help with spring cleaning <\/span>in the yard<\/span>. I texted <\/span>back<\/span> immediately \"1016289_480322002055438_41347037_n\"<\/a>\u201cyes\u201d. He mentioned a friend was helping with his and would gladly do mine too. I did not realize that th<\/span>e<\/span> friend was not in the yardcare business.\u00a0 The two friends just rented a power rake? Aerator? I do not even know which power tool was used on my lawn. It does not matter, does it? The very next morning, 9AM, <\/span>a handsome<\/span> gentlemen serviced \u2026 my yard. I just could not tear myself away from writing. I figured he would not want to be disturbed. I took one sideways glance. A gentleman who is looking after himself <\/span>quite well<\/span> was giving me a hand. Nice. I did not realize that my dentist was also in there. Truth is, once again, stranger than fiction. These guys got the job done. Time passes and I remember that I have not paid for the service. I was given the contact info.<\/span>\u00a0 My <\/span>mysterious<\/i><\/span> yard helper will catch me sometime. He drops in to his friend, my neighbor, regularly. I expressed I would prefer to meet him rather than just put money in an envelope and give to my neighbor. One miss and finally he caught me by phone to ask if he c<\/span><\/span>ou<\/span><\/span>l<\/span><\/span>d<\/span><\/span> drop by. <\/span><\/span>Weeks have passed from the original service.<\/span><\/span> \u201cDing dong\u201d. Instantly, I detect<\/span><\/span>ed<\/span><\/span> a friend<\/span><\/span>.<\/span><\/span> I wondered about other yard issues and show him around the yard. I was unclear about whether he wanted more work or not. Maybe he was also unclear. Conversation becomes very authentic pretty quickly. He was on the divorce track too, one year post separation. Long and inviting hug was enjoyed. It came out that my lawnmower was in need of repair so my lawn would not be mowed despite needing it.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

He offer<\/span><\/span>ed<\/span><\/span> to come by the next day as he was doing another in the neighborhood anyway. \"1234189_507636599323978_539942532_n-1\"<\/a><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

I have not enjoyed watching my lawn be mowed more than on this day. I felt obliged to busy myself with trimming a bush.\u00a0 He is really attractive … on many levels.<\/span><\/span>\u00a0 Blooming man.\u00a0 I told him so.\u00a0 A man cannot help but blush at this type of compliment…
\n<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

It was super cute how he would come to my yard waste container more often than was <\/span><\/span>seemingly<\/span><\/span> required to pour a few grass clippings and then return to the task.\u00a0 I generally just mulch and do not bag but I was not going to tell him.\u00a0 I was biting my hand, in my mind.\u00a0 Maybe my lower lip too…
\nFunny when I was telling my Backwards Day friend that I had a new friend<\/em> come over and mow my lawn. He <\/span><\/span>roared playfully<\/span><\/span>, \u201cnice\u201d. I clarified, \u201cNo, he cut the grass growing in my yard.\u201d I did not allow myself to be misunderstood. It was still sexy.\u00a0 I learn a new thing everyday.
\n<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

This time, no money changed hands. <\/span><\/span>We vowed to stay in touch.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

I felt obliged to hire yard help after this. He had a lot on his plate, including a full time job. It is my nature to be fiercely independent. Maybe that was stupid? Not sure I wanted yard maintenance neediness to be the bait in creating a romantic relationship. He has stopped by a few times since then but his heart remains with another. In a land far, far away. He was quick to share that he enjoyed a romantic relationship with a woman in the States.\u00a0 She had authentically desired a female companion for him close to home.\u00a0 Her wish preceded our synchronistic meeting by only days.\u00a0 We openly discussed our sparky connection<\/em>.\u00a0 As much as she initially wished it, she (likely he also) found it weird for him to be mowing another woman’s <\/em>lawn.\u00a0 Nothing wrong with someone changing her mind.\u00a0 When you love someone, you want the best for them.\u00a0 I can empathize with her intentions to want him looked after when they were geographically separated. But we are all human.\u00a0 I am unaware of a role model for sharing the human heart harmoniously between two lovers.\u00a0 If an example exists, I would love to know it.\u00a0 I did not mind enjoying the magic for the short moment.
\n<\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

\"846_385193591568280_387206237_n\"<\/a>I received a text one day when my European Gardener was doing a big project in my yard.\u00a0 My spring clean gardener stated, “I see you replaced me… Lol”\u00a0 My answer was “I would not put it that way. … You will always be my #1… gardener”.\u00a0 Love to flirt!\u00a0 I had decided that I did not want my unkempt yard to add to his already overburdened nervous system.\u00a0 He complimented the more tidy, kept appearance of the front yard… as he drove by.\u00a0 I laugh.\u00a0 Always.\u00a0 He actually did stop in for a quickie… hug that is.\u00a0 Get your mind out of the gutter now.\u00a0 Ha ha.

Let it be what it is. Funny that a psychic reading I had, just for kicks, shortly thereafter saw him as my \"Man<\/a>next relationship. If the read holds any water, that could be fun. Perhaps that was the energy that day. These things can change quickly. I have learned my lesson. Forget chasing guys. They seem to hate that. Makes sense…<\/span><\/p>\n

It is working out rather well… He knows me and loves me exactly as I am. He does everything I want to do. He goes everywhere I want to go. He is really hot! He can be everywhere at once so his schedule always matches mine. Geographic location, another of my challenges, is of no concern.\u00a0 Don’t knock it until you have tried it!<\/span><\/p>\n

May 2012 checked off see the Louvre and Paris<\/em> in one fell swoop.\u00a0 Had an unusual rendez-vous with a statue.\u00a0 It is titled faune endormi by Edme Bouchardon.\u00a0 My assessment was that the energy from the artist got a good grip on me.\u00a0 The statue was my boyfriend for the day.\u00a0 That was a first … and a last.\u00a0 Truth is stranger than fiction.\u00a0 I was also a little crazy.\u00a0 Not really sure how to define crazy these days though.\u00a0 Is it seeing things with a wider view?\u00a0 Heaven only knows.<\/p>\n

A final example how things can just come to you with ease and grace<\/strong>:\u00a0 Mother Meera.\u00a0 She is an Indian woman felt by many to be an avatar: a deity on earth is one definition I found on dictionary.com.\u00a0 I first heard about her over two and a half years ago.\u00a0 I received first hand stories from a man I traveled with in Ecuador.\u00a0 The most inspiring was when he described helping out with building an orphanage.\u00a0 He is an computer guy so physical labor was not a part of his routine outside of his work for Mother.\u00a0 He would feel very fatigued but quickly refreshed after sitting next to Mother Meera for about ten minutes.\u00a0 His physical stamina surprised him as he would work hard all day in construction.\u00a0 He described a beautiful energy when in her presence.\u00a0 That piqued my curiosity.\u00a0 I started following her on Facebook.\u00a0 I looked at her schedule a couple of times and wondered if I would travel to see her in person somewhere in the world.\u00a0 Germany is her home base.\u00a0 In the end, she came to Edmonton.\u00a0 I drove 10 minutes to see her on July 16, 2014.\u00a0 That was easy!<\/p>\n

Some Core Concepts of Bashar<\/strong><\/a>.\u00a0 This link is a bit busy but if you are inspired to sift through it a little, there is a lot there.\u00a0 Bashar describes how your excitement is your compass to let you know you \"1016804_523276247727825_958611696_n\"<\/a>are on course.\u00a0 Trust your timing.\u00a0 A very empowering choice in belief is:\u00a0 “I always get what I want.\u00a0 If it is not available now, there must be an excellent reason for this.”\u00a0 Beware buying into the belief, “I do not get want I want” – although it is always your choice.\u00a0 <\/strong>When you follow your excitement<\/em> in each now<\/em> moment, this leads to Positive Synchronicity <\/em>– things magically<\/strong><\/em> working out in a way that is delightfully and surprisingly pleasing.\u00a0 A lot of\u00a0letting go<\/strong> of expectations and control along with not knowing\u00a0<\/strong>into the future is required to line up with your own magic.

As I have recounted this little string of what I find delightful and pleasing synchronicities to several friends now, one of them replied that these types of things only happen to me.\u00a0 Really?\u00a0 Pity…
\nMy belief is they happen to whoever shares my belief system and follows their excitement.\u00a0 I know there are many others out there.\u00a0 Mine may sound tiny but I have full faith that I am on my path.\u00a0 <\/strong>It is unique to me.\u00a0 Everyone has their unique path so their synchronicities will match that … when they are aligned, following their excitement.\u00a0 Knowing who they truly are.<\/p>\n
