Didn't know anyone was still out there. I will be more circumspect in my use of names.
Thanks Cindy and Anon., just thanks.
Well I am going to get Skye counseling. Catholic Skye counseling. I am grateful for another miracle.
I have been watching "Women of Grace" on ETWN the Catholic television network. It is a great show, full of valuable Christian information. The shows over the past week have been about hoarding. One of the guests was a counselor named Allison Somethingorother. She talked about affirmation therapy in relation to hoarding. I am not a hoarder but I NEEDED to hear about this affirmation therapy. This type of therapy was developed by Conrad Barr (name may be wrongish). The minute Allison started talking about it I knew it was for me. So....
Allison has developed a web site called catholictherapists.com. On this web site you can find Catholic therapists in your area. I am not Catholic. In fact my church of origin taught that all Catholics were going to hell because they were not "saved" in the method approved of by our church. I am no longer an indoctrinated twelve year old and know this teaching to be hooey. Still, I remain very Protestant. I say all that to explain the miracle. I went to the web site and typed in Wyoming. Nothing. Big surprise. I typed in "no restrictions" and poof a whole list of people popped up. Guess who was on the list, with a telephone number? I dialed the number and a voice said "This is Allison." I damn near fell off my chair.
Why did I call? Impulse? Mebbee, I am calling it God. Why did Allison answer? God. She never answers the phone. Was a fluke she answered. Anyhoo, I am working on getting our insurance sorted out so I can do Skye counseling. I am looking forward to finding the rest of the puzzle pieces to my story. Ain't God great? I watch someone on the tube and thirty minutes later I am talking to her. By-the by, the program was a rerun. She taped it a year ago.
We got new carpet in the living room and bedroom. Just in time for new dog Jonah and new cat Abigail. Both long rescue stories. Anyone want a cat? You'd be surprised at the aggressive answers I am getting in response to that question.
Thanks for still reading. Love Lynn

I still read, but haven't checked in a while. Sometimes I walk to the Cathedral on my lunch hour and sit in the back and read the Daily Missal and pray. I am not Catholic but my great aunts were nuns. I figure part of my dna is Catholic. I meditate in the Cathedral and I feel at peace. Hope to hear more about the the therapy. Sounds perfect. Glad to hear from you. I have been MIA myself.
all of our dna is probably catholic because most/all of the later churches originally spun off that one at some fork in the tree . . .
I only check in every once in a while, because it is sad to see the same old post dates when I check in too often.
I was glad to see you posted.
