Now that we've moved
from the lofty heights of Gjøra to the centre of the sprawling
metropolis that is Sunndalsøra, spring has taken me by surprise!
Usually, I would be cursing that there is never going to be enough
time for my vegetables to grow before harvesting. Now, I'm thinking
damn it, I should have had my squash and carrots in the ground
already! Nature has beaten me to it again!
Thankfully, I am
getting more time at home these days, less travelling around the
country and so there is time enough to play at being the gardener.
It's not that I don't like travelling around Norway, but what with
four children, three horses, a wife and a dog, my time is much better
spent closer to home.
Pleasantly, it does
allow me to work in a very effective way – e-mail readings. There
is something to be said for being able to shut the world out, connect
with a client and write a reading in the comfort of my own office
(steaming bowl of lady grey to the left). There is such a benefit to
having a reading presented to you in black and white, or blue and
white . . . or green and white, depending on what mood I'm in. It
allows clients to be able to read it again and again, rather than
having to remember what what said, face to face.
Sticking to the
memory of spring, here at the international headquarters of Simon
Milton-Jones Healer and Medium, we are offering e-mail readings at
half price (500kr). Other than arguing with Mother Nature about when
the squash seeds should have been planted, spring is usually a time
of renewed vigour, stamping your feet into the ground and making big
decisions. There is something about it all that gives us a sense of
empowerment, optimism and a feeling that things are on their way up.
So, for me, this
spring, I plan on doing more and more e-mail readings, not just so I
will have time closer to home but also because it's a nice way of
connecting with my clients and giving them something personal and
memorable. As of writing this blog, I still have no seeds in the
ground but I do have a very nice 40 year old gressløk plant (chives)
that is declaring itself the supreme winner of all things coming
early this year. Impressive.
