daily musings of a vintage addict * I am totally obsessed with all things vintage * trying to keep up with my past...and sometimes ordinary everyday life

: Name: Miss Robyn; Location: Katoomba, NSW, Australia

here I am in a little cottage that evokes the energies of my ancestral lands - a cottage on the moors of Cornwall, or on the cliff tops of Ireland or Scotland. It has a hearth. I am a hedge witch {of sorts}. I wear upcycled clothes, patchouli oil and Redback boots. I am a gypsy; an eccentric and a mystic [I often live with a foot in two worlds]. I serve my guests, tea from an old silver teapot. I love Vervain, yarrow, chamomile & mint. Star watcher and Moon gazer. story cloth weaver. keeper of family dreams and wishes. good friend and creator of life. herbal tea drinker and potion maker.

on being vague and absent

I wasn't going to post this here - but as I have received a few emails from some of you, wondering where I was and how I am - I thought I would just let you know I am here & fine. Just this past week, I have been pre-occupied with yet another breast lump. I kinda freaked and lost it and retreated into my shell, worrying about no one else but ME. I just didn't have time for a breast lump and all that went with it. So I gave it to my angels & faeries and of course God and got on with doing my part - I called my Dr, who got me in there and then. She felt it too so she ordered a mammogram and ultrasound and the dreaded biopsy if needed. I had my mammo and ultrasound yesterday and guess what? the lump had disappeared. Yes, gone. They couldn't find it. Now I don't know if that was a good thing because they did an ultrasound that took twice as long to make sure it wasn't lurking somewhere, but it was no where to be seen. hmmmmm -

melissa said...: You know, miracles happen and we really shouldn't be surprised when the Lord answers our prayers. I say give Him the credit.

Enjoy the blessing, sweet girl. Sounds like you're okay, and for that, I'm grateful!; 11:19 am
Rosa said...: Praise the Lord, angels and faeries! Hurrah! (Sending more your way, just to be on the safe side!); 11:37 am
teacherarbc said...: Stay strong...keep your faith!!!; 1:19 pm
Cookie said...: So happy to know that everything is okay with you dear Robyn. Try not to worry so !! Hugsssss; 1:21 pm
Unknown said...: I believe in miracles too. There's obviously more important things for you to be doing, dear Ms Robyn, than attending to a pesky lump. Make the most of each day.

Blessings, bliss and healing; 4:20 pm
Gail said...: Nicole here... I am using Mum's puter... God has more important things in mind for you my dearest. Your prayers surely were answered it seems.. though I am a little bit suspicious all the same.. I am in two minds you could say. Are they keeping a close eye on you? Just in case another turns up? I am taking Pop to the surgeon tomorrow to start the ball rolling for his cancer operation. I will say extra prayers for you both tonight.. Well, I love you both so dearly.. hugs xox; 6:40 pm
Boxwood Cottage said...: Oh my Robyn I can imagine what a shock that was for you and your system! You don't deserve to go through all this again! No way! I'm so so relieved to read that it has disappeared again! Take your time to recover from that shock and don't worry about us. We're always here waiting for you!
Bless you and big hugs to you xox; 8:52 pm
mrspao said...: I'm so sorry to hear that you've had such a scare.; 4:04 am
Tongue in Cheek Antiques said...: Robyn!!!!! I can imagine the burno ftears that hit your eyes when you felt that lump! I can imagine the ache in your heart and the anger the made you want to scream NO! NO!
Cancer is something we run against and hope to God it never catches us!!
My dear Robyn one minute of worrying about that lump was hell i'm sure!
Thank God you are okay! My every prayer is with you!
Cancer free now tomorrow and forever is my prayer for you dear heart!!; 5:44 am
Alice said...: Dear Robyn - let us hope it was just one of those inexplicable things that come and GO, and hopefully stay gone. Doesn't stop a girl worrying at the time though, does it?

May God bless you and keep you in good health for many, many years to come.; 6:58 am
~Nancy~ said...: So sorry and know that you must have felt terrified! What are we going to do with you and Alison? It seems she has had one thing after another and each and evey time she is ill, you are ill as well. Are you two cleaning too much? :-) (That was a funny, not a serious thing.)
The power of prayer is awesome! So glad you had a miracle or healing or whatever one wants to call it. Not too sure about fairies having anything to do with it but am so happy for you! Our God is truly loving. Take care of yourself!!; 10:55 pm
Gina E. said...: Ooooeer Robyn, you poor girl...what a nasty discovery. I'm glad to hear it didn't stay around though. Best wishes for a peaceful and happy Easter.
Hugs from Gina
