Even as a little girl when I was about 7 years old…………. I remember Aunt Bobbi coming into my bedroom while the adults were talking downstairs at my grandmother’s home. I lived there with my Dad as my mother was very sick and away for many years. Aunt Bobbi told me as I played with my dolls that as I grew older I would trade my dolls for perfume and jewelry. That was so hard for me to grasp – giving up my dolls.
Later on she and Uncle Sammy gave me my first radio, and I had it on quietly in my bedroom, so that it wasn’t taken away from me.
Then when I was 10 years old my grandmother and I babysat Aunt Bobbie’s 3 children on Saturday nights so she and Uncle Sammy could have date night. By the time I was 12, I babysat alone, and spent the night, and talked to Aunt Bobbie and Uncle Sammy for many hours about how hard it was to live with Nanny, my grandmother. She just did not understand me and told me I was a very difficult child – which I believed I was. This went on for about a year, and then one evening when Aunt Bobbi came by to visit my grandmother after choir practice, I was mopping the floor and crying. She asked me what was wrong – I told her again, Nanny and I had yet another fight. Then she said to me – “would you like to come live with us”? “Yes, I would”, I said. So she went in to talk with my Grandmother. “Mother Martin – would you like us to take JoyceAnne to live with us?”
And she said: “Bobbi maybe you can do something with her”
And so a trial visit of one week was set up with Aunt Bobbi, Uncle Sammy and their 3 children. One week later I called my Dad and said – “bring over the rest of my clothes, I love it here and want to stay”.
In looking back over the years of 14 to 21 – I can honestly say ‘they were the happiest years of my life.’
Truly the world for my Aunt and Uncle was storybook! How lucky for me to live those years with a storybook family.
I was raised in my teenage years of surprises, challenges and gifts in the 50’s - with love, compassion and autonomy.
I believe I turned out as well as I did because my Aunt was also my best friend, and where that may not worked with everyone – it worked for me!
Aunt Bobbi was the greatest influence in my life – which carried over to who I have become.

Winter Solstice
In the Deep of Winter
Short days, long nights, and less sun. Rainy and dark to those of us sensitive to this time. It lasts for 3 months and would be a good time to hibernate, sleep in and rest ourselves. If we could only do it!
But we are self employed, or working on deadlines for someone else, have family responsibilities, demands on our time and attention, and holidays to think about and celebrate.
We need help to make the most of this time, and not get lost in sadness or worse yet- depression
Winter Solstice is about death to the old and then to plan for Spring to create and bring about rebirth within ourselves. What is darkest in your life? What loss or disappointment are you suffering from? Once you can identify it, name it, and own it, you can heal it.
But how do we keep our spirits up during this Winter time? You may need to add atmosphere in your settings. Candles in corners, fires in the fireplace, an animal in your lap, a book for good reading, your favorite drink next to you, and uplifting music in the background.
To get out of yourself, make the effort to meet new people. Make a decision to make someone new ‘a friend’. Send out a card to someone you haven’t seen or heard from in awhile. Call someone. Invite someone to dinner, a movie, a networking event. Invite someone into your holidays. Many are alone at this time, and it is good to be a ‘Good Samaritan’. You never know how you will touch or lift a person’s life!

There is Order in the Universe
There is order in the Universe in numbers, as all things come in, and complete in, cycles.
The cycle is in the number 9
According to Louise Hay in her Colors, Numbers and Gems book, it is like planting a garden and number 1 is ‘new beginnings’, the beginning of the cycle, like planting a garden, and number 9 is completion of the garden for that 9 year cycle.
We are now in October, a ONE month for new beginnings for next year, 2009.
Play your game BIG and move with the energy of the Universe in this very auspicious time. It will all pay off. And remember, there is ‘lead’ time to get your results, so start now with your BIG dreams, so by January you can be on the ‘receiving’ and manifesting those dreams and desires.
It is also good to know what year you are in - in your 9 year cycle.
It can be a motivating force and can give you information you would not otherwise have to make decisions.
October Special for your 'numbers' reading. Call for more information.
JoyceAnne of YES! I CAN Succeed is a Spiritual Coach and a Catalyst for Positive Change, and a Muse for assisting you with your Creativity.

FALL BEAUTY
I grew up in the northeast part of the country so Fall is my favorite season.
The smell of Fall, the colors, the crispness of air…………..
The close of summer usually comes with Indian Summer and sometimes lasts into October. It’s our last reminder of Summer fun.
We can enjoy these warm days before the cool, fresh and brisk air settles in.
Nature is magnificent and provides such a landscape for the eye. With the new fresh air we are inspired to walk surrounding neighborhoods and towns and see how people and Fall has decorated itself with its variety of color, pumpkins and pumpkin patches; such beauty! We can talk and share with others and get to know them better, as we all take advantage of being outdoors in this beautiful season before Winter and colder weather sets in.
Fall is also ‘renewal’ time.
It’s back to routine, school, learning, and schedules for all of us.
And wonderful holidays!
Halloween - creativity time, and a time to get in touch with our ‘alter’ egos.
Thanksgiving – gratitude time, giving thanks, and spending time with friends and family. Hopefully if we know of anyone who is alone during this time, we take them into our fold and share our abundance with them!
We in California have so much to be grateful for!
We have so much available to us in our weather, the beauty of the ocean and mountains, and our local landscape.
How can we express ourselves more creatively?
What is it we can do individually to assist someone who may not be as fortunate as we are?
Where can we give more of ourselves?
And who can we align our energies with to make a difference in our community?
I am a Catalyst for Positive Change and a Muse to help you develop creativity.
