Today I broke the self scan machine in Sainsburys, I never wanted to use the damn thing but there was no one on the damn tills so I was forced into it, I don't like being forced in to using/doing anything so things went a bit haywire! I also fought to use my mobile phone (I don't like them either) and had to reboot it twice and then at retinal screening the brand new scanning machine decided to have a wiggy when I had been in there :/ This happens every so often, tills and card machines, computers etc can all be affected.

Also I have run ins with none electrical things like metal rails, metal beds etc. I remember once when I was making a bed in a hospital I saw a bolt of electricity shoot out from the bed into my knee which then gave way beneath me!
I must have an electric personality or something lol.
Other weird things that have happened to me over the years are due to my high sensitivity with my senses. I remember walking into a local supermarket and standing by the freezers I could smell plastic/electrical burning. I mentioned it to a member of staff, she came over and sniffed, but she couldn't smell a thing. She went and got someone else and in the end there were a whole bunch of us stood there sniffing but I was the only one who could smell it and they began to brush me off and in the end I had no choice but to leave.
The following day I went back in and all of the freezers were off. During the night they had electrical problems with the freezer which blew the fuse and they lost all of their frozen foods! Normally when I mention these things people ignore me and look at me like I have lost the plot only to regret that decision later on.

Another thing is that I can feel changes in heat. Many times I have to check that I turned the cooker off because I am picking up heat from it only to find out that it's stone cold. When I am walking I feel sudden changes of heat like I have walked from a refrigerator into a heated room.
Sounds are another 'gift' I have. I have very sensitive hearing, dog whistles are deafening to me, and I can pick up the slightest sound which can drive me crazy and can give me bad headaches. My family still think Im more than a little crazy but they know what I'm like and they have to deal with it, even when I snap at them and tell them to put the tissue down as the sound is grating on my every nerve. Also clothes can sometimes sound noisy too...I know it sounds nuts but it's real and it can be hard to deal with.
Add to that the ability to pick up on energy and emotions and it makes my life very interesting! LOL

So anyway back to May Day/Beltane. The May Blossom is beginning to flower whilst the blackthorn blossom is beginning to go over now. The bluebells are out in force and the countryside is sprouting in colours. My elder trees are already nearly ready to flower and my apple trees are blossoming like crazy. So beautiful!
This time of year brings back memories of my Primary school when I was a kid. We used to celebrate May Day and we had a proper May pole. I remember dressing up and having flowers in my hair and I remember dancing around the pole. I can also remember that the playground was heaving with cherry blossom, lovely pink flowers that would fall and would look like butterflies. Along with that I can remember singing traditional English songs. We seem to be losing many of our indigenous customs and beliefs, we need to bring them back.
