Friends: Please check your emails and see if you have received an email from
silvia@beeh**py.net
with the following content (Sorry, it took so long to get this together...):
Subject line: Humor me (Silvia Maurer)
1. If you received this email twice – let me know. May have gotten side-tracked. Blame my cats.
2. If you do NOT want monthly health info and recap from Bee Hempy/Silvia Maurer – let me know. If there is a person, who can’t stand mass emails where memory fails to have ever signed up for, it’s me. Only positive vibes go out from my side, sure don’t want to “negative vibe”-annoy anyone with unwanted emails.
3. If you received this email after YEARS/DECADES of knowing me and can’t for the heck of it remember where you know me from (happened to me, while composing this email list), here are some possibilities:
a. Germany: Gymnasium Kronach, Bamberg/Giessen Universität, Freunde/friends, Motorradfreunde/biker crowd, Familienangehörige/family, Nachbarn/neighbors
b. USA: Colorado State University, friends, family, neighbors
c. Army: Colorado, Germany, Wisconsin
d. Previous (unsuccessful or unpaid, insert eye roll and face palm here, please) career paths: Doner food stand attendant, Waitress at Zinser (crazy poet bar), Taxi company switch board chaos starter (“Oh! You’ve been waiting for an hour on main street of THAT town?”), Headstart instructor (Foreign Language Instructor for US Soldiers), nursing home attendant, Swing ‘n Slide office assistant, Water Softener Sales Rep (never sold even ONE unit), Family Support Group Leader, Walmart (jewelry department/CO; Master donut baker/WI), Challenge Academy case manager, First Command Financial Planner (sorry, there was no previous contact, but there was a five-year do not contact clause and then blame my memory/priorities), Dairy milker and p**p scraper (THAT was actually fun and TOTALLY successful!), carpenter, trainer for emergency scenarios, telephonic interviewer for long-term-care insurance, renovator of our house (STILL in progress – eye roll upper left – will it ever get done?), copyeditor/translator of 27 romance novels, political activist (never been happier than after my decision to quit THOSE unnecessary and predominantly negative vibes! Immediate community ONLY and that feels AWESOME and surprisingly liberating!) There may be more careers, actually… if you catch me forgetting one, please remind me.
e. Current (and totally fulfilling) career path: h**p farmer, Bee Hempy owner, CBD product manufacturer, naturopath, bio-field scanner, German New Medicine practitioner, MOCHA meeting host.
So your email answer could look something like this, accompanied by a happy heart-jump and high pitched squeek: “OMG! Heyyyyyy! Sooooo good to hear from you! We know each other from … in ….” Should THAT happen, you will get an email from me with mirroring enthusiasm and a quick update of how my path has led me here and why. You can also look me up on beeh**py.net
Or it could look something like this: “No idea, who the eff you are, don’t bother me any further.” Or: “Never liked you to begin with, don’t bother me any further.” Should THAT happen, please accept my apologies in advance and you will be immediately removed from my email list. My wishes for an eternally h**py and successful future are with you – and please! Check your attitude, will you? Remember that positive thoughts will attract positive events in your life...
Sooooooo curious what responses will come back!
In the meantime, avoid toxins and bee h**py!
Silvia
