Tamara -- This is too cool. I'm not a big believer in new age stuff myself, but I am totally willing to accept that there may be forces at work in nature that respond to nontraditional methods such as Laura's. And in any case, unless someone's allergic to sage or whatever the particular substance is for the job at hand, it couldn't hurt! LOL re the harpie! Diane R.

I WISH I had an ACTUAL answer tho for you. You are in my prayers, as are your cats. Rest assured I'm certain, whatever is happening, isn't your fault. When you deal with alot of animals, the odds will catch up with you sooner or later. I only have one suggestion, kinda a last ditch: "what-the-hell-it-might-not-help, -but -it -can't- hurt -thing". Now mind you, I'm REALLY NOT a new-age-y type person, but a young girl I shared an office with once was. Our team was having a HUGE run of bad-luck...misplaced paper work, unexplained dropped projects & contracts, dead beat clients, poor communication between the project manager and the prototypers, continual run of illness-non-stop and a project manager who stalked around screaming at people like a skitzoid-harpie. Laura brought dry sage in one day, set it lightly smoldering (just so it smoked-no flame) and starting from the far windowless side of the office outlined the walls, pushing forward towards the door like she was moving a solid invisible wall. ("Chases away bad vibes/spirits" was her explanation, to which I remember thinkin' "ok, SHE'S nuts!") Once she moved the sage to the door, ("pushing everything bad out"), she drew an "x" across the door frame, tampered the smoke and pinned the sage above the door jamb. Not five minutes later, our Harpie-isc manager comes flying into the common area outside our office, in a rage heading our way, turns like she's bee-lining it into yell at us, and I SWEAR, she stopped dead in her tracks at the door frame, looked around all confused, muttered something along the lines of not remembering why she had come to our office, and skulked away! We all started roaring with laughter, I apologized to Laura, who repeated her "cleansing" of our office whenever things started to go bad...and Ms. Harpie NEVER stepped foot into our office again. Laura's advice to me: "When the unexplainable is raining down on you, try remedies that can't be explained." Ok, now you all think I'm nuts, BUT, I've tried it from time to time, outside of work, and it, for a reason known only to God, seems to work.
