Tarot card readings….How accurate are they?
The experience of reading Tarot cards and gathering accurate details about the life of
people is truly a powerful one. For this reason, the practice of Tarot reading is well re-
spected by most people.
Reading someone’s Tarot is a bit like forecasting the weather. There are plenty of
signs, but they are all subject to change. It’s up to the reader to interpret the most
likely results or meanings. Tarot Cards are only about 70-80% accurate and you
should avoid anyone who claims to be 100%. Cards can be misinterpreted. The psy-
chic connection between reader and seeker might not be strong enough. The practice
requires the full engagement and willingness from the seeker.
During readings, the seeker asks a question and their subconscious selects the cards
that represent the answer. The reader’s responsibility is to interpret those messages
based on the psychic data he receives from the seeker.
Problems can arise for a number of reasons. The seeker may already have reached a
conclusion to their predicament or the question they ask might be too detailed for the
cards to have room to answer satisfactorily. In addition, they might already have
formed an opinion about the answer or they might be framing the question in a nega-
tive light. All of these factors can impact on a reading’s accuracy.
Most readers are non-judgmental, sympathetic and empathetic but present anyone
who is overly negative, aggressive or simply isn’t taking things seriously, then these
can all impact on the reader’s ability to make a connection.
The role of the psychic isn’t to predict the future, but to help you gain an overview of
your own character and your spiritual development. Using this data, the psychic can-
not predict what will happen, but can say what is likely to happen if you follow a par-
ticular course of action. For example, those who constantly fear failure are likely to
continue to hamper their own chances of success, until the problem is highlighted and
they take steps to rectify it.
You can help improve the accuracy of a reading by going prepared to be honest, open
and show the necessary respect. A reader is far more likely to engage with you on a
psychic level if you drop your defenses and let them in.

Happy Thanksgiving!
Happy Thanksgiving from all of us at Mountainview Residence & Terrace. Please note
all activities will not run on Thanksgiving Monday. Independent activities will still run.
Wishing everyone a warm and wonderful thanksgiving filled with family
& friends.
NURSES CORNER: INFLUENZA VACCINE FLU CLINIC
It’s that time of year again…
Like every year our flu clinic will be a one day event avail-
able in the Residence café and Terrace café. This day will
be posted later in October when the vaccine becomes
available. This is open to all staff, volunteers and residents. We ask that if your health
card information has changed to please inform your nursing staff right away so we
can have everything ready the day of the clinic. (This is a very busy day!). If we do not
have your health card number or the last letters have changed please provide it to us
as soon as possible.
It is Mountainview Residence policy that all staff and residents get their flu shot. If you
cannot attend on our flu clinic day please speak with the nurse to plan another day. If
you get your flu shot at a pharmacy or your doctors office we must have a confirma-
tion card stating you had it done and signed by a health care professional. Thank you
and wishing us all a healthy and safe “FLU” season!
Eyecare Express
A friendly reminder that Eyecare Express will be coming to Mountainview on October
11th from 10:00 am—3:00 pm to perform eye exams. Eye exams are covered once a
year by OHIP. Please make an appointment at the front
desk if you are interested in this service. Eyecare express
will be bringing a wide selection of designer and affordable
eyeglasses to try on for purchase. Hope to see you there!

Shirley & Sheba
It is with great sadness we announce the passing of Sheba the therapy dog. Many
residents have enjoyed her visits over the past years. We offer our sympathy and sup-
port to Shirley at this time. Shirley has since adopted another dog named Pepper.
They will be in Thursdays at the usual time. Keep an eye out for our new furry friend.
Halloween Candy Collection
Mountainview will be open for trick or treaters on Halloween. We are collecting treats
(or funds to purchase treats) for our trick our treaters! If you have something you wish
to donate please drop it off with Nicole or Rachelle in the activity room. Family mem-
bers are also invited to trick or treat with us from 5:30-6:30. Please extend the invita-
tion to your loved ones. Looking forward to see all of the fantastic and unusual cos-
tumes again this year! BOO!
Halloween
Thursday October 31st we will be having our Halloween bash at 5:00 with entertain-
ment to follow. We invite all residents and staff to dress up for this occasion. There will
be loads of prizes for the best/most unique costumes of the day! If you need assis-
tance with your costume we do have some items you may borrow for the event. We
kindly ask to please return any borrowed costume pieces no later than November 1st.
This year we have a special treat going on during Halloween day. Tarrot
card readings will be available on Oct 31st at 2:00. Sign up sheet will be
posted in the activity room. Come join the fun, and have your most inner questions
answered. Remember from the front page to come with an open mind and willingness
for best results. Haha!
The Great Pumpkin Arrival
As we know from previous years, Allison’s Farm Market has been sold. Despite this
news, last year Bob Allison was able to provide us at Mountainview with the biggest
pumpkin in town, weighing in at over a whopping 600 lbs! The pumpkin is driven
across town by Bob himself on a tractor! What a sight to see! We look
forward to the arrival and hosting of the great pumpkin each
year...and this year will be no different !! Bob has done it again. Join
us in the café for the arrival of the great pumpkin the morning of Octo-
ber 25th! The pumpkin will be on display in the activity for everyone to
view and sign for the remainder of the season.

FAMILY BAR-B-QUE MEMORIES
Our resident family BBQ was a great success. A wonderful day spent with family,
friends, and good food. A great opportunity to meet some new friends, and share
laughs. It takes a lot of time and planning to put together such a large scale event.
Thank you to everyone who helped to make this day such a joyful occasion. A big
thank-you to everyone who purchased raffle tickets in support of the Walk for the
Georgetown Hospital. Together we raised $326.00 on $2.00 tickets! Congratulations
to: Terrace Resident Mr. Gord Inglis: The winner of the Coffee Time basket!

Highlights of September
Our annual corn roast was enjoyed by
many residents. What a great way to send
off the summer months and celebrate On-
tario produce at it’s best. For all the those
corn lovers out there:
What did the corn say when he got compli-
mented?
Answer: “Aww, shucks!”
This September Mountainview welcomed Halloween Word Scramble
the council candidates for ward 3 to hold
discussions. Pictured above: Randy Ker- Can you guess these Halloween ?

You won’t believe these thanksgiving blunders!
Some brave souls wrote in to share their stories of thanksgiving nightmares. Yes,
these actually happened...I, for one, am thankful I didn't get the invite!
“I was not familiar with my friend’s oven ... I accidently turned the self
cleaning oven on with the turkey inside”
“My cousin didn't realize you had to thaw the turkey, and dinner was served after mid-
night instead of in the afternoon.”
"Every year since I can remember, on Thanksgiving day, my mother wakes me up by
dangling the uncooked turkey over my head. I am not joking."
"One year my dad flipped out on my sister for adding cheese to the mashed potatoes
to the point where he locked himself in his room for the majority of the afternoon."
“My Dad and uncle tried deep frying a turkey, very drunkenly. They forgot about it. The
oil went up in flames, and so did the side of my uncle's house!”
"In the span of four hours, my mom went into labor, the turkey caught fire, the dish-
washer flooded the entire kitchen, and the person making the stuffing didn't know you
were supposed to cook the sausage before putting it into the stuffing, so we all ate
raw meat."
And the award for worst thanksgiving error goes to...
“We found one of our cats inside of the Thanksgiving turkey one
year. We heard rattling from the kitchen, and when we looked, the
turkey was jiggling and meowing. No leftovers that year." ...YIKES!

The Annual Family BBQ was a
huge success, as always. It is
evident by the smiles. Thank you
to our dedicated staff for all the
hard work put into this event!
We look forward to
celebrating October,
National Apple Month.
Did you know that Ontario
has grown on average over
250 million pounds of corn
since 2008. Residents en-
joyed some juicy ears re-
cent at our Corn Roast.
Nine week old puppy Sadie joined us for an afternoon.
How exciting, starting pet therapy at such a young age is
perfect! .
