Ah boy...there is this woman who sort of latched onto me. She comes to my shop 2 or 3 days a week. She knows I can't pay her but she still comes in. she dusts a little and sometimes cleans my coffeemaker. Mostly she sits and plays a game or watches something on her ipad. She gave me "holy anointed oil" about a year ago to sprinkle around my shop and put in bath water. I asked her what makes it holy and she said, the apostle blessed it. She goes to a church that has...I don't know, less than 10 people. They call the preacher "the apostle." She is nice enough i guess. She does have unforgiveness issues. She can be a bit snippy and holds grudges. She doesn't seem to be helped by her church.
Yesterday, this woman came in. She comes in every few months. The first time was about a year and a half ago, when the shop was not mine but I watched it in exchange for being able to bring in some of my own pieces to sell. So she comes in and asks if I am the owner, I say, no. She asks for the phone # of the owner and I ask what it's in regard to. She says the Holy Spirit gave her something to tell the owner. I take her # to give to the owner. Later, I asked the owner if she called the called the woman. She says, yes, and she told me I was going to be wealthy and she invited me to her church and I'm going to go.
so now that I own the shop, this woman comes in every few months. She came in yesterday with a man she was promoting and the woman who has latched onto me was there. They began talking and the man was rattling off all this absurd nonsense about numbers and then he jumped to prayer shawls and how if they don't have blue piping, they are useless and will not work. This woman was mesmerized and said how she wanted a prayer shawl so badly. At some point he began yelling loudly in tongues. Then they invited this woman to their church and she is going to go. They invited me too and I said no thank you.
I said, after they left, that the man was speaking nonsense, and she said, well, when someone speaks tongues over you, it's just for you, so I understand that it would not make sense to you.
If they come back, I'm chasing them out and I don't care if it's rude. They are going to soak that old lady. At the very least, for a stupid prayer shawl with blue piping.
I sit and talk with her often. She comes in sometimes after church and talks about how they were on the floor for hours and couldn't get up and how good she feels. Then she proceeds to how upset she is with this or that person for something they did or said. It's all very ridiculous and I have tried to...talk with her about it but she's closed off. I think I need to tell her to go away.
Oh, and yesterday when He was loudly shouting his jibberish, a regular customer came in and whispered to me in the other side of the shop, are those customers? I whispered back no, I don't know who they are, just some weird people. He said, I'll see you later and left.
I'm angry at myself for not chasing them out. I mean, it didn't go on for a long time. They had her hooked and At that point they were going to move on to the next shill, of course. But I should have chased them out and told them not to return.
I'm telling you, I couldn't make this stuff up if I tried!
