July 1, 2013 - new start on so many levels

"You won't be in the most trusting of moods today, thanks to Saturn's less than helpful influence, but don't get too suspicious or you may alienate your friends. If you can, keep yourself apart. Spend some quiet time alone."

My day will allow me to follow this lead.  I do not have a forum from which to interact with people today so sounds good.  My monthly cosmic guidance person needs one more day to post July's news so I will wait until tomorrow.  I guess I need to insulate myself on many levels.  So I will stay with that thought.

Good news from friends that they will be joining me for a weekend at the lake in a couple of weeks!

But between then and now - tending to flowers that were sent to my father's house; work #2; funeral for a family friend before I head to NH on Saturday.  I am having trouble being still right now.  I know there is no coincidence in my life so the fact that my mother died the week before I entered the first month in years where I will not be being paid to work anywhere...I usually do not take any time to process things - married on a Saturday, back to work on Sunday (I was a dorm mother so I was back in our dorm apt on Saturday night...); have a kid on Monday, go to work on Thursday;  no break in the action for divorce...I really need to put this month to good use.  Hope I get a "signal" as to what that needs to look like.

Yesterday - I took it easy.  Like Saturday - I did not get showered up until after my walk and swim.  So I took it easy in the a.m., went in to check on my father, he had made his waffle breakfast and was doing his crossword puzzle.  Then walked to the pool - but the web site was wrong as to open time so I walked back home; but ran into a long time family friend who wanted to share some stories about mother so that worked; then I headed back to the pool and had a good swim and then stopped to talk to more family friends' who were out on their patio reading the paper - including my mother's obituary - so I spent some time there.  THEN home to take a shower and get ready to head to the coast for dinner with my cousin.  Down to Sandpiper for my lobster roll and another walk.

Today is totally strange.  First day not heading to the PD for the first time in years.  One of "the boys" drove under my window on the world this a.m. to - I will hope that they will keep checking on me.

So my plan today is swing by work #2 and #3 to see if anything needs my attention.  Use the treadmill at work #2 in case the rain keeps me inside?  I am floundering to say the least.

Have a good Monday.
