Circadian rhythm :) Feel back in the saddle.

Sent this pic to sister #4 to give her a new cookie decoration "motif".  We will see what she got done for her cookies this year.  :)

Yesterday...Sister left about 9 a.m.  I felt back on schedule by my 1 p.m. DC.  Monday dinner at Abigail's was great.  Tuesday a.m. I did slip out to Shoprite to get my Christmas Eve dinner items.  Not much else.  Sister #1 had brought some food items that jazzed up my refrigerator contents.  No complaints here.  So Shoprite, sat while sister had breakfast.  Heat off! First things, first.  Went for my walk after I started dishwasher.  Post walk, started washing clothes.  Towels and sheets moved me to two loads.  1 p.m. CA DC.  Then I went into overdrive to re-establish myself back in my room.  Then 7 p.m. IOWA DC, then I jumped off there and went to the last DC DC.  Facilitator is having a baby and she needed to trim things down as to what she did with her day.  Hers was one of my very first DC's in April 2020.  Very guided meditation based but it was certainly a calm in the storm location during those early days of COVID.  Great way for me to end my day after company.  :)

Back and forth with son.  Jan 25-28 to Tarpon Springs.  First flying since 2019...Son has his car there so I thought I would take it easy and fly.  Keep good thoughts that I get that all together.  I will plan an early Spring road trip to DC and NC.  Not going to VA for Thanksgiving through off my usual November trip. Looking forward to staying at his buddies' airbnb right down the street from their restaurant in TS.  :)

No listening yesterday.  Post walk and pre CA DC I did go to BOA to cash the final estate check amount.  Not a big check but representative of the angst of sister #3 not taking care of business and money transferred to the state unclaimed money pot.  Attorney, new estate bank account - and to my knowledge with no explanation from non performing sister as to the why.  But it was also a "why" in my mind as to why sister #1/executrix did not call her cards and get non performing to perform over the 7 years of limbo...  Oh well - done and a few extra dollars to me which I sent to my son for his March trip to Europe.  

After BOA, I stopped at car place and had them check the air pressure in my tires, filled up with gas.  Now I am as ready as I can be for trip to Westerly on Sunday and back home on Monday.  

Listening to WBD as we speak, have Prof G, Random in queue.  Also need to save a couple of things for Lansing DC tonight.  EOLD noon discussion.  The Betty Brigade: Home Organizing, Moving, Downsizing & Repairs is the topic.  For Lansing, I want to share the Solstice quote I shared with son and nieces.  And the song the DC DC facilitator shared as her favorite song for going into 2024.  

Winter Solstice: A Time for Letting Go - Letting go of our need for the past to have been other than what it was. ...- Letting go of what we think we know. ...- Letting go of personal grievance. ...- Letting go of the need to control. ...- Letting go of the outcome of our actions.  And the song - Hold Yourself.

Today - walk, noon EOLD, 7 p.m. Lansing.  Clean apt.  Looking forward to firing up my incense and candles during that cleaning process.  :)  Fingers crossed that landlord has a "leftover" piece of the chocolate cake he made for his grandson's birthday...  

The most important thing today is that you make a conscious effort to rise above petty disputes. Let those you live and work with know that no matter how badly you may have fallen out in recent weeks you don’t harbor a grudge – and mean it.

Your emotions are going to be intense. There's a great deal of strength in your words. Let the fire burn red hot. The energy is contagious. Once the fire gets burning, it will continue raging for a long time. This is one of those days in which you can make important changes to your game plan. Don't be afraid of dramatic transformation.

The Aries moon pulls you toward love and harmony, dear Libra, asking you to chase that which brings you balance and joy. Unfortunately, a harsh opposition between Venus and Uranus could spoil these cosmic conditions, and unexpected expenses or power struggles threaten to trigger major frustrations. Pull back from stress as a way to recalibrate when Luna cozies up with Chiron this evening, and consider asking for help from a loved one if needed. Seeking affection will also lift the spirits, so be sure to showcase your cuddly side. Your mind moves quickly when Mars activates tonight, which could lead to restless sleep.

Feel good about the day ahead.  Will try and get my tickets lined up for the Jan trip.  It is a short hop - fly down Thursday, back home on Sunday.  First flying since Jan 2019...  Have a good Wednesday.
