Wandering Saturday

Not that different from any other day, but Saturday usually feels more of a wander.  Dropped off latest Krueger I finished.  Left out at 10 a.m. got back at 1:30-ish. Had a call in the a.m. that family friend was going to drop off the Isaacson Elon book.  Started it last night and LOVE it.  Had email from sister #4 on her departure from airport in FL...I have not heard back from her yet. I had asked her to keep me posted on re-entry...  6:20 a.m,. Going to board soon. Had to make very last minute pick up arrangements which has been very stressful. And apparently I didn't communicate clearly about my cat care so Gracie has been alone all week. I feel terrible.  I am thinking all is fine, but I hope she fills me in today.  I did tell sister #1 about it so maybe she will get the update in her sibling calls today.  Fingers crossed.  I will see if this makes her cancel the trip we have planned to NC...

Quotes from yesterday - Arthur Brooks with Prof G:  Never got to friendship. Why marriages don't work.  Mine had no chance, but that says a mouthful for me.  Can't remember why I wrote this down... Living in the country of my heart.  But it had to do with creating a positive image of "what's next".  "Country of my heart" would definitely be a new place on the map for me.  :)  Had this in my inbox this morning from the Daily Stoic.  A new add to my reading. Today is that day many dread—the day the clocks spring forward. Yes, in the middle of the night, you lost an hour that you’ll never get back. An hour of sleep, an hour of leisure, an hour to spend with your kids. You mourn that loss of time, wondering all the ways you could’ve spent it otherwise. But isn’t it always like this? Aren’t we always looking back on our day, our week, our year and questioning where the time went? How we managed to lose so much of it without doing the things we really want to do, without becoming the person we really want to be? 

Today I will walk to Unionville.  Will send Bon Voyage note to son.  Yikes.  3 months of wandering for him.  We will see how many countries he gets to.  In the PTL category, Thursday is Massage Thursday for March!  Can't wait.  

I feel I will be spending lots of time with my nose in the ELON book.  :)

If you have been putting off a task in the hope that no one will notice you are going to be disappointed. Family members and colleagues are well aware that you are none too keen on what needs to be done but they will make you do it regardless.

Think of today as a restorative time for yourself in which you can come to a point of greater ease and comfort, Libra. Trust yourself and the people around you. Open your eyes to the reality of the situation at hand. If you're currently working through some major life changes, have faith that whatever happens will work out to your benefit.

Devote your Sunday to wellness and reclaiming organization, dear Libra, as the Pisces new moon rises in your solar sixth house. Now is the time to honor where improvements can be made without admonishing yourself or others. A softness follows you when Luna crosses Neptune this afternoon, urging you to check in with the body and relieve stress. Get to know your closest companions a little bit better as Mercury and Pluto align, deviating from typical conversations while encouraging fun and asking questions. Love fills the air as evening sweeps in and the moon enters Aries, opening your heart and spirit.

Will keep eyes open to what is on my plate to do.  :) The "right" blue U's won basketball last night!  Have a good Sunday.
