Babysitting Wednesday

Last Wednesday was parade practice, yesterday was family friend/grandmother had work to do at the Town Hall, so buddy and I walked the streets downtown from 9:30 a.m. to 11:30 a.m.  Then back to apt for the EOLD.  If I had followed my energy, I would have booked a mover to get me to Kalamazoo MI.  The speaker yesterday was Brent Harris.  He spoke of his work at Kalamazoo Institute of Art.  Also his "under construction" work with   The Art of Life and Death. .   If I heard correctly, his wife works at Kleinstuck Preserve center - part of Western Michigan.  

Brent Harris is an artist, educator and end of life doula whose practice utilizes nature based reflection and creativity to understand and honor our cycles of living and dying. He hails from Kalamazoo, Michigan, and you can hear him speak on YouTube and learn more about him on his website. A passionate educator and creative, Brent offers rites of passage mentoring to facilitate a new approach for those seeking end of life counseling and as a guide for helping clients transition through life’s thresholds of change.  How do we live, so we may fully become our dying? How do we accept our dying that we may fully embrace our living?

Needed another short walk after that talk.  So moved.  So grateful to the EOLD group  :)  

Today call Liberty Bank about closing account after I use up the last of my HSA funds at the dentist next week.  Cape Cod DC group discussion tonight - Join us as we welcome back Dr. Roger Kligler for a talk about Medical Aid in Dying (MAiD) and how he came to support the option for terminally ill, mentally capable adults to receive a prescription from their physicians to self-ingest and die peacefully in their sleep. A bill permitting this recently advanced out of two legislative committees.  NY, MA, DE are all still moving through this legislative process.  For profit hospices, medical industrial complex, religion - powerful lobbies.  As people who really need the option, suffer and die as they fight for the option.  

Got a reminder from PD buddy when he sent his word work this a.m. that the Special Olympics Torch Run is today.  I will plan to be at Gallery on the Green to see him and other police people run by.  Glad he reminded me.  

Cosmic activity in the wealth area of your chart will improve your cashflow situation over the next few days but could also encourage you to spend any extra you make the moment you lay your hands on it. A little self-discipline will go a long way.

You may feel called to revamp your image, spiritual outlook, and creative style between now and June 3, lovely Libra, as Jupiter and Pluto form a supportive trine. This cosmic climate offers growth for all who lean into change, though you should also be mindful to focus on personal goals and expansion. Meanwhile, the Pisces quarter moon rises overhead, reminding you to take care of yourself while chasing big dreams. Harness these vibes by staying organized and checking in with your physical needs often. Unexpected conversations could deepen important relationships later tonight when Mercury and Uranus unite in our skies.

Unexpected events may crop up and nudge you painfully, Libra. You could get the feeling that these thorns are poking out of nowhere simply to annoy you. Maintain a stable attitude and consider adding unconventional aspects to your daily routine. Today's crazy whirlwind of activity could disrupt your emotions a bit. Don't get frustrated by things you can't control? it's already a long list. Best not to dwell on it.

Waiting for the rain to stop but do love the sound of the pitter patter with windows open.  Have a good Thursday.
