Productive day :)

I make everything more dramatic than most would.  But I got a retirement account stuff realigned yesterday with angst.  But I am content with the results - as of yesterday.  :)  I filled my day with morning walk with family friend.  She is no longer caregiving for grandson so we did 5 miles just the two of us.  She gave me the travel report of her trip to England with her daughter.  Talked about house her daughter has under contract.  Great walk.  Noon EOLD discussion.  Swim at 3:30 p.m.  Phone calls in between with money vendors.  Whew that is over.  Got in the car...and went to ALDI yesterday.  Could not look away from the $.99/lb grapes and the $1.89 per bucket strawberries. Stopped on the way home to get the air checked in my tires.  Will have an up and down to Old Lyme on Saturday.  :)  Car is falling apart but I get as prepared as I can for each journey.  Instead of one a week in the car, swimming puts me in the car each day.  I could walk, but I did that one summer and the relaxation of the swim was counteracted by the walk up and back...ahhhh, my overthinking things.  Yesterday - car twice in one day!  :)  Sent an email to sister #1 giving her my walk and swim schedule for the day.  Will move out of my room and get it set up for sister and move my stuff into my office for tonight.  

Local news focused on the classmates of those first graders killed at Sandy Hook graduated from high school last night...  Gave me pause.  

Finished the day "in Lansing".  Great death cafe.  Lots of tears for me.  A younger person joined our group for the first time from England.  He napped and woke up at midnight his time to tune in.  He is 4 months out of the death of his son who was 3 days old when he died.  The great sadness of his sharing led to a wonderful and uplifting conversation over that 90 minutes.  What a gift.  Most in the room have been together now for years.  Another gift.  One of the participants grounds me whenever she is able to come to the room.  Another gift.  

Dinner tonight so I will need to figure out a snack pre swimming to get me through to an evening meal.  Overthinking...  :)  

The money work this week has me mad at myself for not doing things differently over the years...but I am where I am and am who I am.  As I shared last night in the DC - I just need to figure out the next step forward.  Good old Buddha - “The past is already gone, the future is not yet here. There's only one moment for you to live, and that is the present moment”  I let "some" days slip away.  :)  Some = decades.  Oh well.  I truly did the best I could in my way.  :)

The Sun in the sympathetic sign of Gemini has made you hugely dynamic of late but because the cosmic picture starts to change over the next few days you cannot afford to be complacent. Whatever your dream may be, make it happen right now.

Gentle vibes flow as Mercury and Chiron share a sweet exchange, Libra, bringing an elevating softness to your relationships and connection with the divine. Watch out for escapism when the Virgo moon opposes Saturn this afternoon, especially if you have tasks that need your attention. Your mind spreads in multiple directions later tonight when Luna squares off with Mercury and the sun, marking the ideal time to explore spiritually or creatively in private. Do something to warm the spirit before heading to bed, being mindful to thank yourself and your higher power for showing up each day to chase dreams.

Over the last few weeks you've been working hard so you don't have to worry about your finances, Libra. Try to forget your problems, and especially avoid focusing on and talking about money today. Do what you feel like doing. You're probably already aware that you need to take care of yourself from time to time. Don't neglect your health.

Yowser as to my cosmic guidance today.  I will turn away from my "to do" list type activity of the last few days but stay focused on the dream work.  I am thinking about being kind to myself as I think about the bridal shower and all about it that saddens me... I will protect myself with the cosmic shift.  

Have a good Thursday.
