Last swim day of season :(

As I shared with the swimming ladies yesterday - they are off to Music Mountain today so they will miss today.  Feels right that I will close out the season solita. :)  Shared with them post swim yesterday a timely article from NYT.

The part that caught my eye.    Thank you for letting me be a part of the Summer magic under the canopy.    

The Water Cure
Whether you swim furiously or float motionless, being in the water is a magical feeling.

“Everything you have to do to get to the point of actually doing it is a hassle,” a friend groused to me recently as I extolled the virtues of swimming. I get it. If you don’t live close to a body of water, hauling yourself and your brood to the shore with all the attendant gear can be a massive hassle, like trekking the Oregon Trail. But once you arrive, once you’re in the water, is there anything so magical, so ecstatically right as floating there, your body suspended? The sun may beat down, but you’re comfortably submerged. You’re a cool and weightless mer-creature, returned to the primordial soup that formed you.

Now on to Autumn magic.  New England and its seasons wear me out.

So that sets the tone for today.  Walk to Unionville.  Pool.  East/West DC 4 p.m. and Albany CA DC 7 p.m. 

Yesterday - I did my Friday reservoir route.  Wasn't going to walk to pool but did.  I am getting a manic with the close of season.  Glad this week I have a lot of virtual input.  See if I hear what I need to hear to find my "Autumn magic".  

Sister #1's gentleman caller sent a pic of my sister driving the new Jaguar.  Will see how that goes when she does her sibling call today.  Rest of family will begin gathering on the Cape for the Labor Day to Oct 8 time frame when sister #3 and sister #1 do their summer month long rentals.  I pass on that.  Nothing is drawing me to the Cape the last few years.  Sister #6 lives there.  Sister #4 will be gathering at the home of one her college buddies.  

Speak up and let loved ones know why you are less than happy with recent events. If you keep your feelings to yourself they will assume that everything is fine and carry on doing the things that annoy you. Don’t shout, but don’t stay silent either.

Your notoriety grows as the Virgo Moon and Jupiter align, dear Libra, though you may not be fully aware of these developments. Work for your desires, operate with dignity, and wait for success to grow. A certain level of mystery will pique the interest of notable figures, so be mindful of how much you reveal when sharing ideas or visions. Recognize routines that aren't serving your best interests while the nodes of fate stir, improving your habits to increase energy and clarity. Stay on your toes once the sun and Pluto form an unbalanced aspect later today, especially when dealing with peers who are prone to jealousy or sabotage.

Some facts that you may need for certain projects might prove elusive today, Libra. No matter what website or periodical you consult, you'll probably come across some interesting stuff but not exactly what you're looking for. If the task isn't urgent, it might be a good idea to put it off for a bit. Otherwise you'll spend too much time looking for the impossible.

Spent some time with this line - Work for your desires, operate with dignity, and wait for success to grow. (insert praying hands emoji!)  The Findery has a soft re-opening yesterday at one of my landlord's retail spaces.  I am completely taken with The Home Place. I never buy anything, but I hope others will.  Have a great Sunday.
