Eating late in the day...disastrous. :)

Have to smile.  Eating late afternoon versus early evening makes quite a difference to my sleep.  Oh well.  Worth it to have had the visit with former school #2 boss.  I don't know what it is about me, but the conversation wandered to her 92 yr old dad in memory care and how he and my former boss' step mom (her mom died when she was in college) are facing running out of money.  $2,500 a month for step mom each month at the place they live, $13,000 for father.  We will see where the journey takes them, but of course I talked about leaving time on the table, "5 minutes to midnight" as to making decisions when FIRST diagnosed with any cognitive impairment.  But the balance of the conversation was not as dire but when people get together - boss is a decade younger than I am but dealing with her dad, me at an age where wishes need to be shouted from the mountain top. Maybe it was not the time of my eating that led to my restless sleep night.  :) 

But other than that - yesterday - Shoprite - $18.74/$5.61.  Did not need much after last weeks overstock. Listened to David Friedberg and Adam Carolla very interesting.  Dead Talks - David Ferrigio and George Carlin's daughter. Sent the link to my son. Need to explore her work. MORE interesting. Walked. CA DC, SC DC, dinner.  Today EOLD, Lansing DC.  Family friend texted me after her surgery.  I will be walking alone today.  Need to swing by and restock my bedside table with books - Monday holiday coming up. :) 

A family situation that has been causing you problems can easily be resolved today IF you are willing to meet others halfway. You may think you have given enough ground already but there is still more you can do to win others round.

Mercury and Jupiter face off overhead, dear Libra, pushing you to address emotional blocks. Stifling your voice to keep the peace can't be sustained long-term, and failing to express your thoughts and feelings will cause them to multiply and spill over with profound intensity. Offering solutions to resolve the issues at hand might seem like a good idea when the Sagittarius Moon aspects the Nodes of Fate this afternoon. Unfortunately, loved ones will be resistant to your suggestions if they don't sound like collaborative efforts. Clean the slate with a healthy, home-cooked meal once Venus aligns with Saturn tonight.

Something may be troubling a family member, Libra, and this person doesn't seem inclined to talk about it. Your intuition seems to be temporarily blocked, so you can't figure it out for yourself. Don't try; it's probably buried too deeply within the other person. Make it clear that you're there if needed and then allow this person to go his or her own way. Don't let this situation cause you to doubt their need and respect for you.

Weather will be milder and cloudy...colder as the week progresses.  Will enjoy what is in front of me.  Let life come to me today.  Have a good Wednesday.
