Alone again - Day 1 :)

Another "calm" pic received yesterday from a cousin. I had sent him pics from the pool party for his birthday.  Really my second cousin.  He is the youngest (79) and my mother the oldest (she would have been 104 this year) of their generation of offspring. I am thinking he and his two brothers are last men standing of that generation. His father and my grandmother were siblings.  His branch of the family inherited this cottage in NYS.  My mother inherited the house she and my father moved to in the 80's.  Again one of those "what ifs"..."when you get to the fork in the road, take it" moments in what life would have been if that was flipped or no inheritance was made. But I got this from my son yesterday on his arrival back to his current homebase - "Probably a few different versions of myself and ourselves living out different lives if there is some kind of multiverse but who knows.  I am happy that I feel like I have the best relationship with both of my parents right now and love yall both."  So that was a gift.  We are a "one of one" group in the "multiverse" we find ourselves in.  :)

Some sad news from sister #6 yesterday.  The niece who joined us at the pool party had a miscarriage. Glad we had the day we did all together on Thursday.  I think she knows she has a good cheering section.

Yesterday - slipped right back into almost routine...abbreviated walk with a nice chat with someone on the trail.  Then walked back and forth to pool.  Had meals of my usual making.  Call from cousin from the road.  She and her gentleman caller on their way to MA for the weekend.  Son did a photo drop to my picture frame of his NYC wedding and our visit.  Trying to finish my latest book about Abigail Adams and her sisters...a bit too much detail for me.  But I want to see what the WH years were like.  We will see if I stick to it.  :)

Today - walk to Unionville, pool at 12:30 p.m., Albany CA DC at 7 p.m.  Maybe East-West Coast DC at 4 p.m.  "Holiday" week is a bit open.  EOLD on Wednesday and maybe Lansing on Saturday.  I am hoping the facilitators take the day off, but we will see.  Don't need much in the food stuff area this week.  Bananas, grapes, peaches and bread might be it - but I will check Shoprite sales and then get my "staples" at ALDI.

Just because a friend or family member has a negative outlook on life does not mean you must be negative too. The world is a marvelous place and the events of the next few days will have you smiling. Hopefully others will smile with you.

It may feel as though you're being guided by unseen forces throughout the coming weeks, dear Libra. Trust your instincts as Mars moves through Gemini, and notate any recurring signs that seem to hold important messages. Passions take on a life of their own, helping you break through blocks that have left you at an impasse. These vibes are also perfect for adventurous vacations and exploring your spirituality. Avoid taking in too much information while the Sagittarius Moon and Mercury form an unbalanced aspect this evening. Put your ideas on paper once Jupiter stirs tonight, or you could struggle with sleep.

Today is a good day for you to simply get things done. Take care of those annoying tasks that have been building up for a while. You have a great opportunity to accomplish quite a bit. People are less concerned with frivolous drivel and gossip than they are with setting a plan for meeting an important goal. Contribute to this trend by getting serious about the tasks at hand.

I will hope for guidance of unseen forces and no drivel.  :)  Have a great Sunday.
