Lots of shiny objects in my inbox this a.m. :)

Thought I better get my journaling done first.  :)  Sept 1 - completely full dream night with lots of people coming to mind overnight and full inbox this a.m.  Sept is off with a kick.  

In my inbox, an application to talk to the woman behind "The In-Between Years" podcast.  Will see if she finds my story interesting.  NC friends in a CCRC sent out their blog.  I will be commenting after I finish this.  Former school #1 co worker wrote back after I sent him a "happy back to school" - he put his planned retirement off until this time next year.  Note back from ED of FEN.  I shared with her yesterday after her TGDS blog post - Was smiling when I got to the end and had to say to myself (my favorite person to converse with 😎) - "Who the leader is not everything, but it certainly can be a HUGE thing." Thank you for your year at the helm!  🎉  Onward and upward.  

So yesterday - did load of wash, headed out at 10-ish for walk (my new launch time now that swimming is over), dropped The Correspondent off at library, Shoprite for a $21.38 spent/$23.00 "saved"/17 items day (two more items I will not have to buy for awhile because of sales),  ALDI $19.85/5 items day.  Got the "compare to TIDE PODS"...hope I do not regret it, 47 tabs so I hope I like it.  I am stuck with them for almost a year with my one load a week routine.  And I told myself I would not buy nectarines again...but I could not resist with the sale.  :)  I ran into my landlady at Shoprite and she said I am quite a site with my little notebook (the one sister #6 brought home for me from the Berkshire-Hathaway stockholders annual meeting) prompting me for the sales I was there to find. She did try to talk me into the "natural" laundry sheets for washing clothes...not this year.  But they have a very nice looking web site if I ever change my mind.  Much better pricing than at Shoprite.  

Today - run dishwasher, walk, stop by library to stock up bedside table (getting hooked on Eggers' book).  6 p.m. - Live Event - Golden Girls Interview with Chip - Chip Conley talks to the 3 "Golden Girls" - Whether it's a Golden Girls–style shared rental home (a new category that is often called "Boommate Homes" and what MEA calls "SageHouses" and "ChrysalisHouses")  - A SageHouse has been created for long-term stability of a collection of women (and, sometimes, men) who want to live together for an extended period of time. Many women have been talking with their college friends about this for decades and MEA’s active alumni community, regional chapters, and Golden Girls workshops create a magnet for women to find their future housemates.  Nothing else on my paper calendar.  

Mercury in the most sensitive area of your chart will make you a bit touchy today, and with Mars in the picture as well you could say things you later wish you had not. Think before you speak and, if possible, say only nice things.

Prioritize healing as the Taurus Moon aspects Chiron and Pluto, darling Libra, even if doing so means severing ties. Relationships that have grown increasingly toxic are unlikely to improve without some distance. Romantic connections may also land on the chopping block while Mars and Saturn square off. Remember that love is supposed to be elevating, and shouldn't get in the way of your hopes and dreams. If you're hoping to salvage a dynamic that's become complicated, try setting new boundaries to see if the situation changes. Reflect on where you need to evolve once the Sun and Luna align this evening.

Money is probably on your mind now, Libra. A desire for increased financial security could force you to look for work or investments that would pay off big. Opportunities for one or both of these are likely to come through friends, perhaps someone with whom you've worked before. You're likely to accomplish what you want for now, but it's uncertain whether you'll continue on this path in the future.

Healing has been a big part of this segment of my life.  Rabbit, rabbit, rabbit.  Evolution. Keep a good thought for all that this first day of September has on the horizon.  :)  Have a good Tuesday.
