Last day of a quiet week

Started my day today at 3:33 a.m.  Will see what action I am drawn to.  I have mixed feeling about the week ahead, but today I will enjoy the quiet but with a chicken pot pie dinner at family friend's church with one of the swimming ladies.  Sorry I mentioned it when I thought there would be a quilt raffle included in the event...but now just pie which is fine with me but I would have not mentioned it to the swimming ladies without the quilt piece...oh well.  Luckily I have a LA DC at 6:30 p.m. so it will be "early bird special" timing - 4:30 p.m. and eat and get home.

Yesterday - watched my Thursday shows.  Walked.  Mettle webinar.  Got a dry walk in before a very wet afternoon.  :)  Talked to sister #6.  She is still coming up next Saturday as of yesterday.  She did fall again this week...  Told her that she might want to slow it down but her schedule for weekend of Oct 24 does not reflect any "slow".  Friday after work or Saturday a.m. - 3 hr drive to my town, go to town event where family friend is being honored, Saturday night or Sunday a.m. drive to her daughter an hour away, get on train, to to NYC for a play and then Sunday night drive 3 hours back home...  Will see if that plan sticks.  Luckily with her fall, she did not break her fall with the wrist she broke and had to have surgery on earlier this year...Yikes. 

Today - watch Boston Blue.  Embarrassed to say I watch it but it's like a car wreck, can't look away.  Walk, Chicken pot pie.  LA DC.  Enjoying my latest book - The Original - A Novel - By Priya Parmar.  Novel, nonfiction?  I am having trouble with where this book came from, but am still enjoying it.  

Sounds like TX/NM friend will be staying in the condo of a family friend.  That works out well with separate spaces, but close enough.  She arrives Wed night. We will go to beach on Thursday for a walk on the beach and seafood lunch, Boston area on Monday, she heads back home on Tuesday.  Will see what fills in the gaps.  You know I am happy with nothing much.  Sister #6 and #4's arrivals and departures center around Friday or Saturday arrivals, Saturday or Sunday departures.  They will both stay here if they stay.  I will stay calm and carry on between now and Wednesday p.m.  

You have too many options to choose from and your priority this weekend must be to narrow them down to the few that will work best for you personally. If you’ve got a dozen projects on the go, you may end up finishing none of them.

Loved ones may seem mopey or distant this morning, darling Libra, due to a harsh square between the Capricorn Moon and Saturn. Show compassion and offer up support, but know your limits when it comes to nurturing others. If someone would rather wallow in their misery than accept love and advice, you'll need to respect their wishes. Luckily, a more composed energy takes hold as the hours pass, and people will begin to act like their usual selves. Break bread with your closest companions from your cozy home while Luna and Mercury form a soft sextile this evening. 

Your unique ability to communicate with many different groups and personalities will be extremely important today to maintaining a bridge between warring camps, Libra. Keep things moving and try not to let the situation stagnate on any one issue. If the conversation turns to raging and ranting, it's in your best interests to stop it right away. Don't be afraid to step up and take a leadership role.

I have but one passion project...it does need focus, but timing is not rushed.  I just have to look to the week ahead as a "this too will pass" moment and just let life come to me. Hope I miss the "warring camps" moment... Fingers crossed.  Have a good Saturday.
