June 24th - July 17th

 

I don't know why this time period tends to slip by unrecorded in my life.  This year I've made a real effort and even it was catch as catch can.  I don't remember this as being a particularly busy time normally but something makes it come and go too rapidly to take note

 

July 1st

Libra (Sep. 22-Oct. 23)

The world of possibilities that opened up so recently is still open, and it is still inviting you to explore. The most important message I believe you will take from this season is that the world is your home. This is an enlightened view, and it will lead you to an enlightened way of being. There remain certain matters of what I will call marital influence that seem to bind you to old ideas about what you can and cannot do in your own space, and what you can and cannot do in the world. Spend a lot of time outdoors and you will feel better.

 

July 2nd - Perigee occurred  at 4:00 p.m. PDT (about 12 hours before the full moon)  One of the effects of this is higher tides.  I'm not sure that really pertains to Lake Washington but I was amazed at the water level and the waves when the boy and I went for a walk.

July 4th - Quite day - Did some shopping and then I was doing a web search on something and one page lead me to this.  It's based on my choices of colors though it wasn't possible to link colors to the text people.  The interesting thing is that is seemed pretty dead on.

July 5th - Did the barbecue thing today rather than yesterday.  Much better choice based on weather  Had our friends over and spent a nice afternoon before we needed to get hubby on the plane and headed back down to California.  Only one more week of this.  I'm sorry to loss the contract but I can't wait to have my husband home.

July 6th - had the weekly writers group meeting.  Was too busy to really do it, but the only way this kind of group works is if the commitment is unwavering.

July 7th - Was able to get my hairdressers appointment moved up a day so I won't look like death warmed over on these trips.  I have the greatest hairdresser in the world.  Not only is he talented but we share a background in finance and a similar view of the world.  One of the great truths is we attract our own kind (this is a good thing not a bad thing -- we all need support in doing the great work and it can come from many sources)

July 8th - off on another trip to Colorado.  I've been elected to a board position and this will be our first meeting

July 9-10th.  Strange meeting.  Turned out none of the new board members showed.  I'm wondering what I've gotten myself into.

July 11th - early flight home.  Run some errands and then make sure I'm reading to go to the east coast on Tues.

July 12th

.  Don't know what I did but I know I was busy doing it.

A Bobcat stopped by the house to pay us a call.  I've never seen a wild bobcat in my life and certainly not one in my backyard.  The Clancy was of course already checked into the Pet resort for the start of his vacation so that might have been part of it.

I believe the message from the bobcat was listen to what isn't being said. -- I have always had a strong ability to carry one a conversation at two levels and I think this is bobcat medicine.

July 13th - its a long flight cross country and I worked on all it.

July 14th - Spent the day preparing for the dog and pony that we're holding at a very posh restaurant in Beantown.  Everyone said it went well but I have my doubts that it was clear enough to sell anything.

July 15th  - Needed to get a proposal finished for a client.  Worked for almost 16 hours straight.  Glad my family is so understanding.  Normally I have more time to socialize when I'm on the east coast.

July 16th

- Had a disappointing meeting with a prospective partner (remember I have Mars doing a transit through my 7th house so aggressively pursuing business partners is what I'm suppose to be doing) .  Bottom line was we weren't able to reach any agreement.  I like them but I don't think they're going to be staying in business very long.  Definitively not hungry enough

Decided to fly home today.  Simply too exhausted to do anything else.  Not a great flight (the airline decided that serving wine is now against their policy).  Actually the true story is that they only put on a total of 60 bottles of wine per flight and I was in row 15 and I purchased the last bottle.  I don't have a drinking problem but I was tied and stressed and was looking forward to a glass of wine with the terrible excuse for a meal the airlines serve. 

July 17th  - My goal was to do nothing.  Of course nothing included driving 60 miles round trip to pick up the dog.  Grocery shopping, picking up buttons to mend a dress and going to the bakery and Starbucks to buy buy another pound of coffee.  Then I came home and watched reruns of Crossing Jordon.

Completely spaced the new moon and the fact that it's the end of my 6th house.
