Prayers

A dear friend of mine is in the hospital and is in critical condition. He is paralyzed from the waist down due to an infection in his spine. The infection resulted from an infection in his tooth/teeth.

Please say a prayer, keep him in your thoughts, healing energy, whatever you mode of spirituality is.

Thank you

Croning Ceremony

I am PROUD to say I was a part of my friend Robyn's croning ceremony. Even though we both live on separate ends of the earth, it was an honor to be a part of the ceremony. And an honor to have her as a friend. I hope to someday, hopefully in this lifetime, to meet her in person.

I lift my glass to Robyn!

Dinner

Went to dinner last night with some of my friends. We used to all work together. Catching up and celebrating my new marriage for those who could not make it. Here is a photo (I am the blond with glasses):



Will post more later. I have some soul searching to do, thanks to Mich's blog:

On this Full Moon it is important to recognize the fundamental relationship between gratefulness and non-attachment. Use this Full Moon to look at what you cling to and your fear of letting it go. Do you spend most of your time grabbing and craving for more things; trying to fill your inner emptiness with a multitude of possessions? We come here with nothing and leave with nothing. Why then do we hold so tight to things that will not last? This is a great time to ask, "What can I freely give away? What can I share?"

Breakfast

We went out to breakfast today with current and former co-workers from my place of employment. The Princess brought the Pea with her. She is getting sooo big and so cute! The Republican was there with the news that his wife is pregnant! Due in March.
Pattycakes showed up, even though her dad is very ill. Bad Janet of course was there, SuzieQ, Mrs. Executive and us. This will probably be the last time Bad Janet and I will see The Republican, SuzieQ, and The Princess. Definitly me. Bad Janet is going to Austin too the middle of September. Mrs Executive and Pattycakes still work in the same place a we do.

It was fun and we took a bunch of photos of our little "family" as we like to call it. At Mrs. Executives wedding, 2 years ago, we had a "family" photo taken with her.

Finally, sun today and this afternoon a cloudless sky. Mrs. Executives brand new house was hit by a microburst this past week. She said the pressure was so great it sucked the attic door into the attic.! She was home and thank heavens is OK. One of their PLASTIC lawn chairs was blown into a neighbors house and it made a hole in the siding. Not too many other houses were affected, which is why they think it was a microburst.

Off to finish my wine, read my current issue of Circle Sanctuary and relax.
