Day Before Dark Moon

Pluto, Saturn, Neptune Retrograde

Cloudy and warm

There’s a quick post over on Ink-Dipped Advice about taking the holiday. If you missed the previous post, about What Kind of Growth is Right for Your Work? you can read it by clicking the title of the post.

Yesterday wound up being a little more haphazard than I would like, dealing with some personal stuff, and waiting for an answer on something. The wait was stressful, but the answer was positive, and we can move forward.

Because I was stressed and didn’t feel particularly creative, I did client work first. I turned around two coverages, and was done in the early afternoon. Then I had some time to putter and do stuff around the house before heading out to the farm to pick up the CSA box.

I was frustrated that I hadn’t gotten enough done until I realized I’d edited 15K during laundry time, which isn’t too shabby.

The CSA box was wonderful, all stuff we love, including more Bok choy and carrots! Plus lemon basil, which is pretty much my favorite thing from that farm. My own lemon basil is growing well, and I can harvest that soon, too.

Put that all away and headed out to yoga. I only did the hour of gentle yoga, because I had show stuff to deal with this evening.

Found out that there’s a pop-up Vietnamese restaurant on Main St. for the summer. Excited to try it this weekend. Love a good banh-mi and Vietnamese iced coffee!

Gentle yoga was great. Picked up takeout on the way home. Did show stuff, and then just had a little bit of rest.

Slept through the night (love gentle yoga for that). Up early, finishing my homework for today’s financial workshop. I have to do a library run (it’s closed from tomorrow through Monday) and a quick grocery shop for tomorrow’s goodies. I only have one coverage to turn around today, which I’ll do in the morning, because of the workshop in the afternoon, and then tarot. I may or may not stop at open studios as MASSMoCA on my way home; I have to see how the afternoon plays out.

This is the day before the dark moon, which tends to be a low energy day for me.

I find it ironic that our democracy is being destroyed, and Independence Day this year falls on the dark moon. There is no “high road” when dealing with this corruption.

On that happy thought (cough, cough), have a good one!
