I’ve been an irrepressible joke-maker today… after a friend commented on it, I of course joked that I should go read my horoscope.

Friday Time Clock #2
Over at The Fluent Self, Havi has a weekly ritual that has become known as the Friday Chicken, a little check-in moment that started about a year ago. After years in the kitchen, and because we’re all about the march of time here, the idea of punching a time clock seemed like a good mental [...]
Uranus in the 4th: Here Comes the Moving Van… Again

Many Happy Returns…
Happy solar return to me (yay!), and back to writing here also. I, like so many of you, have been just walloped by some recent mega-transits, and I’m still trying to sort out the wreckage, to wit: an unexpected cross-continent relocation new (old) day job relationship upheaval standard-issue existential crisis that accompanies these things There [...]
