The Cheese incident

The other day we were getting ready to go to Guy's game, and I had to go back inside for Pepto Bismal as my stomach was hurting! So while we were back in the house, I told Josie to grab some string cheese, even tho she didn't want any, so she would have it if she got hungry later. She grudgingly got it, and we got into the car and drove away. We were almost to the game when a client called me, so I pulled over and asked Josie for a pen so I could write his address down. The cheese was on top of her backpack, but she opened the backpack to find me a pen. Later, when we were on the road again, she said she couldn't find the cheese. So I had her look and look, but she couldn't find it. So I turned her backpack inside out, but we can't find it! So now I have some cheese somewhere in my car going bad. Just what I needed, right?

Meanwhile, I have to help S cancel his escrow. Not the Christmas present I was looking for. I really hoped he would build those houses, as he could (we both could) have made some good money on those. But I tried to take it as cheerfully as possible, hoping that something else may work out with him in the future.

Winter Solstice
I can't remember how we got onto the subject, but the other day I was pointing out that Dec. 21st is the Winter Solstice, which means it's the shortest day of the year. Then yesterday when it got dark, Josie was saying "Why is it dark so early today?" and things like that, when I finally got that she remembered. Yes, honey, it was the shortest day of the year. Now the days will start getting longer and sunnier - so I'm hoping the new year will bring me lots more luck and success and sun into my life too!


Anyway, today is the 22nd - 3 days before Christmas and I've taken a double shift at work - probably just a part of the quietest time of the year (in terms of Floor Time action). Well, I got 3 good leads today!

Leads are just leads and you never know, but as I said, I'm expecting some good luck soon...

Horoscope 12/23: Daily extended (by Astrology.com)
Improvements are in the stars, starting with your mood. Let your annoyances go and embrace all that's calm and bright; you're going to be welcoming some gifts of both the material kind and those you can't grasp but which are even more meaningful. At the same time, you can begin to let go of some old emotions that have outlived their usefulness and make room for what's fresh and new. It's all occasion for much rejoicing!
