Something in the air/stars/planets tonight???

[elleng]

Several unpleasant and unusual events/communications have happened 'to me,' and wondering about the confluence. Anything???

[TreasonousBastard]

1. Meteor shower?

[elleng]

2. Dunno, looks a little early,

Perseid's due Aug 11-13, and I suspect they don't have such power but I could be wrong.

[TreasonousBastard]

3. Already had a fireball or two, but it's been cloudy around here at night...

As meteors go, the Perseids often out on the best show.

[elleng]

4. Thanks for reminding me that I should try to be at my cottage then!

Haven't moved in yet, but maybe I'll try for my first overnight!

7. All THAT for $1200! Around here you get the closet...

[elleng]

8. I'm amazed too!!!

Its quite out of the way, and old, nothing fancy (or new) at all, but LOCATION!!!

[OneGrassRoot]

9. My goodness, that is FABULOUS!!!

Good for you!!!!

[elleng]

10. Thanks, OGR!

Part of the impetus to get stuff out of DC apartment. Rent there is significantly HIGHER and my obligation, of course (among other things.)

Going to visit cottage today, check things out, say hi to the sun (and critters!) there, bring toothbrush, see if painter's been there, and wonder when it will be ready for me 'full-time.'

All DUers are invited to visit, so think about it!!!

11. If I attend the 50th anniversary march later this month in DC...

it will likely be a last-minute, spur of the moment thing, and hotel rooms may be scarce.

I was hoping to attend as my own 50th b-day celebration, but now I'm not sure I can go, but I sure would love to visit there soon to see your lovely cottage and surrounds, and to see YOU!!!

More pics soon, please!

[elleng]

12. Would be great to see you, OGR,

if you get to the area. As cottage is 60+ miles from DC its not the ideal place for a DC event, but might be able to offer you a room with a bed at friend's town-house on metro-rail line outside of Silver Spring, MD. I stay there (here, actually) much/most of the time.

IF you come we'd do cottage visit, and as the whole situation there is in flux (painter supposed to be there some time soon, like maybe next week,) as is schedule dealing w husb's apartment (and daughters,) my 'schedule' isn't a schedule!

As to more pics, I have to get a real camera, which is one of my first tasks, as only have pics on my little cell. Will text you those if you p.m. me your phone #, but warning, my txt pics leave MUCH to be desired!

13. I'm so pathetic, I don't have a phone that can receive images...lol

I hope to remedy that this month as well!!! LOL

That all sounds great. We'll stay in touch.

[elleng]

15. HAHAHA! Thought I was pathetic!

Have a little wimpy cell phone, don't want one of the others, and took me ? years to learn how to take pics with it!

Yes, keep in touch!

[japple]

21. HA HA HA HA!!! You two crack me up. I've only be able to take

pictures of the inside of my pockets and the lining of my purse! Takes me 15 minutes to type a text msg. on my flip phone. Gonna get technology one of these days!

[elleng]

22. Yup, got a pic of inside of my purse today, japple!!!

[glinda]

17. That is lovely!

[elleng]

18. Thanks, was lovely today

but HOT! Previous tenants left Monday, a.c. turned off, I went today to check things out (before 'moving in,' which will be after painting in couple weeks,) turned a.c. on, and hope to buy lounge chairs for porch so I can sit outside with view of the river!

5. I am in a perfectly horrible mood

and it seems as though I am not alone......and there is no real explanation for it. I am just as tired as I usually am, and just as overbooked. So, I was wondering the same thing myself.

[elleng]

6. I was FINE until heard from a family member,

roiling things up unnecessarily as she usually does, and my obligation to try to 'solve' or at least address continuing issue. And then heard some undue reactions to some public news from 'friends.' And then some DU posts, not unusual but unpleasant subject.

Would be nice if I could go to sleep, but somehow I doubt it, in the short run.

Sorry you're in a horrible mood, Tumbulu.

[Tumbulu]

14. I am much better today

and hope things are better for you as well!

[elleng]

16. Good, glad you're better.

Underlying issue still hanging around, but as have more than 1 family member, and the others are FINE, w themselves and w me, I'm better too.

Just returned from visit to cottage, so smiling!

[Tumbulu]

19. Oh my goodness, I love the cottage!

I am so happy that you will be enjoying it!

[elleng]

20. Thanks, Tumbulu.

23. That's weird-I had some bad job related news the 8th

No sense it was coming, caught me off guard. My morning was great, and got a hefty tip, I was feeling so blessed-and maybe that is why I got the tip, to help balance out the sudden potentially financially impacting news (which can be looked at with a silver lining, as I've been trying).

[elleng]

24. Glad you got the tip,

and you're trying to see the silver lining.
Best

25. With the July 29 stargate, co-creation has significantly increased.

Irresponsibility is being forced to face itself (for purposes of understanding and changing course...and changing course to the positive is easier than ever when one is willing, and the pain of resisting the Shift can present enough pain to convince one to become willing).

Not saying this is what is occurring with the OP, but this is the general case. The old is being purified ever more powerfully. If something is in your life, ask yourself why you want it there, and listen for the answers. (Again, this is general and not specifically replying to the OP.)
