Lifted from katiebirdi and dusith:

Post 3 things you've done in your lifetime that you don't think anybody else on your friends list has done.
* See if anybody else responds with "I've done that."
* Have your friends cut & paste this into their journal to see what unique things they've done in their life.

In other news....getting everso psyched for AHO
I went over some registration stuff with Morwen today, and it sounds like its going to be an excetionally juicy and fun group! My monkey will be coming with me, hopefully to find her place in the burgeoning tribe of teens in our community.

It should rock.....film at 11.

Yesterday, my rapidly blooming daughter became a high-schooler. She crossed the threshold of her middle school for the last time as an attendee, and walked out into the bright sun with her giggling gaggle of girlies.

The whole idea of it all has me waxing a little Hallmark.......I was on the edge of tears for the whole ceremony...we have been through so much in the past 14 years, and I am feeling my remaining time with her is relatively short. Time. What a bitch.

( wanna see a pic? )
This Is Haley and her best friend since kindergarden, Kelsey. They have grown into such beautiful women. I remember when they used to throw tea parties in the sandbox. Sigh.

I have the best friends in the world.

They kick ass.

You are destined for a life of travel and fun. Your strength: Your likeability Your weakness: You never feel satisfied Your power color: Bright yellow Your power symbol: Asterisk Your power month: May

After picking daffodils in my garden this morning, I just noticed my first tick of the season climbing up my arm.

Now I've got the usual post-tick skeevies.....will someone come over and check me for ticks???

does anyone out there Twitter™?

Heads up, you freaks......

The cosmos aligns itself into some seriously juicy configurations over the next couple of days, freeing you to manifest with greater intensity -- ride this wave to your highest visions!!!!!

* On April 17, communicative Mercury enters practical and down-to-earth Taurus, forming a Grand Trine on April 18 with Pluto and Saturn.
* Then, expressive Sun follows Mercury into Taurus, on April 19, immediately enhancing the beneficial grand trine on April 20 and 21, with hard-working Saturn in Virgo and intense Pluto in achievement-oriented Capricorn.

A grand trine occurs when you have three celestial bodies that are all separated by a span of 120-degrees. Trines favor focus on high ideals, insight, vision, creative expression and well-being. Grand trines specifically promote self-confidence, self-assurance, optimism, expectation, a sense of pleasure, an easy flow of energy, inspiration, expansion of creativity and a sense of inner hope and faith.

Because this trine is happening in earth signs, expect people with valuable advice and experience to come out of the woodwork. These people will help you accomplish your aims -- You can do more now to make your life secure and stable than you have for a long time.


What will YOU do with this opportunity????
do tell.

If you respond to this post, I will respond in kind, and tell you exactly why I love you.
