September 21st is coming up... the Autumnal equinox. Harvest, setting things aside for the Winter, when they can grow again in the Spring. A time of balance. At least it comes after Mercury turned direct... this retrograde was perfectly awful!
Another birthday. Ho hum. Between the job situation and the health of my family, the only thing that occured on Monday that really cheered me up was the card from Randy. Almost cried when I saw it in the mailbox. What a sweetheart.
Been giving some thought to what I can do on the 21st to honor the season of balance and create some balance in my life. Goddess knows I need it.

Toward Mabon
My step-father's been diagnosed with lung cancer... apparently a very rare kind as well. I'm not sure if that's good or bad. Also, they've found a tumor marker in his liver. That's apparently not good. Guess I better start lining up airline reservations...
What would be ideal is to cover three long-distance traveling opportunities in one trip... Home for a visit, Neal's wedding, and the conference in Iceland. But without the bonus promised us from Pride... now several weeks overdue, and without a signed contract from the Love Parade, I can't consider the latter choice.
Going to get tools together for a ritual with the coming equinox, try to create some balance in my life.

Triple Threat
What a week... actually, what a year. But thankfully, Mercury is out of retrograde and had gone direct.
My father almost died, my previous roommate threatens to commit suicide and writes her kids emails then I have to move because she's psycho and nasty, my event bonus from the parade committee is now two months late, two of my friends die (at a very young age) of the same liver dysfunction, and my next project has suddenly gone quiet after pursuing me for weeks.
But just today I learned that my father's check is being held by the bank for 10 days -- bouncing everything, the cat escaped and stayed away for 8 hours, and now... I learn my step-father has lung cancer. Bad news comes in threes, they say.
Is there anything more you want to toss at me to test me?
