Everything old is new again - right? Please? 2

New ideas that come to you via the Internet or a friend could keep you up late, contemplating your options for the future.

So it's late (for me) and I've been online for a while and even heard from an old friend and still have NO ideas about my future. I mean, I have the same old ideas I've been having - write a couple books, sell a couple million books - but nothing newer than that.

There's no longer a sufficient reason for you to surrender your power and attempt to please everyone at the cost of your own happiness. Let others know how you feel, even if the consequences of your declaration may be temporarily challenging.

Hmmm. I thought I was being discouraged from the selling opportunity that presented itself then suddenly - without warning - it popped back up as something I "should" be doing. But I really don't want to. I want to write. And I'd like to let "others" know how I feel, but instead I am letting the calls go to voicemail because I am a wuss. Do I have to let others know how I feel? Can't I just pretend to sell stuff for a while then pretend it didn't work out?

Thank you, I'll be here all week! 7

Look up the word 'glib' in the dictionary, and don't be surprised to see your picture there. Yes, your verbal skills will definitely be the stuff that legends are made of.

I don't know if I was glib or legendary today, but I was funny enough to make the cable guy nearly do a spit take.

It was a dark and stormy night ... no, it was a hot and sunny day and the cable guy showed up to see why my Internet and phone have been going off and on since Sunday. He had to get out a ladder and fix something on the lines outside then came back inside to make sure everything was working. I got him a glass of water because it was really hot out. As he was filling out the paper work he said, "I hope the next job goes this easy."

Me: Oh, this was easy?

CG: Oh yeah, I wish they were all like this.

Me: Good, I like being the easy one. At least when it comes to cable.

Cut to CG trying not to spit water all over the coffee table. Hee hee.

You have no messages (Thurs) 0

A message will arrive that confirms what you suspected, which will empower you to make final decisions that work in your best interests. The Aries Moon will deliver money from an unexpected source, which will take the pressure off after some recent careless spending.

No message today, not that I was home to get it. Took Daughter to the orthodontist in the morning, then we picked up some of the kids' friends and went to the zoo. It was a beautiful day. Got home all hot and sweaty and covered in melted snow cones, ate dinner and headed out to watch Husband play softball. Phone and Internet were out all afternoon and evening (at least while we were home), so unless someone was sending a message by carrier pigeon I wasn't going to get it. No money from an unexpected source - as usual - I'm really getting tired of that promise. Though my only "careless" spending lately was this morning when I splurged on a bottle of purple-black nail polish. I know, call me crazy!

I am waiting on a message; I have so many "if" projects and I just don't know which one to work on. Obviously I want to work on the one that's going to get me the fastest and most financially lucrative return.

So, Universe, what am I supposed to be doing? I'll accept yesterday's message today and won't even charge you a late fee.

Oh, and I'll take the money today too.
