Today is the celebration of my oldest child's birthday. And I feel so grateful I get to celebrate it with him. Actually, he has to work today, but he's one of the lucky ones. Remote work for the last 4 years continued into the new job, so there's a silver lining for him. And us. It makes him able to go anywhere that he has a solid internet connection to work.
It's been lovely to have him here, lots of low key hanging together, watching lots of sports (he does daily sports betting; sure wish he'd become rich already!), met another one of his old friends, and we've been playing 500 a lot. Tonight we take him out to a new restaurant to celebrate. We'll be going to visit him early next month, and he's now looking for a new living situation: his own apartment. He's been living in communal situations since college, so it would be great for him to have his own place. It's time.
Today I'm going to try and get some writing done, do more collage and do some exercise. Replanting my garlic was taxing on this body that doesn't move enough. I really need self-care to be a cornerstone in 2024.
I'm also gearing up for another vision board exercise coming next week. Not sure I'll be able to do the first day live, since it will be the morning after my eye surgery and I learned that my eye dilation will probably last through the 2nd day. Time will tell. The thought of what I want my vision to be for 2024? It's sure got me doing a lot of thinking, dreaming, visioning what I want this new year to bring to me. What I want to manifest more than anything is good health for the happiness I want to exude. And monetary and creative success with my writing and art. And theatre? Hmmm...still not sure about what the future holds for that one for me. But overall, this needs to be the year of the major Vault spelunking and purging. Sell, donate, use in art - whatever. I need to get on with the "get out" mentality of releasing the Vault Goddess and the Imperial Man's possessions.
Now - let me go carpe the diem!
