Someone sent me this by e-mail and I have no idea
what paper it came from, but thank you, Norma
White for writing much good sense and having the
intestinal fortitude to send it to a newspaper. And to
the newspaper for printing it.

Here's how I feel about the congress mess;  we
could limit to two terms if we could stop paying them
such high pensions.  Can you imagine how many
more pensions we'd be paying if we'd retire them all
off after two years?

I do believe we should adopt some other  country's
law about children being born in our country still
being citizens of their home country; not ours. I
realize that is a constitutional law of ours, but it
needs changing.

I don't believe that congress is interested in
changing anything either.  They live on a bed of
roses.  

Fairly soon there will be three classes of people in
this country;  Ultra rich, congress, and the poor!

I've finished The Divine Matrix by Gregg Braden. There is a lot of meat to this book and I'll have to read it again
to understand better.  

Today is family day and we're all getting together to celebrate my daughter Carol's birthday. It looks like it's
going to be a beautiful day.  Here's one of Carol's pictures. Of course she's Scorpio and
has Cardinal rising; see the Cardinal chin? She's such a great person, if I do say so...
Tuesday Nov 18, 2008. Had a great time out in Walton County visiting Carol on her
birthday Sunday.  We went to see these wonderful little cottages built by people who
donate their time and ability for the Children's Volunteer Health Network, Inc. who
facilitate free medical, dental and mental health services to children whose families
cannot afford healthcare and live in the Okaloosa/Walton counties.

The little cottages they build are displayed on the city square for three weeks and then
auctioned off to the highest bidder.  They make great playhouses.  You can see them
on
cottagesforkids.org
When you look up the website, note the Yin Yang Garden Cottage.  All that bamboo you
see in the front came from my yard!  Some great folks came to cut it down and load it
on a huge flatbed truck; a humongous job!

Thurs; Nov 20, 2008.  
Ok, deep breath, I've let go of all the hurtful things I've read over the past few days.  For
some reason, they were getting to me.  I got a massage yesterday and it hurt like hell because of all the things I
was keeping inside and the fear building up in me. I can't understand how some people live like that all the
time. It is so important for me to meet fear and anger with faith, love, and patience. I don't have to wallow with
them, nor do I have to placate them with platitudes. I don't have to preach, teach or DO anything. I simply have
to BE what I am at my best. Now, if I can just remember that.

Later today: You won't believe this!!!  Len and I went to Ruby Tuesday's for lunch today and while we were
stopped at the stop sign to turn in he said to me,

"You know, I think Barack Obama's
the one for the job.  You predicted it  two years ago and were right all
along.  I'm glad he's going to be president! "

I almost forgot to turn into Ruby Tuesdays.  He said, "the one!" And, he said I was RIGHT!  I don't believe it!

Note my intention for the Scorpio new Moon in my Lunar Journal I below.

Thanksgiving week...The new Moon occurs on Thanksgiving. Wow, what a trip since
the last new Moon in Scorpio on October 28th! We've elected a new President, gone broke, and bailed out
near-criminal CEOs. How's that for Scorpio? With every good thing comes a couple of stings!

Anyway, I received a survey from Obama's camp and one of the questions was something like, "What situation
would you like to be addressed when Barack Obama is president?"  I gave some silly ass answer like, "I'll
leave that up to President Obama and his advisors." Blah, Blah, Blah.  Right after that I saw this on the internet
and I agree with most of it.
Wednesday; November 26, 2008.  Something strange happened to me tonight.  I had put up Seal's
Change is Gonna Come video up on my index page and when I clicked it, it read, this video not available any
more. So, I went to youtube.com and it was available.

Something felt rejected inside of me; I immediately wondered if the video was taken off my site because it's
an astrological site. Now, I'm really getting too old to feel rejected and paranoid.  I have everything I want or
need in life.  I'm very well educated, generous, and fun to be with sometimes.  I just realized I've felt hurt at
times when others have ridiculed or belittled me because of my profession.  And I realized that hurt is still
there even though I've said many times that I don't give a durn what people think (among other things
concerning those that judge and ridicule).

Well, for pete's sake; there's always sumthin' we have to work on, isn't there?  I guess I have to work on that
hurt feeling.  I really am proud of all the work I've done in Astrology and other metaphysical endeavors over
the years, but never promoted myself or advertised.  I have a Scorpio Midheaven; that secretive lil daemon.  
Or, maybe I was afraid because of the possible judgment and ridicule?  I'll have to examine that more closely
in the next few days.  See you at the Sagittarius new Moon journal tomorrow.  Happy Thanksgiving.
