“Today is a day for celebration, dear Capricorn. There is a positive, loving energy in the air. Don’t hesitate to open a bottle of champagne tonight simply in thanks of being alive. And if you really think about it, there is no shortage of reasons for throwing a get-together or party. Don’t hesitate to surround yourself with the people that you love the most in the world and sharing this wonderful warm energy with them.” – if todays horoscope reflected anything I could wrap my head around I would be satisfied.
My stress level is way up there and yesterday was a day I could have skipped… not that it was awful but man I wish I could feel like I was on the right path in life.
An interesting turn of events… I ended up with another mouth to feed and an attitude to deal with having picked up a stray beasty.
He can’t stay, but I put a notice on CraigsList that I had him and walked around hoping someone would recognize him… bottom line I still have him. He’s young and perky, maybe 2 or 3 years old, and cute. He needed training and I started working with him a little and he’s picking stuff up. My temporary name for him is Pixel.

I took some pictures off my camera that I left there and found the ones of my car. When I was loading it in Portland to move back down last month, it became damaged in areas that aren’t especially visible.
The scoopy nosey thing on the car got all scraped and dented… ugh! I was too much in a hurry and frazzled to get too upset back there. I figured it out and got it on the trailers and just got my ass moving. Then, there is a guard on the bottom that got seriously bent and wedged into a thing on the trailer… so when I changed the position of the trailer I could move it and load is safely. What a pain in the butt.
My gas mileage was almost 1/3 better up there – ya know that? I was impressed. My oil life was strongly extended as well, unless there is something wrong with the car? And speaking of which… my Toaster (nickname for my car; a silver 2007 Honda Element) is suffering at my hand! A rock flew off one of those big trucked and dented my front bumper. Someone hit my car with their hand or something and put a dent in the back. Ugh, this is a great car and I’m a bad bad bad owner.
Speaking of which, I had to take Tom to his Ophthalmologist (yes, he has his own) and his left eye was really swollen. He’s on a bunch of meds and I hope this takes care of it. His Glaucoma flared up just after we moved to Oregon. Ugh! Looks like I’m not so good at taking care of things.
