Leave the beaten track behind occasionally and dive into the woods. Every time you do you will be certain to find something you have never seen before. Like living flame their faces seemed to glow. Their wings were gold. And all their bodies shone More dazzling white than any earthly show. I NOURISH AND CHERISH ALL NEW BEGINNINGS. Within every adversity lies a slumbering possibility.

++You need to make some more room in your life for just goofing off! Why not give yourself permission to follow your mood every once in a while? Daydreaming never hurt anyone, and it certainly won't slow you down long enough today to hold you back from making progress. It's not a waste of time to imagine what life would be like if things were different -- it's a good way to stay creative! You need to make sure that you have at least a couple hours of free time, today. The week will start off on a low note and you'll need to complete an unfinished project. You may have to put in some extra effort to make sure it gets done properly. Be careful of your health as you may be eating too much fast food and not getting enough exercise. You may not be feeling your usually active and adventurous self. Perhaps something you ate is making you feel ill. Take the afternoon off if you continue to feel bad. Your finances are relatively uneventful. Get some extra rest this evening to avoid any further problems.

 It was a fairly typical day at the scalehouse. I got most of the reports out without a lot of trouble. I heard nothing about wages or the job except Alan came up and they were laying out the new trailer. I guess they are going to put it behind the present building. I am not looking forward to the whole thing but at least it is better than some of their plans like using Wilbur Ellis. I guess that eventually Jerry and Michelle or some other secretary will share the place. They need to do some thinking when they design the scale part of it. I will miss my solitude. I got a email from MM that she had her ballot and was ready to vote. I answered back and have heard nothing yet. I sent the thank you off to Mandy. I have fasted all day since I weighed in at 173 this morning. I need to keep things below 170 if possible. I drank some ginger tea with a lemon drop. Not too bad. I called Mikey and he answered. He said he was playing a game. I could hear someone in the background. I don’t know whether it was Bird or someother adult. He said that report cards were coming out soon. I let him know I would like to see it – but whether I will or not is something else.
